Briffault's law

Briffault's law is a widely accepted principle in biology. Briffault's law states:

The female, not the male, determines all the conditions of the animal family. Where the female can derive no benefit from association with the male, no such association takes place. — Robert Briffault, The Mothers. Vol. I, p. 191

Peter Wright has argued strongly against the veracity of Briffault's law.
