Folks,
This is a comment to a recent video by Strong Successful Male on YouTube. SSM is a GREAT YouTuber! He puts out a lot of interesting content, and I'd recommend watching his videos.

SSM, I LOVE your channel and your content! Today's episode was good as usual. Now, for a couple of points. One, what the 46 y/o interior designer forgets is that the guys she wants have options; as you pointed out, they can get the 20 somethings who are hotter, nicer, and more agreeable. Besides, no guy, especially a successful one with options like she wants, is going to want to put up with her attitude. Her letter to Market Watch gave a glimpse of her attitude, and any guy with any sense will say NO THANK YOU; that goes double for the guys she's seeking! WTF would they pick her, when they could get someone who's much more desirable? Why?
Now, as for how many guys even have the Triple Sixes (six figure income, 6' or taller, and with a six pack), they're small portion of the population. I'll crunch the numbers in a minute. First, let's look at the percentage of guys in each category, shall we? The % of men earning a six figure income is 22%. The % of men who are 6' or taller is 14.5%. Finally, the % of men with a six pack is about 2%; while I couldn't find an official study confirming that, the 2% figure popped up in my research, so we'll use that.
Now, how do we find the % of men who have the Triple Sixes? How do we find the number of men who meet all three criteria? Well, we crunch some numbers, of course. To find the overall probability of finding a man with the Triple Sixes, we must multiply the individual probabilities together. Mathematically speaking, this looks like: 0.22*0.145*0.02=0.000638. To get the percentage, we multiply this by 100, which looks like: 100*0.000638=0.0638%. Rounding that up, we get 0.064%, or 65 ONE THOUSANDTHS OF A PERCENT! Ah, but we're not through yet...
To figure out the approximate number of men who meet all three criteria (six figures, six feet, and six pack), we must crunch a couple of more numbers. The approximate population of the US is 330 million; if we divide that in half for the number of men, we get 165 million. I know that there are slightly more women than men, but we're just doing some quick and dirty calculation here; we're looking to illustrate a point: female delusion. SO! We multiply 165,000,000 by 0.000638 to find the overall number of men who meet all three criteria. Mathematically speaking, that looks like: 165,000,000*0.000638=105,270. That's right; out of 165,000,000 men in the US, only 105,270 men have the Triple Sixes. That's a SMALL number, Guys! Ah, but we're still not done; there's more!
The 105,270 figure assumes that all these men (i.e. the ones who are Triple Sixes) are all available and are all seeking a relationship. Common sense tells us this isn't the case; common sense tells us that many women will find these men desirable, and will therefore lock them down; IOW, many of these men will be unavailable. Being generous, let's assume that half of these men are off the market; it'll probably be more, as many women will want these men, but let's be generous here to illustrate a point. Mathematically speaking, this looks like: 105,270*0.5=52,635. That's right: out of 165,000,000 men, less than 53,000 meet the Triple Six criteria. When we consider that there are about 165,000,000 women in the US, competing for those 53,000 men, those are LONG ODDS! To put it another way, each of these Triple Six men has 3,135 women to pick from. IOW, women have 3,135:1 odds of finding a Triple Six man.
These numbers, of course, bring up some questions. Why should one of these Triple Six men pick the average woman seeking him out? What makes HER so special? What does she bring to the table? How DELUSIONAL can modern women be? All I can do is shake my head in response. Those are my thoughts...
