I'm a big believer that nature dictates that no matter what your looks, a certain number of women WILL be sexually attracted to you. Nature allows you a little bit of wiggle room. I've seen so many exceptions to everything that's being said on this topic. While looks can definitely support your cause, there's always your female genetic equivalent.
There's a LOT more going on than what's being talked about in this topic, but I'm just going to scratch a tiny bit of the surface. The majority of time, when men are having difficulty, it's for one or more of a few reasons. 1) He behaves in a way that is annoying and scares the woman away. 2) There are women who are initially attracted but then he does something through his behavior to kill the fire that was there and misses an opportunity. 3) He has some attractive traits and his overall behavior is making her feel more attracted, but his timing is off.
His timing is off and he's pushing too hard and trying to go too far at the wrong time. Once you've learned to observe female behavior and interest level and also understand timing, then it becomes incredibly easy. There are plenty of men, rich, poor, tall, short, outgoing, introverted, quiet, over-the-top, humble, arrogant, smart, and dumber than a bag of rocks, all having sex.
While I'm saying that physical attractiveness, whether it's through naturally good looks, or just dressing nicely, is a factor, there are enough female equivalents out there. A 3 can find a 3. A 7 can find a 7. An 8 can find an 8.
If you're a 5 you can easily find 5's. You know realistically that a 6 isn't that much better than a 5. So a 5 can get 6's and even the 7's.
This is actually pretty common. I've seen it over and over and over. It's not quite as bleak as you men here are making it out to be. Realistically, nature gives you some wiggle room + or - 2 points. 5's can realistically get 5's, 6's and 7's. This applies to men or women.
While there are some behavioral and entitlement issues among women, realistically, the numbers don't allow for them not to pay attention to their genetic equivalents + or - 2. Now, if you're a male who's a 5, of course the women who are 1-4's are easy pickings. So if you're a male who's a 9, the 1-8's are going to be easy. The 9's and 10's are your genetic equivalents + or - 1. Your natural tolerance is + or - 2.
Nature dictates above everything else. The species has to propagate itself and it's within her biological imperative to do so. Nature's rules, not mine. This is actually good news though, for the guys who think it's worse than it really is.
