*Warning: THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*
Hypergamy is the practice of marrying or dating someone of a higher social status or wealth. It can also refer to marrying someone who is perceived as more successful or secure.
Entering dating has propaganda built into the concept before men and women meet each other. Femininity is a constant that men are attracted to where a tier system may exist, but masculinity has always been a tier system. What masculinity meant in the Roman Empire isn't the same in the Zulu tribe in South Africa nor is the same in feudal Japan.
The cowboy was for a long time called the height of being masculine, but then in the same area were business minded men who had money and it put the dirty cowboy with a blue collar job in a second tier. The third tier might've been the man that a business man would order around. The equalizer to all of them would be having a woman to protect from the evils of the world all tiered men could do to her.
If a man is a bodybuilder and a teenager, his tier would change if a third person would see him next to a police officer. One has untrained muscle and could use them and the other has trained experience and could use it.
Whether the tier system is right or wrong, both men and women use a bias.
