"The Savanna-IQ Interaction Hypothesis,
derived from the logical conjunction of the
Savanna Principle and a theory of the evolution
of general intelligence, suggests that
more intelligent individuals may be more
likely to acquire and espouse evolutionarily

and, for men, sexual exclusivity, than less
intelligent individuals, while general intelligence
may have no effect on the acquisition
and espousal of evolutionarily familiar values"
