Partially, but the fact that the men I know are more likely to want deeper relationships too suggests that it's not entirely due to that. Aging changes preferences: most people also have fewer, closer friends as they age too.

I didn't mention anything about jerks.

> female attraction is really complicated
They indeed look for more aspects than men. But I think it can best be summed up as:
1. successful man 2. man sweet enough to take care of the family 3. man hard enough to protect the family from the outside world
I think there is still confusion about these points: successful does not equal rich. A born-rich loser will have a harder time than a hard working entrepreneur that might hit jackpot some day.
And they are not looking for jerks. They are looking for jerks to the outside world, and sweet to them. Basically a man who can and will protect them and their family.
But of course, I think we can all agree that women are more complex than this ;).
