This has perplexed me for some time. I see RP men talking about “the wall” maybe more than any other concept. There is an obsession with women’s age. I would rather never marry, than settle down with someone who’s going to find me gross in 5 years anyway and secretly wishing he was banging a 16 year old. RP men say that women are always fantasizing about richer/hotter men, but does the same not go for men and younger/hotter women? Sure, I might be able to snag a man and essentially trap him with me through marriage- but I don’t want to trap someone who isn’t attracted to me. Knowing that even if I stay slim, work out, wear makeup and dress nice, even get some cosmetic help, that a man will never find me attractive (seeing as celebrities like say, Natalie Portman, are deemed disgusting) makes me sure that it’s not worth every settling down at all. I don’t think there can be genuine love without some degree of attraction. So why is RP advice to women to settle down?
