Hypergamy
Hypergamy is an observed phenomenon in which women seek to pair bond with men of higher social and economic status. This is sometimes colloquially referred to as marrying up.[1]
Studies of mate selection in dozens of countries around the world have found men and women report prioritising different traits when it comes to choosing a mate, with both groups favouring attractive partners in general, but men tending to prefer women who are young while women tend to prefer men who are rich, well-educated, and ambitious.[2]
NY Post admit hypergamy is real:
"Evolutionary psychologists say that women tend to be more attracted to men who are more highly educated and/or out-earn them because sex can bring great costs for women – namely pregnancy and childbirth."[3]
