Since personality | The only male personality aspects that do seem to matter are dark personality traits such as psychopathy.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Personality</ref> Feminist [[Camille Paglia]] claimed that female coyness pretty much necessitates men to engage in some kind of rape, saying, "woman's flirtatious arts of self-concealment mean man's approach must take the form of rape."<ref>https://books.google.de/books?id=jpZmBuUoAf8C&pg=PT350&lpg=PT350</ref> This notion is corroborated by research by Eibl Eibesfeldt who concluded the male dominate/female surrender pattern in human sexuality may be a remnant of ancient courtship adaptations in which pair formation only succeeds when the male is able to [[mogging|dominate]] the female, a behavior that can be observed in many reptiles, birds, and mammals.<ref>Eibl-Eibesfeldt I. 1989. ''Pair Formation, Courtship, Sexual Love.'' In: ''Human Ethology.'' Rougtledge.

Since men's positive personality traits play no role in human courtship, the only kind of behavioral traits that may still matter during courtship are likely limited to "sub-personality" behavior such as smiling, facial expressiveness, [[neurotypical]]ity, artistic behavior etc., which may be [[Beauty#Beautiful_behavior|aesthetically]] selected by [[Fisherian runaway|runaway selection]], possibly in addition to selection for the purposes of social signaling. | |||
[[Autism|Autists]] are disadvantaged in this aspect as they have difficulties producing spontaneous and appropriate facial expressions and other social signals.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Autists_are_judged_as_awkward.2C_less_physically_attractive_and_less_approachable_within_seconds</ref> | [[Autism|Autists]] are disadvantaged in this aspect as they have difficulties producing spontaneous and appropriate facial expressions and other social signals.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Autists_are_judged_as_awkward.2C_less_physically_attractive_and_less_approachable_within_seconds</ref> | ||
