Status Evolution

A discussion on Dr. Rob Henderson's Lecture on Status. Evolutionary Basis: Status translates to access to resources, social alliances, and desirable mates, ultimately increasing the likelihood of passing on one's genes. Status Pursuit: "Men compete with one another to appeal to lots of women, and women compete, generally speaking, to be chosen by high quality men." "Women's preferences set the ground rules." - David Buss Competition: Contest (Male): Direct, confrontational competition for resources or mates. Scramble (Female): Solitary competition focused on self-improvement (rather than direct sabotage of rivals). Signaling: To convey underlying qualities(wealth, kindness, intelligence) which are not immediately apparent. Honest/Costly Signals hold more weight.
