==We have looked at the role of evolutionary anthropology on human mating practices over the past two days, and we have looked at the theory that men look for young women who symbolize "fertility" who can deliver healthy offspring, and women supposedly look for "strong" men with resources who can protect them when they are vulnerable with babies. //**How true is that in the world you see around you?**// Is it possible that Lucas, rather than the football player, might get the cheerleader?
