Good-looking people tend to seek out equally beautiful people in social situations

Abstract

Social psychology is fundamentally the study of individuals in groups, yet there remain basic unanswered questions about group formation, structure, and change. We argue that the problem is methodological. Until recently, there was no way to track who was interacting with whom with anything approximating valid resolution and scale. In the current study we describe a new method that applies recent advances in image-based tracking to study incipient group formation and evolution with experimental precision and control. In this method, which we term “in vivo behavioral tracking,” we track individuals’ movements with a high definition video camera mounted atop a large field laboratory. We report results of an initial study that quantifies the composition, structure, and size of the incipient groups. We also apply in-vivo spatial tracking to study participants’ tendency to cooperate as a function of their embeddedness in those crowds. We find that participants form groups of seven on average, are more likely to approach others of similar attractiveness and (to a lesser extent) gender, and that participants’ gender and attractiveness are both associated with their proximity to the spatial center of groups (such that women and attractive individuals are more likely than men and unattractive individuals to end up in the center of their groups). Furthermore, participants’ proximity to others early in the study predicted the effort they exerted in a subsequent cooperative task, suggesting that submergence in a crowd may predict social loafing. We conclude that in vivo behavioral tracking is a uniquely powerful new tool for answering longstanding, fundamental questions about group dynamics

This cascades into effect of women being the center of attraction. As it had been said that women are gate-keepers of the social world. Them being the gate-keepers of the social world inhibited for us to form socially, just by knowing their nature of how detest lowly attractive looking men. Generally we're left with having to find or be friends that are just as attractive us and at that same time many of us do not even have friends sadly. But however, of course people would also like to be friends with someone more attractive than them. Perhaps because our perceived attractiveness goes up and it would also enable them to break into new social circles with their "said" new attractive friend, e.g. people using other people to up-scale.

They have also taken aerial shot to see how these people would group. Most people on similar looks level grouped with each other.

However, they did not post pictures of the participants of faces. I wish they could, because then it would be much more convincing, but it is.. what it is

I have to thanks to the researchers (Jamin Halberstadt , Joshua Conrad Jackson, David Bilkey, Jonathan Jong, Harvey Whitehouse, Craig McNaughton, and Stefanie Zollmann) that has done this study.

The idea of this thread kind of came into my mind, when I observed people hanging out being attractive as each other... it took me time to find the study that backs up that type of observational reality of seeing people alike being together. Now, I digress...

I can tell you without a doubt that this isn't true.

Men tend to give far less of a fuck about what the person looks like in social situations. Chads are friends with ugly guys because they actually get along and enjoy each others company.
Its why male social circles are always more diverse in terms of attractiveness, whereas female ones tend to be very weighted towards whatever the alpha female wants.
Also guys have a much larger scale of what they consider attractive, Foids are ultra selective for what even passes as 'average'.

nice cope

It's not a cope. I am a 2/10 currycel with a Jew nose and I don't have any truecel-tier friends. They're all average or above average and I am nowhere near average. Looks have nothing to do with social relationships. I am living proof of this.

 

[Inceldo]

Before this. People of the same race tend to group together.

Aside from your nose, I bet you are NT and have decent height/frame.

Cope

I'm 2/10 and have no friends

If you have friends then you're a normie larping as incel. Worst case scenario - normies like you can always opt for an arrange marriage. I can't - too ugly for that

we are subhuman monsters, why would they be near us

 

[TheRealChincel]

I always thought attractive women hung out with uglier women to boost their ego.

That is true. I'm 5'11", so I'm above average in terms of height for curries.

It's not cope, I got a terrible, hooked Jew nose which ruins my facial harmony. I'd be 4.5 if it weren't for my nose. I am, however, like somebody else pointed out, NT, and I have decent height, especially for a curry at 5'11", as well as having a decent frame, despite being skinny. I can't do an arranged marriage either because I'm too ugly in the face, and in Islam the woman and her guardian has to agree to the marriage. You can get away with it if you're hindu.

Maybe 10 years ago. Not today in the social media age, where everything is documented for all time

 

[Subhumanism]

There is a clear distinction between not sexually attractive and plain ugliness. While the first can mess with your dating chances, the latter category can make that almost everyone avoids you like the plague.

 

[ImpureIncel]

Yes, even at a very young age.

 

[Cuyen]

A attractive person is attractive everywhere
