Based on the straight line correlation on the graph, combined with “No s**t, Sherlock,” I’m going to have to agree and say: Yes, yes - looks are very important.

This in no way inclines me to be dishonest about being weird.

Not receiving help for my autism while I was young sucked the life out of me and robbed me of my best years.

Some people look really good bald!
You could take up lifting weights, and shave your head, sporting a light shade of stubble on your face to emphasize your good facial features - women love that.
You’re only 33 so you’re still young enough to turn things around - it’s not too late!

Another proof that I am male brained. o-o
Grandma is attracted to people she calls ugly. Im guessing this is common for women. There's also the saying 'The man must be only a bit more handsome than Satan'.
If I had to guess Uncle Fester from Addams Family is very loved for his looks.
Shaun Ryder was adorable.

I'm not convinced the graph is particularly accurate, though.
If you look at couples, they are overwhelmingly in the same attractiveness league.
I stand by what I said.

I think a lot of women do end up with men who initially saw as 'not hot' looks-wise.
Otherwise, they'll die single.
I wonder if the bottom graph correlates with how women perceive themselves.

That's actually an astute observation.
Women tend to be pretty tough on themselves. We base a lot of our value on our looks and we're usually critical about it and compare ourselves to other women often. We tend to feel like we're not "good enough."

Back in high school girls liked touching and running their hands through my hair, it was always thin and soft. I would get a compliment "So soft!"
I also got startled a lot by unexpected touching which caused a lot of people to pull away from me...
Yeah, I've tried shaving my head twice in my life. I don't like the sensation of baldness, with or without the shave, I'm honestly not that comfortable without the hair on my head. Some people call the shave "liberation from the hair", myself, I don't like the bare skin.
I grew a beard during the past couple of months during the pandemic. I started growing while I took a vacation to move into my new house. Then I noticed the benefit of padding the mask away from my face, so the mask itches less. So the beard definitely stays until he pandemic is over. Yes, indeed the beard makes the mask less effective... But.

So what are the default "standards" of attractiveness for both men and women, as well as for queerfolk?
Note: I prefer the term "queerfolk" only because it is easier to say than "LGBTQQIP2SAA".
