Now hear me out. Men(not all)think they are better looking than what they really are. This is why they date up. Women on the other hand tend to think they are not all that. That's why some settle. Do you agree?
No. Dating has next to nothing to do with looks. The fact that so many people think it does is why there are so many disgruntled posters on here. That and this obsession with categorizing the genders in useless ways and assuming that the individuals that they are interacting with adhere to those categorizations.
Well, all I can say is that my husband doesn't waste any time thinking about his looks - and I wish I could stop thinking about mine! He's a lot happier than I am in this respect!

Geez Raena, that's just a bit too much of a generalization for me to completely agree.
Yes, SOME guys overestimate their attractiveness and therefore try to "date up".
And SOME women suffer body image issues and those women tend to "settle" because they don't think they deserve better.
But, it's just not so common that you can say it the way you did
Additionally, what's the harm in a guy thinking highly enough of himself to "reach for the stars"?
I see that as a good thing actually. (Unless of course he ONLY wants to date super models and is continually getting rejected but refusing to be open to other types of women).

Most men won't admit to being under 5' 8' tall, or having an appendage under 8" The latter also explains why they can't judge distance when reading maps.

"A man will marry the best looking woman he can afford."
I'm told I'm better looking than I think I am, and I think I'm better looking than I am, so am I even better looking than I think I am? I'd better look into thinking about this, or think about looking for a mirror.
I don't agree. Maybe some people do that, but I think the majority of people are just attracted to the "package" without really knowing why one guy/girl is the fit for them.
The "package" is complex. You may not be attracted to a guy/girl that looks good on paper, but attracted to someone that you never thought you would be. Chemistry is too hard to figure out or explain.
