I don't have a rating system like that, but you have a point. My girlfriend has an acquaintance who has an attitude like you've never seen, and is easily the ugliest and fattest in the group she hangs out with.

My observations started about 25 years ago with the first '10' that I knew very well, my sister. She was despised by other girls and loved by guys for both her personality and her looks. Now I see the same thing happening to her daughter.

It's entirely possible that I'm simply more comfortable with very good looking women and that's why they're more comfortable and friendly to me.

And by the way, I used the 1-10 rating system for the benefit of this forum, which loves to rate and categorize people

LOL your sister is a 10 - obviously your rating scale is very subjective Moderator cut: snip

So why are you single then?

Call me crazy, but I've never understood people giving advice when they themselves cannot personally back it up.

It sounds like your rating system is a bit subjective. Tell me do you differentiate between what is considered attractive to you and what is seen as generally attractive in the wider society?

It's like they've been dealt a less than perfect hand so they've decide to go through the rest of their life being angry. Either that or they overcompensate by demanding even more

Looking back over the girls I've dated and/or been friends with you'd think I'm incredibly shallow But I realize now that I picked those girls for another reason entirely! They were the nice ones, the sweet ones, the ones who were easy to get along with and didn't hate every other woman that crossed their path.

This probably doesn't apply to all 10s but it's easy to spot the ones who are really nice. They're the ones with few if any female friends. That's because they're despised and shunned not only for their looks but also for their charisma with guys. Since they haven't been able to make friends with other girls they're forced to make friends with guys, so naturally they become more comfortable with guys, and guys like them even more then they normally would.

These are the same women who don't like to be fawned over for their looks and often deemphasize their looks by wearing less make up. Since they need male friends they want guys to treat them like human beings, not trophies.

I've also found that these women have a certain vulnerability about them. You can plainly see how they've been hurt by the way they've been treated by other women. It makes me sad But on the bright side as long as you don't act like a lovesick puppy around them they'll make a guy an excellent friend and perhaps more
OK when I first read this I had to check to see if it was posted on April 1st.

Then I carefully read it again, and can only assume this was posted to get a hornets nest going...what is it nearing, like ten pages? Bravo!

And to further prove this guy is just full of it and posting to stir up a hornets nest lets look at this post about 10's by him on 2-6-2010 at 3:21

"When I was younger I would pick out the hottest girl I could find and unless her personality reminded me of a horror movie I would try to work around it. Needless to say I ended up going out with girls who were shall we say...less than stable. But hey, at least they were a lot of fun to look at

How things have changed. These days it takes almost nothing for a physically beautiful woman to totally ruin my opinion of her. Naturally I still find an attractive woman attractive, and I'd love to find the 'whole package' embodied in one person. But the reality is 9 times out of 10 things go downhill the moment a pretty girl opens her mouth. Maybe it's just me but it seems that if you're blessed with good genes, you should be able to find FEWER things to complain about, not MORE."

THAT'S TOTALLY OPPOSITE OF THIS THREADS CONCLUSIONS

I'm taking other people's opinion of my sister's and niece's looks. Obviously being family I don't personally find either of them 'attractive'.

I'll take a bow even though this post was a serious question to an honest observation. If it happens to be controversial so be it! We want lively debate on this forum, yes? I don't mind taking a few scraps for the greater good

BTW that took me all of 5 minutes to find. When you make up stuff on the net, make sure you haven't spoken on the subject previously, oppositely.
