Hypergamy in dating relationships has historically been the courting pattern for centuries. Beautiful women were married off to high value men "of means" who owned land, cattle, property, had royal titles, etc. The women were pushed by relatives and society to marry men who were "better off" than their families, both socially or economically. By leveling up or marrying up to a high value man, beautiful young women improved future prospects of their children as well as their siblings and parents. Women seeking hypergamous relationships was and remains a socially acceptable practice, where a woman's beauty and youth is traded for financial wealth and social status.
