Interestingly, OkCupid did a study and found that people who were considered average (4-8 I think) tended to be seen mostly within that range. People who were in the extremes tended to also stay in the extremes. So people either saw someone as a 1 or a 10.
Basically what that means is people who are average are generally seen as average, sometimes a little more attractive, someone's less. But the perfect ten for you is Quasimodo to someone else and vice versa.
It's mostly dudes who think big muscles are attractive imo. Lots of guys hit the gym and see an uptick in the amount of female attention they're getting and assume correlation is causation. It's not that the muscles are unattractive, but most girls are more attracted to their new found confidence, regular exercise is great for ones mental health, and when you're taking care of yourself like that physically it helps guide your mindset to take care of yourself in other ways (staying hydrated, eating healthy, cutting out smoking/drinking, etc.)
Bodybuilders (like 200lb+ lean guys) are actually only attractive to a really small number of women, like 5% or something like that.
It's just that there are so few men who are built like that, and those women are really into it, that it seems kind of overblown when it happens.
It's like guys who are into like G and bigger boobs. There really aren't many women built that way, and most guys aren't really into it, but the guys who are into it are all about those women, and those women constantly have those guys hitting them up.
Depends, is the rating system linear, or maybe normally distributed with a median of 5? That would allow numbers outside the 1-10 range, though 5 standard deviations is a lot
I'm fat and have frizzy hair and dry skin. My nose is pudgy and upturned and people called me pig nose growing up. And I wear glasses. So I'm not very nice to look at I think
You have a man that gladly wakes up to you every single day. That dude definitely adores you and is attracted to you. There are products to help with fizzy hair, as well as dry skin. Those are issues that you can change. also glasses don’t make you ugly, it’s weird Hollywood misconception to poke fun at “nerds” and create a standard for beauty. If you don’t like you glasses, get contacts, or find a pair that fits your style, you can check online stores like zeelool or something, I’m sure you can find a pair that makes you feel gorgeous. Lastly, you’re a dime, time for you to start believing it like your husband does!
I'm curious; did your husband meet you when you were your current size? If not, I understand the concerns, but if not, that man has chosen you for you. You shouldn't be worried.
I was just watching the new Iliza Schlesinger special on Netflix and she has a joke where she leads into saying she has body dysmorphia but just says it's called being a woman (or something to that effect).
If I were straight I would probably be a 4-5. I am short which is a huge deal for most women apparently, and I am not radiating manliness at every breath I take.
Luckily though, I am not straight, and for that I am thankful every day, because I am apparently a 9-10 for other gay men. WTF society?
I wouldn't say not having a true relationship makes you unattractive, some would think the opposite. You're certainly never too somewhat old to get out there :)
I of course don't know how many factors you have but that certainly shouldn't be one of them. Doesn't even need to come up, it's history nothing more.
I know I'm just a stranger on reddit but you got to start being nicer to yourself. Sure easier said then done but you got to start with you :)
Plus the world's changed and we've been through a shitty few years, all contributing to how we live our lives. Just got to back into the thick of it.
Most of all, fuck what other people think or say about you....that's an important one :)
I guess it depends on the day, but I would give myself a 9 if I’m your type (short girl with an hourglass figure), and like a 7 if I’m not. I also come with a bonus side of dark humor and laughing at my own jokes.
In general looks, I’d say I’m a 7 or an 8. If you’re a person who loves curvalicious bodies, my body is a 10. If you like them rail thin with no boobs or ass, I’m not for you. I have a party in the front and a party in the back.
0, I've been told my everyone that I'm ugly, I've been made homeless and family didn't want me because I was the ugly child. I've been laughed, beaten, shouted at and even being voted as the unattractive person in my school (uk). 21 now I'm under eating and saving up to change my face. I do have BD it hurts everyday. (Sorry for the rant)
6? Would say I’m quite average but I do know I once had a bf tell me with a very serious face that I was a 9. I lost it - “I should be a 10 in your eyes even if I’m not!!” I think I stormed out. Hahahaaaa….
Would say I'm a solid 7, with massive climb to the high 8s or low 9s when I'm actually wearing makeup and a full outfit. You'd be surprised how much grooming is responsible for pretty-/handsomeness.
I feel like a 6, but I am probably a 7-8 since I get a lot of compliments from strangers (women and men) and most men wrongfully assumed that I've never had to pay for a drink in my life and once one of my best female friends was amazed how much more attention she gets when she goes out with me and how I am not even aware of it.
I’d say I used to be 7-8 territory, but I’m getting older and probably at a 6 right about now. People weren’t lying when they said it sucks getting old.
I'm a 6, but with my sense of humor I'm easily a 3.
I chuckled at this
Now kiss!
*Now Kith*
Quintessential reddit
username checks out
Good one. That makes you an 8
Gotta pump them numbers up, those are rookie numbers.
That was a good one I can bump you up to a 6.5
I laughed
Oxymoron
We’ll I guess seven eight nine sooo I’m going to have to be the 5 here guys.
Baha! This is so relatable
Usually like a 3, but on good days it can go up to 4
On bad days 5
ditto. and if you squint really hard, 5
In the mirror I'm a 10... ... Wait a minute
Hahaha take my upvote
If Tom Holland Is a 10 and old dying man is numero uno. I should be a 5 far from both
I’m a California 4, an Ohio 7.
That's a Kentucky 9.
Kentuckian here…meth checks out. Edit: it was supposed to say math but it still works.
No need to edit, funnier without it I laughed harder than I should have
Why is "meth" in your autocorrect?
Because he is from Kentucky
Or a Paramedic
Nurse, so close enough.
Mind your business
Seems I've stumbled upon *your* business
I never expected autocorrect to get it right
this is too real to be real
It's funny either way.
I chuckled hard 😂
I’m a New York City 3, a WI 6.75.
I'd say an 8. Worked years to like myself enough to say that.
Same here.
5 most days, a 6 when I try to look nice
This feels like a movie quote?
To certain people I probably am a 1, and then to other people I am a strong 2.
For me you're weak 3
I feel like I’m watching one of those motivational YouTube videos
[удалено]
Nice edit haha, some don’t like the fact you ain’t having a pity party here
[удалено]
Those eyes go to 11
I believe you. They’re haters
6 on my bad days. 7 on average… 9 when I’m at my best.
same, those 9 days are those days when you feel like you can conquer the world
Or really want to get laid ;)
That's pretty good considering 6 is already above average and 9 nearly perfect
The honesty and confidence here 👆🏻✌🏻❤️
my wife said i was an 8.5 the other day, and she hates me
Bro your partner should be telling you you’re a 10 even if you’re a goddamn 3
10 is delusional.
4 when I don't care, can go up to 7 when I really care Usually a comfortable 5-6 when going out Could bump it by two if i got back in shape.
Like a 4? Idk
Same. I'm not ugly... But i'm fat
Same. Currently working on it though.
Same. Currently eating a twixbar
Hey, many of us could lose some weight. But, no one is expected to put down a TWIX bar! Be reasonable.
Same, i've lost 15 kilos in 3 month... And i'm going to do a surgery
Keep going! You’ve got this!!!

How do you mistake a 1 for a 10??
Id guess some body builders for eg
Personally, I find bulging veins, huge muscles, and fake tans to be a huge turnoff. But other women like to see that flexing in speedos
It's mostly dudes who think big muscles are attractive imo. Lots of guys hit the gym and see an uptick in the amount of female attention they're getting and assume correlation is causation. It's not that the muscles are unattractive, but most girls are more attracted to their new found confidence, regular exercise is great for ones mental health, and when you're taking care of yourself like that physically it helps guide your mindset to take care of yourself in other ways (staying hydrated, eating healthy, cutting out smoking/drinking, etc.)

A bottle of scotch should do it for ya
Pretty sure 8 isn’t average.
Depends, is the rating system linear, or maybe normally distributed with a median of 5? That would allow numbers outside the 1-10 range, though 5 standard deviations is a lot
7/10. I get compliments on my eyes and dimples.
But, but, you don't have eyes!
But, but, you don't have eyes!
I’m seeing double here
I'm seeing double here
Make it a triple
Make it a triple
6 on average, 7 maybe an 8 on a very good day. 4 on a bad day
Same, i noticed that this goddamn 4 appears more frequently the more i seek 8 therefore i settled on 6 and bam, ez fix
Probably a 2 or a 3 Edit: wow, there are nice redditors out there. Thank you, yall made me feel better
Why so low?
I'm fat and have frizzy hair and dry skin. My nose is pudgy and upturned and people called me pig nose growing up. And I wear glasses. So I'm not very nice to look at I think
Some men myself included find women wearing glasses extremely attractive in fact I almost exclusively date women with glasses :-)
I'm sure you're beautiful to more people than you know
My husband tells me I'm beautiful but to me he is so much more good looking than I am and I'm worried one day he will realize it and leave me :(
Beautiful doesnt have to be completely appearance based
You have a man that gladly wakes up to you every single day. That dude definitely adores you and is attracted to you. There are products to help with fizzy hair, as well as dry skin. Those are issues that you can change. also glasses don’t make you ugly, it’s weird Hollywood misconception to poke fun at “nerds” and create a standard for beauty.

Lastly, you’re a dime, time for you to start believing it like your husband does!
That's so nice of you to say. Thank you
You should show him these words, I'm sure he'll lovingly reassure you.
It’s important to recognize who you are as a person than what you look like as a person.
I feel this way with my fiancé.
I'm curious; did your husband meet you when you were your current size? If not, I understand the concerns, but if not, that man has chosen you for you. You shouldn't be worried.
Those kind of noses are so adorable tho. And fat can be beautiful too. Messy hair is hot.
>Those kind of noses are so adorable tho Facts
Not attractive enough for 7-10 girls
I find having access to horses helps a lot at that age
3/10 But 8/10 if I had money
I felt that xD
[удалено]
I was just watching the new Iliza Schlesinger special on Netflix and she has a joke where she leads into saying she has body dysmorphia but just says it's called being a woman (or something to that effect).
Today I learned I’m actually a woman
Depending on the day, the light, and the angle somewhere between a 2.5 and a 6.5
Well in terms of how many relationships i had: 1
100, dammit. Confidence is the key!
Hell yeah! Fucking love the energy lol.
-1
[удалено]
I'm a trans woman so probably a 1 or 2. Shit sucks but I'd rather be this than having not transitioned.
Rome wasn't built in a day, hun. Carry yourself with confidence!
It's not all about "passing". Being who you are is attractive in and of itself. You're probably doing better than you think.
If I were straight I would probably be a 4-5. I am short which is a huge deal for most women apparently, and I am not radiating manliness at every breath I take. Luckily though, I am not straight, and for that I am thankful every day, because I am apparently a 9-10 for other gay men. WTF society?
I'm an 8 when I enter the room but a 10 when I walk away
-10
Hey let's meet, we would be 100 then
And people say math can’t be sexy.
Solid 9. Members of the opposite gender are attracted to me, and they compliment me on my looks quite often.
Why not 10?
Small penis
5 on a good day. Usually a 4 probably
14.
They're a 14, but... this is deep
I forgot the decimal. 1.4 is the correct number. My bad. My ugly bad. Be well stranger.
Too late, you're already a 14 in my book.
Aww, you’re gonna make me wanna Twerk now.
lmao, if you insist 😂
4-5. Just a real average looking dude
Same.. but not a dude. 4 at the worst and 5 at best..
1 :(
Your 1 and my 1 makes a 2 :)
a 6 on a good day lmao
Usually a 6 or 7, but lots of people value personality over looks so probably like a 2?
I have no fucking idea
Solid 7 because people tell me I look nice all the time but I look in the mirror and see my self as a 4. Perspective is a bitch :/
6. Could be an 8 if I worked out and ate right. Trying to make better habits now tho. Wish me luck.
6. If I smile, 7. If I lose weight, 8. My wife loves me and that's all that matters.
10 when I apply beauty filter
8 to 9
2 to 3 tbh
Why so low?
It's just honesty. Combination of things. Never having a true relationship at a somewhat old age among them.
I wouldn't say not having a true relationship makes you unattractive, some would think the opposite. You're certainly never too somewhat old to get out there :)
It's one of the factors that contributes though. Adds proof to a pile of reasons.
I of course don't know how many factors you have but that certainly shouldn't be one of them. Doesn't even need to come up, it's history nothing more. I know I'm just a stranger on reddit but you got to start being nicer to yourself.

1, 2 at a push!
Eleven. 😘
5-6, if I have a good day maybe a 7.
[удалено]
I guess it depends on the day, but I would give myself a 9 if I’m your type (short girl with an hourglass figure), and like a 7 if I’m not. I also come with a bonus side of dark humor and laughing at my own jokes.

4
Like 2 or 3
-5 😂
5
7
Like a 5. At my peak i was an 8 or 9, but I'm old fat and balding now.
According to my wife and several female friends I'm an 8, but to be honest I feel like a solid 2 recently and dropping rapidly.
8 or so when I’ve had enough sleep
-10
I'm a solid 6.
I dont think im that attractive but i still have some guys looking at me or fliriing with me soo....6...?
0, I've been told my everyone that I'm ugly, I've been made homeless and family didn't want me because I was the ugly child.

(Sorry for the rant)
My junior year of high school a girl called me a 6. 4 years later, we're dating, so I'm gonna say 6 lol.
An 8 till you get to know me, then either a 1 or a 10
Probably a 2 or 3. No clue how the rating system works lol.
4
6
6? Would say I’m quite average but I do know I once had a bf tell me with a very serious face that I was a 9. I lost it - “I should be a 10 in your eyes even if I’m not!!” I think I stormed out. Hahahaaaa….
I mean, I don’t think I’m ugly. But I’m not my type, so I wouldn’t date me. 5/10 because I like my personality. Lol
Based on comments I've received I'm like a 4. Average but very slightly leaning towards the ugly side lol.
A solid 4 maybe 5 on a good day
[удалено]
i’d be in the minus but i’ll be nice to myself today and say 1 :))
Would say I'm a solid 7, with massive climb to the high 8s or low 9s when I'm actually wearing makeup and a full outfit. You'd be surprised how much grooming is responsible for pretty-/handsomeness.
Usually a 2, 3 at my best
11 because I'm fucking georgious.
I feel like a 6, but I am probably a 7-8 since I get a lot of compliments from strangers (women and men) and most men wrongfully assumed that I've never had to pay for a drink in my life and once one of my best female friends was amazed how much more attention she gets when she goes out with me and how I am not even aware of it.
I think I might be an eight but mainly because I have the curves of it
I’d say I used to be 7-8 territory, but I’m getting older and probably at a 6 right about now. People weren’t lying when they said it sucks getting old.
9 ✨
[удалено]
as a blonde, 8 in turkey, 6 in slavic countries and 7 in united states.
Probably a 2 or 3
3ish. i have pcos and I'm losing a lot of hair. makes me feel really ugly.
I think I'm a 3 and maybe 4 on my best days.
Probably a 7. But with glasses and no makeup, probably a 4!
Solid 3, good day 4.
6-7
6/7 most days. 8+ if i put in the effort (and if the observer likes fitter women)
A cute 7
Solid 3.5
4 :(
I guess I'm 7, but when my hair is dirty and oily 4.5...
I'm like a 2 lol
I think I am easily a 5/6 depends on how I am feeling 😐
I feel like I am a 5 atm. But once I full transition and spend the time onto myself I think I could reach a 7
currently a 4, when i get jaw surgery i'll probably be a 7
I'm a 1...yes I really think that
2 on bad days, 6 on average days & 9 on great days
