People are hardwired to prefer partners they find attractive. Beyond a well documented bias towards symmetry in and a certain range of ratios of physical features, attempts to find some sort of innately desirable traits that are not confounded by the incredible strong signals sent in a given culture & generation's media always fail. When you say, "Women are hardwired to look for men with resources or the ability to get them. It comes down to whether a man can provide the woman with a safe and clean place to have her babies," it's quite peculiar how societies with more of the first have a massive decline in the second.
The snarky way to reply to this is, if you're so smart, why can't you get laid?
edit: are not confounded by. Also, if you're downvoting in response to something other than the useless snark at the end of my post, please comment.
- ivrrimum 10y agoWhat has beeing smart to do with having money/social status? Nerds have always been a subject to ridicule. Regarding the original statement - I agree on both sides. I agree that women(same as men) have some biological broad idea of partner they would WANT to reproduce with. But with time and more experience in relationships, they might compromise.
