True, not as though OKC had women evaluate a pic of every man on planet earth. Just a random sampling of photos.

Not really science. Just some poll.

Or else maybe 80% of men should brush their teeth and comb their hair or something, I dunno.

Oh, so hey...men...what makes a woman approachable to you?

"She isn't busy filling out some stupid poll on a dating site."

Great!

Ok, but men in the same study found 50% of women below and 50% of women to be above average looking. As you would expect, considering that men and owmen on dating sites such as OKC are usually an accurate representative sample of larger population. Do you then propose, that only butt ugly males sign up for OKC, but the women that do are an ideal sample? Or did you simply run out of ideas on how to defend the illogical?

Great!
Or MAYBE, certain people need to get a clue as to what AVERAGE actually means? Id suggest thats the route to take, if you are interested in actual reality.

I don't presume to lump all men into the same hive mind. You could consider that in your anger towards women. Or not. *shrug*

I do want the best of the best, though...the best of the best match for ME. What do you think that looks like?
I have no idea what oyu look like, so I cant really answer that question. However, I can tell you that saying that 80% of men are below average looking is pure insanity. Have you an y idea how divorced from reality that is? I dont have any anger towards women., My anger is towards feminism and blue pill society, that has zero issues pushing misandry while attacking men for being men. Its destructive and awful. Look at some of the threads on this very forum and give it an honest consideration.

Maybe because you are not a woman.

You keep saying that, John, but it's not true.

Average is not the same as median.

Again, what's the average of this set of numbers?

0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,5

How many of the numbers are below the average.

Usually guys will approach women who make themselves easy to approach. For example, a simple smile is often inviting. Body language also plays a huge role here. If a woman is standing with her arms crossed and turns her body away from you, chances are she is not receptive to your approach. But if her body is facing you, or she points her toes and feet inward to accentuate her hips or plays with her her (obvious) or holds longer than usual eye contact, she is likely open to your approach. Eye contact is a play in dominance and it is an extremely powerful tool if you can use it right. It is unfortunate that many people today, believe that approaching a woman you find attractive, is sexual harassment. Because of this, you will continue seeing less and less men taking that chance. Its sad
Pointing toes inward accentuates your hips? Really?

yes, there is a difference between median and average. Doesnt change the fact that roughly 50% of male population is below average looking and roughly 50% of male population is above average looking. Does statement "80% of men are below average looking" make any sense at all to you? Because it shouldnt

Am I the only one envisioning the scene from Rocky Horror where they're doing the "Time Warp" right now?

Just checking.

How have you come to that conclusion?
