There have been attempts to replicate this study in practice or theory, however all appear to have been non-naturalistic studies, unlike Hatfield and Clark, making them ultimately not interesting. They also vary in conclusions. There is agreement with Hatfield and Clark,<ref>https://interpersona.psychopen.eu/article/view/121/html</ref> while others point out the original study was about low-information sex invitations, or invitations where the man only disclosed they were human, or, "children of God", so to speak. I.e. they also hypothesize women will only accept casual sex invitations after vetting the social status or "sexual skill" of men, whereas men accept regardless, making women ultimately the [[sexual selector|sexual selectors]]. | There have been attempts to replicate this study in practice or theory, however all appear to have been non-naturalistic studies, unlike Hatfield and Clark, making them ultimately not interesting.

These results ''strongly'' imply women are the gatekeepers of sex<ref>https://assets.csom.umn.edu/assets/71503.pdf</ref> and hence decide over celibacy rates. | These results ''strongly'' imply women are the ''gatekeepers'' of sex<ref>https://assets.csom.umn.edu/assets/71503.pdf</ref> and hence decide over celibacy rates. | ||
