Abstract
► We survey 47 sexual cannibalism papers and note words describing males and females. ► Active words are more likely to be used to describe females than males. ► This contrasts with the findings of a previous study on sexual conflict literature. ► Females were often associated with negative stereotypes. ► Researchers are influenced by their study systems, not just cultural stereotypes.
