Status quo:

You often hear women claim that men are only attracted to slim/curvy women because society taught them so. Feminism tries to make a strong point out this not for the sake of beautiful women losing their pussy-pass but in order to ensure that sup-par women get it too. Society treats ugly women like men. Those women in turn think that the world is only mean to them instead of them+men. The female logical consequence is not to demand all women to be treated like male equals but for all ugly women to be treated like HB8+ girls.

female beauty:

with very rare deviations (fat lovers, men attracted to very old women, etc) the prominent focus of female beauty was, is and always will be fertility. Fertility is dependent on several criteria such as age, weight, waist to hip ratio, facial symmetry etc...

Now one could argue that shaved legs, armpits and pubic area are not indicators of fertility but they are. Those spurts in hair growth are due to testosterone levels in females (yes women also have testosterone, but at a different ratio to estrogen than men do. yes men also have estrogen). Shaving her body gives the illusion of a younger age. Makeup enhances facial symmetry and reduces signs of age. Clothing tries to accentuate the waist to hip ratio etc etc etc

Societies representation of female beauty is an accentuation of what women have been doing for millennia. The first lipstick was invented 5000 years ago and even birds add colorful leaves to their tail-feathers to attract more mating partners.

male beauty:

Obviously physical fitness, facial symmetry etc etc applies as well but this time enter the alpha/beta dynamic and all those priorities get shifted all over the place.

Men compete with one another in various areas (money, sports, influence etc). Women don't have a value system to determine whether a man is worth having or not outside of "he looks hawt". So they opt out for adopting the male hierarchy system instead. It pretty much is women sitting back, letting men figure out their social ranking and then pick and chose from the top of that male hierarchy.

That is the reason every man at the top of his respective field will have plenty of female options even though some of those achievement areas are mutually exclusive to one another. You see fat wrestlers, sumo ringers, boxers and bouncers with hot girlfriends because those men are at the top of their respective food chain.

is beauty a social construct?:

Female solipsism only allows women to assume that every human is working/thinking the way that they are. Because they are attracted to men at their respective top of the food chain, women assume that men are attracted to women for the same reason.

People always say that runway models are representation of male preferences, but those runway shows are created for women by men who only needed a human clothing hanger to display their design work. The best way to determine male preference is looking at porn models and there you will find the overall preference of men. Slim with curves and some variation (size of boobs, ass, skin color, race, hair length and all that stuff) but prominently the classic signs of fertility.
