I see it quite often so I'm not sure how rare it is.

I've seen plenty of hot chicks with dudes that make you go WTH???

Maybe the guys have some serious game, much to most guys chagrin, it's not always about looks with women, matter of fact I'd venture to say that women overall are probably more forgiving in the looks department than men are.

I meant humble in the sense of not having much. I should have said it differently.

I'd say that's true but barely. Women are almost just as much about looks as men are.

Also, a lack of options is a driving factor. I've been on my HS reunion page and I cannot believe how many ugly guys have married decent looking women from my small town HS in Virginia. In DC, girls have a lot of decent looking dudes to choose from.

There's a break in the logic here.

If we see hot chicks with men that aren't their equivalent and we see them pretty frequently, how is it that women "barely" care about looks less then men??? Couldn't we extrapolate that women might be a bit more forgiving in the looks requirements????

My whole life I've seen hot chicks with dudes and I've wondered what the hell.

I've hardly ever seen really studly looking dudes with sloppy looking women, of course it happens, but not nearly as much as the other way around.

Maybe the guys have some serious game
Maybe the hot chick doesn't think she's all that attractive so she sells herself short

Well, you quoted me saying "...although a man successful in any field can have the same effect" and then ignored that I said it.

"Humble circumstances" is a euphemism for "low income," not psychological viewpoint. The person's circumstances are humble, not his personality.
