I genuinely appreciate your interest. I’m not selectively discriminating against you: note that you left your comments long after most commenters did – replying to comments was high priority to me then, but I have a lot of other things on my plate at the moment. I’ll reply when I get a chance.
I’m sorry fo the delay but I came across these articles accidentally through google and long after its date of publication. Not even knew this website until recently.
I guess you’re not interested in perform more analisys about mate choice, since you’re mathematician and I guess you were focused mainly on just developing statistical analysis of data.
Anyway speaking as someone with an education in evolutionary biology, I feel that it was needed a synthesis of descriptions of human mating systems. Quantifying the shape and strength of mating preferences is a vital component of the study of sexual selection and reproductive options, but the influence of experimental design on these estimates is unclear sometimes in most studies I’ve been reading.
It seems that I’ve been the only commentator who has not got reply from the author. Thank you very much.
