For years, we've thought of the Pill as a miracle contraceptive for regulating our periods and preventing unwanted pregnancies, but now we have good reason to believe that the Pill affects our attraction to others as well. According to a new study…

Possessing more alpha like traits is always an advantage over possessing more beta like traits.
When you're doing stranger approaches, either at bars or non-bars venues, you're not going to know who is on birth control vs. who is not on birth control. You're not going to know which women are near or at ovulation, especially with day game. With night game, there are some helping cues with that. Women who make exaggerated movements on dance floors are more likely not to be on birth control and near ovalutation. Skimpier outfits can serve as a cue as to who is DTF, possibly due to a lack of birth control and ovulation.
I have spent a lot of my time in warmer climates, so the skimpier outfits idea is more difficult to apply, especially when doing pickup at non-bar venues. Possibly women who are more DTF wear skimpier shorts at the gym/fitness classes.
Swipe apps take away any ability to judge birth control status. On a swipe app arranged first date, it is going to be challenging to determine birth control and ovulation status, possibly even more so than a stranger approach because you've got perceptions now clouding your judgment based on the interaction from behind an electronic screen.
Yes, birth control might be why
@Genetic Error made the initial comment about pretty boys and twinks.
Over the years, the majority of my sexual partners have been using birth control at the time I met them. The interaction ceased before their birth control status changed in most cases.
The common path for most men in mid-sized to larger metros AND when dealing with women or with a BA/BS degree or higher is that they meet a woman when she's on birth control. They get the bang, an extended relationship forms, they proposed marriage, and then she goes off birth control either while they're engaged or soon after the wedding day.
The path is similar for men who meet their longer term girlfriends while in college, the relationship survives college graduation, and the couple makes a life together in a new city post college.
I agree with your idea about her going off birth control prior to a long term committment. That can be challenging to make happen in real life.
While I think a change in birth control status can end a relationship and possibly speed up the ending of a relationship, the real thing that ends relationships is the passage of time. Women's preferred mating model is medium term serial monogamy, which looks like monkey branching in the real world. A woman is bound to lose interest over enough time, regardless of her birth control status.
The advantage of being more alpha than beta is that this process slows for an alpha. A man that is more alpha will get a longer term relationship out of a woman before she gets bored. Additionally, a more alpha male becomes more likely to leave the relationship before it gets really bad. With a beta, either a woman will leave sooner due to attraction loss OR she suffers attraction loss but doesn't leave and instead makes his life miserable while he lacks the guts to leave. The relationship becomes a painful experience until one of them comes to the realization that nothing can be done to salvage it and it ends. Usually it is the woman who realizes this.
