In my experience, it's not a myth

I help people learn to date. I notice most men don’t mind dating “up” as long as the woman is attractive (supporting what
@HPluckrose said). Women struggle more with dating “down” but I notice more and more women are doing it (and are pretty content with the decision). -
I'm 44, never married, never engaged, and not for lack of trying. In a two year span during last year of law school and first year post-graduation, went on around 200 "first dates." So I'm apparently physically attractive enough to draw interest. Maybe I need training then

And to clarify, there were also dozens of 2nd, 3rd, 4th dates, and one six-month and a second nine-month relationship that ultimately didn't pan out in there. The current lack of social consensus regarding dating/mating norms is problematic & frustrating for some of us women, too
