Kindle Notes & Highlights
From an evolutionary perspective, females are more reproductively valuable than males. After all, we can only carry one pregnancy at a time while men can spread their seed more freely. As a result, male mammals must “earn” female reproductive access by offering gifts. It’s certainly not unique to humans, although I would say sheep or cows rarely find themselves in this particular conundrum.
REF- And yet this biological strategy is still widely used by males not in actuality to have a baby per se… men just wanna get a pass for getting laid is what it is, without having to get anybody knocked up.
