Answer 1

In the context of matching hypothesis, people look for the most attractive mate reflects the operation of matching.

It's true that people look for the most attractive mate irrespective of their socio, economic and cultural differences. It's not just money and physical attraction that form the attraction elements but the taste, interests, personality etc. too contribute to attractiveness.

Unlike race and social class, gender is a dimension of equality is an assertion of the feminist theory.

Feminism claims and asserts that gender equality should be the basis of any society because women were oppressed and suppressed for long and the world's attention was in dealing with the social class and racial inequalities. The issues of women were just ignored. So, today feminism asserts that gender equality should be regarded above all the others.
