Kinda bordering a strawman here, but if I said

why are men attracted into the airhead type?

there would be bunch of dudes saying they are into intelligent women, and that it's just hollywood.

(Sidenote props to the artist for drawing all those people one by one)

Incelligence is a heck of a term.

Also, this is just plain wrong.

Some women are attracted to intellectual minds.

Some women are attracted to physical strength, some women are attracted to maternal instincts, so on and so forth.

The problem is this question is usually being asked by someone who thinks that responding to every factual statement with an inflammatory counterpoint qualifies as intelligence.

Why are dudes like this.

Women are individuals who’s preferences differ from person to person. But forget all that for a second. Women are just not attracted to men who are DUMPY RUDE ASSHOLES. NOBODY IS. These dudes make so many excuses to not work on themselves.

Dude lamenting women not being attracted to intelligence checks out as he use a picture that clearly focuses on a woman's intelligence.

At least OP said women and not "females".

So success in life means actual intelligence? I disagree with that.

Success ≠ actual intelligence.

Plenty of very successful people who are complete morons.

Women are attracted to success, regardless of actual intelligence.

And of course this is a generalization. Women are not a monolith.

Ah yes, how to succeed in life in a fundamentally broken society that values exploitation over everything else. Couldn't think of a better metric for choosing a partner.

Speaking of juicy mammoths, who's the lady in the picture?

women are people with choices

they make different choices

"That's a suspiciously long reply about how Hitler could have succeeded with dates and sub plans. This is all hypothetical right. Just a thought experiment?"

I mean, that's a fun take but realistically there are plenty of women who put a lot more stock in looks (just as men do) an immediate financial ability.

That jock who got a job that's physically demanding might be making more out of high school, but the IT nerd who went for they education and got a good tech job was likely on a slower burn path to self-improvement with better pay, possibly improving looks over time (or at least less of a beer belly). At least before AI started killing the tech sector again, so maybe the jocks will be coming out ahead for awhile.

Also, there's also nothing wrong with being a good dude with average intelligence who works hard. Just don't pick an red-hatred idiot. And intelligent nerds who don't learn social skills can absolutely still become nasty incels.

What about the women that is into pepe lore or WW2 theory?

I cant decide if there's more or less of them than the ones that's into 4chan incels?

Hey... my Pepe folder has been collected and curated carefully for decades

most women i know are more attracted to a character or intelligence than anything else. i know a couple more "stereotypical" women as well. like one girl which disagreed a potential boyfriend just because he is driving a small car. and i can see a big correlation with their background/upbringing

If you can give kindness to strangers: you are successful
