Does he slow down or speed up when you walk together? This study says, if he's into you.... he'll slow down and match your pace, ladies! But we already knew that, didn't we,

As a biologist interested in evolution, Wall-Scheffler has a theory to explain this behavior: it has to do with males in roving hunter-gatherer groups not wanting to push women to walk too fast, lest the females over-exert themselves and harm their fertility.

I walk even or a little behind her, so I can goose her cute little butt!

Hey, you asked, and I don't lie, so there it is. LOL

Aren't you afraid you'll harm her fertility?

There's merit there, but it would be difficult to prove. What often amuses me most however, is the contradiction between what the evolutionary evidence sometimes indicates, and what evolutions biggest proponents are willing to except. Take Darwinism, for example. All fine and dandy until we start to discuss Social Darwinism; a convenient disconnect.

One of my favorite evolutionary studies is one which sheds light on the gender discrimination of depression. According to evolutionary psychologists, depression in women very well may have developed as a form of social currency.

WHAT? Say that again!... Depressed women have currency? Who wants to be a depressed woman, and why would someone want one? You are going to have to help me out with this one!

I would think harming her fertility was what most males had in mind. LOL
