As is true for a number of other behavioral (Buss, 1995a; Tooby & Cosmides, 1992) and psychological (Buss, 1995b; Buss & Kenrick, 1998) differences between men and women, such as expressions of violence, competition, and risk taking, jealousy is said to reflect adaptations to the distinct pressures that men and women faced in their evolutionary past. The era from which many of the proposed adaptations are believed to have derived is the Pleistocene era, a period when homo sapiens are generally assumed to have been organized in hunter-gatherer groups. To the extent that such an organization presented unique demands on the sexes, it is hypothesized that men and women developed somewhat different strategies for their survival.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2372/is_2_37/ai_64698514"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/findarticles.com/img/4089106A-4AAC-41E1-8480-D6295C546295" alt="" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/188700C5-6635-4BCA-B2E1-9FA6AC663B78/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
