Geoffrey Miller's [[Fisherian runaway#Intelligence|''mating mind'' hypothesis]] of human intelligence states that higher cognition and much of human behavior may have evolved as "cognitive ornament" though [[Fisherian runaway|positive-feedback processes]] in sexual selection. Such runaway selection predicts not only exaggerated ornament, but also highly narrowed and exaggerated preference for such ornament. This may suggest the struggles high-functioning autists face may in part be rooted in social exclusion based on sexually selected preferences for highly specific modes of facial and emotional expressiveness in similar manner as humans superficially but strongly judge based on subtle cues of physical appearance despite them being largely unrelated to health and ability, i.e. this may be evidence of a ''few millimeters of emotional expressiveness'' and [[charisma]] in analogy to [[a few millimeters of bone]] that strongly decide about social and sexual exclusion.
