why do guys (NT) want girls to be pretty?

It's not just NTs - it's pretty much every red-blooded male on the face of the earth, regardless of neurological persuation. Everyone looks for a good-looking partner because the first thing on a man's mind is reproduction. We are attracted to good looking people because breeding will produce good looking children who will in turn be more likely to breed and produce good-looking offspring and so on and so forth. It's basic biology and psychology, really. Nothing to it.

A lot of it is social conditioning. Look at portraits from ages past, and what different societies thought "pretty" was.

The other side of the coin is that women typically want a man who is taller than they are. You rarely see a couple where she is noticiably taller...

I'd also like to say pride is a big part of it too. In my opinion, if survival was the primary reason for choosing a mate based on looks, we would end up with the human population becoming less intelligent over generations.

Wanting an attractive mate is neither gender nor NT specific.

ALL guys(aspie too) want girls to be pretty. The reason for that is because we're biologically wired for it.

I second that.

Well, I think that the first thing on a man's mind is just getting a good root. He isn't REALLY thinking about producing good looking children EVERY time he f***s. The thought process ends with ejaculation. That is really the only goal on his mind. If he were thinking about everything involved in childrearing--the expense, the lifestyle changes--then a lot of them probably just wouldn't do it.

Yeah that's nature. I'm a hopeless romantic, but I'd still like a girl to be pretty.

You mean it hasn't?

Looks tie directly to genetics. Symmetry, proportion and complexion can indicate whether someone has an undesirable mutation so it doesn't get passed on. For example, if a hunter-gatherer is overweight with their chancy diet, the kids may be too heavy to elude predators or enemies. Men are wired to spread their DNA as much as possible to the women who will bear children likely to survive the environment of over 200,000 years ago. Women are wired to mate with men who look and act like they can provide food and handle predators and enemies from the same time period. Put them together and you get powerful men having multiple sex partners. This says nothing about the intelligence of either party. In fact, I would think the more social people would reproduce more often.

So, now I wonder if autistics in general are part of a seperate subspecies of human that bordered on extinction and so learned to mate with the other group? Homo Sapien Autisticus?

So the ugly people may never reproduce unless they find other ugly people or have a lot of money.

I’m convinced that as long as any female is willing, men will sleep with them regardless of what they look like. Everyone looks good at 2 am when you're desperate. To get a man to stay with you, you have to be good looking.

Not necessarily true considering unattractive people get married too.

Being with an attractive girl increases guys' enjoyment in major but hard-to-explain ways. Somehow, the girl seems to be fulfilling all her relationship obligations just by looking hot. It's very confusing...

(And that confusion usually means you stop thinking clearly, which leads to trouble.)

Most people lose their beauty when they become old. Being attractive is just what brings them together in the beginning.

Looks are the very first thing a person gets measured on.
If someone looks ugly, scruffy and so on, people will be less inclined to seek contact with that person.
If someone looks hot, sexy, nice and so on, people will likely seek more contact with that person or be around that person.

It's just the first method to divide a whole room of potential lovers into smaller parts.
(Second method could be the conversation, and so on.)
