Don't confuse attraction with interest.
What is attractive changes from one woman to the next, you MUST pass the physical attraction test to have a shot, what 'passes' depends on the woman. If her standards are high, and you are average looking, then you are an ice cube in hell. For most women you have to small good, be pleasant looking, with decent clothes.
Now if you have male model good looks, she will IMMEDIATELY have high attraction for you... if you open your mouth and prove you are an idiot with no other social redeeming traits, her attraction will drop, if she learns he has no goals and is broke, with no chance at financial success.... he's finished.
Attraction for a woman is based on three things, Looks, Money, and Social Status (AKA LMS), She will expect a certain level for each characteristic. If she has her own money, then she probably doesn't care how much you have, but you better be able to deliver Social status and Looks.
How you appear physically will say a lot about you. If you are handsome, have a nice suit, and drive up in a BMW, how that appears is that you have acceptable levels of LMS. After she talks to you and she learns that is your only good suit, and your BMW is a rental, and you blew your weekly pay check on that rental, her attraction will drop.
Once she confirms you have LMS at sufficient levels for her, then male strength characteristics can raise her interest level, or lower it, if you are weak.
