>>13015046My number was off, it's a little over 40% for species that have larger females, not 70%. But it is less than 2% for species that have larger males, I was right about that.
Yea for females being larger is better because larger females are better at making babies and eggs etc, whereas size has no effect on a male's ability to make sperm or impregnant females/fertilize eggs. Basically larger females are innately and pretty much always better, but male size being better or worse is dependent on the environment.
In an environment where we fight with firearms and missiles and have aircrafts and spaceships and automated farms etc., smaller males are better. They are cheaper to make and maintain (they use less food and space and such) while being better at fighting in the military and operating vehicles and being astronauts etc.
