This seems to only apply to looks.

People have a problem with an ugly person hitting on an attractive person. But, there's nothing wrong with a dumb person hittong on a smart person.

Why's that the case?

And do leagues cancel out? If you're ugly but very smart then are you in the same overall league as an attractive bimbo?

I agree. It has also been applied to education, background and economic standing.

Frankly I don't think anyone that is highly intelligent is going to bother with someone who isn't their equal.

I'm not talking about the men who pick out trophy wives like Donald Trump.

If someone is less attractive but highly intelligent they may find someone who's on the same intellectual level as they are. Why do you think someone who's highly intelligent should or would necessarily choose looks over intellect?

There is no such thing as a league system.

Of course, as anything else, there are exceptions: when the people are very beautiful, or very wealthy, or both.

Then we are talking about the Economic class system, not league.

I've always thought it would be fun to join a bowling league
