Bateman's Principle: Difference between revisions

'''Bateman's Principle''' is a principle in evolutionary biology which states that there is greater variance (or inequality) in reproductive success among men than there is among women.  Female [[hypergamy]] exaggerates this and makes it worse.  This is partially why men complain more than women do about access to sexual intimacy.  Studies have shown, and academics such as scholar [[Angela Nagle]] and sexologist [[Kirstin Spitznogle]] have argued that Bateman's Priniciple applies to modern humans as well.
