Gender-Based Advantage: A Model of Emerging and Constructed Opportunities
通过一个抽象演化模型，分析性别优势如何在社会中无意间形成，解释家庭剩余分配中偏爱某一性别的社会惯例如何随时间出现，并探讨参照群体对家庭内部性别关系的影响。
This paper seeks to analyze the emergence of gender-based differential advantage in an abstract evolutionary model. This model helps to explain how the social convention of favoring one gender in the distribution of household surplus could emerge over time and suggests that gender-based advantage could emerge in a society without purposeful intent. It also provides insights into intra-household gender relations and the possible effects of reference groups on intra-household relations. In addition, it lays the groundwork for some interesting empirical or experimental research.
