Aren't looks an indicator of genetics? You are just saying what some book said to me. We are attracted to indicators of health not the actual health. A tall guy is always more attractive than a short guy even though short live longer.

We are, in part, attracted to what would have been indicators of health in the ancestral world. When you take human beings out of the ancestral world and place them in the modern world, "attractiveness as a proxy for health" doesn't necessarily work anymore.

Also, health was not the only or even necessarily the most important factor that mattered in the ancestral world. Other important factors were things like status, political ability, etc.

Also, sexual selection can give rise to expensive ornamentation that doesn't have any direct use (such as the peacock's tail) by processes such as the handicap principle and the Fisherian runaway.

just spoke to a woman from dating app over the phone

her perspective , she has to feel physically attracted to the other person first and foremost, everything else is secondary. She complained about being catfished.

Come to think of it , every time I have been lucky , it’s initially down to them fancying me in person.

And 0 women find bald attractive. 0 women find short attractive. 0 women find ugly faces attractive. You can't fix it either. It's over for them.

its not entirely true though. There are some girls that don’t care about hair but yeah majority do.

it’s just you need to do 2x the work to seduce girls than if you had hair.

one of the most shocking thing to me about hairloss when I let it get to be Norwood 6 is the utter lack of eye contact from girls. Even when I was balding, diffuse thinner without much density I would get a lot of eye contact and interest from girls. Now they avoid eye contact LOL

I always made fun of bald people, it’s hilarious I get to be one now haha and the way society treats you is so weird
