Yes I do agree there is some hard wiring. This is obvious but I don't think the men/women thing is anything as bad as portrayed on here. When I was younger I used to find a lot of nerd types attractive. In the past in some societies a lot of men would not have access to women. You can look at Ireland where the more powerful men had multiple women. This is why certain ydna came to dominate but things changed when Christianity started to dominate and then it became more equal with marriage between a man and a women. That appears to be a factor to me. In the past women were looked on as property and most of human civilisation was polygamous but that wasn't great for a lot of men. Only the powerful men had access to multiple women.

This is all true, but I'm talking about preferences for certain traits in the present. For instance no one would bat or blink an eye if an older rich man dated a younger poor woman, and he was bigger, stronger, smarter, etc., but the reverse in that situation would be about as common as a cookout with Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster. To be fair, about the other topic, I'm not sure what things are truly like for people in their early twenties since I'm not around many people in that age group. I just know that I'm glad that I'm not dating now!

The question is how relevant "turned on" is. Women and men both choose mates who allow them to have the families they want. This means they choose people closest to themselves in origin and abilities.
The insane ones of course do different stuff, but results tend to be pretty bad.

Most people choose compatible SOs. I'm talking about a swap of traditional gender roles that would be palatable to only a very tiny fraction of the population, even people who pretend that such things don't matter to them, and I say this because you can't fool Mother Nature.

You can already order a baby with PGD for 500 diseases and choose the sex. Add a guarantee it won't die in the next 2 years or it gets replaced and many other "options".

This one is based in Ukraine using the local "livestock" but many flourish around the world now. The Deluxe package with delivery in the US is a dirt cheap 150k. Anyone wants to try it?!
Sounds like disturbing sci fi but it's real. On the other hand for a civilization that kills his own babies, it's the natural progression and begnin in comparison once that has been deemed normal and in the direction of progress.
