To be honest, I can't say I know the answers to your questions -- being somewhat limited in my experience (:/) -- but I'll take a stab:
With respect to the first question: I'd say that the women are likely doing something when they dance that shows more receptivity, which might make the males find them, umm, possibly more receptive, which might cause them to have more interest in the women, and thus more likely to give them big tips. Attraction is spurred by attraction -- this we know from other research: men find women more attractive if the women are perceived by those men to be attracted to them. With respect to the second question: yes, of course it is very different. But it's still interesting -- at least, to me! On the continuum of "not-receptive" to "maximally receptive," human females move, umm, periodically. Other animals move *farther*. m PS: Been using Stanovich for years.

Hey, I have a couple of question about this: How good an analog is tipping a lap dancer to female initiated sexual contact? Isn't this still very different from animals that ONLY have sex during estrus? Humans estrus or no, still have sex during all phases of the female cycle. Most other animals do not.
