The thread isn't about interest. It's about how the upper tier of men get fewer messages than the average-slightly above average men.

guys are supposed to do the looking anyway. Most women aren't the ones who ask the guy out. If you are attractive it probably is intimidating.

I don't think that's true because I received messaged from lots of Coyotes. No intimidation at all-lol

Women typically find more masculine men more attractive, and that's a function of testosterone levels. However, while those men are physically attractive, high testosterone also strongly correlates with lower fidelity. (This is all based on many scientific studies, BTW, so I'm not making this up.) Perhaps women seeking a long-term relationship aren't contacting these guys, because they are perceived to be unreliable mates.

From a psychological perspective (as opposed to biological/mating), it could be that some women are intimidated and figure the attractive men already have plenty of prospects, and want to take advantage of their popularity. They are less likely to commit.

So, from these two different perspectives, the most attractive men may in some strange way be seen as less desirable. Women more interested in short-term flings may be more likely to contact them, though.
