(Irish Times) "Looking to date a man in finance? You’re not the only one". On female hypergamy, it tries to hide it or at least downplay it as a female tendency e.g. "you need to factor in demographics, patriarchal societal structures and plain old genetics" (and expands on these excuses)

For example:

—-

“People look around and say, ‘women seem to marry up in some ways’ or ‘women tend to marry taller husbands’ or ‘women have better educated husbands’,” says Brendan Halpin, an associate professor of sociology at the University of Limerick (UL).

Some of this is due entirely to the fact that there are male and female [genetic] differences, so men tend to be taller, and therefore taller husbands are more common. Very often the underlying explanation is quite simple: that you have unequal distributions.”

Based on this, you are left with the impression women have no preference for marrying (or choosing) taller men.

"Maybe even a trust fund or two"

In what way is having money someone else earned a marker or security or success? An adult relying on a trust fund is a consumer of wealth not a creator.

I have a couple of trust funds, that I put money into for my kids, not for gold diggers.
