Have not pondered this much at all. I am OK looking as a man so If i was a ravishing woman i would probably be a "Man eater" like the Whole and oates song..
Wait, it's Hall and Oates. it is Hall and Oates right? Not Milli Vanilli?
Women are attracted to looks more than men. In my experience, a woman is more likely to go for a man who makes OK money and is tall and good looking rather than for a man who is much better off but is not as attractive. In most cases, if a man is physically unattractive, a woman won't even look at those other 'assets'.
So why then is all the beauty and cosmetic surgery catered towards women if women chose men based on looks as you say? In other words, if women chose men based on looks, guys would be walking around shirtless and young 25 year old men would be the cream of the crop, for example.
Edit: I failed to mention, however, that women do consider ethnicity when choosing a man. I mean, race is a very serious issue for many women because they simply want to be with their own race and produce babies that look like them.

Some Asians, such as Koreans and Chinese, got that way because they chose to follow after Europeans.

Men choose women based on looks too. They're just less picky.

yeah, less picky about personality traits, a woman can be bratty, boring, bitchy, have no life, be easy, a non-challenge, have no passion or goals, and still attract men

Like some of us said, so can men.... There are even a few women out there who don't care how moronic those pretty boys are, once they open their mouths to speak. They simply ask them not to talk when they're out in public.
I disagree Braunwyn. Women are mostly attracted to what a man can DO FOR HER, rather then what the guy looks like. And in close second, women are initially attracted to the type of personalty a man has, such as; leadership skills, charisma, charm, or humor.
No, it's simply not possible for that to be the case. Initial attraction, for those who have eye sight, is based on physical attraction. A woman cannot know what a man will do for her initially. His charisma, charm, and sense of humor will come second. And finally, what he can do for her will follow.

Sure, if a man has good looks, it will be taken under consideration, and it's definitely the icing on the cake if the guy is already rich, but overwhelmingly, women are looking for men who can offer them upward mobility.
I suppose it depends on the space you're coming from. There needs to be significant disparity between the genders for your argument to apply. It's not so much the case among the privileged and accomplished. It may be the case for the lower, less educated classes.

X, Y X traits but you can't even list them. Look, men are very lenient when they lay out the specific requirments for a female consort.
I stated X, Y, Z to not bore the reader. Their requirements were generally typical for their ilk- educated, compassionate, creative, etc.
I know, right. Now, if only you could get the "twins" to settle down.
Well for women, there is such thing as bras, a.k.a. over-the-shoulder boulder holders.
For men, we have boxer briefs, a.k.a. under-the-butt nut hut

Everyone is attracted to someone who is good looking. But good looks alone does not a long term relationship make!
