@KevinSimler @sarahdoingthing Males who excel at courtship (with handicapped characteristics) are proving to females that they have -

@KevinSimler @sarahdoingthing a strong phenotype as they have withstood the downside the handicap would confer

@jmzwar @sarahdoingthing Yes. But why do females prefer males who handicap themselves (and then overcome it), rather than no-nonsense males?

@KevinSimler @jmzwar why don't companies just hire smart, industrious people with no useless degree? it's too expensive to tell

@sarahdoingthing @jmzwar No that's a bad analogy! Better analogy is if someone got a degree with one hand tied behind back. Would u hire

@sarahdoingthing @jmzwar over a person who got same degree w/ both hands? Yes. But what if the first person couldn't untie their other hand?
