Abstract:

This study used the allocating-mate-dollars paradigm to examine the influence of gender ratio background and mate resources on the mate preferences of working people. The results showed that: (1) When working people had more mate resources, the sex ratio had less influence on their mate preferences; (2) Regardless of their environment, love was a necessity for people in the workplace when choosing a spouse, while future income prospects were a luxury; (3) When people in the workplace face a gender disadvantage in spouse selection, their preferences for a spouse also included kindness, loyalty, and good health. The research showed that the mate preferences of working people were influenced by both internal and external factors.

Key words: sex ratio, resources, mate preference, working people
