There is no common agreement on the interpretation of the association between dominance and attractiveness. Some researchers have suggested that the high mating value of dominant men is a result of their tendency to reaching higher socio-economical status and, therefore, gaining the resources that they may invest in their mate and offspring (Mueller & Mazur 1997). Alternatively, dominance has been suggested to honestly reflect male genetic quality. Tendency to dominate is a risky strategy in competitive encounters and is associated with higher levels of testosterone, which may reduce immunocompetence in various species (Folstad & Karter 1992); dominance could, therefore, reliably indicate male condition. There is also evidence that males of high genetic quality have a tendency for lower parental investment Waynforth 1998). In response, a mixed mating strategy may have evolved in females: they prefer genetically superior males as short-term or extra-pair sexual partners while, at the same time, they seek males who are more willing to invest in their offspring as long-term or social partners (Reynolds 1996; Penton-Voak et al.1999; Blomqvist et al. 2002; Foerster et al.2003). This interpretation is consistent with our findings that women in stable relationships have a strong tendency to prefer the smell of dominant men when in the fertile phase of their cycle, while single women and all women in non-fertile phases lack this preference.
