Solution

Rules of Attraction

Over time, there have been constant changes in what women identify as attractive in potential mates. The main reason for this dynamism is the improvement of their social status relative to men; women now have more access to education and employment opportunities (Aronson et al., 2019). In this way, the characteristics that make women more interested in men are the material possessions and social statuses of their potential partners. Ideally, women are evolutionarily predisposed, to like men who are a bit older than them……………………To access the rest of the solution for $5, please click on the purchase button.
