Best 1 -10 Looks Scale
TLDRThe video script discusses the flaws in the conventional 1 to 10 rating system for attractiveness, emphasizing that beauty is both objective and subjective. It proposes a new rating scale starting from 1 to 8 based on universal indicators of health and beauty, and then introduces a 9 to 10 rating that accounts for intrinsic factors and extrinsic factors such as personality and social status. This comprehensive scale aims to provide a more accurate and nuanced assessment of attractiveness.
Takeaways
- 🔍 Beauty is subjective and cannot be universally rated as a perfect 10/10, as this would imply a singular standard of attractiveness.
- 📈 The rating system proposed in the script starts with an objective scale from 1 to 8, based on universal indicators of health and beauty like skin quality and bone structure.
- 🚫 A rating of 1/10 would be reserved for extreme deformities across all universal beauty features, such as the case with the Elephant Man.
- 🤕 Ratings from 2 to 4/10, or 'sub-5s', indicate the presence of deformities in at least two universal indicators, with severity determining the exact rating.
- 👤 A 'normie' or average person would score a 5/10, having no severe deformities but also not excelling in any universal beauty indicators.
- 🌟 'Tier normies' have no deformities and are average or above average in universal beauty indicators, while 7/10 'Chad light' and 'Stacy light' are above average in one feature and average in others.
- 💯 A rating of 8/10 signifies no deformities and above-average features in universal indicators of beauty, such as clear skin and good bone structure.
- 🎨 The subjective scale begins at 9/10, termed 'intrinsic factors', which are personal preferences not universally sought after, like hair color or eye color.
- 💖 An individual's intrinsic preference can boost a rating by one if they match your personal preferences, but should not decrease a rating as they are subjective.
- 🌐 'Extrinsic factors', like personality and social status, can also add a plus one to a person's rating, separate from their physical features.
- 📈 The perfect 10/10 rating is achieved by combining objective attractiveness (8/10), personal preference (+1), and extrinsic factors (+1).
Q & A
What is the main issue with the traditional 1 to 10 rating system for attractiveness?
-The traditional 1 to 10 rating system is problematic because it is subjective and does not account for universal indicators of health and beauty. It can lead to unrealistic standards and unfair judgments of people's appearances.
What are the universal indicators of health and beauty mentioned in the script?
-The universal indicators of health and beauty include skin quality, bone development, and facial harmony. These features are genetic markers of health and attractiveness that are sought after across different cultures and societies.
What is the significance of rating someone as a 1 out of 10?
-A rating of 1 out of 10 would indicate the presence of massive deformities across all universal features of beauty, such as terrible skin quality, multiple bone deformities, and zero facial harmony. An example given is the Elephant Man, who suffered from severe ailments causing grotesque bodily formation.
What characteristics define a 'normie' in the context of the script?
-A 'normie' is someone who does not have any severe deformities in the universal indicators of beauty or only has minor deformities in one category, such as mild acne or a slightly recessed jaw. Most people fall into this category.
How does the average attractiveness of men affect the rating of individual men?
-The average attractiveness of men has declined over time due to factors like obesity, and the rating scale has not adjusted to this change. As a result, the average man is perceived as less attractive, leading to most men being rated below five by women.
What are 'tier normies' in the context of the rating scale?
-Tier normies are individuals who have no deformities in any of the universal indicators of beauty but also do not have superb development in any of the universal indicators. They simply have basic development of the universal features.
What is the objective rating for someone who is above average in one universal feature and average in the others?
-A person who is above average in one of the universal features and at least average in the others would be rated as a 7 out of 10, also referred to as 'Chad light' or 'Stacy light'.
What are intrinsic factors in the rating scale?
-Intrinsic factors are physical characteristics that are subjectively preferred and not universally desired. These can include hair color, eye color, skin color, physique, style, and many other slight deviations of physical features.
How can intrinsic factors influence a person's rating?
-Intrinsic factors can add a plus one to a person's rating if they fall into someone's subjective preference. For example, if someone prefers blonde hair, a 'Stacy' with blonde hair might be rated one point higher than her objective rating.
What are extrinsic factors in the rating scale?
-Extrinsic factors are things separate from physical features that people may find attractive, such as personality, social status, wealth, and other external elements.
What combination of factors makes someone a '10' on the rating scale?
-To be a '10', a person must first be an objective '8' (a 'Chad' or 'Stacy'), then have physical traits that are preferred by the rater (such as hair color), and finally possess personality traits or hobbies that the rater finds appealing.
What is the advice given at the end of the script for individuals?
-The script encourages individuals to rate themselves using the provided scale and to consider how they might rate someone they are attracted to. It also suggests looking for ways to improve one's rating by focusing on aspects that can be controlled.
