性的選択のもう1つの例は、リスクを取る傾向です。男性が女性を感動させるために危険な行動をとるように圧力をかけていると感じた場合、彼は、他の男性との戦いの間に頭に鈍いトラウマなど、彼の認知能力を損なう可能性のある方法で自分自身を傷つける可能性が高くなります。
Another example of sexual selection can be a propensity for taking risks. If a male feels pressured to engage in risky behavior to impress a female, he is more likely to injure himself in a way that could impair his cognitive abilities, such as blunt force trauma to the head during a fight with another male.
