Below-average attractiveness predicts 1.5-3x higher chances of remaining virgin during early adulthood compared to above-average attractiveness (Haydon et al., 2013)

This is based on data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (a.k.a. Add Health) which collected health data of 20,000 U.S. Americans and interviewed them in some intervals starting with 7th- through 12th-graders during the 1994-95 years up until 2008. There are some limitations to this study, mainly it only considers late bloomers who were still virgins by age 18 (N = 2,857, representative of roughly 25% of the population). Secondly, it only tracks up to the age of 28.5±1.92 years (at which point about 7% of the overall population are still virgins, which settles to 1% mid-30s).

So among late bloomers with below-average attractiveness about 17% remained virgin, whereas among late bloomers with above-average attractiveness about only 8% remained virgins (P = 0.0001). For males (not females) unattractiveness predicts a statistically significantly worse outcome than average attractiveness, but the sex difference is non-significant as far as I can tell. All of the 26 very unattractive male late bloomers did have sex by around age 28 though. So it's not a huge effect, but there you go.

Can confirm. Women are not sexually attracted to me and thus life is hard.

Wow, what a bombshell!

So, if you're still a virgin past 18, you might be an ugly bastard. If you're still a virgin past 21, you're definitely an ugly bastard.

I love his sub, and thank the mods and posts made here.

The fact that there's all this data proving incel's are correct about looks mattering, with actual scientific studies and data to back up our claims, yet the normies find science and data obsolete when it comes to them not liking the results that's been proven.

Imagine today. Must be even worse now
