Not a single woman accepted the proposal, while 70% of the men agreed. This outcome provides a useful scenario to explore through the lens of evolutionary psychology and social learning theory, highlighting the diverse perspectives on human sexual behaviors.

Horney believed that any sense of inferiority in women was a result of societal conditioning, such as dependence on...
