00:00So maybe you can help me understand this because this was kind of common knowledge when I was

00:04younger, but it seems to have completely fallen by the wayside.

00:08So the average salary for a young man in the United States, sort of 25 to 44, about $40,000,

00:17which is, you know, a lot of people get married in their 20s and so on.

00:20And if you are an average looking woman, you will get a man who is an average earner in general.

00:27So if you are a woman and you want a wealthy young man, which is kind of hard, most men

00:33hit their earning peak sort of 45 to 55 years of age.

00:36But if you want a wealthy man in his 20s, then you're looking for the top two or three or

00:41four or maybe 5% of young men.

00:45And that means as a woman, you have to be in the top two or three or four or 5% of attractiveness.

00:52We men work for female beauty because female beauty means good genes.

00:57It means good kids who are going to succeed and probably be smarter since looks are somewhat

01:01correlated with IQ.

01:03So we look for attractive women.

01:06Men are visual creatures for very obvious evolutionary reasons.

01:10So there seems to have been like this absolutely wild disconnect that's gone on in the modern

01:14world.

01:15And I, you know, I'm an old fogey, so maybe you can help me understand this.

01:18What is the story with average women wanting top 2% men?

01:25Not just for sex, you know, because women can subsidize and go up two or three points in

01:30the attractiveness scale just by offering sex, but they can't get commitment.

01:34It's like drugs to happiness.

01:36You get it, but it costs you later.

01:39So what has been going on in the time that I've been off social media, really?

01:43What has been going on where average women want top 5% men and you can't really seem to

01:50convince them otherwise?

01:52And of course, the number one consideration for most women is money for a man, a man's

01:56income.

01:57The number one consideration for men is attractiveness, which is mostly weight.

02:01Almost everyone of a healthy weight can be attractive.

02:05And the least attractive thing for men is obesity because it correlates with a bunch of

02:09negative criteria that men are looking for, not just sex or anything like that, but other

02:14things.

02:15So perhaps if someone, I'd really appreciate it, like just be kind to an old fogey, step

02:19me through this thing where average women want the top 5% of men can't be convinced otherwise

02:27and aren't willing to do the work to ask what those top 5% of men are actually looking for

02:32and provided, notably being a healthy weight and being fit and pleasant to be around and

02:39so on.

02:40We're not looking for overweight girl bosses.

02:43So just, again, step me through it.

02:45I appreciate your patience.

02:46What on earth is going on that this level of feral narcissistic vanity has overtaken young

02:52ladies to the point where they think that the average somehow deserves the best?

02:56If you want the top 5% of high-earning men, you've got to be in the top 5% of attractiveness

03:01for women.

03:02I mean, how has this basic wisdom been lost?

03:05Help, help, help.
