It turned out that women are not more important for women, but smart and compassionate partners. Psychologists from Nottingham University (United Kingdom) conducted an interesting experiment that revealed the mechanisms of the so -called "sexual selection". It is usually believed that women choose the strongest men, but the study showed another.
Scientists conducted a series of experiments that put the participants before choosing: to help the victim of injustice, to punish the culprit or to leave the case unattended. If a man was in a situation where he was watched by a woman who likes, he more often preferred to help the victim of injustice. In the same context, but without an attractive woman nearby, his choice could be different.
The women themselves, the participants of the experiment, showed greater sympathy for men who showed sympathy. It happened because of their consciousness that they would like it. Those who chose the punishment of the culprit or inaction were "lost".
Scientists have explained that society is based on cooperation, and therefore preference is given to those who are ready to help others. This is a long -standing trend: not only aggression and strength, but also readiness for cooperation and the ability to empathize.
Therefore, not strong and aggressive men receive an advantage, but those who show the "soft side". This is due to the fact that in the presence of an attractive woman, men chose a variant that would like her and contribute to her location. Thus, "brutality" was quite optional.
