All guys want one thing: food
All guys want one thing: air
etc.
Or would you suggest that guys only want food and air so we can stay
alive for more sex? I think the belief that all human (or animal, for
that matter) inclinations can be traced back to some perfect and logical
instinct is a load of crap.

bs. Why is it that I prefer skinny women? They certainly won't make
stronger babies. My guess is that my preference is a reaction to my
environment.

"Nice guys" really do finish last, but it's not because they are weak or
poor. I was born with a nack for attracting "good will." People around
me just insisted on doing things for me ...
UNTIL I decided that I wanted these things. Then I'd throw a wrench into
the works by acting under some of the same assumptions you've expressed
here. I never really did figure it out on my own; Someone, several
someones, had to show me what I was doing wrong.
You may be right about the timid, but look for the weak and poor guy
with the "hot chick" next time you go out -- you'll see him.
