If the man always usually tried to pick the most attractive sexual

But 'ugly' and 'beautiful' are kinda subjective. Some things that were considered beautiful back then, are considered ugly now etc.

>Does it mean that the older the times were, the uglier people looked in overall?

Perhaps in pre civilization times, arragned marriages being the norm killed this aspect of evolution pretty hard.

They're really not. Facial composites tend to an attractive mean for a reason. Objective ideal beauty is a real thing that pemeatrs the universe which humans strive to seek.

That's assuming several things:

1) that the same genes that make men attractive are the same that make women look better.

2) genes for attractiveness don't interfere at all with other factors (disease, ability to procure food, etc.)

3) attractive and ugly people reproduced at the same rate, ceteris paribus

4) genes interact with each other in relatively simple, easily predictable patterns

As I'm not sure any 4 of those are true, my guess is "highly doubtful".

Such as fatter people=rich
Pasty pale skin=attractive

Maybe rulers and various other well traveled people.

If you were a peasant you were rather limited in your partners since you never traveled more than 5 miles from your hut for your entire life.

Or black teeth for the japs and central asians love of unibrows.

>>3078045
Only the Uzbek, Welsh, Irish, Finnish and French are attractive in that pic tho tbqh

Fucking this so much. I still don't get it? They thought it preserved teeth but the mixture was of vinegar which is an acid.
As for the central Asian thing. Did they just like it painted on or did they really hold people born with unibrows to high regard?
