So basically, males are competing with and showing off to each other and not the females ? Is that a way of decreasing the other male's moral and his motivation to compete ?

I dont agree on the idea that sexual attraction between human beings is all about males competing for females who chooses one of them. How does she base that scientifically? She does'nt. Pretty serious flaw in her idea.

I'd say everything she says make sense and (subject to peer review) should be a valid modification of Darwinian theory. Well played.
