BACKGROUND Demographic research on assortative mating underplays the role of social status in shaping partnering behavior, yet qualitative research suggests social status is critical in shaping partner desirability and structuring opportunities for partners to meet. OBJECTIVE This study investigates how social status of sororities and fraternities shapes relationship formation between women and men on a college campus. METHODS We draw on data from an online survey of sorority women at an elite liberal arts university about their romantic and sexual lives. RESULTS While status homophily is the dominant pattern in romantic relationships (dating 'across'), sorority women up and down the status hierarchy are more likely to hook 'up' with high-status fraternity men. Concern about status is also associated with dating and hooking 'up' the status hierarchy. CONCLUSIONS Social status shapes the desirability of potential romantic and hookup partners and opportunities for potential partners to meet. Results also highlight gender differences in the operation of social status in cross-sex relationship formation. © 2017 Kristine M. Kilanski & David McClendon.
