New research reveals that guitar skills in extreme metal music are more linked to male competition and status than to attracting mates. The study, focusing on heterosexual male guitarists, suggests that technical proficiency in guitar playing serves more as a display of dominance among peers.
P.S. it looks like you can publish any BS you want in psychology, and then write a long article where you pretend to be a scientist and you were always interested in “evolutionary effects of music on mating success”.
You know what, this researcher is just another weirdo, but payed for exercising his twisted fantasies.
