Very simple: TRP hates the idea of wifing up someone else's slut or not getting the best of a woman or whatever else.

Fair enough.

But men also invariably want the hottest woman they can get for an LTR....therefore, every man will suffer this fate if he achieves this goal.

8 Chad meets 8 stacy....well stacy put out for the 9-10 gigachads. Or the guys who had max money and status to go along with the looks.

There is no scenario where a guy can achieve both of the above objectives.

Men fuck down women fuck up. Men marry up women marry down or across...in terms of appearance.

If you want to be the best or among the best then you have to get a gf who is (in your mind) 2 points beneath you....or get the girl at or above your level and just accept that you're not going to be as conventionally hot as some of her past flames.

Seems like an iron law
