SuicideFuel Turns out we're probably uglier than we think we are

The studies kept yielding the same finding: unattractive people overestimate their attractiveness, while attractive people underrate their looks.

It thus appears that unattractive people maintain illusory self-perceptions of their attractiveness, whereas attractive people’s self-views are more grounded in reality.”

“Overall, attractive more than unattractive participants differentiated between attractive and unattractive individuals. In particular, unattractive participants were more favorable toward unattractive stimulus persons than were attractive participants.”

Unattractive people think they are more attractive than they are, while attractive people underrate their attractiveness

New research published in the Scandinavian Journal of Psychology suggests that unattractive people are largely unaware of how unattractive they are.

JFL. explains why so many "incels" end up ascending

I wonder who that could apply to?

 

[Balding Subhuman]

That was true at least for me a couple of years ago. I thought I was at least average or even a little above average, like 5 or a 6. Took me some time to realise the truth.

Truth is like sticking sharpened piece of soap in your dickhole.

 

[ADHD_cel]

I realized that five years ago

The study also mentions that unattractive people overestimate everyone's attractiveness, not only their own. Which makes sense - if you're ugly your standards for attractiveness might tend to be lower.

Oh… *gulp*

 

[lemon21]

I think im fucking ugly so i doubt it, if i think something about my appareance i doubt i would be praising myself

 

[universallyabhorred]

Yes I recently realized my face is 0/10 and I look uglier than the elephant man.

 

[Hikikomori_cel]

I percieve myself as 2-3/10, but i'm probably as low as 0/10 irl

IT is a perfect example. They think that even blue haired landwhales and soys are attractive because they themselves are ugly.

 

[sneed (not chuck)]

I know I have 3/10 face. It doesn't matter if the true score is lower its already OVER.

 

[andinocel]

A bluepilled ugly person reading this will conclude "hey im not as ugly as I thought!", but what its really saying is: 'Rate yourself. Now shave off a couple of points from that'
If someone were to ask me to rate myself, I'd instinctively self rate myself as a 5, which means I'm objectively a 2 or 3

i want to end my life

Yeah it’s true. I always thought of myself as a 6/10 when looking into mirror. In reality I’m a 1/10. Believe me. I see it on photos. And how other people react to me. People stare at me; laugh about me when they see me (strangers), talk about me. I’m 26 now and this has been going on ever since I was 13.

This happened to me yesterday (this happened so many times before in different places, I’m literally a 1/10). All these people are lucky that laws exist.

I went to a doctor appointment. When I walked into the building where the doctor is, 2 post-men walked out. One like 30, the other maybe 60. The older fat one said something to the younger one about me like « never saw someone that ugly » and something else insulting my looks, then they laughed. As I waited for the elevator, I looked outside (you can see well outside bc entrance is only glass) they were loading something into their van parked in front of the building. They were both looking back at me where I stood waiting for elevator, and they still laughed. I really don’t get why people are so disrespectful. When I went to the waiting-room, a man was there and stared at me the whole time. But the first incidence is what really upsets me…

No way.

I'm pretty aware that I'm 5'5 with a 2/10 face

Its just a sick twisted reverse psychology version of the halo effect and more gaslighting bluepill garbage. In other words ugly people more ugly, hot people even more hot.

probably bc you only view yourself from good angles

 

[Grim_Reaper]

I used to think I was normal-looking, but the bad treatment I receive from other people begs to differ.
