I’ve talked before about how “opposites attract” is a myth. Couples pair up with people who are similar to them. This is one reason why people perceive hypergamy to be a real phenomenon: reality gets interpreted through a non-random selection filter. A person’s individual experiences are almost never representative of the whole, including one’s peers who will often share the same kinds of experiences. It is very hard to get out of a this kind of bubble, because individuals do not like being around, talking to, or spending time with people who are too different than themselves.
This is how, for example, you can—without even trying—get forums that are made almost entirely of INTJ and INTJ-adjacent personalities. It’s not chance, it’s selection: finely-crafted personal selection that is aggregated at the group level.
And so, regular readers here will not be surprised to learn that smart men prefer smart, educated women, while the less intelligent prefer less educated women.
When a man claims that men don’t like educated women, it reveals nothing about men in general and everything about that particular man’s status.
There is a strong positive correlation between the a man’s intelligence (or lack thereof) and his preference (or lack thereof) for an intelligent spouse. When a man supports or opposing dating or marrying a smart, college-educated woman who delayed marriage and children, it tells you more about him than it does about the topic he is discussing.

You have read saint Rollo’s oct 17 25 tweet where he reveals your ideological biases in you’re bubble?:
@RationalMale
Assortative Mating is just the next cope that EvoPsych apologists jumped to when Mate Switching hypothesis crashed and burned.
Assortative mating depends on socioeconomic status, not evolved mating strategies. Using marriage as a metric only reveals your ideological biases.

I saw some of his Tweets recently. I rolled my eyes.
Of course assortative mating depends on socioeconomic status! That’s one of the key components that people sort on. But since much of what constitutes assortative mating is correlated, this “objection” can’t be taken seriously.
I suppose Rollo says this because he thinks hypergamy is a real phenomenon. In a rational world, assortative mating is mutually exclusive with hypergamy.
Even ”redpill” brothers are similar too!!!

Success and failure. Wealthy people act in the face of fear. One day you’re brilliant, next day you’re brutal. Manage the way you feel in the moment. The reality I’m looking at is subjective. The first thing I do is go through what their limiting beliefs are. Replace them with empowering beliefs. Visualize ‘the life’ of success.Fear is the worst emotion of all. Every business has different states we need to master. ROOSH IMPERSONATORS ARE EVERYWHERE
LEIF.. THE REAL ROOSH EXISTS.
