Interesting development currently on the Poll. 6 is the most common male response, but no female respondents rate themselves as a 6.
I have been told I am a handsome fella with very nice skin.
You’ve posted the wrong picture. That’s just some normal looking guy.
Either that, or you have some severe self-image issues you might want to look into (as apparently, chicks don’t dig those either).
Heck, the guy in that picture sure looks better than me, and I’m not hideous by any stretch.
Voted 7 for other people. Would be 9 for myself.
This could explain why I’m an atheist.
I don’t honestly know, so I just go with 5 as a default.
Shrug, I have no illusions about what I look like. I’ve been told my face by women that they could never date me cuz I was too ugly.
There’s no need for that. You’re good looking. I guess most people see themselves really differently from the way others see them.
I’d put myself about a 5 or 6. Not hideous, though I occasionally look like a before photo of Jennifer Grey (who the hell wants to look like anyone’s “before” picture?). I used to be fairly hot. Now I’m mildly chunky, but still have pretty decent hair. I can live with that.
It means she knows how to fuck.
I was really handsome in my 20’s. Not so much in my 40’s. However, for a 43yo, I’m quite handsome. Then again, I could just have an ego problem. Sometimes, when I get drunk, I stare at myself in the mirror. I basically get the beer goggles for myself.
I rated myself a 5.
I’m pretty generic looking, no strong features; fat but not circus-lady fat. I tend to look younger than I am, which is cool. My skin is really oily which on the plus side means no wrinkles yet but on the minus side means I still break out at 47.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone that I’d call really ugly; most people seem to be either ridiculously good-looking or average.
Jragon, in addition to being not-ugly, you also have really pretty eyes. 
It means that when I go out and am made up, I attract men who are only interested in casual sex relationships. I have yet to meet one man who was interested in actual dating.
I know from hearing from some men that they’ll keep an ugly/fat chick around for sex, but that’s it.
I suspect it may be how you meet men. Are you meeting the men after you get made up and go out? Or are you getting made up and going out because you have a date, and then finding out they only want casual sex?
Because the first option seems *designed *to attract men who want casual sex.
I would probably be a solid 5.5 to 6 (for my age), but peri-menopause has seen fit to delete my eyebrows and give my face some odd pigmentation. I call it “piebald”, my husband calls it “pinto” (jokes about exploding when rear-ended are welcome and appreciated). Given that, I rated a four, but if I lost another 20 pounds I could probably kick it up half a notch. Fairly even features, decent teeth, okay hair, can clean up decently.
I said a 4. Fat (avocadoplanet as opposed to hamplanet*), don’t wear makeup. Only ever had two guys interested in me, and, uh, the most recent was when I was in Grade 10.
- Because someone will ask. A hamplanet is someone 250lbs+ who stuffs their face and blah blah stereotypes. I call myself an avocadoplanet because I’m improving myself but it’s a gradual process. Eating the right type of fat: avocado.
To be honest, if you’re attracting a lot of men who want to have sex with you, it’s probably not an indicator that they perceive you as particularly fat and/or ugly.
“Wow, she sure is fat and ugly! She’ll be my first choice for a hookup today!”
No, not seeing it.
I’m a solid 7 right now. There was a time in my 20’s when I may have been an 8.
Six and a half. If I lost weight I might hit 8.
Ha, this! I can clean up to a little higher, but what you get when I’m not doing anything is middle of the pack. Sometimes after having styled myself into something decent I ask myself why I don’t do this more often, then remember that I’m lazy and don’t give a shit.
Twisted steel and sex appeal bod, face that shows some hard living replete with dueling scars… I’ll go with lucky #7.
I always thought of myself as a 6, but Madame P. informs me that since I’ve gone gray, I’m a 7.
