One day I was at physical therapy. Just starting the exercises for the day, getting warmed up, etc. Sitting there genuinely in pain, skinny, trying to recover so I can lift, be healthy, etc. Now, instead of the regular, smarter DPT PT I got the PTA, who usually is absent-minded as we go through things, and who is just there so they can run more people through and make extra money. The PTA is decent, but lacks the in-depth knowledge of the DPT, and always seems to be there just to get a paycheck. I'm just mentioning this because I think it's important to visualize this situation, with the relative lack of empathy for my issues, juxtaposed with the overpowering, animalistic, hypergamic drive that took over the women in the situation that follows.

So, as I start to do my first or second exercise, out of my peripheral vision I notice a pretty "Chaddy"-looking young guy (20 at most) beginning to walk towards the entrance of the gym. Genetically blessed for sure. From the angle at which we were seated, the guy was still not visible to the PTA. I thought to myself, "I wonder how she, and the other woman working, will react to his entering the building." I thought this, of course, with his age in mind. "Will they try to put on a professional act, since I'm right here? Hide what they may really be thinking?" You know, since I've got an injury that's holding me back from really looking my best, and may not want to be indirectly objectified in a certain sense.

Never, never did I expect such a visceral, primal-seeming reaction, especially with me right there, but when I saw it happen in real time I was shocked by just how hypergamous and shamelessly primal these women acted. Keep in mind these are women in their 30s or 40s. When that jacked, tan Chad came walking through those doors with his nice hair and ripped physique, both the PTA and the other woman who works there looked as though they had seen a god. I saw them gaze over at each other with a knowing look, and then shortly after had to listen to them chatting about him (they said something about his physique). I believe the PTA later said, after they acknowledged their mutual attraction, "I have three kids, so he'd probably not be too interested... Oh, and I'm married. But the kids are a bigger problem." Repeat that line in your head. "The kids are a bigger problem."

I'll be honest: hearing a real-life, married woman say that was shocking and disheartening. This wasn't something I'd read about on reddit. Not to mention the total lack of apology, or feigning a professional demeanor with me right by her as this happened, etc. I have Christian leanings, but there was a certain Nietzschean pessimism that overcame me as I witnessed these two primates gawking over a young man who was easily 15-20 years their junior, and who was probably young enough to be their kid.

This encounter really made me realize how screwed some guys are. You can try to be the best person you can possibly be, but in this life you could easily have a wife who treats you like a dog behind your back, or who acts like a total animal with no moral compass around a guy she finds sexually attractive. A genetically blessed Chad who tops it off by lifting and pushing himself to be the best person he can be will fuck your bitch without even trying - and she'll guzzle his cum down far more eagerly and readily than she'd swallow yours.
