The Evolution Of Desire: Strategies of Human Mating Quotes

“Men are preoccupied with a woman's youth. Men want wives who are pretty, attractive, beautiful, gorgeous, comely, lovely, ravishing, and glamorous. Men seek attractive women as mates not simply for their reproductive value but also as signals of status to same sex competitors and to other potential mates. Although most men place a premium on beauty, it is clear that not all men succeed in satisfying their desires. Men who lack the status and resources that women want, for example, generally have the most difficult time attracting good looking young women and must settle for less than their ideal. Indeed, a man's occupational status seems to be the best predictor of the attractiveness of the woman he marries. Men who are in a position to get what they want often partners up with a young, attractive woman.”

“Se ha demostrado que el hombre que emplea la coerción para obtener relaciones sexuales manifiesta un conjunto específico de características. Suele ser agresivo con las mujeres, sostiene el mito de que en el fondo quieren ser violadas y presenta un perfil de personalidad marcado por la impulsividad, la agresividad y la hipervirilidad, combinados con un elevado grado de promiscuidad sexual. Los estudios sobre violadores demuestran asimismo que poseen una baja autoestima.”
