Hypergamy: Difference between revisions

Researchers suggest that relationships are naturally more likely to occur the more broad array of resources a man has compared to the woman.<ref>https://d-nb.info/997448148/34</ref>  

This is due to the fact that men desire initiating sex with the average person of the opposite gender much more than women.  This gives women almost all the power in sexual matters, part of what is broadly referred to as the, "principle of least interest".  The person with the least interest in initiating something chooses when and on what terms that activity will occur.<ref>Waller & Hill, 1951</ref>  As women are the sexual selectors, when they sexually reject men they are sexually commodifying '''themselves''' with a certain exchange value relative to who and how many men they reject.  Sex, in the absence of [[Sexual Marxism|Sexual Marxism/Fascism]] then becomes a, "'''female''' commodified resource for social exchange", in which a, "broad range of valued goods", are competed for by men in order to, ''purchase'' sex from women with this broad array of (often non-monetary) resources.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016748701630277X</ref>  Females compete with each other to, "sell high", in the form of withholding sex,<ref>Baumeister & Twenge, 2002</ref> slut-shaming, and gossip.  Whereas male sexual competition takes the form of amassing the "broad range of valued goods".  When men compete in terms of resources and women raise the resource cost of sex, this creates a situation where the men with the most resources get the most sexual access.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016748701630277X</ref>  Women, being the sellers of the sexual access they collectively commodify as much as possible,can choose '''whenever they want to have sex''' by merely accepting a buyer or lowering their price.  Whereas men must engage in the work necessary to amass the resources required to buy what women collectively commodify if women refuse to submit to [[Sexual Marxism]] or give sex away for free and without discrimination.

Men's social status also accounts for 62% of the variance of frequency of copulation opportunities.<ref>https://doi.org/10.1017/S0140525X00029939</ref>

Mixed results in existing relationships and marriages suggest that relationships have mostly already passed the hypergamous filter, i.e. already mostly fulfill the condition for the man being the most valuable man available which also may not only be decided by the measures of power differential used in the studies (income and education status), but rather by physical dominance, physical attractiveness, peer popularity and occupational prestige. Power differentials in marriages are seen as unfavorable in Western culture which may negatively affect such marriages.
