Theory about the evolutionary development of narcissism

100% of all women are narcissists, and maybe about half or less of men are.

What we see as an increasing trend are sexy thin narcissistic women in the media making all sorts of money and garnering social status while having essentially no skill or traits to offer society.

The same goes for some men but to a lesser extent, for reasons to be explained later.

So I was wondering today how this came to be from an evolutionary viewpoint, and it seems rather simple.

Narcissism must be a survival trait. With nothing to offer except sexy and thin looks, these women must instinctively realize that narcissism is their only true means to thrive. With no skills, no empathic social offerings, and being the physically weaker sex, it seems that nature has provided narcissistic traits to compete for mates and resources.

Men being the physically stronger sex would not need to rely on these traits as much so this would naturally reflect in a lower percentage of the general male population.

To some extent then, all women must obligatorily
possess narcissist traits in their survival toolbox.

The recent trend has been to condemn these types, to out them, run away, fear them. But perhaps this sheds some light on the matter and makes them less dangerous?

Maybe then even ugly fat women can take pride in their social, nurturing, and empathic resources and not even lower themselves to contempt and jealousy of their narcisstic counterparts.

What do you think?
