Remember that the man is the gatekeeper of commitment. Just as we have so much beta attempts to gain sex, there is also a parallel for commitment. For society will use all the beta and omega tricks to force you into that - shaming, social pressure, preferential treatment against single men, the media, social media, etc... and even some downright destructive behaviours like threats and blackmail.

Oh yes, there's an alpha way to gain commitment - it involves trust, trust, more trust, respect, attraction, support, sex, sweetness, devotion, kids, room for freedom, and good food - but fat chance of that in today's society, being the beta that it is. Yeah, beta behaviours in seeking commitment are just as repulsive to men.

And that's where the whole concept of Committable Market Value (CMV) emerges.

So, just as men have to work hard to create SMV and the attractive qualities worthy of sex and status (men also have to create their CMV), women too need to cultivate their CMV (yes, I introduce that) and the qualities worthy of commitment, which was kind of obvious before the 20th century and still is in conservative societies. The thing is that a man's CMV is linked closely to his SMV, which is why the top status men don't seem to run out of options. For women though, it warrants a separate investigation.

Now if only someone would draw a CMV graph and study it like the SMV graph - but chances are that graph ain't showing a significant peak these days. But it could look an inverse of a woman's SMV graph were it not for the fact that seeking commitment is not the same as being worthy of it.

I'd like to hear what you guys think about the concept.
