@GeistInTheMachine I suspect a big part of that is being a member of the dominant racial group (if the avi is a clue). In Western society, anyway, white women are among its most valued..

@bijouxbroussard Yeah, that's usually one aspect of it, especially in the US.
I wrote this pertaining to that on another post here:
It is also a question of era and social class and looks.
Women in the past were denied much, but in the more modern and civilized parts of the world, women have a ton of financial as well as social, and societal capital.
For example, in the US, on average, women of the dominant racial group get lighter sentencing that their peers for the exact same crimes. This is especially true if they are female, conventionally attractive, and young enough.
Women who fall within that specific social/racial hierarchy are shown more attention when they are in danger or missing, too.
Finally in the US and other similar parts of the Westen world, women control huge amounts of spending power.
