To approximate the value of a man's race, height, and facial attractiveness to women, researchers uses a novel data set obtained from an online dating service. Their analysis was based on a detailed record of the site users’ attributes and their partner searches, which allowed them to estimate each user's preference specifications, taking into account a large number of partner characteristics. | |||
Some examples of their findings: | |||
* White and black women had the most expensive racial "preferences", with both strongly preferring to only consider men of their own races. | |||
* Being an Asian man costs $247,000 extra per year compared to a white man to get interest from a white woman. | |||
* Being a black man costs $154,000 extra per year compared to a white man to get interest from a white woman. | |||
* Being a white man costs $220,000 extra per year compared to a black man to get interest from a black woman. | |||
* Being 5'7" costs $150,000 extra per year compared to a 5'11" guy, or $180,000 extra compared to a 6'2" man. | |||
* Being bottom 10% facially costs $40,000 extra per year compared to an average man or $186,000 extra compared to a top 10% man. | |||
* The maximum cost of facial ugliness in the percentile ranges they were able to measure was $186,000, for a bottom 10% man to match a top 10% man. | |||
Data quality deteriorated at extremely high male heights. | |||
If these annual costs can be applied over the decades that a long term partnership would involve, one can conceive that the value of a man's race, height, and face to a woman can be estimated well into the millions of dollars over a lifetime. | |||
