Obviously Doll Eyes, us average women are over-estimating our attractiveness. We are really 1-2s, and that's why we aren't getting overwhelming amounts of male attention.

These guys are just doing their usual clueless assuming.

But they didnt disprove anything I said though lol, what part of that don't you understand. Hell I never even argued against what that study showed.. But whatever

And of course it's just my opinion, everything anyone posts on the relationship board is their opinion. I'm only "wrong" if I state a personal experience as a fact for everyone's life which I don't do.(Well at least try hard not to)

Who is a 3 in your eyes may be a 6 in someone elses. Attractivness is highly subjective, so you cant pigeon hole people into neat little groups of attractivness, because you lack mental capacity to see the world in all of its complexity. Rating people based on attractivness, or believing in nonsensical notions like leagues has nothing to do with gender, but with level of maturity, or more precisely lack of maturity. As a man, I will approach any woman whom i find attractive, and I couldnt care less if she is a noble prize winner or a supermodel. For a man who wants success with the opposite sex, this is by far the most attractive stance to take and it leads to biggest rewards. Couldnt care less if your juvenile high school underdeveloped brain tells you its wrong.

Don't get me started here. I can site examples of this. (There are women I find attractive that my friends think, meh and vice versa.)

All I can say is in my 20's I was well above average look wise I got asked out by a lot of men. However most of the men were weird and creepy. So many (probably most)made it known they were only interested in me because of my looks. Very few of these guys wanted a relationship. The ones who did want a relationship were not guys I wanted to date (obese, poor hygiene, dads, etc). Now in my 40's it is considerably worse because yes I still attract men but it feels like scraping the bottom of the barrel. I would have dated average decent men but rarely were these the guys who approached me.

Exactly. I had surgery a couple of weeks ago and two of my friends went and waited with me. I thought the anesthesiologist was very attractive. My two friends thought he was good looking but not nearly as much as I did. No one would ever get anywhere if we all had the same idea of what's attractive.

I don't just post my opinion. I post collected data which is meant to reflect reality, not my opinion. You can announce that we all have ass holes all day, but I fail to see the merit of it.

Yep. I was out for drinks with a friend the other night, and she leans over and whispers, "there are some really cute guys at the bar!" I looked, and I saw a couple of dudes at the bar, but they weren't what I would describe as "really cute." Different strokes and such.

I thought my ex-fiance was gorgeous. Sometimes women would fall all over themselves in front of him. Some of my friends thought he was incredibly good looking - and a couple of them thought he was ugly. There was no middle ground.
