So you know what your league is and what you should stay away from. Also, if you are a 6 or below, stay away from online dating.
At least for me, it's about minimizing rejection.
Stop thinking so much and just make a few moves in your life, you go for a hotter woman out of your "league" whats the worse that can happen... I get that rejection stings and I was never a huge player guy but you gotta be in it to win it.... see below post.
I don't walk around with a sign on my head reflecting my personal beliefs. All I know is that I don't typically attract women unless I try really hard....and I never attract women online.
But that stuff comes out. You may not realize it, but you probably advertise it a lot more than you realize.

Be that as it may, I didn't always feel this way. I actually used to be more on the feminist side of things when I was younger. I haven't noticed any change in my attractiveness to women since adjusting my viewpoints. It had absolutely no effect on anything.
I'm sorry but I'll have to disagree. I've always thought that this is highly subjective and simplistic. In reality, it's much more complex than this and there are a lot more factors. Personally, I've never really been approached by a woman. However, I've had some gay men hit on me. Granted this was when I was living in Miami which obviously has a high gay population, but happened nonetheless. Also, I've been on a dating site for two months and gone on five dates. I think some people are really too obsessed with this number rating.
While this is logical and seems like sounds advice... it's actually not.... life is about risk and reward, not just in terms of your love life, but all facets of life....... the metaphorical roulette table........ you have to be out there to reap the benefits...
The "risk" is the risk of getting the proverbial "sledgehammer to the groin", but the rewards of experiencing all the pros of opening yourself up to love and connection and all that goes with it.....can be a full life.....
Put it this way... yes.. you can be safe huddled in the cave looking at the reflections of life via the fire on the wall, aka the allegory of the cave, or are ya gonna go for it....
You got to be in it to win it.......
Yeah, but wouldn't it bother you to know that that woman allowed better-looking men to date her with far less effort and, only because those men treated her poorly, she settled down with you?
Well, it bothers me.
I'd rather have someone in my league that values me than someone much better looking than me that settled for me. So that's why I only hit on women in my league. Even that doesn't work a good portion of the time.

I have gay men hitting on me fairly often too. I always assumed that that means that I'm feminine looking or that I look like an easy target or something.
I seem to enjoy over-complicating things. Just ask my husband.
