Just a thought......
There was also a chart that says this :
"This graph also dramatically illustrates just how much more important a woman’s looks are than a guy’s."

Your neurodiverse (Aspie) score: 83 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 153 of 200 You are very likely neurotypical
Darn, I flunked.
This was also said:
"I wanted to address physical attractiveness right at the start, because obviously it’s a huge factor in how successful your profile is".
This tells me that BOTH go for looks and that's why I call it a "meat market" .

Unfortunately, that is part of human nature, to desire someone that "looks good" to others. Not everyone is like that though. Personally, I am more interested in what (and how) she thinks than what she looks like. Some of my friends think I am the super to think that way, but I am what I am.
I was thinking about this because I keep wondering how men can have sex with a bunch of women even if they are not attracted to them for a long term relationship. I really don't understand how a person can have sex like that and not be repulsed. If someone isn't attractive, the last thing I want is them touching me. Yuck.
Does this make sense or am I just rambling?
I'm tired of seeing both men and women complaining about their relationship problems that stem because of their personalities clashing and I think it is because a lot of people just go for looks.
Examples of this are my Ma: she married Pa for his looks. I've seen pictures and he was very good looking. He's got the personality of a rock and this is why their marriage has been on the rocks.
Second example : my brother used to go out with just blondes that treated him like sh!t. He married someone normal looking, a brunette and their personalities go great together.
I guess what I'm saying is people should date for awhile before sex and they may not have all the drama of unplanned pregnancies with people they don't get along with, or feel like they have to marry a person because (imo) sex pretty much seals the deal and changes a relationship. Does anyone understand what I'm saying?
I agree. Totally makes sense.
I can't really add anything, but these observations you make are like my own.

Example recently happened to me - there's a new coworker who been working with me for like few months, all the guys thought she's plain-looking when she first came (secret shallow guys talk, duh).
Her looks didn't turn my head at first too and she's married anyway with a baby girl.
But after knowing her for a while..... damn - I do envy her husband - and if she was single I would certainly would have wanted to pursue a serious relationship with this one.
But yeah I guess it's true what they say after all; the best ones get taken first.
