How is it unnaturally thin when most women looked like that less than 50 years ago?
Well, it wasn’t natural then either? I’m talking about women aged 30-45 who have possibly had children. It is not natural for this demographic to have a flat stomach.
Most men are not looking for 45 year old women's stomachs to be as flat as 25 year old women's stomach. Look at 45 year old women around the world from 40-50 years ago. That's what men call naturally thin. This Demi Moore anorexic thing she has going on is a misinterpretation of what men want. And that's if she is doing it for men. She probably thinks she looks best that way for herself.

It's so devalued that men try to force it on women and avoiding that nastiness is a top female priority. Males don't have inherent market value the way attractive women do. A man can't just sit around looking hot and expect the world to fall at his feet the way it will for a woman who just walks in a room looking hot.

I don't disagree, but do you realize that it's the same for women? Most of what women do to look beautiful is actually about what other women find attractive. (I don't mean that everyone's closeted.)
You really think other women are the ones who demand women diet, get breast implants, wear pushup bras, wear shapewear, put on makeup, get botox and all manner of "anti-aging" procedures, teeter in heels etc. Women invented those beauty standards?
Largely yes, this was invented by women. Men want a woman who looks nice and isn't fat. That's about it. Men have no idea what is shapewear, who uses botox and where it's used, and half the time they don't even know if a woman is wearing makeup or not. Same with shoes -- men only notice a woman's shoes if she's having difficulty walking in them, that's it.

Once a woman had serous romantic disappointments with a handsome dude who treated her like shi$t, she will be avoiding this as a plague. I personally can’t stand when a man doesn’t make me feel special and check out instantly,
Women also won’t be maintaining a whole lifestyle of such men . Being handsome won’t compensate for not having a provider mentality (and women
want to feel secure and protected if they look for a long term partner).
You're literally describing Alpha widows![]()

I can't read the article, but I mostly agree with this, though I do think there is *some* market value to a man's attractiveness, including height.
But what the red pill podcast bros pushing testosterone supplements don't understand is that most women are not looking for a super muscled, overly tan, agro bro with a botoxed face. Most women see a Pete Hegseth and back away slowly so they can keep an eye on him until they reach a safe place.
Men get confused about women's attraction because they sometimes get distracted by, for instance, the fervor over the Heated Rivalry stars. But women don't want to marry those guys. They just want to ogle their bodies and laugh nervously. They might fantasize about dating a guy like that but they aren't starting a life with him. I have a close friend who spent her dating years with pro football players. Her husband? 5'7", funny, works in IT, smart and practical and loves kids. If he has nice abs, I wouldn't know, as he's the kind of man who always wears a rash guard to the beach or pool.
In general, though, tall men do tend to do better on the dating market. Not every woman wants a super tall guy (I personally didn't like dating a man who was like a foot taller than me, it made me feel like a child) but most women want a man who is a few inches taller than them. But height is also the hardest thing for a man to change (not that men aren't trying, apparently).
