ok so the vibe I get from the community is that women are the selectors. Women are the choosers. Because women are the choosers they can raise their standards etc etc. If you are persuing a women, you have to do X Y Z to have a leg up on the average guy.
Women are selectors because society allows them to be.

Well then how does marriage happen?
Usually after you been in a relationship with someone for a long time the man goes out and buys a ring and proposes to the girl, which then the girl usually says yes. The couple then sets a date to get married and then on that day they get married.

I get this impression that there is a HUGE DISPARITY among the percentage of females getting a partner and the percentage of males getting a partner. (females being much higher).
That is because women in tend to want to get married a lot more than guys do. In a lot of cases the guy actually looses out by getting married and more and more guys are realizing this so less and less guys want to get married.

If the typical AFC man is a "spineless wuss" (kind of exaggeration), that is going to have little chance, how does marriage happen?
Do you have to dissociate the idea of Long term relationships and marriage from traditional PUA thoughts. does it even apply there?
There are various reasons how marriage happens in this case. From the AFC being successful, to the AFC just being a guy the girl just loves and wants to be with. Remember a lot of pua is focused on getting a girl not keeping her around. So we are really on our own when it comes to long term relationships and marriage for that matter.

I see attractive, successful, social confident women engaged to average looking guys that are succesful, but no near what I would called "PUA masters". Shouldnt the women desire to be with the top 1% of the rung? does this mean that 90% of women "settle" with a guy?
First off you don't need to be any where close to be a PUA master to get girls. Secondly girls don't put as much value on looks as us guys do. Does this mean looks don't matter? No as they do but its not a main thing by any means. Third. not every single woman has the desire nor wants to be with the top 1%. Does this mean women settle? Yes, but not all of them do. As some actually find a guy they actually want to be with. Also what women consider to be the top 1% differs from woman to woman. Not all women want a guy loaded with money and power. A lot of women tend to want a guy that is similar to their dad.
