As usual we're all looking for the black and white answer, where there are actually several answers to the same question.
The top tier of women do get a lot of attention; but rarely do they get the type of attention that is gong to get them tingling with aroused desire. Social media mirrors real life perfectly. They have a bunch of no-hope 'followers' who support and compliment their banal wittering, telling them all the obvious hackneyed nonsense - men literally acting like women. Sure they approach them but will soon fold by telling them how 'amaaazing' they are in every respect, then continue in to the next decade 'talking' to them as 'freinds' about all manner of irrelevant cr@p, until they eventually feel comfortable/drunk/sexually frustrated enough to spew their real 'feels'. At which point he ultimately gets 'LJBF'.
Then they have the attention from the one real man in two hundred (if that); he runs clinical ZFG game, whether knowingly or not. He doesn't give a sh!t about her social media BS, her sporadic flirtations with other inadequate men, her am-dram lifestyle, because he has a bigger things going on in his life than her last meal/new flat/trip to the fckn shopping centre. Indeed, he doesn't even care if she ups and leaves. All the while that her dedicated followers are blindly following, 10/10 has been casually banging alpha males who treat her with the same indifference as the rest of the alpha females that he's fcking. It's not that love doesn't exist between the two of them, it's just that the alpha male know how to control the frame.
So yes, mot women above even a 5/10 get a lot of attention. But what they don't get a lot of, is the right kind of attention.
Can't remember who said it or where, that I read yesterday: telling a beautiful woman that she is so is like telling a rich man he is rich. It's stating the fcking obvious.
I was looking at this standard 5 this morning on the tube. I couldn't help it because she was sitting right opposite; she just had this 'I'm all that' kind of silent manner about her, not really looking at anyone, but glancing around in to the middle distance, like 'Look at me everyone, with my badly drawn make-up, expensive handbag and cheap clothes. She think I am checking her out, clearly a solid 3 SMV points above her, but this haughty attitude - borne primarily from too much attention from average men and tinder desperados - this attitude would implode if I had actually got up and introduced myself.
I actually find hotter girls easier to approach. They don't have this unwarranted high opinion of themselves that average girls do. They genuinely know that they are a cut above the rest but it doesn't (usually) affect your interactions with them if you treat them like you would everyone else.
Earlier in my journey to work, there was a solid 8 sat in the same seat as the standard 5. At this point I was just reading my book and genuinely absorbed. I scoped this bird when I got on, but otherwise payed her no attention. The train stopped and I look up. Eight is staring str8 at me. She acted all coy (non-verbally) for the rest of her journey, pretending I wasn't there, but still trying to check if I was looking out the corner of her eye, because she'd been caught out earlier. This is the type of bird I approach.
Women don't reject all men. They only reject men who put them up on that pedestal.
Successful men must attend to women like everyone else, but they do so in the right way. And not too much.
