Answer to Question 1

Gender stereotypes of men often emphasize independence and a willingness to take risks. When men were interested in attracting a female mate, they were less conforming. However, because agreeableness is valued in women, women expecting to attract a mate were more likely to conform. Thus, even while men may not have conformed to a particular situation when there was a sexual motive, they were conforming to gender stereotypes just as women's conformity in the specific situation also shows conformity to a gender stereotype.
