Men care about a specific silhouette range, and specific disqualifing facial features, and then sometimes horrible personalities, and that is the total sum. Each one of those things is somewhat negotiable if other aspects are superior as well. And the bar lowers depending on the last time they've finished, unless it's been too long, then the bar goes back to baseline. Nobody is that complicated.
I can't imagine why you'd have trouble landing a quality relationship with that shining personality
This seems demeaning and reductionist to both men AND women, which I feel is like an achievement in itself. Well done.
It is specifically reductionist and true almost always, so I don't consider that demeaning. Everyone wants to think they are more complex or considering but most innate decisions just aren't. People just are delusional and not introspective at all.
It sounds like you have let your negative experiences taint your worldview.
It's not uncommon. My wife was cheated on a bunch, so it's very hard for her to accept that I have no interest in other women.
If you've experienced a bunch of rejection by men over your looks, it would also very hard to not assume that every man thinks this way.
Both are mostly just confirmation bias, though.
Unlike you, the smartest of the intellectuals.
