Don't believe the HYPErgamy

Women are hypergamous. Right? Okay. That means that they are looking for men who are stronger, taller, smarter, richer. Okay.

Men are on average stronger than women on average. The average man untrained can bench press roughly twice as much as an untrained woman. So there's that. The median height of a man is five foot nine. The median height of a woman is five foot four.

Until about seven years ago, more men pursued higher education than women. More men had degrees than women. So there's that. Only about 6% of women earn an income equal to or greater than a man across all occupational distribution. So in other words, it would be very difficult for a woman to find a man who was not taller than her, stronger than her, more educated than her, and richer than her.

But I suppose if she doesn't, like, do the work and make the effort to find a man with whom she can marry down, then that proves hypergamy. Right? It's really ironic to me and amusing that these pro male, pro man red pillars seem to completely remove male agency from marriage. Roving bands of predatory hypergamous women are just bashing them over the heads and dragging them off to their caves in forced marriages. Why are you taking the man's choices out of this scenario?

It's an accepted truism in the online red pill community that women control access to sex, but men control access to marriage. If the man doesn't propose, nobody's getting married. So who do women marry? They marry who marries them. This is a man controlled process throughout.

That's even the case for non Muslims, but it's even more so with the Muslim community. The wali of a girl is the one who's actually making hypergamous decisions on her behalf because women don't have the common sense to be hypergamous. So the wali typically is gonna be looking for a man who is taller, stronger, smarter, richer than his daughter. That's what we would all want for our daughters, isn't it? Because that's male logic, that's male thinking, that's male practicality on their own without the intervention of a wali.

And this is probably one of the reasons why Islam gave the wali so much authority. Because left to their own devices, a woman, you know, she's gonna fall for some slacker who writes soppy poetry. She's gonna fall for the bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks. She's gonna fall for some smooth talking romance scammer. In order for women to be hypergamous, they need to be guided by men to be so.

Drop this idea about hypergamy. It's ridiculous, and it's insulting to both sexes.
