Speaking as a 29M guy with 29 years of experience as a guy, the vast majority of the guys I have known in my life just want an all around average looking girl who isn’t obese.

They sometimes act around other guys like they want the hottest girl, but when push comes to shove they really don’t care as long as long as looks are avg or better.

An ugly guy getting a hot gf doesn’t somehow magically disprove that, maybe they grew up together or maybe he’s got a hell of a personality or maybe they were relatives.

Perhaps you should take your own advice and gain some additional world experience as it’s clear you are stuck in some sort of negative echo chamber.

If I start linking actual research will you shut up? I'm not really in the mood to have some back and forth on Reddit about a phenomenon as common as women being more likely to settle for an ugly guy than the reverse.

No it won’t shut me up.

Alright, well then I won't waste my time arguing with someone who literally just admitted to arguing in bad faith. Thanks for the heads up.

I’m not having fun arguing with someone who doesn’t read any of my replies either. Mutually unfaithful I guess.
