I honestly think it’s pretty true but unattractive girls need to lower their standards because that’s just life and I don’t mean to be rude but it’s how the world goes round
@Malita55 you are spot-on with that comment. There are lot of girls sitting home alone because they are too picky. They don't have to be dating shorting wildebeests, just lower it a notch and have a good time with an average guy, with average intelligence, who is clean and polite. Life is too short not to enjoy what you have in front of you. As for me, I was too picky and now regret it. I had some very nice girlfriends while single, but I could have TRIPLED the number if I was just a little less picky.
I mean that only makes sense. In fact I'd expect it to be true the other way around as well. But what's really weird is that the 80/20 rule shows up in far more places than just here:
I think we all kind of desire the best partner we can get regardless of attractiveness to a degree.
I also think that some men have no standards and should increase their standards. All that shows to me is that men will date or have sex with anyone who comes their way.
Might as well be. I mean, I wouldn't consider any more than 20% of women to look above average either. (probably closer to 5-10%)
Looks aren't a linear spectrum, most people fall under the "whatever" category, attractive people are rare.
And if we aren't talking about looks alone, then the percentages go way lower. I mean, the amount of people I would "consider" dating, is less than 1%.
No. You're completely wrong. Women get approached all the time and can pick which guy they want. Guys get rejected most of time when trying to get good looking girls, so many try to go for lower ones.
Im not sure where your from but guys can't just claim women and say I want you. Like dragon said we have to approach women and we get turned down much more then not. Why is that because competition that cute girl standing in the corner already been approached 5 times today, she has all these guys to choose from.
Let's say a guy approaches 5 girls he'll be lucky if he gets with just 1 number. Also a major factor the vast majority of men dont cold approach women for various reason. Back to 80/20 the 20% of guys are the ones approaching almost all the girls they find attractive. Their the ones who are charismatic, handsome and good with women getting.
Ah most men that planned to marry improve themselves physically, get real degree's , careers etc. Women are the main ones who just expect or think they deserve something. Lets just say it doesn't end well for them past 30. Try talking to a girl about exercise... you better believe she expects her Boyfriend or Husband to stay in shape.
I have seen 10 times more overweight women with in shape guys into their 30's -50's with six figure jobs while they sit at home watching TV than I have ever seen in shape girls with overweight guys. In fact I see girls humiliating their husbands/boyfriends working their butts off to provide for their families and what does the women do? has a BS degree the husband paid for and works a $10.00-$15.00 job.
Im my experience hot intelligent women hit on obviously successful guys more than attractive guys! The other point is they hit on guys that their girlfriends have dated where the sex was said to be amazing?
The top 20% of men is only the "idealized partner" for most women, but when it comes to real life, you can (and a lot did) easily fall in love with someone who is the opposite of your expected "Mr. Right"
Whether they want to admit it or not, it's true. Even my own tastes are "impossible", which is why I'm glad that I'm not limited by them, and never have been.
Especially with Instagram age, every girl has 1000+ followers they all think theyre God's gift to earth and with never settle for a guy who isn't under 6'3 and makes 7 figures.
Younger girls go for the hot guys. some girls in my college are all shallow because look. I don't care much about the looks of the guys . more I am more interested. His personal.
no... the statistics are in and 85% of men are not getting married. In fact even the ones that are, are getting divorced by their wive's 1-2 years later. The normal situation for a man now is single and unmarried. Our populations in North American are going to be 80-90% immigrants soon. I hope the next generation looks at the train wreck of millennial's and learns. I see in shape 20 year olds now and I never did before, I'm going to marry 10 years younger at least.
Sorry *population Growth in NA will be 80-90% foreigner born or 1st generation. I can walk down the streets of my last two neighborhoods (upper middle class) and maybe see 1 white person overweight most likely. I will see dozens of healthy in shape Arab kids or Arab families with 2-4 kids walking by. Since I plan to have zero I 'm not complaining I have nothing invested in the further anymore.
I've seen this in play and you can friend girls on FaceBook and see it play out again and again. They will dump Husbands and Fathers for the douche bag at the gym with the barbel FB pic.

I honestly think it’s pretty true but unattractive girls need to lower their standards because that’s just life and I don’t mean to be rude but it’s how the world goes round
Haha but who likes to think and become complacent with being unattractive.
Lots of growing up and learning to do she has. Lol.
What's unattractive?
On the other hand, unattractive people, men and women alike, could consider taking steps to make themselves more attractive.
I actually think it's easier to become more attractive than to will yourself to desire what you don't desire.
So you've lowered yours then yes?

Muh conditions! I need a man who can pick my 300 lbs curvy body up, not a stick.
You seriously weigh that much?
@ZeussLightningBolt 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 lol no

I can do 299?
This honestly sounds like BS. We all want the best of partners, without wanting to be best partners ourselves, period.
Every one wants the best but many guys downgrade for the lack of opportunity. The difference most girls have many options so there able to be picky
@That1tallguy It's rather the opposite. Guys have greater options.
Not at all. Women have greater options
How?
@Dragoneye44 The population of women is greater than men. That's how. But seriously, girls have really limited options when it comes to guys.
No. You're completely wrong. Women get approached all the time and can pick which guy they want. Guys get rejected most of time when trying to get good looking girls, so many try to go for lower ones.
@Dragoneye44 I could also say that there are many women out there and guys can choose whoever they want.
Im not sure where your from but guys can't just claim women and say I want you. Like dragon said we have to approach women and we get turned down much more then not. Why is that because competition that cute girl standing in the corner already been approached 5 times today, she has all these guys to choose from.

@That1tallguy Is this any theory backed up by science? It sounds like BS.
Your in denial everybody knows it or maybe it's just where your from but in the U. S that's how it is

@CrashDF No woman has ever dumped her man for gaining weight, lol. Nice joke.
I have seen 10 times more overweight women with in shape guys into their 30's -50's with six figure jobs while they sit at home watching TV than I have ever seen in shape girls with overweight guys. In fact I see girls humiliating their husbands/boyfriends working their butts off to provide for their families and what does the women do? has a BS degree the husband paid for and works a $10.00-$15.00 job.
@Well, there are muscular dudes that are into overweight women so that explains. And I saw both kinds. It's not anyone's fault if you haven't.
Im my experience hot intelligent women hit on obviously successful guys more than attractive guys! The other point is they hit on guys that their girlfriends have dated where the sex was said to be amazing?
Chuckle, in the US these days it wold be more accurate to sayit’s a 90/10 rule, but you have the right idea here.
And by ‘hot’ you mean the look of his bank account. Looks aren’t important in general except for looking..
The top 20% of men is only the "idealized partner" for most women, but when it comes to real life, you can (and a lot did) easily fall in love with someone who is the opposite of your expected "Mr. Right"
Whether they want to admit it or not, it's true. Even my own tastes are "impossible", which is why I'm glad that I'm not limited by them, and never have been.
Lol no idea. That’s from 2011 right? Can you imagine it now in 2018? 😂
Yea 95-5
Especially with Instagram age, every girl has 1000+ followers they all think theyre God's gift to earth and with never settle for a guy who isn't under 6'3 and makes 7 figures.
@Armourdillo LOL. so true
Would you support legislation to put down undesirable males? Or use them for public labor?
It would boost the economy for the alpha mles and their harems
Younger girls go for the hot guys. some girls in my college are all shallow because look. I don't care much about the looks of the guys . more I am more interested. His personal.

Nope I don't care about the money.
I mean we all desire the top 20% of the opposite gender but really this is all relative to that person isn't it?
The rule is true for everyone. Everyone's first choice is the attractive person... Then reality hits.
Not sure about irl maybe 70/30 but in online dating its definitely maybe even 90% they say on tinder top 10% of guys are hooking up 90%
Are hooking up with 90% of the girls. You have to be lucky as an average looking guy when online dating
Considering 85% of men eventually get married... no, I disagree
They get married but how many are the woman first choice? How many get cheated on? How many get divorced?
And 50% end in divorce
no... the statistics are in and 85% of men are not getting married. In fact even the ones that are, are getting divorced by their wive's 1-2 years later. The normal situation for a man now is single and unmarried. Our populations in North American are going to be 80-90% immigrants soon. I hope the next generation looks at the train wreck of millennial's and learns. I see in shape 20 year olds now and I never did before, I'm going to marry 10 years younger at least.

Human behavior can't be quantified in percentages and rules
Nah, hot guys can never be with 'lights off' and 'unfortunate' girls.
Yep, it's true, check online dating rates. The top 10% of dudes get all the swipes while for gals it's a normal graph.
