On the "looks filter" in the brains of women

Or it may not. I have several friends who are not at all objectively good looking (and a couple who are, objectively speaking, downright ugly), and who are poor/low status, etc. (hell, one is a municipally employed social worker) but whom I think are as hot as hell. Then again, I think Lance Henriksen is totally hot, so TIFWIW.

BR(also note - money often brings better clothing and/or stylists, and those factor into even fairly objective evaluations of whether someone is good looking or not. The Donald in a $6K suit is a mighty-sight more fine looking than the Donald in khakis and a flannel shirt, objectively speaking)C
I think cash often has a lot more to do with a Man's perceived hotness than a Woman's. Lot's of women look great in rags; hell, there's a real attractiveness in a cute woman in grubby overalls.

I think the reason is that cash plays a bigger role in the traditional male job description than in the traditional female job description.

Same thing with age, but on the other side - Men have an easier time being older, because we have been socialized to want woman to be young and childbearing while Men are the older providers.

For the record, all of this is Not Good (which was Not Me's given named before em changed it).

(Note to Not Good, please address any responses you may have to TM, as I, like most here, only read your posts when quoted by TM).
