I ask this question since im developing a personal theory. And im interested in hearing other peoples perspectives on the matter. Also, it'd serve as a good way to see if my theory is complete water, and everyone else thinks it anyways. Let me know.

I think it's genetic factors such as desire for dimorphic features on males which only the top % of men have. Also evolutionary factors such as desire for protection that stemmed from the ice age or some shit. I'm short it's in their biology to always search for the best and cherry pick the best % of men. Also with social media existing there are tons of more attractive people being seen on a daily basis through some scrolls on their phone and that impacts their standards for everyday people because attractive people are so much more common on social media than in real life. But I want to hear your personal theory as well.

eggs more valuable than sperm, thus women have the immediate high ground. because of this disparity, since they're the ones choosing, its only logical to choose someone more attractive, desirable, or valuable in whatever way you wanna define it. hypergamy is just the logical conclusion of the disparity between eggs and sperm

I think hypergamy does well exist, but my theory on the twink invasion will eviscerate thats shit. But most people understand hypergamy,solely focusing on total facial aesthetics and SMV is good. But when society changes with time there are many good aspects mostly women are hypergamous for. For example,since nowadays the need of constant survival is low and a thriving on top in stable environment is common. Some people say status is cope,but using this example many are hypergamous for status too. Not only money,but social positioning etc. And I do tend to say “vibe” is ideal,because at the end of the day you must be warm to the one you’re attracted to and make her attracted to you. Yes physical development and facial aesthetics play the most major factor. But my ideology isn’t structured blackpilled,it’s everything,average or not. So either you have nothing,are just average or decide to climb to the tops in all key aspects.

Hypergamy relevance:
1.Facial Aesthetics and physical development. (Height included)
2.Status (social,financial,presence)
3. Shallow personality (traits that stick out immediately)
4. Good mutual understanding
5. Deeper personality traits.

But on a easy note,at the end of the day not every foid will have the top 5%,you’ll still have many options.

Mandy solution to hypergamy:
Date men

I’ll be honest I like both genders but I don’t unironically promote homosexuality whatever. But I simply think because men have way more ground mutual understanding and relatability that they can form a deeper and more optimal bond with eachother than lesbians or straight relationships. Something that everyone can envision and that is that it’s almost as if you have a more enhanced best friend in a sense,you eat chicken wings together then crack the next and that solid.

Also,
Male+Male relationships: 24% divorce rate
Male+female relationships: 51% divorce rate
Female+female relationships: 73% divorce rate

I just think this shows that I actually prove a point with a deeper bond,and this also shows that women are the main issues in divorces.

women narcistic and egoistic propaganda, "you are enough, you are beutiful, and other things", build a sense of narciscism in women and i think this causes higher standard in everything they think they "deserve", i can see that many replys are much longer but too bad im not reading them, so sb could have already said it

Primal need in women for protection and to be taken care of. Sadly in today's society that translates to height and money
