This suggestion BEST illustrates: an evolutionary perspective.

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been observed that older men tend to marry younger women and women prefer to marry older and taller men. This could be thought of as a evolutionary perspective because by selecting such mates they make them socially more fit. Because when men marry younger women they tend to stick to the single relationship as per their psychological nature. Again when women marry older men they ensure their safety.
