OK Men Here's the Data. 80% of you are ugly, 10% average and 10% attractive

Fadroh · 2016-06-23T12:45:42+00:00

wow... pretty sure 10% average is an oxymoron

Griever114 · 2016-06-23T16:39:21+00:00

Honestly, I would LOVE to see a script flip with men making some of the asinie comment those hen's made.

Oh wait, I forgot, we must pick the obese, single mother, living off welfare with purple hair because otherwise we are body shaming, status shaming shitlords.

It would be taken down in MINUTES.

sillymod · 2016-06-23T14:05:28+00:00

Interesting... I do like reading these kinds of datasets.

I think this makes an interesting statement about the whole body shaming issue...

This is why it's a waste of time to put any attention on women, even if you date them them they see themselves as doing you a favor for the attention. What is the point? Just channel your energy on to yourself, improve yourself. Learn a new skill. Get in shape. Find a nice project. Adopt and care for a animal that needs a home. Grow a garden. There are tons of things you can be doing in your life to improve it and make it more rewarding than spending time and energy on someone who thinks you are beneath them.

And these studies also show that men generally find 50% of women average looking or above, tells you which gender is the picky one. Biologically it makes perfect sense: women want the best genes for their limited and historically dangerous breeding cycles, men just want a fertile vessel to dump his load in, men will take what they can get as many as they can get. Genetic analysis reveals women are twice as likely to breed as the average man, only about 20% of the male population do 80% of the breeding, while for women it is much more even.

mgtow_eagle · 2016-06-23T19:59:30+00:00

I don't think they know what "average" means.

BDMR_lurker · 2016-06-23T12:56:53+00:00

Then 80% of women will have to settle for unattractive men.

Or stay single.

Thankfully, it's not happening right now.

.

Not a men's right issue, but a significant social issue. A woman marrying 'down' will take it out on the poor sod.

scanspeak · 2016-06-23T17:57:49+00:00

If you took the makeup off every woman you would find 80% of them ugly.

brettdavis4 · 2016-06-23T20:23:47+00:00

I heard a stat the other day that there are slightly more single people than married people in the US. If women think that about men, that stat isn't going to change.

There are some women who still have the princess syndrome and surprisingly will still be single.

If it makes anyone feel better, these women will mostly end up bitter and angry because the relationships with elite men they felt they deserved never materialized. When these women are 40 and their SMV has bottomed out, all they will have to show for it is a variety of STDs. I'm still surprised by the inability to do grade school math.

Has anyone played musical chairs? If 50 people are playing for 10 chairs, that means most people end up empty handed.

The gender ratios in the real world are 1:1, and SMV follows a bell curve distribution. If 100 women want to chase the most elite 10 men, have at it. But of those 10 men, 5 will do nothing but play the field. Of the other 5, they may for LTRs but only with truly exceptional women (not the average woman).

68% of people are within 1 standard deviation of average. Only 2.5% of people are 2+ SD to the right. So if large numbers of women within 1 SD of average are all trying to get with men who are 2+ SD to the right, that means that the vast majority will not get anything other than a fling. They will not get the commitment or financial/emotional investment they were hoping for (unless they trick the man by doing something like accidentally getting pregnant, etc).

"it's a match, now he's going to message me and I dont want him to"

This statement sums up so much about women.

You're not factoring in the other issues. Tinder/PoF is a hook up/casual dating program. It doesn't account for women marrying for social reasons, money or people marrying due to having kids together.

Darth_Sin · 2016-06-26T06:37:14+00:00

& society is somehow baffled that MGTOW is taking off like crazy...

TheJester73 · 2016-06-23T20:44:23+00:00

But I have a high paying job, so based on the crazy hot matrix, I get a pass, right?

dissentforall · 2016-06-23T19:33:38+00:00

I'm not too surprised by this. Most women look for relationships and most don't feel comfortable doing so in these apps. So they'll only message the really hot dudes. I'm not surprised. And apps like these want people to only judge someone by looks so I don't think it's indicative of anything really

timmytissue · 2016-06-24T02:12:35+00:00

When it comes to tinder, does it really matter? You only see the people who swore right anyway, so you never waste your time. I am pretty surprised that 1 in 115 women swipe right on the average guy. I know lots o guys who use tinder and I used it myself and not all of us are super attractive. But we got 3 to 7 matches a day if you swipe right on most people.

DarkShadow667 · 2016-10-22T00:41:20+00:00

that is about the same for women. but maybe about 75% ugly, 20% average and 5% attractive

TomBayes · 2016-06-23T19:17:00+00:00

I saw this Discovery Channel Documentary on sex. In it they claimed some scientific studies found the men and women end up with people of similar attractiveness, on average. I think that's probably true. So when I see data like this from dating websites, it makes me think that what we're seeing is an artifact of the online dating environment. I imagine there is some element of competition that is either removed or hidden while using online dating sites that skews expectations.

civilsaint · 2016-06-23T12:38:16+00:00

This data is a bit misleading, because while women rate men as less attractive on average, they message men at a lower attractiveness level than men message women. Reading this data, I think the statistics show that women are just bad at rating average attractiveness, but that looks are less important to them than men. Men on the other hand make a sport out of rating women. "She's an 8" or whatever. Women see different traits in men, such as how they dress, the quality of their clothes, etc. Also, for pics, women are just better than men at being in pictures. My ex had practiced for years to perfect poses, and as soon as a camera came out, she could look like a model in a pic, but appear to not be trying. In pics of us together, I would sometimes wonder why she was with me. IRL we were similar in attractiveness, but she shined in pics.

Numbers may be skewed on tinder as there's much more males than females and on average females can be more selective. That's not to say this post doesn't have a good point still.

2016-06-23T14:20:56+00:00

Honestly you don't need to pay attention to any data. I'm below average attractiveness and short (5 foot 6), and I still got a few dates and had sex.

AlwaysABride · 2016-06-23T17:17:42+00:00

There was a Seinfeld episode about what percentage of the population is attractive. It is a very small percentage. Maybe 1%, if that - regardless of gender. The other 99% falls mostly in the average category with a few more uglies than attractives.

I blame guys for having shit photos for skewed Tinder stats.

If you go to a bar, I wouldn't say that men have the upper hand, but game will get you a long way whereas looks alone won't.

Learn to tell a story with your Tinder pictures. Image is everything. Rappers aren't as rich as they make it seem, but would you really listen to a rapper talking about ramen noodles and his Ford Fiesta? The funny bunch of you will say 'yeah sure', but in reality you're outliers. Look at Trump as well - he has created a brand. You associate Trump with wealth and prestige, while in reality it seems like he's a bit overestimating it. Kevin O'Leary as well, dude is rich indeed but there are far more rich people who you don't associate with wealth, however O'Leary is somehow a capitalist pig.

What I'm getting at is this - pick photos that are going to increase your social value. On a roof top, with other females (don't listen to girls who say they avoid those, that's nonsense), with animals, etc etc.
