Women are inclined to recommending that their sisters and daughters choose beta characteristics in a man, so they have a better chance with the Alpha. This isn't conscious and their even their mothers do it to their daughters. We knew this but here's more evidence for the fire.

Body:

We all know the story. Juliet wants Romeo, the Alpha which she just isn't allowed to have. Her family tries to discourage her from going with him as he is from an opposing family. This story is close to home for a lot of us. It happened to me. But the reasoning why the family discourages the daughter/sister/niece my be less to do with better prospects over wanting the Alpha genes for themselves.

"For the most part, women choose the same ideal partner characteristics for themselves as for their sister. The qualities of faithfulness, loyalty, honesty, trustworthiness and reliability score highest when women are asked who would make an ideal partner,"

  • Traditionally women will attempt to tell each other that this is what they seek in an ideal mate. But we know better than to take advice from a woman on what she wants in a mate.

"But some clear differences also emerged. "The women perceived characteristics like being understanding, empathetic, responsible, helpful, sensible and kind as more important for their sister's partner than for their own,"...Women found being sincere, humorous, charming, sexually satisfying and fun as more important for their own partner than their sister's."

  • here we go. Alpha fucks, beta bucks. This is what its really about. Women want beta characteristics for their friends and family, but for themselves there is a clear difference. She wants her own to be funny, sexy and fun. but not her familys.

""The ideal partner for your sister or your daughter can't drain resources from you and decrease the chance that your own genes can be passed on. Preferably he should directly increase your own chances."

  • purposefully they want their sister/daughter to have a man that will not decrease their own chances of passing on their own genes. They want them to have the lesser man so they have a better chance in the reproductive race.

"It could be that your sister would like you to choose another partner so that the heartthrob will be available to her instead. She may not even be thinking about it, and it's far from certain that she's actually trying to steal your guy."

  • this is crucial. They're not even sugarcoating it.

"The same underlying mechanism may even still exist in your mother, even though she is past her baby-making days. It lies dormant in both of them, just as it does in you."

  • This actually happened to me. Guys at the start of relationships may experience this where a mother will send signals to them. Even though they are in a committed relationship and have babies of their own. I'm not even joking. Though you may not have sex, she may get the tingles for you. Her friends suddenly were hitting on me too. Suddenly my own situation makes more sense.

"No one is saying that any of this is necessarily conscious. It is a result of genetic transfer through all the generations before you. Your mother and your sister are also out after the best possible partner."

  • crucial. They don't even know they are doing it. I'd like to hear from guys who have also experienced the mother or friends who have sent signals to them.

"Today, Norwegian women can usually even provide independently for themselves and their children. But they seem to be attracted to partners with exactly the same qualities as the partners of women in countries where the family chooses their partner. In very few cultures do women have much choice."

  • even in based feminist Norway, Independent career women™ are choosing Alphas.

Conclusion

  • Confirms Everything we already knew. Alpha fucks. AWALT. Evolutionary psychology. The Genetic arms race...
  • Sisters and mothers will push the beta on their friend/family so they have more chance with the Alpha. This is usually subconscious.
  • Mothers will subconsciously want the Alpha their daughters have, well past their prime. It would be interesting to hear from guys who have experienced this. I know I have.
  • Even some Independent women™ given the choice will still go after bad choice Alpha
