Epidemiology and Infection, 2007 SUMMARYSexual dimorphism in infectious diseases whereby disease incidence is more prevalent in one gender has been reported repeatedly in the scientific literature.

Evolution of sexual size dimorphism in mammals: Sexual or natural selection? [PDF]
, 2023 Sexual size dimorphism may have evolved through two processes: sexual or natural selection. The sexual selection theory states that males compete for mate monopolization and larger males can sire more offspring than smaller ones—factors that resulted in ...

, 2012 Facial width-to-height ratio has received a great deal of attention in recent research. Evidence from human skulls suggests that males have a larger relative facial width than females, and that this sexual dimorphism is an honest signal of masculinity,

Evolution Letters, 2019 Sex differences in selection arise for at least two possible reasons: (1) differences originating from anisogamy—the Darwin‐Bateman paradigm—and (2) competition‐driven ecological character displacement (ECD), agnostic of anisogamy.
