"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

My theory is that generally ugly people are also stupid. And we all know stupid people breed a lot more than smart people. Fvck global warming, we have the save the world from ugly idiots!
If ugliness a weakness though in the hunter gatherer sense of the word? in some cultures fat women are beautiful. Genetics doesn't say 'well now I am living in L.A a place obsessed with looks so lets make a pretty baby'. I do not agree that looks are a genetic factor. Since different places in the world find different characteristics attractive. It is as if saying because Japanese people are attracted to anime characters with blue hair and gigantic eyes you expect evolution to create people with blue hair and huge eyes.
Physical fitness and resistance to diseases are factors and personally I think the weak have been weeded out. This can be seen by the dramatic increase in life expectancy over the past few centuries. I know medicine plays its part too.
On top of this how long have humans been here? 3.5 million years at the most and that cant really be verified. Evolution takes a long, long time. Then add the fact that humans have a conscious brain, we do not just seek the healthiest mate. Our society and idealistic view of love negates most of the natural breeding process.
Humans naturally find the most compatible/fittest partner through pheromones. Today we have deodorants that block out our pheromones.
I mean there are thousands of reasons.

Ya know, it could also be because ugly people have beautiful children, and vice versa? It's not exactly like there's a "beauty gene". A lot of it is just luck.

What's considered ugly changes from generation to generation. Even Marilyn Monroe is considered "fat" by the standards of today's models who look like heroin addicts to me.
And as someone said, dumb people have more kids, whereas the more intelligent people tend to be more careful about family planning.

mainly the retardation of the weeding out of ugly people is due to marriage and monogamy being enforced in society. social constructs
Still at that, despite good looks men are able to attract mates with other qualities such as the attainment of power and social status despite their appearance.
But its definitely happening just at a slow clip, evolution is slow man. Its only been the past 200 years where we weren't enclosed in small social groups for thousands of years.
Just look at a rich college, every girl there is a hot piece of ass. Go down to the projects and your lucky to find real attractive symetrical faces. And the ones that are generally have an easy pass out.
Truth is there is that 5-15% of the population born to a different father is natures way of improving the gene pool.

Simple.
Beauty, mainly, is subjective.
Plus, it's not like only "beautiful" people reproduce anyway.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Not really. (Human) beauty has been researched using proper scientific methods, and actually there is considerable statistical consistency in what most people consider as a beautiful/attractive human. The two main things I recall from this research are that "average" (size, dimensions, etc of bodily structures, i.e. an average shaped nose) is beautiful, and symmetry is beautiful. In short, if you have a face with average features and near-perfect symmetry, then most people will consider you "beautiful/handsome".Jerry Maguire said:

Although there are proportions that have been researched, there is no such definite form of beauty. If enough people were asked, there would always be a handful of people who, for some reason of another, not find the subject attractive.
I see your point however, and concur that in an everyday realistic definition, there is such thing as a beauty which a high percentage of people would agree on.

I'm just talking about statistical significance (which, by definition, is measured objectively). Of course, there will be outliers and deviation from the norms, but your "bell curve" is most people.
That being the case, if this is what drove the train, then there should be a gradual progression towards more beauty because the "majority vote" would cause genetic drift towards "beauty". But as has been pointed out, its a little more complicated than that.
I haven't had a chance to click on that article, whatever it shows.

If you ever had to take antibiotics, that was nature trying to weed you out and science thwarting it, particularly if you were too young to breed at the time.
