No it’s not, there are some things we absolutely know and this is not one of them. This kind of stuff is extremely complex, and there aren’t good ways to test hypotheses.
- jamesrcole 7y agoHere's some questions we can ask to help answer the question: - is this preference common to all known cultures? - is this preference found in other mammals, including our closest relatives? - if taller partners were selected for because they 'can offer greater protection to their partners and children from other men, and were likely to have been better providers of food and other resources throughout our evolutionary history' then are women with a higher fear of crime more likely to prefer physically formidable and dominant males? And do women who score lower on dominance show a stronger preference for taller men? https://m.phys.org/news/2018-06-women-sexual-tall-dominant-men.html https://m.phys.org/news/2018-06-women-sexual-tall-dominant-m...
