Why might a peahen choose to mate with a peacock with a long, gaudy tail?

#Section 2: Evolution
  1. He is easier to find than a male with a plain tail

  2. She feels sorry for him
  3. Actually, it is the male (peacock) that chooses its mate
  4. A male with such a tail who is able to survive and reproduce likely carries genes that will enhance the survival of the peahen's young
