 As an example, to the extent that women, on average, value financial resources (i.e., economic capital) in their male partners more than sexual capital, and men value sexual capital more than economic capital in their female partners, so one may conclude that heterosexual women and men seek out distinctive capital portfolios that include a different, gendered balance of capitals.As sexual capital and related theories by Catherine Hakim have gained public exposure, there has been criticism from several researchers.The arguments have focused largely on how Hakim's theory disproportionately impact women, even though she considers it a universal theory.
