Whenever the topic of Looks comes up, particularly regarding the Looks Are Everything truth, it seems that average/medicore and below men reflexively post photographs of wildly successful yet unattractive men posing with their gorgeous wives/girlfriends with the idea of disproving everything, and renewing their own hope of one day seducing a top tier female. The usual list of celebrity men that pop up here include Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Donald Trump, Howard Stern, and others. Obviously, none of these men would be dating world class beautiful women if they were only earning $50k or even $150k per year. In fact, if they were earning $250k per year their current wives and girlfriends would have absolutely nothing to do with them. Their women are with them because of and only for their fabulous wealth. Nobody on this forum falls into this category. Those men do not represent your demographic so stop posting their pictures.
Now it is safe to say the above mentioned income range-$50 to $250k per year- is where the average American man falls. At the lower end, strippers and escorts will part him from his money, as well as low level sluts from Tinder. Guys who are in the six digits income range will be exposed to slightly higher status gold diggers who will certainly date and may even marry an average or below looking man because he will pay her bills and give her money. This is known as "BETA-BUX". Meaning, men are throwing money at women generally ABOVE their punching weight in return for otherwise unobtainable sex. The pitfalls here are: 1. The woman is most definitely going to cheat on you with more attractive men 2. You will be the recipient of your gold-digger's sex sparingly and infrequently. 3. The sex will be terrible because she is turned off by you physically 4. Eventually, because you are paying her expenses as well as your own, instead of getting that money into a compound interest portfolio, real estate investment, crypto, etc, you will go broke and your sexy wife will drop you like a hot potato. So that in a nutshell is BETA-BUX, and these women are generally in their thirties and at the tail end of their window of opportunity.
A brief word about ugly billionaires, celebrities, athletes with beautiful wives: it doesn't end well for them either. The wives usually have separate rooms and harldly every give them sex (Trump/Melania) and a very expensive divorce is inevitable. However, these men have the means to pay for a divorce and still live in abundance. Most men in normal society suffer financially in divorce and must lower their standard of living.

Very true, most guys on here think they are hot shit because they dated and married a 5/10 30 years ago, or they can score the odd 39yr old woman if single.

Yes, but regarding the business of constantly copulating with high tier females in the 18-27 age bracket, week after week, month after month and so on, the men here will stare blankly as if another language is being spoken.

If Sir Bicep invested as much time actually pursuing a woman as he does writing these posts he might even get laid.

I don’t know about that. I rarely see a hot girl with a good lookin man. Most hot women have average guys for some reason. Not all of these guys are rich either.

What you interpret as a 9 or 10 female is closer to a 5.

The hotness is the only currency some of those women have. If a guy is on an equal hotness level to the women (no homo) then the woman brings very little ammunition when it comes to power dynamics within the relationship. She either accepts she is inferior in the relationship and takes up a submissive role or she dates an ugly fella who she can getaway with acting like a spoilt brat with.
The ugly fella isn't without hope though. If he can make the hot bitch fall in love with him then he has a chance of asserting himself again and make her more submissive.

It's not subjective. It's based on science backed statistics. Most average/medicore men don't like it and fight it tooth and nail. The put up pictures of ugly billionaires in the company of beautiful women. They harken back to their own storied high school/college days and recount their alleged romantic conquests with rose colored glasses. Looks Are Everything.

You spend a lot of time analyzing dating graphs and charts.
No alpha male would every do anything remotely like that. 😂
Women probably don’t like you because you’re boring, and you’re not fun to be around.

Typical post from a mediocre man who can't give up the fantasy of hope. He feels that around the next corner- after the latest keto diet/ab routine/HIIT/haircut etc- he will be able to seduce a 10. "If wishes were horses beggars would ride".

No clue, but he's got talent I'll give him that.

I studied psych at uni and they did studies on these kind of things and one that was interesting to me is that each person likes and feels more comfortable around those that look like him. For example I'm tall, slim and athletic and of all my friends throughout childhood onward, I've always like those who were like me the most. I had fat friends, short friends, non-white friends but I was never as connected with them as with those who were tall, blue-eyed, slim, athletic guys. They also said that romantic partners usually match with each other as far as attractiveness goes, ie. 5's match with 5's, 8's match with 8's.

the type of dude who prides himself on being married, brings up his wife when you talk about strip clubs or having a fun time with hot women (which usually involves some sort of illegal drugs)
one uppers or the types who feel like they are doing the “right” thing in life
usually the dudes who glorify marriage -
you meet the guys who have been with their wife since high school - they usually have a business or something they have stuck with money wise that long
but then i think of Jay Cutler and Kerry - it all went to shit but the money was there ??

The "Pass/Fail" system.
I use the Yes/No system. ;D
Would you hit it?
That's all that really matters.
A 10 to me is not a 10 to you. If they don't have dark skin/hair/eyes and born south of the USA, they aren't getting above 8, except for very rare exceptions. If a girl has blonde hair, that's -2 points immediately.
When i was in Venezuela for two years, i saw legit 8's and 9's walking around all the time! But most people here would probably classify them lower, since my lust for spicy Latina's makes me a little biased.

Actually there is an exact and specific science regarding human attraction. What the average/mediocre man excitedly refers to as "solid 8's and 9's" are more likely low tier 4s and 5s.
Regarding this business of south of the border women: Chasing foreign women is classic beta behavior: Squander one's life savings to bring the mail order bride stateside and all the attendant legal proceedings and paperwork. Marry her against his parents' better judgment. And the second she gets her green card (24 months) she is off to the races cheating and looking for a better looking man.

Let's see these 10's you are pulling in left and right, stud.
I'll share mine if you do. ;)
We can have GB decide who pulls the best ass.
But i know you won't.

Publishing photographs of women you are orbiting or otherwise financially entangled with is meaningless. This is a discussion of betas throwing money at higher tier women in hopes of buying the woman's love. Photos of these kind of women are a dime a dozen. When you don't need to fly out of the country to get a girlfriend, you will have made progress.

So that's a hard no i guess.
Oh well, i was looking forward to seeing these 18 year old models who come after you on a daily basis. ;D
Ever been with a good Mexican broad?
Asian bitches aren't bad either, but too boring. I always wanted to bang a Japanese lady. Only experienced Vietnamese and Chinese, very boring. Had a one night stand with a Blasian, half black half Thai, but she was a nutcase. Met her at a bar in San Diego 11 years ago.

I meet a few Viet gals - alll were from Hanoi//Ho Chi Min City
really cool to hang out with - they just hate sitting in front of tv's - they like being out and whatnot
only girls Ive ever met who never had to shave their legs
they did get kind of strange after corvid because of the racist shit but those girls weren't boring imo
I dated a half Chinese/japenese gal once - she was batshit crazy at the time, real quick to fight other bitches, yelled/talked loud in public , bad rice

I dated a girl from Da Nang, she didn't have hair anywhere but on her head, eye brows and coochie. Never shaved her legs in her life.
She was really sweet and nerdy, but didn't drink or enjoy social things. We dated for almost 2 years. Her family hated me because i was an American. It was a weird dynamic, they respected America but hated the people. She had came over here when she was 16.
I worked with this Chinese broad from some country side town. Same deal, cute and nice, but so boring it was unreal. On Friday nights she would rather paint her nails for two hours than go out. We dated for a few months and it was a waste of time, but she like sex. ;D
Bad rice! LOL! The Blasian i banged once told me she got arrested for assaulting a girl with her shoe. That's some bad rice.

had an asian stripper take her heel off in my car and puncture my windshield - must run in the sauce
with the Viet gals tho, I really enjoyed my time with them - at that time in my life I didn't mind not going out - BUT she didn't have a tv, they watched the piss out of Youtube tho
we walked around a lot, she'd cook and it was good - but they stored most of their food in those won-ton soup containers, she'd eat like seaweed chips or shrimp flavored somethings that were god awful and she had eaten a lot of diff types of animals and shit like snakes, bear, tiger, frogs, birds, tofu that sits around for fckn months and ferments - but my moms family is country as hell so it wasn't that much diff from shit Im used to
but the sex was awesome and Viet gals seem to solve my anxiety probs, momentarily at least

It's the Nuoc Mam.
I remember her eating fermented fish and shit like that. Pork intestines and blood added to her Pho. Her family all had the worst breath i've smelt in my life. They ate some of the nastiest things i've ever smelled. That Durian fruit that i could never stomach. The would cook an entire pig and pick the meat off the head and ears at the table. She brought the entire head home from her mom's house once and stuck it in the fridge.
She was a very caring and down to earth person. Treated me like a king 90% of the time; would do anything to please me.
Very calm, she is the one who took me to a Buddhist monk to help deal with my anxiety.
She was 7 years older than me, i left her because she insisted on getting married and having kids. I was 28 and had no interest. So i moved on.

I've never fucked an oriental but a stripper that once graced my lap for a few songs had the worst breath that I've ever encountered. It wasn't cigarette breath either. Perhaps you've uncovered what it was. Thanks.

This American man just married his 25 y/o girlfriend. They have a 45 year age gap. He is a pauper by American standards living on a meager $1400 a month SS income in the Philippines. He has no pension or any other savings or investments. Yet he looks like rockstar here in this country ... I could tell many stories like this

Opposite actually. They are always happy to pimp their girlfriends/wives/daughters/sisters to American johns in exchange for money. Most of these so-called "brides to be" have several American incels on the hook. When "round eye" shows up, it's pay day.

If they are getting married they will only be getting his money. I knew of a guy in the US who married a Filipino and brought her here. He paid the family every month and they lived very well back in the home country.

So would you agree that if the female in question being discussed is not a fit female 7+ then it doesn't matter? Many of my friends brag about their conquests and I tell them it's all dogshit unless she is a fit 7+, basically only 7+ counts.
