Lol, I got all excited. I thought I caught you and was stoked for my "gotcha!" moment. I scrolled up to the comment that I partially quote below KNOWING there was a major contradiction. Alas, I was wrong. Pair bonding with a good provider does not exclude cucking him and being choosey in a sea of available males does not exclude promiscuity. Dang it!
Hopefully I can come back at lunch and I'll get ya then. I'm at a disadvantage using my phone as I can only see about 20 words of what I'm composing at a time and navigating through the comments isn't easy. Despite that, I hope to power through because I'm having a good time. This is a fun discussion, so thanks.

Excerpt below just so you know what huge comment I thought I had you cornered with. 😉

The genetic differences between males and females are attributable largely to two simple facts. First, female eggs are very rare and precious (coming along at the rate of only one per month) while male sperm is cheap and plentiful (coming along at the rate of millions per hour). Second, energy is not unlimited in nature. Consequently, those genes that compel or induce people to spend large amounts of energy on things that don’t confer a reproductive advantage are generally selected against and disappear. By contrast, genes that compel or induce people to pursue activities that confer a reproductive advantage are obviously selected for.

Given that energy is not unlimited, the rare in nature generally doesn’t waste precious energy pursuing the plentiful. But the plentiful in nature generally does pursue and compete for the rare, and those among the plentiful who pursue and compete better have better reproductive success.

Thus, in nature, its generally the males (plentiful sperm) who pursue and compete (often unconsciously) for the females (rare eggs). Males who are better competitors, more innovative, more industrious, etc. have had slight greater reproductive success than those males who lacked these traits. Consequently, evolution has selected for exactly these traits in males.

By contrast, evolution has generally not selected females for aggression, competition, pursuit, ambition, etc., at least not to the same extent as males. Why? Because females need to complete for sperm about like they need to compete for air, which is to say virtually not at all under normal circumstances. Given that energy is limited in nature, it makes no sense for evolution to program females for such wasteful behaviors.
