Contrary to common dating advice emphasizing soul matching and deep intimacy, the result suggests that, on average, a high degree of familiarity is actually ''detrimental'' to relationship stability because the woman gets bored, possibly due to the man opening up, revealing his flaws which is a [[dominance hierarchy|low status]] signal.

Paradoxically, women's seemingly inferior ability for long-term pair bonding compared to men, contradicts women's otherwise more [[life history|k-selected]] sexual nature. In particular, women are more choosy in mate choice and [[sex drive|wait longer]] before engaging in sex which is indicative of high parental investment and may be explained by women's higher [[Bateman's principle|parental investment]] and [[Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Women_were_historically_predominantly_involved_in_cooking_and_they_never_dominated_men|resource dependence]]. However, losing sexual interest in their current mate more quickly is indicative of low long-term parental investment, i.e. more r-selected behavior that would be more adaptive in mild ecologies like the tropicals. A number of potential explanations could be provided for women's faster decline in sexual interest:

* Women's sexuality may be stuck in a more r-selected past because they have been subject to less selective pressure, having had a higher [[reproductive success]] throughout human history.

The results of this study have since been replicated by two longitudinal studies performed by McNulty et.al (2019). They found that controlling for the effects of childbirth, post-natal depression and stress, the length of the marriage was still a predictor of lower female [[libido]], but not male libido, which remained constant.

, and their maximal reproductive rate is much slower. Women's desire to liberate themselves from their partner is highly incompatible with the demands of modern civilization, and may in fact be an artifact of a past in which low investment, fast life history strategies were more useful, and women may have retained this sexuality more than men as they have overall been subject to less selective pressures, i.e. they had higher [[reproductive success]] due to men's higher [[sex drive]] and lower choosiness.
