>men do not necessarily select for taller woman

Men don't select, because we don't get pregnant, our instinct is to mate with whoever we can. Women are nature's selector, not men.




He's not disagreeing with that. . After pregnancy there are about 18 years of raising a kid too-- so ability to provide is a part of selection. In the past women would have to take it into account, but now it's much less necessary because they will be provided for either way
