Well the facts of life is that some people are more attractive by standards set by the current society than others. In the old days fat women were more desirable because they were considered coming from a wealthy family that could keep her fed, and that she was deemed healthy when food supplies were short and medical almost nonexistant.
Some men and women are born with bigger attributes that are considered by the opposite sex to be more attractive. That is life and genetics. Some are born with physical deformaties which puts them at a disadvantage (speaking to physical attraction only) to say a model but I have met a few with attractive partners.
So while you may not be attracted to a sly woman, there is some out there that are. Even so, beauty is only skin deep and dating someone involves the whole package. Many beautiful women know they are beautiful and are high maintainance. Many men may not want to deal with that.
I am no Tom Cruise or what ever actor/model is currently the most popular. I am ok with that.
Perhaps you are not ok dating anyone that does not look like a model, but I consider that pretty shallow and in the end may only end up hurting you.
It is a whole package. Would you prefer a trophy wife that would divorce you if you gained weigth, lost your job, had a rough time in your life, or would you prefer someone that will stick with you in sickness and health for richer or for poorer that may not be as attractive according to society?
I think many women that are thinking also think the same way (more so than men), will this man support our family and stick by me, not cheat on me etc.
The thinking of highschool kids is all about looks (and maybe that is where you are at right now), but when they enter into the real world they find out one way or the other, beauty is only skin deep and that looks fade pretty fast.
Like a poker game, life deals you hand, maybe good, maybe not so good, it is how you play the hand you were delt is what is important. Just because you have a good/bad hand doesn't mean you will win/lose.
If on the other hand you are just looking for sex with a hot woman, I think men have an advantage because it really doesn't matter what you look like. If you watch the show the pickup artist, they take some unattractive, fat, geeky guys who's by todays standards are considered unattractive and get them dates with pretty hot women. If that is your thing, watch and learn.
