Do you guys actually believe in hypergamy

[Nodal]

it exist 100% but not like people make it out to be

women have way more available partners and men have way less options
and this is dependent on your country too

there isnt any controlled experiment that showed women actually go for more attractive men specially long term from my knowledge

its a misunderstood concept

and this is dependent on your country too

Yes omg people always overlook this
In the country im from women are literally raised to look good so “someone will marry them”
But for boys it’s just “oh he’s from a nice family and religious so just marry him”

thats just being traditional
when i said that i was referencing on the ratio of young women vs young men of the country
but that tradition could happen because of that too

Yeah the point being the whole tradition is based on hyperandry and women are expected to marry down

Yet people yell hypergamy like its a worldwide problem

I mean hypergamy def exists on dating apps, that isn’t even debatable. So even if u think hypergamy doesn’t exist irl, it doesn’t matter since most people in relationships meet on dating apps nowadays

your also over exaggerating and i understand

but "hypergamy" is real in developed nations specially
and the "hyperandry" probably just evolution doing its thing

if you marry an attractive guy of a rich one because your family doesn't care your family will die out
and the survives are gonna be people who enforced the tradition

its just nature, and it your country is prolly gonna change in the next few generations

Well ofc
In dating apps you dont know anyone much you’re just presented with their pics and some information
Anyone would choose the better looking ones
But tbh i dont even like dating apps for that exact reason

U didn’t respond to the last part though

I wouldn’t say most, it depends on the country
Even if about half meet on dating apps, using those apps is a personal choice with expected outcomes. The option to date through other ways is still there
But yeah i do agree women have it much easier on dating apps than men

 

[prxnce]

Title

Obviously. If you don't believe in hypergamy just admit your a dumbass and oblivious

 

[rand anon]

That’s the way it is in western places though, even in western influenced countries

Even if about half meet on dating apps,

It’s way more than that though, pretty sure there are stats about it

using those apps is a personal choice with expected outcomes. The option to date through other ways is still ther

Like what lol, third spaces are disappearing. No one rly sets people up with others anymore, no one wants to risk dating from work. It’s either u meet someone in school or on dating apps

But yeah i do agree women have it much easier on dating apps than men

Yeeee
