8.2 on Hot or Not

Yeah, according to Hot or Not, I'm a 9.2. Looking at my scores, they average out around a 6 (which is about right I feel). Their scoring is slightly off.

Their scores are weighted, e.g. if some douchebag rates me a 1 out of spite, it's not factored into the average if he does this to every guy he clicks on.

And I gave myself a 7, if I didn't work out, it would be more like 4-5.

To me, once they reach a certain level of attractiveness, it really doesn't matter how much more attractive they get -- it's like they've passed the looks audition, and the rest is nitpicking.

This is why I only rate women using the binary scale.

So the average here is a "7"? Everyone here must play at the Lake Wobegon Poker Palace.

The scale based on a what a really hot girl thinks when she see's you across the club or street etc should be something like this.

10-OMG...He's so beautiful, he's got to be gay, or married, or a supermodel....Oh God he's looking at me....he must think I'm so ugly...I knew I shouldn't have eaten that bagel. I'd pay to [censored] him...even if I was dating Brad Pitt.

9--Wow...he's got to be a fashion model...so [censored] hot. I'd [censored] him in a second even if I was married.

8--Damn...he's hot...he could probably be a model, defnitly an actor. I'd ride him all night...what my boyfriend doesn't know won't hurt him.

7--Wow...he goodlooking...he should work out and he'd be really [censored] hot. I'd [censored] him if I was single.

6-Oh he's cute. I'd probably [censored] him after a couple of dates even if he doesnt have much going on upstairs.

5-Oh he's kinda cute...if he'd clean himself up and get in shape he'd be pretty darn cute. I defnitly go on a date with him.

4-Ehh he's ok. I guess I'd go out with him...he probably has a really good personality.

3-He really needs to get a gym membership...but his face is ok...hello, ever heard of shaving? I should set him up with Rhonda...she needs to get laid...its been ages.

2-Ehh kinda ugly...but he looks like those 80's porn actors. I don't think a gym membership is gonna do much for him.

1-Oh my god...hello..its called rogaine. I bet when the casting people on a TV show say we need a ugly dude...he's gets the part everytime.

blarg, why is a 7 average on your 1-10 scale instead of a 5? Why have way more lattitute in ranking ugly people than attractive people?

[/ QUOTE ]

Ugliness or even averageness covers a huge range in comparison to being attractive. Attractiveness starts out as a narrow category and just gets narrower really rapidly, so you only need a few numbers to rate it. Whereas being average -- or worse -- covers almost everybody, especially people who are at least past their early to mid 20's. You need plenty of numbers for that. There's a real depth and variety to ugliness that beauty doesn't have to bother with.

[/ QUOTE ]

Every post you make is dead on accurate. I have tried to explain this to people several times but it never works. They always think 10% of the people should be 7's, 10% should be 6's, etc.

It doesnt work like that... Great post!
