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.
