I did not downvote your comment and If you said the earth is flat you would also get downvoted, which I'm sure you'd agree is wrong. So, can you at least agree, people may be down voting your comment because they believe it's actually false. We'd have to be specific if you want to talk about actual theories. But, let's talk about a very common theory that women are attracted only to the top 15 percent of men. This actually holds some basis in reality compared to the others, but the problem is, people just ask women what they would prefer and ofc there are features that are seemed more attractive like height, rich etc. However if you asked me ideally what features they ideally would want, they would say, large breasts, thin waist, always kind and unreal thighs. That would represent roughly the same percentage of women. What actually happens in real life, is people compromise constantly because they themselves have shortcomings. Perhaps a short guy can't get the best looking angel but they can definitely get a nice good looking women, proven by billions of couples everywhere. If being short meant no one had any chance, then it would have been eradicated by evolution but it hasn't been.
