P: Clark and Hatfield (1989) conducted supporting research for female choosieness in comparison to male prefences.
E: They sent both male and female psychology students across a university campus to approach other students and ask them this: "I have been noticing you around campus. I find you to be very attractive. Would you like to go to bed with me tonight?" They found that, whilst 75% of the males approached accepted immediately, none of the females did.
C: However, this may be due to socialisation of girls and boys and the social expectations and influences placed upon them. This study also does not support how people choose longer term partners.
L: This does, however, support the assumptions that females are evolutionarily choosier than their male peers.
