I don't know how I stumbled onto one of the many many threads started by what seems like insecure 20somethings who think that they will get more women by quantitizing their "worth" but let me put this to you:
Friend of mine (I am a gay man, she is a straight woman) is absolutely gorgeous. Used to model for pinup stuff, now very successful in a creative field. Looks a lot like Gwen Stefani but with green eyes and a better bod. Anyhow, this woman is getting married to a guy with the following attributes:
-shorter than she is
-makes an average wage
-average looking (not unattractive but I don't want to do him)
-drives a crappy car
-not overconfident, not a player, not got any game
-smart, quiet
-I am betting average in just about every way physically.
Honestly, she gets swarmed by men with lots of money, lots of game. hot men, successful men, etc. This is the man she chose--someone you would call a beta. She met him at work, and they get along famously and have been together for three years. She has not even *looked* at any of the offers dangled in front of her.
So how do you explain this? She isn't needy, greedy, burdened with baggage, old, dumb, or broken in any way. By your theories, this should not happen. And yet it has.

Why is this such a surprise?
She met him at work, he was probably super nice and has a great personality and treated her like the woman she wants to be treated as. They get along famously and have great chemistry. She can see herself having a great life and family together. And it doesn't hurt to know he will probably never cheat on her, because she's the best thing that will ever happen to him (according to you)...
In spite of a few people on this message board trying to act like this is an anomaly, couples like that are everywhere. There are many men who are so called "average" who are dating and married to very attractive women.
Its not a surprise at all. I agree with all you said. My point is, that from a "PUA" point of view, she is a catch that is only approachable by either someone who knows how to trick her into thinking he is worth more than he is (someone who subscribes to this PUA philosophy) or other alpha types. Neither of these are the case.
So where in all this dating worth/quantifiable alphabetaomega stuff is there any room for actual human connection? Just wondering.

Go to any public place, and watch people who are out and about. There are all kinds of couples with all kinds of variables, who aren't just settling or who don't know their "sexual value" or whatever. Of course, according to the interweb that's impossible, because only rich men and hot women ever get together.
/me waits for the bitter boylet brigade to come in and blather about how one day she's going to get bored with Mr. Average and will cheat on him with a furry-hat-wearing, bug-eyed, woman-hating jackarse like Mystery.

Dang, and here I was thinking my beaver hat was going to land me some beaver.
LOL! My comment about Mystery's idiotic hat has nothing to do with your beaver cap. We were writing at the same time.
