Hypergamy (colloquially referred to as "marrying up", occasionally referred to as "higher-gamy") is a term used in social science for the act or practice of a person marrying a spouse of higher caste or social status than themselves.
A woman will almost always "go up" when looking for a mate. She may be a "5" but she will ignore the "5" males and seek the highest level male she can find. This makes it hard for the average male (a "5") to find a woman who won't dump him when a "6" or higher comes along. There is a Youtube videos called "Better Bachelor" that discusses the whole thing and basically suggests men are better off just staying single and staying away from females altogether.
Has anyone had any experience with this. I have...
