Mate-value refers to a person’s overall desirability as a romantic partner. According to the researchers, as women have gained economic independence and surpassed men in college attendance, women are less reliant on men for financial security.

Gloria Steinem, a leading figure in the fight for women’s equality in the United States, has died at the age of 92. Rachael Robnett, director of the Women’s Research Institute of Nevada at UNLV, discussed Steinem’s legacy.
