To answer to the original post, and hopefully get back on topic.
Survival of the fittest doesn’t really apply to our species anymore.
While it may still seem that the physical condition is still important for finding a mate, its actually just a relic of the past. We are on the brink of taking our physical evolution into our own hands though genetics and robotics. Once that is achieved only the quality of the mind will remain as an important criteria for evolution. Since our brain has evolved at such an amazing rate that we have not unlocked its full potential, it is at the moment impossible to know who has the best minds, and therefore the best genes. By the time we uncover the mysteries within our skulls, genetics probably wont matter at all.
