This is simply coming to a conclusion based on numbers and doesn't reflect the psychology around it. A guy that has muscles may believe that he has an advantage and will therefore approach more women and push for sex that same day. At the same time, the average guy may not approach as many women or sexually escalate because he doesn't want to scare her away because he doesn't view himself as a sexual being. This is why scientists don't come to conclusions based on data alone. They tend to try to understand the data.
There are all sorts of variables from the man's side.
But a lot of the data is simply from the perception of women. The more you talk, the less dominant you seem. The more muscles you have, the more dominant you appear. The more you keep your receding hairline, the less dominant you appear, when you shave your head and grow a beard or stubble, then you flip the dominant perception, etc.
Either way, the OP talked about "groups and leaders".
My theory on this is quite simple.
The bull elk DOES NOT GIVE A FUCK about other bull elk unless a challenger approaches his harem. This is how men should behave when it comes to pickup, and keeping women as well.
The bull elk does not seek to join and "lead" a group of yapping spike bucks. He simply wanders about the woods, focused on himself, and the cow elk follow.
By following the fundamentals of chill indifference, fitness, teasing, confidence , and focusing on self improvement in your career and the arts (fiction, music, any non-couch hobby), you won't need to dick around with a pack of spike bucks. You simply walk into a place, and the girls know you are the dominant male.
You don't need to say a word.
And when you just gave a woman five orgasms the previous night, and have this kind of confidence, you have your pick. It's like catnip.
