What percent of the population do you find attractive. It doesn’t have to be ‘dateworthy’ attractive or amazingly attractive either. Just people you find physically desirable in one way or another.
Assume that the filters of gender (whatever gender you’re into) and age (whatever ages you’re into) have already been applied, so that you’re only counting those of the right age & gender.
I would guess anywhere from 35%-50%. If you’d asked me a year ago, when I was still around school, and a lot of college aged kids, I would probably have said 75%. Even people that aren’t great looking, still look pretty good, and possibly look the best they ever will. Now that I’m out in the R.W. and I see more people who aren’t in their 20’s and are tired from life or whatever, the percentage has dropped.
Now, I would say 35%-50% are attractive, but I would say that at least 90% of people have some sort of physically attractive quality. Only about 20% (maybe less) could qualify as doing-a-double-take-cause-a-car-accident beautiful. (I’m speaking of females.) After having typed all this, I’m not even sure. I haven’t tried to quantify it before, maybe I’ll have to start making an effort to be more aware of my superficial/shallow thoughts.
Really, I should adjust that figure. It’s probably closer to 85 or 90 percent. I find almost every woman attractive in all of their diversity of sizes, shapes, and ethnicities.
Well I like males who look like they’re 19-29. About 10% look really attractive to me and that’s when I am really generous and it’s summer and they are wearing t-shirts. In the winter it goes down because I tell what they look like under all the sweaters and things. I am female, into males.
% of females I find physically attractive = 50%
% of females I find mentally/socially/personality attractive = 50%
% of female population I would (theoretically) have (at least) a single sexual encounter with = 85%
% of males I find sexually attractive = … Uh, what’s 7 divided by the world population? in 38 years, I have met 7 men that I was sexually attracted to, not that I ever did anything, but I at least acknowledged it to myself.
If I am at Walmart, I would have to say less than 1% of the population there is attractive.
If I am at a hoity toity mall in the area, it has to be 90% are all beautiful people out to shop.
Demographics, baby.
Anywhooo, as a hobbiest photographer, I’d like to say that each face individually is beautiful on their own.
% of males I find physically attractive = 60-70%
% of males I find mentally/socially/personality attractive = 50%
% of male population I would (theoretically) have (at least) a single sexual encounter with = 85%
% of females I find sexually attractive - Maybe about 5%
% of females I find physically attractive = 45%
% of females I find mentally/socially/personality attractive = 30%
% of female population I would (theoretically) have (at least) a single sexual encounter with = 90% (what? hey, I’m a guy…)
% of males I find physically attractive = 25% (In a wow, he’s a handsome chap kind of way. Think Vin Diesel or Denzel)
% of males I find sexually attractive = 0%
