I think it can be. If the basic program of the selfish gene is "try to implant me in 100 wombs" once he realizes it is not really likely, there can be a plan B "have a son who will be so high quality and status that he will implant me in 100 wombs".
But couldn't high quality and status be highly correlated with attractiveness so that this this trait prevents other traits from being selected for?
