In some species the male is more ornamented or striking than the female. Yes, there are many examples.
Peacock and Peahen – The male peacock has the magnificent colourful tail, while the peahen is more subdued in colour.
Lion and Lioness – The male lion carries the majestic mane; the lioness lacks it.
Elephant – In some elephant species, males tend to have larger tusks. Among Asian elephants, many females have very small tusks or none visible.
Deer – The male deer (stag) often bears large antlers; females usually do not.
Rooster and Hen – The rooster is generally brighter, with a larger comb and more colourful feathers.
Mandarin ducks, pheasants, birds of paradise – Males are famously dazzling, females comparatively camouflaged.
Yet nature also shows the reverse or something different:
Spotted hyenas – Females are larger and socially dominant.
Anglerfish – Tiny males, enormous females.
Many spiders and praying mantises – Females are larger.
One explanation biologists give is in many species, males evolved bright colours, antlers, manes, tusks, songs, or displays to attract mates or compete with rivals.
“nature itself adorned the male.” Nature certainly provides examples that inspire such sayings — peacocks, lions, deer, elephants — though the full picture across the animal kingdom is quite varied and fascinating.
Deer (Stag and Doe) – The male deer (stag) often has impressive antlers, a classic sign of beauty, strength and display in nature.
Nāga / Nagdev with Mani (Nāga-maṇi) – In Indian folklore, some serpents are described as possessing a radiant jewel (Nāga-maṇi). This is a powerful mythological symbol associated with mystery, luminosity, wisdom, protection or hidden treasure. The image of the serpent with a gem is deeply rooted in stories, temple art and devotional imagination.
Snake beauty in symbolism – Cobras in Indian tradition are not usually discussed in terms of male/female beauty but as beings of power, guardianship, fertility, and divine association — linked with Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu’s Adishesha, and Nāga worship.
Nature and mythology often overlap in such reflections: the stag’s antlers, the peacock’s feathers, the lion’s mane, the elephant’s tusks, the serpent’s mythical jewel — all become symbols of splendour, power or divine ornamentation.
So also just a few examples generally Kerala men are very handsome so too German men the opposite of it can be seen in Bengali women French girls are beautiful while the opposite gender are usually more meak.
