Professor Assad suggested that a cautious attitude toward sexual encounters has proven to be more reproductively advantageous to women than to men because the birth process is time-consuming. This suggestion best illustrates the logic of a(n) evolutionary theory of sexual behavior (option a).
The sexual tactics theory explains characteristics unique to each sex that offer evolutionary advantages and are so alluring to the other sex: Male social status confers a reproductive benefit because, in part because of females' physical frailty and the needs of pregnancy and childbirth, females favour males who exhibit qualities that signify their capacity to invest resources in their kids. As a result, low status males are much less likely to have successful pregnancies. In contrast, male mate selection heavily emphasises factors like youth as markers of fertility and childbearing capacities. Male social position is therefore less important to women, and women are generally less concerned with their own social status.
One of the most important opportunities for men to raise their social status is through their work. Males are therefore more career-focused and invest their resources in projects that will result in high-impact products and get them recognition at work, especially throughout mid-adulthood. Females prefer to affiliate with groups and concentrate on fostering interpersonal ties, whereas men are more concerned with social status and developing skills to further their careers.
