Precisely. Humans are what they are. 10,000s of years of selection ensured that we see mostly what worked in the past:
- our male ancestors who were attracted to young, healthy, fertile females bred more.
- our female ancestors who were attracted to powerful males with resources lived longer, and their children survived at higher rates.
To bitch and moan that this reality is not fair is a waste of time. Humans are not saints, they are merely a living reminder of what worked in the past, plus a bunch of genetic randomness that may be filtered out by natural selection in the next 1000s of years.
