Some women i work with are only looking for 666 men. 6 foot, 6 pack, 6 figures. All early to mid 20s. Very picky when they are not the equivalent. Online dating doesn't help male self esteen either. Then if one girl dates someone like a barber the others make fun of her. Like geez ppl layoff.
It's a conversation no one is ready to have because of how much shame surrounds it.
Women do care about status, period. Maybe some men do too as well, but I personally don't.
If you aren't rich, attractive, young, assertive and confident or charming then your status is simply not as appealing to women. Period.
It goes both ways also, you always hear about how men expect women to be like they see "in porn" or whatever. No one talks about how women expect men to be like the love interest in hallmark movies or w.e kind of erotica women consume.
Fortunately I'm not in the dating scene rn but I bet you no one is happy with the arrangement and both men and women need to humble up.
