Exactly. I doubt that the equivalent of Bill Gates was getting laid in 12,000 BC, unless he invented fire or something. Even then, he probably got thrown into his own fire by the 12,000 BC equivalent of Dolph Lundgren.

Yes, but because they aren't dependent on men, "who they find attractive" can just be a guy they enjoy being with. It doesn't have to be a guy who can kill a mammoth, win a rock fight, or survive a plague.

But in a lot of cases that's still who they find attractive. That and bill gates. Lol

A lot of cases, yes, but not every case or even most cases. (Thankfully for guys like us.)

I've struggled with dating and my best guess for why. (Keep in mind this just my guess, I'm no expert lol) a lot of the single girls I met, were single for a long time. Meaning nobody was what they were looking for, aside from a few guys that wanted FWB. I don't know, but I'm gonna guess these guys they liked were also liked by many other girls.
This is exactly what I've been saying. In general, women like the same kinds of men and will only settle with someone not like that when they become desperate.

The men that you describe in this post do this because they can. Most guys can do this kind of thing, but they will have to put in a ton of effort. The top 10% don't and can get whoever they want. That's my point.

Women don't find nerdy, intelligent men attractive unless that guy is also great looking. So I agree with you that more attractive people are more likely to reproduce. In fact, I read that 10% of children born every year have a different father than the woman's husband. These fathers are the same men, the good-looking guys, while the provider husbands think that the child is theirs.

I don't think that the future of our race will be all good-looking people though. Remember that just because both parents are good-looking doesn't mean that the child will be good-looking. They could take after an uncle or something lol.

Damn, even on this forum I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone quite as hell-bent on selling the world on his, "I'm a loser and nobody wants me" narrative as you are. If we all agree with you, will you go away? By believing it, you've already made it true for yourself, anyway, so I'm not sure what you think you're going to gain by convincing us of it.
