'''Hypergamy''' is the natural inclination for women to "[[branchswinging|trade up]]" in terms of [[LMS|looks, money, and/or status]]. In the scientific literature, the term refers to economic status only, but in the [[manosphere]], the term is used more broadly regarding dating up in ''all'' status dimensions relevant for mating (social status, educational status, looks etc.). The combination of [[liberalism|liberated sexuality]] and [[gynocentrism]], creates a situation where women surpass men in many ways, rendering more men unattractive to women and also liberating women from having to settle for a partner of equal [[SMV]]. The result is more [[inceldom]]. [[Marriage]], monogamy, and other forms of arranged partnerships were possibly, in part, culturally evolved [[Egalitarianism|egalitarian]] adaptations for counteracting hypergamy. | '''Hypergamy''' is the natural inclination for women to "[[branchswinging|trade up]]" in terms of [[LMS|looks, money, and/or status]].

Women are constantly calculating whether the gains from a new [[relationship]] will off-set the losses of leaving an old one, and constantly analyzing the value of their partners relative to the available pool of men. Women judge social expectations as a cost when leaving a partner. Modern society ceased to ostracize promiscuity, so women are more likely to [[Marriage#Move Toward Polyamory with Rise in Divorce|jump ship when ready]]. | Women are constantly calculating whether the gains from a new [[relationship]] will off-set the losses of leaving an old one, and constantly analyzing the value of their partners relative to the available pool of men.
