=== In sexually liberated societies, only women decide when sex occurs === | |||
Cohen and Shotland (1996) computed correlations between when people thought sex should start and when they actually began having sex. For the men, the correlation was not significant (r = .19), which implies they had no say, whereas for women the correlation was very high (r = .88). Moreover, women rarely initiate, and hence get to choose. Hence it is likely that women cause this pattern somewhat more than men. | |||

The fact that women get to choose result from the ''principle of least interest''. The party with the least interest gets to decide on nearly all conditions of a contract as the party with more interest has fewer alternative options that are as valuable to them and hence more likely makes compromises. This is also a cause of [[hypergamy]] as making compromises means dating down, which in turn implies that women date up. | |||
