The bolded part seems to be more of the case here than elsewhere. College is much more entrenched in American culture than elsewhere (not that more people necessarily go, but it's where people seem to reminisce about a lot more).
If people are not meeting through their own social networks elsewhere, than where/how are they meeting?
I'm not sure what this has to do with the point. Beautiful people, for example, prefer to date other beautiful people. I don't think this can be helped.
I'm not really all that beautiful and I've dated many beautiful women.
The point of the OP went right over your head (unsurprisingly). It's not one quality. It's who you are as a person, which encompasses the gamut. eta: Make no mistake, the quality of women attracted to you do not exceed your own level of quality. You are delusional if you think otherwise.

They need guidance. Unfortunately, many on here seem reluctant to take any.
Sure, this thread is so stupid and yet so difficult for many to grasp. And not taking guidance is also an aspect of the point. When you look at yourself, you don't just gaze into your own eyes you look at what you're doing with yourself; what is working and what is not working and why. You don't look at your neighbor or some woman down the road to figure out what she is and is not giving you and assume why. Christ.

Hombre, if memory serves me, you're European and we spoke about this before, I believe.
Again, that is the point. Nobody is entitled to anything just because they want it, contrary to the many recent threads on this forum. How is this complicated to you people?

The article you're talking about notes this:
Quote:
Guys, however, are less concerned with their own looks when deciding whom to date, the findings suggest. So while a man might have no qualms about going after someone much better looking than he is, a woman will tend more to choose partners with compatible looks.
So, if I were a man, and beautiful women were choosing to be with me, then I'd be thinking I'm good-looking.
