i don't know that it's solely based on his ability to provide, michael. i think it's also based on the ability to protect one's mate. machismo is great, but when you're supposed to be protecting a mate (in her mind at least), and you're being cocky and want to prove your a manly man still, and you risk being ripped limb from limb or at least rendered unable to provide protection, you lose brownie points! i don't want my spawn to be exposed to peril (hey, we're talking cavemen here) because my mate had to prove he had bigger balls. one of the things i look for in a potential partner, btw, is the ability to make me feel protected. if i'm not getting that, we'd be great friends, but dammit, protection equals cherishing in my heart (has to do with my first principals) and that's major desire for me. that protection can be equally physical or mental. sometimes the best protection is the ability to talk or mentally intimidate the hell out of one's opponent.
