Talking about women in numbers is what guys from the pick-up community do. And those definitely have serious problems! Do they actually care about the woman as a human being, her personality? Seems it's only about the looks. This somehow reflects their distorted view of women, which seems to be the root of their own problems.

As I responded to you in another post, how is any of this helping you get a date? Your peers are dating, and you're searching youtube videos to try and make some ridiculous point that doesn't matter and no one cares about but you. Get off the internet and go outside for heaven's sake!

I wouldn't say more difficult but I've seen entitlement and egos on plain women as much as pretty women

I don't see how people here DONT have a rating system.


By definition if you have PREFERENCES, then by definition you have a rating scale.


Take 3 guys, you probably prefer guy A over B, and B over C.

There, by definition that is your rating system already.

A is probably a 7

Since you prefer A over B, then B must be lower than A, so probably a 5-6?

Since you prefer B over C, then C must be lower than B, so probably a 3-4?


I think many people are just unwilling to admit it.

Sounds like something a 4 would say...

Nope.

Preferences encompass a multitude of qualities, many of which in combination can be attractive depending on who's looking, but calling someone a 7 reduces a person to 1 subjective number. It's juvenile.

Exactly. Talking in terms of a 0-10 scale is meant to be shorthand, to spare words. Just because women typically do not use the terminology does not mean that they don't quantify male physical attractiveness. Women talking amongst themselves pick apart a guy's height, facial structure, skin, etc., just like we pick apart a woman's boobs, face, etc.

LOL @ selective reading.

It's not "exactly". Nice of you to rejoin your thread when someone finally agrees with you.

Someone either interests you, or they don't. It has nothing to do with numbers on a scale, because how you perceive someone is not going to be the same as how the next person perceives them, so it's irrelevant.

None of this matters, regardless of what you tell yourself.
