Sperm competition theory offers additional insight into cultural variation in sexual behavior
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 28 (2):285-286 (2005)
Abstract
Schmitt recognized that research is needed to identify other factors associated with sex ratio and with sociosexuality that may explain cross-cultural variation in sexual behavior. One such factor may be the risk of sperm competition. Sperm competition theory may lead us to a more complete explanation of cultural variation in sexual behavior.Other Versions
