对 Eberhard 和 Cordero、Cordoba-Aguilar 和 Contreras-Garduno 的回应：性冲突和女性选择在理论上和实验上都是重要问题 [5]，研究人员忽略了女性生殖特征在受精过程中的干预方式。一旦澄清这一点，我们就可以将女性特征归为“抵抗”或“选择性”。第二个是研究女性偏好和相关男性特征的遗传学[5]。仅当发生传统的女性选择时，这两个特征之间才会存在遗传相关性。第三种也是最后一种方法是一旦确定了抗性或选择性，就追踪系统发育中雌性和雄性性状的起源率。这将解释这两种过程的普遍性。对果蝇和水黾的研究表明，雌性健康状况不佳是一种普遍现象，但根据相对较少的分类单元的数据来断言性冲突普遍存在还为时过早。与此相关，查普曼等人没有进行讨论。最近的研究表明女性如何控制她们的生殖决定和她们所获得的健康回报（例如[6-10]）。通过省略它们，读者可能不仅会认为性冲突和女性选择的二分法不存在，而且如果存在的话，它已经以有利于性冲突的方式得到解决。
Response to Eberhard and Cordero, and Cordoba-Aguilar and Contreras-Garduno: sexual conflict and female choice important issue both theoretically and experimentally [5], researchers ignore how female reproductive traits intervene during fertilization. Once this is clarified, we can then ascribe female traits as ‘resistant’or ‘selective’. The second is to study the genetics of the female preference and associated male traits [5]. A genetic correlation is expected between both traits only if traditional female choice is occurring. The third and final approach is to track the rates of origin of female and male traits on phylogenies once resistance or selectivity has been determined. This will explain the prevalence of either process. Studies of fruit flies and water striders have suggested that negative fitness outcomes for females are a widespread phenomenon, but it is premature to claim that sexual conflict is widespread based on data from relatively few taxa. Related to this, no discussion was made by Chapman et al. of recent studies showing how females control both their reproductive decisions and the fitness payoffs accrued by them (eg [6–10]). By omitting them, readers might not only believe that the dichotomy of sexual conflict and female choice does not exist, but, if it did, that it has been settled in favour of sexual conflict.
