    They are as silly as women who could buy the exact same mascara from Maybelline but prefer to purchase for Chanel instead because the store in more prestigious and the packaging more elegant.

    And women who demand that the man not be a foot shorter than them, or for that matter demand that he bathe regularly, are equivalently obsessed with the "packaging" and not the truuuue soul, etc. It is understood of course that the preferences motivated by instinct of women are inherently benign and the preferences motivated by instinct of men are inherently sinister and exploitive but lets at least be honest about what we think, OK?
