I always noticed that when I’d go to the Skywalk or mall in Des Moines in my somewhat expensive suits vs. short sleeve shirt w/tie and slacks the ladies seemed to look at me differently, even though I’m fat & ugly.
For me it was blue jeans, so we offered two different types of everything, we were quite a team.
I remember watching a Youtube video discussing male and female standards, and dos and do nots. On the male side, it was things like: “is she hot?” and “don’t date redheads. Don’t date girls named Tiffany.” etc.
On the female side, for marriage, it was more along the lines of “Is he rich?” lol
