Yes, but he didn't mean it in that way. Evolution says that any trait that gives you a better chance at producing offspring will eventually 'win'. In nature this may be the fittest, but sometimes it's just down to female preference.

Can be found by Joe Public if he/she were remotely interested. Doesn't exactly make a riviting read unless you're specifically interested in the subject matter - or you're my husband

Even if it was they might not read it properly. Just because something is peer reviewed doesn't make it correct. The whole MMR fiasco stemed from a peer reviewed paper. You have to know how to read the paper, to analyse it and look for any possible errors in the study design, for conflict of interest, etc etc.

I should add (for self credibility protection) that such criteria are not part of what I do.
