The effectiveness of sexual performance generally depends on a selection made by rigorous partners
members of each species. Among humans, the financial test is one of the aspects that characterize the
sexual difference in the selection of partners. However, sexual behavior cannot be defined only by the
characteristic aspects of heterosexual people, because there are also homosexual relationships. From
this perspective, it was investigated, through a website, the preferences of homosexual and
heterosexual by monthly income and partner’s desire to have children. It was found that
heterosexual’s desire to have children is bigger than homosexuals. In addition, for both orientations,
the “monthly income” not proved to be a selective criterion when choosing a partner.
