Our SMV model is pretty simple, to give us a basic understanding of something extremely complicated. And most importantly to give us hints on what we can do to do better.
But what about the exceptions? Now that is where our model stops working and it doesn't even have to work because we leave the realm of circumstances we can affect (that's the point where we trade utility for precision). Mating is not a simple single stimuli single response reaction, it is way more complicated, TWO stimuli single response, no two is too less, let's invent a number 1000. Ok, I guess now we are coming closer.
The bio psycho social mating model (BPSMM):
The workings of the body, mind, and environment all affect each other.
Instead of dualism we have a multitude of causes (stimuli) responsible for many effects (reactions). Women in different circumstances will react different to the same stimuli. One stimuli will trigger several reactions and one reactions will be triggered by several stimuli. Women will show different reactions even if the stimuli is the same.
Genetic markers are biologically attractive.
Character is psychologically attractive.
Status is sociologically* attractive.
Ripped abs would be a biological factor, attractive to the majority of women but repulsive to some, for example those who have been scorned in the past by men with chiseled abs.
Strong character would by psychologically attractive and attracts mostly weak women and maybe repulsive for a strong women. Or a woman with eating disorders will find different guys appealing than a healthy one.
A goth outfit would be sociologically attractive to a goth girl but repulsive to a normal one. Or just social class, income, level of education, all these factors affect who she finds attractive differently.
Since tattoos are attractive to many/some women and it can't be biological we can safely assume that there are more than just biological factors at play.
*Social factors include socioeconomic status, technology, and religion. Also included in the sociological attractiveness are cultural factors. For instance, differences in the circumstances, expectations, and belief systems of different cultural groups contribute to different reactions to stimuli. Cultural factors can even differ across a single city for example from lower-income to higher-income areas.
Then there is difference between attraction, sexual/phsyiscal attraction, rapport, deal breakers, prerequisites which have to be taken into account.
Relationships: Relationships are value propositions that are being analysed through cost benefit analysis. The SMP model combined with assortative mating would say that people of similar value pair together. Combine this with the fact that there are many things that are ignored in the smp model because they are not in our control, for example preferences of your gf, social and cultural expectations (BPSMM)... add that relationships are not a market with perfect information, add that humans often act irrational, add RMV (relationship market value) and you have a much more accurate model to explain relationships. People don't show their true face at the start, they will always try to paint themselves in a better light. You would have to calculate that in.
Somewhere we would have to factor in game, opportunities, and drive (how much effort you are willing to invest). And saturated market theory, there are tons of fat nerdy guys willing to enter a relationship, that market is full. Supply and demand! Most attractive guys hang out in the one night stand market, so there is a high demand for them in the relationship market, supply your market with a product which is in demand.
Only then we could accurately predict relationships/hookups, we added a whole lot of new factors and in the end for an individual the normal smp model would be everything they need to know. It perfectly tells you everything in your control and ignores other stuff. Except maybe rapport but that completely individual and not that unnecessary for one night stands while it is crucial for social circle game.
All these "look at this relationship GOTCHA" threads miss the point, no one says that a 10 smv male will pair with a certain 10 smv woman.
Anyways is that stuff really that important? What an individual needs to know is how to increase his SMV/RMV. The model is not intended to predict relationships or hook ups. We can't know everything with prefect precision, we should not focus that much on accuracy but rather utility.
Two equally useless arguments: "Women will only fuck 7ft tall ripped billionaires" and it's counter argument. Until someone comes up with good reasons not to maximize your SMV all this talk about women who fuck ugly men will be fruitless. A man who improved his SMV will have more options than if he didn't. Especially if you consider that chiseled abs won't be a hindrance to most women even if many claim that they don't need it it's unlikely that they find a plain or fat body more alluring. Also this fucking talk about genetics like "Shoulder to waist ratio depends on your genetics" is stupid since there is a huge variation between your maximum genetic potential and your worst state.
