Schmitt (2001) found that in terms of mating differences between
males and females. There seems not to be a significant difference
between the two . The differences are seemed to be found on a
small magnitude and any significant differences seem to be a direct
result of misleading research methodologies.

emerged, gender equality and economic development tended to
predict the magnitude of sex differences in sociosexuality (more
permissive).
