It makes sense that only the top 5% or 1% of good looking people are seen as strikingly good looking.

[Hightwolf]

If you think about, in everything in life, the top 5% or even top 1% or less are the only people who truly succeed in that thing.

Look at any sports team, even the worst player in that team is still probably top 1% of players in that sport. Most singers are probably top 1%, most scientific discoveries were probably made by the top 1% smartest people in that field.

Even if you think about height, many people here say the 'ideal' height is 6'3. In the United States, that height is the top 3% of people, worlwide it is probably closer to 1% since the US is a tall country.

So when people here say that hypergamy is at 80/20, or that it has reached 95/5, it makes sense. In almost everything in life if you aren't the top 1% or the top 5% at least you really have no chance. I don't say this to discourage people from trying, I think you should always try even if you are not top %, but I think it is something we need to understand.

The purpose here is to be a wake up call to people like me who think they will suddenly become attractive just because they became 'slightly' average. Sure it would be better than what it is rn, but realistically most 'slayers' are top 1% or at least top 5%. It is the same with everything in life.

Is 5% enough tbh? I think the true slayers are in top 1%

I don't know what % it should be to be honest. I just am fairly confident you NEED to be top 5%. Whether it's even less than that is debatable. The point is, if you are slightly above average, women will still see you as something they settled for. They are always aiming for the top 5% or 1% or whatever % it is.

You can, but the people who actually succeed in slaying and not being something that the women has to settle down for you need to be top 1%.

You don't have to be top 1% but you do have to be top 20% or above average in some areas

Yes pheno is very very important.

To slay u gotta be top 20% in looks at least. If u got something else going on that is, such as hyper popular or good personality.
Psl aspies need to be male model tier to slay tho, they only have their looks to fall back on

Psl aspies have been ostricized because of their looks or autism. I don't have looks so being NT is useless cuz nobody wants to speak with a subhuman

But why do you only need to be top 95% as a women, to have essentially everything and anything?

 

[Hightwolf]

Because sexual selection for males is intrasexual, while for females it is intersexual. Men have to compete with each other whereas women don't really have to to the same extent.
In the stone age the top 5% of men could impregnate most women. Most women could reproduce but not most men.

If you want to read on the topic google intrasexual and intersexual selection in humans.

Do you seriously believe that the dynamics in stone age were anything even remotely similar to what we have currently?
Women had much lower value during those times. Women were also ugly. Useless, weak. If anything, I'd argue it was completely opposite of what we have today.

The stone age situation was different from what happened after advanced human civilization. The main difference wasn't in who has what power, it was in societal norms. Even in the middle ages and other times women were just as weak as they were in the stone age, but society and religion forbid promiscuity and slutiness in general which reduced hypergamy.

Also about the value of women in the stone age, they did have high value because they allowed men to reproduce.

Now promiscuity is becoming more acceptable, which is increasing hypergamy. It isn't about which gender has the power, because even now men still have the power in society it's just that it's a small amount of men who do. It's about how much people can act according to their nature. If people are allowed to do that then they will always return to hypergamy.

You may be underestimating tbh. A lot of people are overweight, a lot or short, a lot are recessed. If you are one of those you need a lot of other positives to even reach averageness
