Just as the peacock signals his strength and fitness by displaying his enormous tail - a sheer waste of resources from a practical point of view - so costly public acts of benevolence signal to potential mates that one possesses enough resources to give so much away.
Подобно тому, как павлин демонстрирует свою силу и хорошую форму, выставляя напоказ свой огромный хвост - бесполезная трата ресурсов с практической точки зрения - так дорогостоящая публичная демонстрация благотворительности сигнализирует потенциальным партнерам, что у этого человека есть достаточно ресурсов для таких больших трат.
