Why Are Women More Hypergamous Than Ever?

[Anonymous]

We all know that women prefer men to be the breadwinner. Still, even after more than half a century of feminism. After all the equality crap. Women still prefer men to make more money and pay for things and get on his goddam knees to propose to a woman (who will have the upper hand in divorce court). So much for equality...

But female hypergamy goes beyond demanding that men make more money. I've noticed more and more couples where the guy is thin and in decent shape while the girl is chubby and out of shape. You can see her gut from across the street...

What we have is a generation of overweight, lazy women who still DEMAND that us men be muscular, in shape, and attractive. Something is not right here. What's going on? Why are even average, chubby women STUCK UP now days? You go to the dance floor and ask them nicely to dance, and they turn their noses up and continue to text on their b-berries?

You try to start something with a fat girl only to find she has 6-7 guys lined up ahead of you? What the F is going on? When did fat average girls become on the same status as hot girls? I guess every girl now days is a superficial, hypergamous ball buster

Women all of course demand that the guy be more interesting, be able to make them laugh, be able to have a super interesting life and personality, while most times the girl isn't half that and she knows it. Yet, she demands it.

No matter how you slice it, women's standards are going up and up and up. They are more hypergamous than ever

Sorry, I tried to be objective, give things a chance, and analyze the situation. I've been around the block. This is what I see. Many guys will agree with me I think

I'd largely agree with Shaun. Women have high standards because that's what they're used to. However, since most of them don't really have anything to offer other than sex, most of the ones with high standards are just kidding themselves. Those six or seven guys lined up are most likely not going to be there unless she's putting out. Sexual liberation does get even the least appealing of women more attention, but if they want to marry (much less marry up), then they better have a lot more going for them than a wet hole.

But don't you see how destructive this situation is to society? How much of a disadvantage men are at? Remember, I didn't even mention how there are more men than women in the dating ages, so all venues are sausage fests plus online dating sites.

I very much see how it's destructive to society, but that doesn't mean it's going to change. The only women that would be willing to truly take charge and fix the situation for themselves are the ones that have already done so. Most women aren't going to take charge and make themselves a great person- at best, they're going to complain about it, maybe coupled with a little exercise. I've seen tons of "Why don't I get approached" questions on here- they want results without effort, that's all.

I agree, but the challenge of meeting those standards happened to be the best thing that ever happened to me.

All you can do as a self-respecting man, is pity those superficial women who expect so much. They will never find true happiness, and will wither away their lives in complete denial. When they are in their late 30's and living in an adulterous, unfulfilled relationship on the verge of collapse, they might see the light. Then again, most won't. But hey, that's not OUR problem.

They are used to 'marrying up'. This generation of women are going to be in for a major shock. The gender gap will reverse.

Invest in cat litter and IVF. They're on a suicide mission, taking weaker society with them.
