One advantage of being very handsome over being very beautiful: the longevity of looks

‌One advantage of being very handsome over being very beautiful is the longevity of looks.
For a very beautiful woman, her value comes from the combination of beauty and youth.
However, for a very handsome man, in addition to handsomeness and youth, there is also maturity and dignity,
providing an alternative when youth fades. Furthermore,
once a man passes 50, his "handsomeness" carries more weight than "beauty." Of course,
if he is well-groomed and has wealth, he can still
appeal to women in their 30s. On the other hand, a very beautiful woman in her 50s
is often seen as just a casual partner by men in their 30s.
