The relationship women and men have when it comes to natural selection is that of teamwork.
Men's biology focuses more on the physical and mechanical motions. In this regard, they can detect what types of physical attributes are good for survival. Stronger bones, smarter, faster or big hips to successfully bare a child. Many more details but these are just some.
Women tend to focus on the emotions, character and conceptual part of humanity. If a man has a strong emotional constitution and a good character, she can knows that he is reliable yet capable of more than just mechanical motions.
Take for example a very big and tough man. This man is very shy and cowardly. He will not be able to use his strength very much. Take for example, also, a very skinny, small muscle and weak man but with a big and brave personality. Sure, he can accomplish a lot. However, he will take a lot longer to do it. He will also not be able to defend anyone very well and might not be very useful with anything physical. Although, he will try.
So how does it apply to sex?
Well lets take what we commonly attribute to sexual requirements.
Looks, money, big penis, social skills, social connections are some.
Looks: The way your face looks communicates an emotional/personal quality to women. Faces can communicate -- romance, confidence, daring, profundity, love, determination and so forth.
When men look at it, they only see that the face is symmetrical but our ability to determine its emotional quality is superseded by our evolutionary ability to wire healthy and symmetrical human outlines as a quality of mating.
Money- Women want to feel safe. A man that has money communicates that he has the mental requirements or social connections/skills to obtain this wealth. In having money, a woman will have a certain feeling of safety. There are many factors that play into all of these. Such as if he is rich but has a mild and needy attitude communicates something negative, however, the money is real.
Big penis- Similar to good looks. The trend is, anyone with a big penis is more confident. Since generation 1 or 2, men have always seen the penis as a status symbol (reference from certain sources). Thus a man with a big penis is likely to be more confident. The reasoning behind this being a status symbol is because men are physical.
The vaginal opening isn't much wider than one inch side to side. 4 inches in. The physical aspect of this isn't what gets women off in sex. It is something I call sexual tone.
Sexual tone is the context of events leading up to sex. Lets take a big, muscular and confident man and a skinny, artistic/stylish man. Both attract women but both make two different sexual tones to women.
Another example: Take a short, not very good looking, fat and balding woman. Now pit her against an attractive actor. The balding woman might very well be attracted to this actor if they met.
If they have sex, the sexual tone for the woman would be that she is very low in gene quality and is getting a good gene and that she is lucky.
Sexual tone for a strong attractive man and an attractive women is she is upgrading genes.
Sexual tone for artist is strong emotional sex and desires.
Sexual tone for player is, danger and excitement
etc.
So this outlines the bulk of what I analyze the game of sex to be.
What do you think? I can provide sources.
o.O
i have a theory about who enjoys sex more. The answer is, it's both and neither.
The individual is the one who enjoys it more. It's the same as a person who doesn't enjoy wine and one who does. The way he/she mentally tunes into the enjoyment determines how many nerves the person uses in it's experience.
report me
I have a girlfriend. So.. take your fail somewhere else.
Truthsee
Other scientists haven't postulated this. At least not putting it together like this. All of this is known but in different contexts. Such as the study of the animal kingdom and also the study of the human mating system.
What I haven't come across was the connection between the two gender's mental functions and mating behavior.
Also, what does literature have to do with science?
Also, I didn't waste my time. Writing this down is sort of practice for when I write research papers next year.
Report me
I'll put up a pic of me so you can see if I'm really a skinny nerd.

Sorry but I think the only thing this would do is put women to sleep. I didn't read your analysis but soimething that's fun, passionate and exciting you've made a page of analysis for?
There is no analysis, just you get turned on, you have sex and ahhh you feel good :)

Which of the following statements reflects aspects of Hutton and Lyell's ideas of gradualism that were incorporated into Darwin's theory of evolution?
There is a struggle in populations for survival and reproduction.
Natural selection acts on heritable variation.
Small changes accumulated over vast spans of time can produce dramatic results.
Characteristics acquired gradually over an organism's lifetime can lead to changes in the characteristics of the next generation.
Homologous structures are found in organisms with a common ancestor.
2 . Which of the following is not an observation or inference on which natural selection is based?
There is heritable variation among individuals.
Poorly adapted individuals never produce offspring.
There is a struggle for limited resources, and only a fraction of offspring survive.
Individuals whose characteristics are best suited to the environment generally leave more offspring than those whose characteristics are less well suited.
Organisms interact with their environments.
3 . Analysis of forelimb anatomy of humans, bats, and whales shows that humans and bats have fairly similar skeletal structures, while whales have diverged considerably in the shapes and proportions of their bones. However, analysis of several genes in these species suggests that all three diverged from a common ancestor at about the same time. Which of the following is the best explanation for these data?
Humans and bats evolved by natural selection, and whales evolved by Lamarckian mechanisms.
Evolution of human and bat forelimbs was adaptive, but not for whales.
Natural selection in an aquatic environment resulted in significant changes to whale forelimb anatomy.
Genes mutate more rapidly in whales than in humans or bats.
Whales are not properly defined as mammals.
4 . Which of the following observations helped Darwin shape his concept of descent with modification?
Species diversity declines as distance from the equator increases.
Fewer species are found living on islands than on the nearest continents.
Birds can be found on islands that are farther from the mainland than the birds' maximum nonstop flight distance.
South American temperate plants are more similar to the tropical plants of South America than to the temperate plants of Europe.
Earthquakes reshape life by causing mass extinctions.
5 . Darwin synthesized information from several sources in developing his theory of evolution by natural selection. Which of the following did not influence his thinking?
Linnaeus' hierarchical classification of species
Lyell's Principles of Geology
observations of molecular homologies
examples of major changes in domesticated species produced by artificial selection
the distribution of species that he observed on the Galápagos Islands and during his journey around South America
6 . In science, the term theory generally applies to an idea that
is a speculation lacking supportive observations or experiments.
attempts to explain many related phenomena.
is synonymous with what biologists mean by a hypothesis.
is considered a law of nature.
all of the above.
7 . Within a few weeks of treatment with the drug 3TC, a patient's HIV population consists entirely of 3TC-resistant viruses. How can this result best be explained?
HIV has the ability to change its surface proteins and resist vaccines.
The patient must have become reinfected with 3TC-resistant viruses.
HIV began making drug-resistant versions of reverse transcriptase in response to the drug.
A few drug-resistant viruses were present at the start of treatment, and natural selection increased their frequency.
The drug caused the HIV RNA to change.
8 . The smallest biological unit that can evolve over time is
a cell.
an individual organism.
a population.
a species.
an ecosystem.
9 . Which of the following ideas is common to both Darwin's and Lamarck's theories of evolution?
Adaptation results from differential reproductive success.
Evolution drives organisms to greater and greater complexity.
Evolutionary adaptation results from interactions between organisms and their environments.
Adaptation results from the use and disuse of anatomical structures.
The fossil record supports the view that species are fixed.
10 . Which of the following pairs of structures is least likely to represent homology?
the wings of a bat and the forelimbs of a human
the hemoglobin of a baboon and that of a gorilla
the mitochondria of a plant and those of an animal
the wings of a bird and those of an insect
the brain of a cat and that of a dog
Sorry buddy, I am not doing your homework for you.
1.Give examples of Ralph’s concept of how the boys should behave in order to survive on the island.
2.Give examples of the boys’ responses to Ralph’s survival plan.Does anyone disagree?Do they seem to be following Ralph's advice?(Consider applying these words in your analysis: order, obedience, rules, responsibility, fear, chaos, security, destruction.)
3.Identify 3 effective uses of imagery (especially similes, action verbs, and specific nouns which help you see, feel, hear, smell, or taste) which describe fire on pg. 44 (at NetLibrary: 35) .List specific words and phrases.
4.What is the significance of the boy with the mulberry mark on his face? What happens to him? He is mentioned on pg. 35, paragraph 7 and pg. 46, the last paragraph (at NetLibrary: 27, paragraph 6 & 38, paragraph 4).
1.) ralph thinks order is what will contribute to the survival of the boys.
2.) many of the boys responded positively at first but then things escalated into dangerous territory ie. jack threatening ralph all the time and then the death of piggy
3.) the heat, smokey taste, and the colors of the flame (sorry these are bad examples)
4.) the boy with the mark is basically a nobody and no one notices him, just like how the world does not notice the boys are missing. he falls into the fire when ralph ordered the boys to make the signal
