what's the distribution of male/female attractiveness ratings?

[leeringlurker]

So you know we got the 1 through 10 scale?  What percentage of people are in each group?
Well it's not like 10% of men are 1, 10% of men are 2, 10% of men 3 three...etc

I think it's something more like this (see attached) where 60% of people are in the 4-6 range, and only 3% are in the 1 range and maybe 0.5% in the 10 range.

Is that different for women?

For women it seems like 80% are in the 5+ range, and only 1% are in the 1-3 landwhale range....where as much more men are in the 1-3 range.  

I found some post on the internet where someone tried to break this down and they got this graph showing women more attractive on average: http://images.lesswrong.com/t3_lj2_1.png?v=8c735e5cf3daf5bd5e881695e6443935  but I think it's more extreme. (full post)

what this means is fucked up...if you have a best chance with your looksmatch, it means that if you're on the low end there's going to be a far more men with your rating than women so there's no way you can all get your looksmatch.  I feel this could be the core reason while inceldom exists.  When you're a low range man, there just aren't women in your looksmatch range.  Maybe in the past women were rated lower on average?

Does Fakeup factor into woman attractiveness ?

Does Fakeup factor into woman attractiveness ?

that's a good point...maybe genetically women and men have the same distribution, but fakeup and a life long obsession with looking good (and getting more pressure to diet/exercise when they're young and wearing sunscreen and shit like that) is why women end up having a higher rating than men on average.  If we banned all fakeup and other cosmetic shit for women could things return to equilibrium?
