#2Not really.
Females are highly selective. So top 20% males will get laid multiple times, while 80% will not.

Anecdotal evidence or do you have a link to this claim?

#6One of the things I really dislike about modern sexuality studies is that they never take into account the fact that humans are primates. At least, none of the trendy ones do. They also tend to focus on a microcosm of sexuality.
This one is quite a bit worse, as the baity math lingo in the title has nothing to do with the actual content of the article.

It's actually proven out long term in the genome. Only about 40% of all men who've ever lived had children. 80% of women have. Women have higher selectivity toward partners.
