The closer the men were to the androgynous look, the faster she approved

Too masculine and she swiped left or whatever it is

And the more in the middle they were, the longer it would take for her to decide

It got to the point where my friend could accurately predict how long she'd spend on each man

I've noticed the same thing in my female friends. A preference for androgyny

I think it really depends upon the woman, tbh. and what they are looking for at whatever point in their lives . iirc on whatever studies have been done on this, i could be wrong but I thought the tendency was for more dominant appearing masculine men to be approached more often for women that just want sex currently, or short term things, whereas women looking for more serious long term relationships tend to go for lower testosterone lookin dudes because they likely would make better caregivers for future potential offspring as it were, and less likely to be promiscuous . I think you really cant make that inference just based on your friend group alone, i think its more dependent on the case by case needs or desires of the individual woman .

and ofc individual sexual selection preferences

you cant tell me for one instance that brad pitt even by his looks alone , not just fame or fortune coudlnt walk into any bar or social gathering and not walk away with a chick on each arm by virtue of his good lucks or charm . but again it all comes down to what they want i suppose

Interesting choice 😄

if androgenous men were the norm I'd be drowning in pucci . I mean I guess I;m not as androngenous as I used to be but still

i enjoy what few masculine qualities i have expressed physically

and wish to be beefier

AAS use in men does not cause sterility or baldness

you only go bald on gear if you were going to go bald anyway

Besides, moderate dosages of test just bring you up to normal function compared to your ancestors

Necro you got a lot of attention when you were andro

And I don't mean to be a kill joy but there's a lot that can go wrong between being approved on tinder and actually ending up in bed with a girl

Tru

@Wiz There are two main types of women in humans

Two main types of mate selection

You mean tournament vs pair bonded?

Yeah exactly

pair bonders select for andro more

I'm aware, yes

so he was observing a pair bonder in action

Probably a part of it, yes

The sexual selection of human beings has been so heavily diluted that there's no real set style anymore

So it's almost random at this point

Rather incompatible with browsing Tinder for 4 hours though, no?

Nah

Tinder is just a thing that people use to find mates

You mean the style of selection is random, or the selection itself?

the style

Society is changing

the way humans select for each other

the gene pools been so heavily mixed in most developed nations that humans interact in increasingly strange social patterns

I'm pretty sure it selects for increasingly feminine qualities though, in both sexes

because society requires you to be less antisocial for it to function

which is an overwhelmingly male majority quality

at the moment its kind of a free-for-all though

Well the selection process might have that element of randomness to it, but overall promiscuity is going up
