      Didn’t she post the picture and asked people to rate her?

      I agree that it’s ridiculous and insane but if she asked for being superficially rated and she gets that… You really can’t blame the guys rating her.

      Almost everyone is uglier than this girl anyway. If she is a 7, we are 3. :)

    I’m tentatively giving her an 8 but I need to see the MRI and CT scan to be certain.

      Wow dude. We havent even seen the health stats from her apple watch. 7 is generous when we don’t know her families history of heart disease. She’s sitting at a generous 4 at best until we see her 23 and me.

      Too many eyes but not fat or disfigured. 4/10.

      The whole thing is designed to allow them to call people (especially women) “mid”. They arbitrarily chose to use a gaussian distribution pattern so they had an excuse not to give anyone a score beyond 6s.

      But real answer is be a hugely successful fashion model who the sub creator found attractive. Then their “objective rating standards” would include arbitrary criteria to bundle your face in. The whole sub could be replaced with a trivial ML model if it were actually about just giving their “objective” ratings. The internal weights used by the ML model would make about as much sense as the crap spouted in the screenshot.

        I wonder how many people would actually sort them similar to how they’re sorted in the first picture.

        Because to me the distribution of attractive people between 5.0 and 10 seems to be completely random.

        I’d note that almost all of the headshots there have a lot of makeup, and the named ones are almost certainly professional makeup.

        You don’t even see light makeup until the 7s and 6.5 range. Damn neckbeard(s?) don’t even know what a woman actually looks like, and apparently expect women to pay for a professional cosmetologist to do them up before they leave the house.

        Edit: it might be an amusing experiment to post those given a “9.5”, but from a shot where they have their normal day to day “face” on and see what rank they get. Or at least how long until its deleted.

        Is that why the text they wrote was so disturbing to read? Have they lived in an echo chamber for so long that they think it’s okay to talk about a person like they’re a cadaver. F’ing creepy

          On one hand, rating peoples’ appearance is the whole point of that subreddit, but on the other hand… My God, do these guys have a talent for making it disgustingly creepy.

          I wouldn’t even expect actual cosmetic surgeons to talk like that.

            Okay so this is anecdotal but there is (was?) a subreddit called transpassing and I feel like it ended up having an unsettling vibe as well at times. People would end up giving opinions there that boiled down to “you won’t pass until you get cosmetic surgery”. It felt like it fed into people’s anxieties about passing rather than being a positive environment, and as well became a space where transmedicalists could thrive.

            I dunno I guess my point is that maybe it’s just a bad idea in general to have a space where you judge people’s appearance, because it will always devolve.

        I went back to reddit after that whole “protest” and that sub got popular during that period, it kept popping up in /r/all front page for me. That probably shows what kind of people made it popular.

    This subreddit astounds me, and Reddit keeps recommending it to me for some reason 😭
