What Women Want -Seriously
* Selectivity
Since women risk an enormous investment as a consequence of having sex, evolution should favor women who are highly selective in choosing their mates. As well, whether a woman chooses a partner as a sexual playmate, or a long term mate, she is conscious of the fact that she will have to be vulnerable to a degree with the person in order to enjoy the sex act. Therefore, the willingness to be vulnerable and involved sexually has to be present, and selecting the right person to do so with is important.
* Generosity
A generous mate who is willing to sacrifice his time, energy and resources is likely to benefit the woman, her offspring and contribute to the woman's future fertility. With all of the thousands of differences among men, why do women value some characteristics more than others? Why is generosity more important that a cleft chin? Why do women not ask to see a man's toes before their first date? Some attributes are granted more weight than others, and one of the most scrutinized attributes are a man's resources and social status.
* Social status
When looking for a mate, women place great value on education and professional degrees, which are both strong indicators of future social status. Also important - how people who matter view her mate, and whom her mate knows who is of consequence. This includes a her mates extended family, friends, and associates. How likely are these people to help her mate succeed in future endeavors is the burning question.
