they aren't
No one said to date people you are not attracted to
The problem is that Western women have a very narrow range of what they deem attractive
BTW attraction definitely isn't as important as you make it out to be. The vast majority of the world does not consider it when choosing a spouse and they tend to have a better culture of marriage.
Quite frankly, the person you were attracted to for the first 5 years you met them may not be the apple of your eye years down the road. It should not be a tier 0 priority when choosing a spouse....not to say it shouldn't be considered at all.
I think ya'll are stereotyping Western women with convenient internet themes.
I could easily do the same and say all western blk dudes are only attracted to lite-skinned Instagram hoes but that's unreasonable. If u can understand that blk men have a myriad of different types they are attracted to then you should be able to see that the same is true of blk women. I swear stereotypes kill.
The truth is people are projecting the popular narratives of a loud minority onto an entire demographic. And because nobody is actually interacting with the opposite sex, a lot of this is based off other people's stories. I hear the same phrases again and again. But repetition doesn't make it real.
There are no real universals that women or even men like. Human attraction is waaaaaaay more complicated than that.
Also I think attraction is very important but it isn't merely based off looks the way it's been emphasized in recent years.
Attraction is made up of damn near millions of factors: the way somebody smells, their body language, how comfortable they make you feel, their voice, the ease of their actions, their energy (is it dynamic, is it subtle, is it overflowing, is it restrained), their intellect, their sense of humor, common interests, ability to understand you, sex appeal, sensuality, the way they flow and move, their laughter, the levels of their happiness...and on and on and on.
But men and women in our society oftentimes overlook partners with these attributes because we are socialized to care about looks. I think it's part of a larger plan to sabatoge human relationships period to decrease the world's population but that's just my theory.
Encourage people to pick partners based off shoddy foundations like whether or not she got "free-spirited p*ssy" or he has a nice dyck print and watch the world burn.
Meh. Just my thoughts.
