Re: "Sexual selection vs mate choice

What other "selective forces" are there then besides sexual selection?

Meteors, parasites, murderers, falling trees, floods, infections, droughts, wild dogs, planetary wobbles, bad teeth, lions, tigers and bears.

Through sexual selection, men made Venus, women made Mars.

What power!

Real things always push back.
