re: Shortage of economically attractive partners for unmarried women to marry

My dad has a theory on that. Lawyers marry other lawyers, teachers, etc and often have offspring that follow them into the profession. Doctors marry the first receptionist with big tits that makes eyes at them post residency and they end up with offspring that aren’t capable of following them into the profession. Growing up a lot of doctors kids I knew were frick ups.

It's dependent on too many contexts. For men, it has to be a matter of adaptability, as even a sub-optimal mate is a mate. For women, in evolutionary terms, such adaptability served no purpose.
