Only one problem: There is no shortage of average or even decent looking men that are willing to date an unattractive woman. On the other hand, both unattractive and attractive women seem to only want to get with attractive men and the former will end up settling for average. This is simply because men are wired to find a large number of women to be attractive, while women are biologically wired to be attracted to the top men. Hence, there is absolutely no reason an unattractive women would have to settle for an unattractive man given this fact.
Please don't trot out the alpha male vs beta male argument as to explain this... I've seen hundreds of plain Jane's with plain Joe's....... women that aren't that desirable have to "settle" as well, so that argument is just silly.....

That doesn't contradict my post in any way. More than likely, most of those plain Jane's settled and would trade in their average Joe for an attractive man easily if given the chance.

"Settling" means a very different thing to women than it does to men. I believe there's a certain cutoff in just how a low a woman will go, and once she hits this point, she would rather remain alone for the rest of her life than get with the men who are below that absolute standard.

Rather than support your flimsy arguments with anything of substance, you're now resorting to personal attacks. Nice

Suppressing the need for actual intercourse with women is quite easy.

Suppressing the need for human companionship is a bit more difficult. That is the reason most people get married. Not sex.
