Several recent studies have provided mixed evidence, however, and in some instances females seem to prefer genetically similar males.
In a few instances, females were observed to have two plugs, either from the same male or from mating twice in quick succession.
For instance, female screenwriters and directors, whether working in Hollywood or arthouse cinemas (and taking their cue from women artists and writers), are making a difference.
For instance, female subjects may give verbally very low "grades" to ads using actresses in sexy roles, but their mirror neuron areas seem to fire up quite a bit, suggesting some form of identification and empathy.
For instance, female fiddler crabs prefer to mate with large males.
At the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, for instance, female students in the Masters of Business Administration program band together to put on conferences, events, and panels, where they can meet one another as well as alumnae now in the corporate world.
For instance, female sex workers are arrested in far greater numbers than the male clients they serve.
For instance, female genital mutilation is not a Muslim practice nor is it codified, in any way, in Sharia law; there are passages in the Bible and the Torah that reference beliefs about homosexuality or women that do not reflect current beliefs or practices in these religions.
For instance, female politicians in India are less likely to be corrupt and more likely to provide public goods in a fair and affordable manner relative to their male counterparts [21].
For instance, female, third-level educated and younger subjects were over-represented in the sample.
