It appears that nowadays there’s a big denial of hypergamyamongst women, often labeling it as misogynistic or/and as an argument used by beta males to justify their failures. However hypergamy is widely accepted as an heritance from our ancestors, being common among most of the animals we come from. I personally consider that feminists are concerned in silencing hypergamy because we live in a society in which the most animal masculine traits are (justifiably) punishedby law, since you can't murder, hit or rape to prove your worth, while women can keep up by living like if the world owes them something. In my humble opinion, if more women considered fighting the impulses of hypergamy, we would have a generation of more mature and stable women, since most of them hide such inclinations in emotional bursts. That's just my opinion, what do you think? Can science offer any backup?

People are insecure about their place in the hypergamic hierarchy. Some can’t or won’t do the work to better themselves, so it’s IRL cope and seethe until each individual can trace their life back far enough to find out what’s frustrating their personal system.
Being that this entire concept is egoic, I guess it’s only fair to say that very many people haven’t found their own limits for what they actually do have control over. Buddha’s story of enlightenment was essentially his own discovery of this, with the proper main frustration being “illusion” or the transitory properties of our physical natures. The roastie will cope until they realize that beauty in the hypergamic game is highly relevant to age as an evolutionary factor. They’ll always think about how they were “younger, more beautiful, and worth more points” (t. Kinkenschema) until they stop stressing themselves out long enough to realize that the damage associated with the worry is directly proportional to the beauty they’re after. The more they worry, the less available energy their body has to maintain its youth. It’s like how a computer runs the best when it’s brand new. When the processor has had 100% resource usage for 20 years (like a woman between 21 and 41), you can probably assume it has stressed its’ other relevant or local parts from the heat damage.

These particular impulses are hard baked in and go a looong way back into prehistory. They've had plenty of opportunity to try throughout thousands of years of history and it has happened exactly zero times. The only way to combat hypergamy is to make those desires practically impossible to pursue, like all the patriarchal societies of old.

Hypergamy is not about meeting an objective standard but how desirable you are relative to the other humans around you. It is a zero sum game, either you're in the top tier relative to your peers or you are not. It may be possible for an individual to wrench their way in, but by necessity this means another man is booted out of the top tier. In other words: in a hypergamic hierarchy incels are a hard inevitability.

this also lends some explanation to why narcissism evolved. it wasn't good enough for a man to be able to provide for a woman, he had to be at the very apex of the social hierarchy. unsurprisingly narcissism is arousing to women.

Since it's bottom 30% who don't get any - if you go around talking about hypergamy you're instantly deemed bottom 30% loser and discarded. So the only option is to keep poker face and vent on anonymous forums.

You’re right, but it’s already improbable to the point of near impossibility. This in itself SHOULD be enough, but everyone still has that desire to enter the lottery after seeing the last big winner.
>by necessity this means another man is booted out of the top tier
There will always naturally be a number one or winner. The problem lies in making it your goal, because when you achieve it, you always have to watch your back for the next guy whose goal is to be the best. This causes that same inevitable ugly stress.
The only person who can appreciate being number one is the person who doesn’t know that they’re it.
>Transitioning will certainly solve the love and sex problem of the average beta male
There’s no way this will solve the problem that made someone desire to transition in the first place. They’ll just realize that what they thought they wanted wasn’t all that they expected because they’ve still got other problems. I guess it’s like bandaging an amputated arm and calling it the cure to arm pains.

>feminists are concerned in silencing hypergamy
I believe this is the case, but I am not sure if I fully agree with your reasons to why this is. There certainly is a discrimination against men and masculine values of various kinds, some of which are prosocial or at best neutral, others which definitely are not. And the bar for what a man must do or be to win a woman over in the game of reproduction is raised. Both before and after conception of the child. At the same time, more is expected from women. Not only are they given more responsibility and power over reproduction (it was more cooperative before), partially by the introduction of contraceptives, they are also expected to work more, be more financially independent and/or be powerful and disproportionally prosperous in the same way that men have been expected to. Feminism both expects and helps women to adopt the responsibilities of men while not reducing many of the existing responsibilities of women, and it confuses and exhausts them. Most men on the other hand are loosing even more than before in terms of reproduction (increasing sexual dimorphism). And it is made even harder for the male to rise to the few and decreasing prosperous positions (increased disparity of outcome) partially because women are now also "competing" for them (they get some help, that is, men are discriminated against). It is not clear to me how I can compute which of the gender is loosing more in terms of quality of life, but clearly men are loosing even more than before terms of sheer reproduction (stats are clear on this). Thus a minority of the response from feminists might not be denial of this effect (majority is denial, ignorance or willful deception), but rather a cry that women are suffering more as well.

>> No.11337304 [DELETED] 

And this is why I don't like this men vs. women way of looking at it, at least not when it is the only perspective that is presented. Because I believe some parts (not all) of the modern feminist project has been hurting us all.

>In my humble opinion, if more women considered fighting the impulses of hypergamy

That would require them settling for less which to a degree is unreasonable believe it or not. Without even getting into the inherent selfishness of the women in question a woman who wants to bring a child into the world at least desires highly fit genes or abundant resources to care for it if they can't achieve both. That's a desire that applies to females across multiple species.

The main issue with hypergamy in human society is that the average man loses out because they are mediocre in all categories. They are neither highly fit physical/health wise nor have abundant resources. So they are immediately put in forth category to...

1.)men who are both fit and wealthy, 2.)men who are wealthy but unfit
3.)men who are fit but not wealthy

A man mediocre in both wealth and fitness should not expect to be a highly desired mate. Even in the most traditional cultures where the parents decide for their daughters they will not choose a person in deficient in either category as a sound mate unless left no choice.

Only sufficient wealth is needed, more than that doesn't afford much in terms of fitness to hold a family together. Previous societies aimed for that level, as opposed to outrageous wealth or bust. Of course, as usual, they'd choose the best out of eligible mates, but they didn't choose between no marriage whatsoever and 11/10 adonis with pockets deeper than the ocean. They also strongly weighed the potential mate's personality (honest? criminal? vices?) which clearly don't affect women whatsoever.
Women don't seem to go after wealthy men anyway (except gold diggers) so your hypothesis can't be true. They also don't care in the slightness about fitness (healthwise), only about appearance thereof (e.g. >>11337664 it's all about "being handsome" which, for example, has nothing to do with how much you lift, your heart rate at rest, your rate of illness, previous injuries, ability to defend the woman in real life, or anything like that, purely facial genetics and height).
It's very common for women to go after broke criminals living in ghettos, so clearly wealth's not on their mind. The criminals they go with are also rarely particularly fit nor attractive (they tend to be outrageously unhealthy, and above average looks). This is completely inconsistent with your model.

It's not like we're talking about marrying a princess descended from heaven to the town idiot who's been living in the streets all his life because he was born with down's syndrome.

Your definition of sufficient wealth and a women's is different. Yes, making $40-50k a year is adequate for a family. But a woman will desire more than that.

>Women don't seem to go after wealthy men anyway (except gold diggers) so your hypothesis can't be true.

Wealthy doesn't mean obscenely rich. I'm not talking about millionaires/billionaires, I'm talking about +$100k salaries that Engineers, Lawyers and Doctors make. Any of those three occupations are wealthy compared to various positions in janitorial, retail, education or trade work.

>They also don't care in the slightness about fitness (healthwise), only about appearance thereof

Even if that was the case (which it isn't, women don't usually want sickly babies) physical appearance is still associated with health. An obese man is not physically fit, attractive or healthy. So the average woman is not going to prefer a man in such a state.

>The criminals they go with are also rarely particularly fit nor attractive

Have you actually seen how fit the average criminal/ convicted felon who's been to jail is compared to the average person on the street? And yes, the average criminal isn't attractive (face wise).

>>11337817

>and women aren't? in fact what do women bring to the table other than their wombs? little to nothing

The problem is that the womb has literally been the gate keeper to our species survival for thousands of years. Maybe when we perfect artificial wombs they will have to step up more but until then that's all they need right now. Women know this so outside looks (to hook you) they aren't really interested in bringing much else for you.

>Women don't care much about fatness, moot point.

You're telling me that the average woman doesn't care about if their prospective mates are obese with possible complications including diabetes? Are you trying to trick me. The only way fatness is not a factor is if they are wealthy. But if they aren't wealthy you bet your ass they give a damn.

I mean the only area where you can argue that hypergamy actually exists is on dating apps, and even then it's a stretch. The second you actually try to argue that hypergamy actually happens on the regular outside of said apps, the argument falls apart.

Men don't marry and impregnate a harem of women, unless you're in a cult. Spend any amount of time in a major city and you're going to see men on the lower end of the beauty spectrum dating attractive women - and not all of them are rich and/or influential.
