We present a simulation model of competition between aging and non-aging individuals in a sexually reproducing population. The aging individuals may outcompete the non-aging ones if they have a sufficiently but not excessively higher initial fecundity or if individuals mate
assortatively with respect to their own phenotype. Also, the aging phenotype outcompetes the non-aging one or resists dominance of the latter for a longer period in populations composed of genuine males and females compared to populations of simultaneous hermaphrodites. Finally, whereas sterilizing parasites promote non-aging, the effect of
mortality-enhancing parasites is to enable longer persistence of the aging phenotype relative to when parasites are absent.
