Why, even with the rise of people who looksmax since it became mainstream around 2021-22, is hypergamy still a thing? One might argue that a few trying to improve won't change the world. They'd be right. Truth is, no amount of looksmax will ever eliminate hypergamy forever. Why?
Because of your genes.
Looksmaxing, especially the mainstream kind, is drenched in redpill culture. But the redpill is fundamentally flawed. It bases itself on looks, money and status as the basics to attract women, but money and status will never matter as much as looks. You can barely see those from how one appears (a middle guy can look rich, and a rich guy can look poor, after all) but you see looks immediatly. That's when the blackpill comes in: genetic determinism. Looks, more specifically genetics, are everything, and it doesn't matter how much you try to improve, how hard you work, you'll always be behind people who are genetically gifted. And the most genetically gifted people of all are tall people.
Tall men will always have the edge. Tall men are seen by females as more dominant, stronger, and more able to defend them. Due to the rise of social media, there has also been the demasculinization of shorter men (note, shorter, not short, short men have been seen as inferior since the dawn of time), and apparently these days, men under 6 feet (if not more) are deemed automatically subhuman.
At this point, you might say it's obvious. But really, at the end of the day, the heightpill is the blackpill itself:
height is purely genetic, and decided at birth.
There is no gym for your height. You can't improve it without surgery, and even then, men who get LL are seen as insecure and so inferior - also, women will know, and they still won't want you because your genes are still the genes of a short man.
Women will never want a short man. It doesn't matter if you're chad if you're 5'6. The taller man will stand next to you and mog you to hell, and women will laugh with him. No amount of face will make you immune to being seen as weak. Short height, to women, is feminine. And nobody will change that. Short men have the chance to date if they're extremely good looking - but it will never be a looksmatch, and even then, you STILL have to be genetically gifted to be good looking, and it's extremely hard to win that lottery and be in the .1%, because you need to be REALLY good looking to date as a short guy.
So, what can a short man do? Is it totally over? Well... Yes. In 99.9% of cases. But there's still a chance, albeit small. Limb lenghtening. "But you said women will know!" Yes, they will, of course they will. If you tell them, and especially the women you know (in your social circle or in general people that have seen you at least once in the last 2-3 years). And the only way to escape that is going away. Leaving the place you've lived in your whole life, or have been living recently, for another place. I'm not saying to fly to Thailand (though that's not a bad idea) but maybe to go 400km away from where you live. And how do you do that? With a shit ton of money, let's be for real. So, at the end of the day, a short man has only one chance in his life if he wants to have a foid: moneymax, get LL, and run away from people that know his original height. Maybe the redpilled guys weren't so wrong about money
That's what bad genetics bring to you. Good luck trying to fight your way through that 0.1% chance.
Note: if you live in a third world country and/or are too poor to get LL, it's over.
