Actually, when you compare the two, Rathian is a dull green with browns and beiges, whereas Rathalos is bright red with black markings. So compared to Los, she's a bit on the ugly side. Oftentimes with birds (not just peacocks) the females are much less beautiful than the males, seeing as they don't really need to court anyone.
