"The rationale is that testosterone, which produces masculine features, compromises the immune system. Consequently, during adolescence when facial features and voice take their adult form, only those males who are extremely healthy can “afford” to produce high levels of testosterone."

and

" If intelligence is indeed a powerful indicator of good genes, as it should be on theoretical and empirical grounds, then attractive women should value it more according to the hypothesis articulated in the current article (which they do not) and women should value it more around ovulation (especially in short-term mates) according to the trade-off model (which they do not). "
Look at the tables in the paper. Intelligence was corellated the lowest out of 21 "mate charasteristics"

every day is a school day...

"A minority of women— notably those low in mate value who are able to escape male mate guarding and the manifold costs of an exposed infidelity—will pursue a mixed mating strategy, obtaining investment from one man and good genes from an extra-pair copulation partner (as the trade-off model predicts). Since the vast majority of women secure genes and direct benefits from the same man, however, most women will attempt to secure the best combination of all desired qualities from the same man."

Further studies are needed to determine what is the size of that "minority", as that's what mothers of most of kids who had a stepfather did. It's almost a caricature how often the step father is beta looking and relatively a good earner. Also one could (I did), search for data - are there more step fathers than step mothers, only to find that there are indeed way more step fathers. A state could also be thought of as a "step father", if the state is the best she thinks she can get (doesn't require attention or sex, doesn't beat you or your child, doesn't argue with you or your child, doesn't require you to share your flat with it, provides very modest but stable and consistent income, doesn't cheat), she will chose the state. If I open a private browser window, and search for "single mothers", I get two "by choice" suggestions, the other being "by choice UK". They know that the "state step father" situation is different depending on the country, therefore they add "uk" to their search, to not read posts from Australia or the US.

So what’s enough money? I’m looksmaxing either way. But right now I’m in the top 17% for my age, and top 28% for all men iregardless of age. Is my income alone (self isolated) enough?

A lot of what I read on this subreddit reinforces what I already thought: some women are somehow out of touch or have completely forgotten that they are monkeys just like us.

I can accept that I am a primal beast and sensitive man at the same time and that those things are at odds with each other all the time. I can have thoughts on both ends of the spectrum and be mostly aware of where they are coming from.

I hate how sexist I must sound but I’m reminded of the scene in House of Cards where Spacey (yea I know) is grilling the First Lady on this topic. She wants an a man to to take charge and be strong but at the same time, understandably, wants to feel like an equal and be just as good or even better than him. Those two ideas are at odds though.

Okay...But what is reality? Women say they want that but most don't end up getting that. Men say they want a 10, most don't end up getting that.
