I think your problem is your attitude.

Nice of you to paint all men in that horrible light.
All things being equal.

Think of it like this, If a woman has a choice between 2 guys she's likes, one plays in the Nba and the other works at Walmart.

Who is she picking?

LOL those are 2 very different extremes. The vast majority of situations (99.9% approximately) will not present themselves this way.

The average chick gets more dates from average men and the pretty chicks get more dates from men with more money

Um... neither? I don't think I would ever date a professional athlete.

But I agree with you - all things being equal - the guy is going to go for the hotter chick. Probably same with a woman in the same situation.

Certainly not. Given the choice between an average woman and a gorgeous woman---with all other attributes being equal---most men would choose the gorgeous woman. And if the man is rich he will look for a better looking woman even if he's average looking.

That said, if a woman is gorgeous but has the personality of a piece of toast or the brains of a squirrel she may not fare as well as an average looking woman.

I'm a man.

I like to look at pretty women.

That being said, I most certainly will sidetrack a beautiful woman if she is a dolt.

Some beautiful women get tons of dates, while others can't get one, one reason being because some fellows are intimidated by bombshells.

Average-looking women (whatever the heck that means) get tons of dates, while others don't.

Absolutely, why not? I have to think that the average woman with a physically fit body has just as much to offer as a gorgeous woman with an amazing body...all other things being equal.

It also depends on the eye of the beholder and his view of that is average and what is gorgeous.
