Solution

1)Three hundred fifty eight undergraduates completed anonymous questionnaries regarding jealousy over a mates infedility.

2)The primary evidence for gender differences in jealousy over emotional and sexual infedility comes from studies that use a forced choice hypothetical scenario.

3)For centuries the differences between man and women were socially defined and distorted through a lens of sexism in which men assumed superiority over women and maintained it through domination.

4)Men and women are equal but different, when I say equal, I mean that men and women have a right to equal opportunity and protection under the law.The fact that the people in this country are assured these rights does not negate my observtion that men and women are atleast as different pschycologically as they are physically.
