it's a bad example tho, it isnt hypergamous for me to say i would date a stacy, its hypergamous if i only want a stacy. Thing with people that are hypergamous is that they think they deserve one thing and not the other. Like what
@foidslayer said, if u you had the opnion for a million dollars, would you take it? Or would you reject it because you think u deserve a billion. Same thing goes for woman, if you said, "would you date an ltb?" i wouldve obviously said yes, dating a ltb is better than nothing. What you think is hypergamous in dudes it's really just them picking a good option. Most girls are hypergamous because they only want chad and most settle for anything under it.
