It's over boyos; the big speed dating study that found a high physical attractiveness correlation with romantic interest put the correlation at..... r=.36.

Can someone explain this simply for us lowIQcels?

Guys, 0.36 doesn't necessarily means it's low. In this case, It just means there are other factors that determine attraction. Physical attractiveness could have a low r but still be the highest value. So if you compare the r for looks at 0.36 and and r of 0.2 for personality, the. Attractiveness is still higher and more correlated than personality

Also, dude, you should really reexamine what you're doing here. What's your goal exactly? Convince blackpilled people that the world is actually fair, the blue pill is the way and there's someone out there for anyone? Well, look at it like this:

1) You won't convince those blackpillers who don't go deep into the academic aspect - they're going to prioritize their experience over your arguments, and their experience is that the black pill is correct.
2) You won't convince those blackpillers who do go deep into the academic aspect because you constantly rely on flawed or wrong methodology to make your interpretations.
3) You won't convince the bluepillers because they don't need to be convinced and they don't come here anyway.
4) You won't even convince yourself, in case that's what you're actually trying to do - this kind of self-delusion works only for a while and when it doesn't anymore you're going to be in for a world of hurt. Believe me, I've been there.

So, you're basically wasting your time here.

Results suggest that gender differences predicted by evolutionary theory may not hold when people interact with potential romantic partners face-to-face.

All fine and well, but there's this one little glitch when it involves meeting online.

The study also says that there were few people in the low end of earning… all of them were psychology students, the average age was 18

It is a nice study, but has some limitations, I’d say especially considering how women preferences might change over time

you missed the most important part of the study.

"For example, Meltzer, McNulty, Jackson, and Karney (2014b) found that for men, the physical attractiveness of their spouses significantly predicted their marital satisfaction over a 4-year period to a much greater extent compared with women. However, the authors themselves note that it is not clear whether physical attractiveness is always more important to men than women; it may be that physical attractiveness matters equally to men and women in short-term mating contexts, but that physical attractiveness matters more to men in long-term mating contexts (Meltzer, McNulty, Jackson, & Karney, 2014a). Thus, direct evidence to date supporting the tenets of evolutionary theories for heterosexual romantic attraction is mixed. A recent meta-analysis (Eastwick et al., 2014) summarizing data from 97 studies (tens of thousands of data points) and a variety of different methodologies does not find empirical support for the claim that heterosexual men’s and women’s experiences of romantic attraction reliably differ according to potential partners’ physical attractiveness or earning prospects. When placing our findings into proper context with prior research, we place more weight on meta-analytic results. Thus, although we have reviewed some evidence in favor of sex differences in mate preferences, we believe that the bulk of the evidence (including the present study’s results) suggests that there are not sex differences in mate preferences in face-to-face, short-term mating contexts. Indeed, it appears as though men and women both tend to prefer a partner who is attractive and personable, and has high earning prospects."

Personal warmth (PERSONALITY) came in exerting an independent effect of .29, and earning potential .19.

You guys act.like you can't make yourself more physically attractive. I feel sorry for women because ugly women can't do much.

Guys can build muscle and lose fat which makes you want more physically attractive. We have the capability to looks max more.

Look how much women spend money and effort on their beauty. If you doneve half as much, you will be in top 20 percent.

Body build, strict diet, posture exercises, physical hobby like climbing. post picture for style advice and looks max. Then approach women in person, learn chat tipsnfrom YouTube. Once you got rejected 100 times, u will no longer be a newb.

Put the work in, women do

There was a post in redpill 5 7 soft indian dude that worked out and went from 2.5 to 8.5. I see the data on the street, girls date men as tall or shorer than them all the time.
