Discussion The numerous aspects of lookism and their importance.

[JollyGentleman]

This is a list of the various aspects of our physical appearance and overall genetics that are more or less beyond our control which can’t be fixed easily. Are there any that I left out?

I would attest that they’re all critical to our appearance in their own way. Many if not most of us are deficient in multiple areas which is we're sub-5 in looks. It's precisely why we’re in this situation to begin with. It was all pre-determined before we were even born.

• Race and Ethnicity
• Height
• Baldness
• Abnormal facial features
• Facial asymmetry
• Teeth alignment
• Shape and size of eyes, nose, and lips
• Skin conditions
• Scars/birthmarks
• Disabilities/Physical deformities

Arguably scars and birth marks would boost appeal

I would much rather have an unblemished face. Even if all of us were Chads, I would think that scars/birthmarks would still be a very niche thing. It just doesn’t seem like a feature especially if it's located on the face that would be appealing to the average foid.

Scars is very much a niche thing, it works on stereotypically masculine men but not other archetypes at all.

Yep, that’s exactly what I said. Scars on your face are sort of like having a dark triad persona. It’s only appealing and effective if you meet the looks threshold.

Suffice to say the vast majority of us won’t come close to that at any point in our lives.
