The Mathematics of Beauty 
The Rules Revisited | November 28, 2011 | by Andrew

 The other day I was reading the blog for OKCupid.com
[http://blog.okcupid.com/] (which is extremely interesting by the way,
I highly recommend it) and came across a study that, based on a
large data set, concluded a point I made in a post about male taste
and female attractiveness
[http://therulesrevisited.blogspot.com/2011/08/i-am-strongly-convinced-that-it-does.html].
While I won't pretend that I am being humble about the affirmation, I
still think it is worthwhile noting it here, in case there were any
cynics:

Sounds pretty comparable. For those of you that didn't read the
original post on here, the implication is that you shouldn't be
concerned if a particular guy seems more interested in your seemingly
better-looking friend, or even is a guy makes an unfavorable comment
about your looks, because other men you are interested in may very
well consider you beautiful. While there are limits to this
phenomenon (e.g. a two on a particular guy's ten point scale
[http://therulesrevisited.blogspot.com/2011/08/10-point-scale.html] is
essentially ugly to everyone), there is a suprising variance in male
opinion when it comes to feminine attractiveness
[http://therulesrevisited.blogspot.com/2011/09/feminine-beauty-is-highly-controllable.html].

Anyway, check out the OKCupid article, it's a good read. Here is the
