Abstract

• The validity of Bateman principles remains an ongoing debate among biologists. • Bateman's views on sex roles are deeply enmeshed with sex stereotypes and anisogamy. • Bateman's gradients are often considered useful metrics, confirmed by field studies. • But Bateman's gradients also seem to be impossible to refute.
