Have you looked at groceries on the shelf? There are all different sizes and flavors of coffee, ice dream, cake mix, beer, pizza, candy bars, etc.

Have you looked at car dealerships?
There are large and small cars, different colors, different makes and models.
Yes, but the dating world isn't like a car dealership. Attractive people can't be mass produced; there's a limited number and so there's a lot of settling going on.

Cases may be different, sometimes women choose their own uncertain men also prone to alcoholism and other problems.

Agreed. People will settle with the best they can get. If they are not happy with the best they can get, then they don't settle and remain single.

Women differ in the details, but generally have the same behaviors and respond to same things. It's all based on psychology. Kind of like knowing market trends.

That sounds like a pitch from a PUA site.

Women are also often wrong, marry bad men. Agresivny and sadists.

But women are so arranged, they pay for confident men, gangsters and criminals such as much more confident than usual man.

It's not though. It's a lifetime of experiences and observations from good ol' Cristo on City-Data that is not trying to sell anything.

Women are genetically programmed to seek good providers who are the strongest and healthiest men they can attract. Back in the day, this meant they could go out and bag a bear to keep the family in food, or have a bountiful crop.
The modern translation for this is we want men who are smart, funny, considerate and passionate about their work.
A man who owns a fleet of garbage trucks can be just as attractive as a lawyer or doctor, the point is that he is strong and capable.

You dont have to look at it as settling. A relationship will only go so far based on looks alone. You can miss out on some really awesome relationships from people if you are judging based on looks alone.

Some people prove to be more attractive, emmotionally and mentally, than a plastic man with a bulging wallet will ever be.
