Genetic status is king; the status associated with the immutable genetic features of a male’s appearance is the most important factor in his ability to attract women. After this socioeconomic status is weighed. Women’s attraction to a man is less about him looking imposing and more about him seeming as if he could help her mog other females. 50 years ago, even 20-30 years ago, women didn’t value physical stature nearly as much because these traits weren’t as associated with status as they are today. In the past you just had to be taller than the girl. Today you have to be taller and more than most other guys. It’s not as set in stone as you think.
