I can contribute a bit to your study so long:

Male Crested Barbets is brighter in colour, specially the red, but even the yellow is a nice bright yellow.

Human males are duller in colour than females and don't do house chores...!

Agree, that will be very help full to draw a good comparison....

This is the male, we call him Woody, after the Cha cha cha, taking a short break.

This is the female, we call her Wendy, just sitting in front of her clean and tidy house.
