 | | In favor of the socio-structural interpretation, for example, could be the finding that in recent decades, with increased social and economic equality, sexes have become more alike in their mate preferences, although the convergence seems to be mostly due to men approaching women's standards (Buss et al., 2001). |
 | | Hence, the expected sex differences should be more likely to appear since men tend to relax their requirements in the context of short-term mating (e.g., Buss, 1994; for women’s perspective on short-term mating see Greilig and Buss, 2000). |
 | | Nevertheless, sex differences in the evaluation of strength and thinness could be interpreted as referring to male physical attractiveness, and therefore as evidence of women’s specific emphasis on mate’s physical attractiveness. |
