A rich guy under 6' is always going to have an advantage over a broke dude who is over 6'

Advantage for what ?
You can't negotiate sexual attraction.
The first thing a woman asks about a potential mate is "How tall is he?".
That's why women will marry a short rich guy and then bang her 6'2" Personal Trainer.
Besides, a tall guy can always get rich, but a short guy is forever stuck being 5'9"

Women want guys with skills.

Nunchuck skills
Bow skills
Computer hacking skills

Every women wants a guy that's 6'2", handsome, with a solid career. It's literally impossible for a woman to be sexually attracted to a short man. Kind of like it's impossible for a man to be sexually attracted to an obese woman. If you're under 6 feet tall then it sucks to be you and you're only hope is to get so rich that some woman will be willing to pretend she's sexually attracted to you in an attempt to garner your resources. It's pathetic that guys are stupid enough to think that picking up a certain hobby will make a woman want to bang him.

I'm actually over 6'2".
The #1 driver regarding physical attraction for women is a man's height.
The first question a woman asks about a guy is "how tall is he? Is he over 6 ft?".
Everyone knows this is true, you're in denial if you're pretending it's not.
Apparently a lot of short guys in this thread are getting butt hurt.
Tall guys don't have to pick "attraction hobbies" to get dates

I picked up model railroading to get away from the woman I was with.

It definitely worked as a pussy repellent.

Now that we're no longer together, I guess I need to pick up something else.

I'm currently building a model of The Enterprise from The Wrath of Khan. Whenever talk about it to my wife (no pics), I can see her eyes glaze over, which is the response I want.

According to a recent survey of 2,000 millennials and Gen Z-ers, 16% admitted to picking up "attraction hobbies" - or, hobbies aimed to boost one's attractiveness.


That number should be much higher. Try new things and put yourself out there in the real world is about the only “life hack” that amounts to anything.

At least half of the guys under 30 try jiu jitsu or mma solely for this reason.

This has more to do with listening to Joe Rogan and similar podcasts than attracting women.

I know the code for those not born rich:

1. Be successful in your career / make good money or at least be on the track to make good money if you're young

2. Keep yourself in good shape and don't dress like a slob

3. Make her laugh

4. Have good manners, especially around her friends and parents

Why are young guys today so clueless about women ?
Chicks don't dig men, maybe if I pick up a cool hobby then they'll dig me.
wtf ?
