I don't know why, but this headline sounds like it's a device to remember something. Like "Every good boy deserves fudge." Like someone was trying to remember "SSMFSD" and they came up with "Sexual selection makes female songbirds drab."

Meta: Can we please stop with these low quality comments? This has nothing to do with the article.

It seems like a potentially interesting article, but it reads like it is not not written in double negatives.

I mean the article states that being drab is about not investing in expensive traits. But everything about it is written as if there isn't a lot of natural culling of colorful things that is more natural to talk about.
