The author of this, while somewhat intelligent and witty, comes across as incredibly insecure, which probably explains her steadfast "athletes-only" policy. This thesis was simply a means to brag about sleeping with popular kids.
I would wager that she was an ugly duckling growing up, and now sees college as a time to "prove" her desirability. Of course, the easiest way to do this is to sleep around with jocks.
Being passed around like that isn't really "empowering," though, despite what some female readers seemed to glean, because she's giving up her value without receiving any in return. It's just not natural for a woman to have NSA sex like this--I would imagine that if any of these guys expressed a desire to have an LTR with her, she would've drop the whole "thesis" altogether.
This is the difference between 6s and 10s--the 6s will often place MORE emphasis on looks than 10s, and also be more willing to give up their value (sex) before the male. 10s will make you work more and won't give the kind of compliance that she gave all those dudes--you need really solid game to get that. Her prerequisites to getting laid had NOTHING to do with game, and everything to do with looks and status, which is consistent with the behaviors of women with insecurity issues.
The thesis is hardly a "smoking gun" in the debate about whether looks matter--we might as well come to the conclusion that varsity sports matter, by that logic. You don't need to be an athlete to get girls, and you don't need to be in perfect shape--it's just helpful. Looks matter to a degree, but MUCH more so to a girl like this, who is hardly the type of woman you want for a girlfriend.
