> in the absence of pair bonding [men] should be willing to mate with any female unless they expect to find a better female in the next few hours Are you sure they aren't? Craigslist "casual encounters" for the bay area had eight hundred m4w ads today, very few of which seem to have any criteria beyond "female" (in comparison, there are only a hundred w4m ads, and those are fairly selective). And I've seen some scary looking hookers out there who haven't quit for lack of customers. I think many men try to seem more successful or safer by acting more picky than they actually are.
