girls probably make the healthiest babies in their late teens and twenties, evolutionary there is some pressure that they find favourable partners in their late teens.
at the same time, it is arguably quite hard to know what you want in life when you're still a teenager.
the way I see it, you can tell if someone's personality and genetic makeup is a good match when you are in your late teens, but still there is a lot of other things going on in our complex world, like for example the career, that isn't fully developed until one is in one's twenties or thirties.
thus, someone like a parental figure could probably help with their experience, for example explaining to the young man or woman what the financial implications are of dating a potential match.
but then again, I do believe that there is a risk that parents give shitty advice to their kids, especially when they are overly religious or try to marry their children off for short term financial gain.
So, as we are in a complex world, do you think it is even possible for girls to learn the skill of evaluating a potential mate from an early age?
Like for example take Taylor Swift. She keeps singing about how there was something unique about her when she was seventeen
"I know someday I'm gonna meet her it's a fever dream,
the kind of radiance you only have at seventeen"
to the point of where even normies understand that someone might feel like missing out on something if they start dating a girl when she is in her 30s.
but COULD you imagine a 17 year old taylor swift evaluating the quality of a potential mate that works in NVIDIA or is a soundcloud musician or a local thug? are they intelligent enough to evaluate the position of said men in society to make an informed decision? isn't it kinda weird how they physically peak at 18 but mentally they might not appreciate a person's societal impact until they are like 25?
