It’s very complicated (really!) and you’re not going to get good answers here because there are few LessWrong users for whom this is a pressing concern. Finding which women and scenarios men find most sexually attractive or arousing is easy. Getting a good model of why men-who-have-lots-of-options choose to date or marry particular women is difficult. I don’t think I’ve seen any convincing unifying explanation for all of the interesting features (e.g. men’s tendency to do assortative mating by class & intellectual ability, even if they’re exposed to attractive women outside their class regularly).

You mean that most of the readership is male? This is true, but I expect male readers to at least know something about why they prefer certain women to other women.

Hmm, is it? I think I know what makes a woman’s appearance more attractive to men, but is that all there is to it? (Maybe it is, I dunno.)
