Or rather those that are on the 4-6 PSL (averageness) are too struggling to secure the life they were meant to live. It won't be too soon until we have more average looking guys piling into the Incel forum. Because they'd come to a realization too, that their struggling to get with their looksmatched. There's little benefit for them to get with their looksmatched, because the relationship isn't bound to last forever, as its known that nowadays women are demanding more than ever. There's been a report of college-educated women struggling to find the men they want... (unrelated) but there's also been some report that the younger generation as of now is having less sex (yes it does seem unusual in the day and age of online dating). I'm guessing most of its demographic loss stem from the 4-6 PSL fellas having less sex. Whilst those in the upper echelon form of attractiveness are probably having more sex than ever.
A study denoting the nature most of what "average" looking fellas are facing...
"If humans are sensitive to the costs and benefits of favouring kin in different circumstances, a strong prediction is that cues of relatedness will have a positive effect on prosocial feelings, but a negative effect on sexual attraction. Indeed, positive effects of facial resemblance (a potential cue of kinship) have been demonstrated in prosocial contexts. Alternatively, such effects may be owing to a general preference for familiar stimuli. Here, I show that subtly manipulated images of other-sex faces were judged as more trustworthy by the participants they were made to resemble than by control participants. In contrast, the effects of resemblance on attractiveness were significantly lower. In the context of a long-term relationship, where both prosocial regard and sexual appeal are important criteria, facial resemblance had no effect. In the context of a short-term relationship, where sexual appeal is the dominant criterion, facial resemblance decreased attractiveness. The results provide evidence against explanations implicating a general preference for familiar-looking stimuli and suggest instead that facial resemblance is a kinship cue to which humans modulate responses in a context-sensitive manner." ~ DeBruine LM, source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16024346
The study had male and female participants matching in terms of what they looked like.
They had to rate their trust-worthiness of each other. Also long-term and short-term ideal relationships.
Well it is shown that those that are looksmatched rate positively on trustworthiness whilst those for long-term attractivness is neutral (which makes it uncertain). I do believe the women of this experiment may have rated the men negatively and whilst the men rated the women positively, which may have neutralized the score.
I guess this supports my claim since "“women [of course] did not show any preference for similarity; they preferred the most attractive male and female faces,” ~ source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21267643
