To this point I've assumed that when people refer to "top 20 percent" they're being facetious-- not referring to any real measure of quality, just referring to what women see as the top 20 percent. Which is basically just the dudes who are hot and charismatic and have money.

If people actually believe there's some kind of linear natural scale of men, with hot and smart at the top, and ugly and stupid at the bottom, then that's retarded. Genetics arent that clean-cut or easy to understand.
