The One Reason PUA is dumb

I’m sure this has been mentioned before….because it is such an obvious flaw.

A Chad can literally say anything and still get the foids phone number.

A subhuman will not get the foids phone number……no matter what he says.

It was all decided by the foid in less than one second when she saw what the guy looked like.

I suppose it can work when it's a borderline case. But the biggest benefit is getting guys to actually go out there and try.

True, in studies they say impressions from faces are fast and automatic. They are obtained by brief exposure, in some cases 100 ms or less. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articl...essions from faces are,Willis & Todorov, 2006).

Also, the article discusses attractiveness in relation to "unfit face overgeneralization" and "fitness cues." It explains that unattractive faces, which may resemble faces with genetic anomalies or health issues, are often perceived as less warm, competent, and healthy than attractive faces. This phenomenon is part of the "attractiveness halo effect," where attractive people tend to be judged more positively across various traits.

The article also connects physical attractiveness to evolutionary cues such as averageness, symmetry, sex-linked features, and youthfulness, which are all associated with better genetic fitness. Faces that are more average in appearance (closer to the population mean) or symmetrical are seen as more attractive because they are interpreted as indicators of good health and genetic diversity. For females, femininity in the face can signal sexual maturity and fertility, while for males, masculinity may indicate the ability to handle stress and a strong immune system.
