The PSL rating system has a range between 0 and 8 PSL. Realistically speaking between 0 and 1.5 PSL you will be seen as objectively unattractive, and >6.5 PSL objectively attractive; People within these two brackets have more or less the same experiences. a 6.5 PSL won't live marginally differently from a 7.5 PSL. Likewise for the inverse.

It's within these two ranges that people tend to have subjective opinions on who they find to be more attractive or repulsive, which is why I think using them
to gauge irl experiences to be largely irrelevant. They are only good for classifying, since the people residing in these ranges are nearly statistical anomalies.

PSL rating : IRL rating
< =1.5 PSL 0 i.e OBJECTIVE DEFORMITY
2 PSL 1
2.5 PSL 2
3 PSL 3
3.5 PSL 4
4 PSL 5
4.5 PSL 6
5 PSL 7
5.5 PSL 8
6 PSL 9
< = 6.5 PSL 10 i.eOBJECTIVE ADONIS

I think this ratng system helps desaturate the regions of 1 to 3 and 8 to 10 normie ratings. In the standard 0-8 PSL, converting to normie rating would give you 6.5 to 8 PSL as the 8 to 10 range, at which point it becomes hard to distinguish between 8s,9s and 10s.
A 5.5 PSL 8 will have a marginally different experience from a 6.5 PSL 10, which I think is the main benefit of this rating system.
Benefit 2 is that it allows us to remove the fodder from rating attractiveness.

ass

PSL and PSL-based scales are lost causes now

PSL = out-of-10-rating MINUS 2

Because PSL brainlets butchered it by misusing it as the 10-scale times 0.8, the current usages of the PSL scale and the /10 scale are like inches and centimeters.

I am using this scale cause it's the standard on this site. Also I like the way it is divided into .25 decimal deviations.

yeah but now you are making it even more arbitrary and condensed by making every 'milestone' wrt the typical psl scale be a .5 deviation, with .25 being the minimum amount.

why not just have it be integers

i've even seen people do .1 deviation, my god it is so stupid and meaningless.

.1 is going too far lol. I think that PSL has clear divisions in.5 intervals; we tend to agree that 5.5 psl mogs 5 psl pretty hard. You should also take into account that I have removed a big part of the scale for convenience's sake.

Good effort with rates I think this a more “designed” system compared to PSL.You do need to get people to join though


PSL system isn’t exactly “decided” it is pure statistics where every point is a standard deviation.So a 5 is incredibly different from a 6

You see PSL system wasn’t designed per say.
I explained it in another thread of mine I’ll copy it here.

————————
Height and body etc. are not considered when rating PSL.If you consider them it’s irl or smv measurement.PSL is just face.

Looksmax always used an 8 point measurement system since the beginning.This means every point 1 to 8 is a standard deviation.

I’ll explain and give an example for anyone confused.You know how when you look at stats you see that in US 5 9” height is roughly 50 percentile and 6 feet is roughly 85 percentile while 6 3” is 97.5 …

PSL scale has the same use,as in instead of giving a vague number out of 10 it tells you how rare it is and it’s actually useful.

PSL 4- 50%
PSL 5- 84.15%
PSL 6- 97.25%
PSL 7- 99.87%
PSL 8- 99.9968%

Okay since we know the theory now let’s see how it’s applied to individuals. For example PSL 5 is like 6 feet height which means roughly 15 guys are that good looking or above out of 100 and just like the height while it’s enough and above average it’s not that special but it should be enough.Let’s look at PSL 6.It’s like 6 3” height (would be 275 out 10000 men) which means it’s something you see here and there but not common and certainly stands out a bit.Maaaaybe you can try to get into low-lowmid tier modeling but it’s not strong enough.Then there is 6.5 PSL which is now model tier and the type of face you rarely see in everyday life.While not international super model tier it’s very strong,enough to model.PSL 7 is international super model (13/ 10000 face).

I myself consider 8 PSL as something theoretical/ideal,something people can’t actually be.Even the idea of not everyone liking same type of men/women supports this.

My rating system is designed around being usable irl, to avoid the fluff of psl 7.5 models or psl 0.5 deformities that you will never need to compare yourself to in real situations, cause they're so rare that they're irrelevant. The way you have illustrated the various psl levels fits my rating system fairly well. Tho I think that psl 6 is rarer than 2.75% of people.

This rating system also makes 10 and 0 an actual rating you can give to people instead of just deeming them as points than can never be reached.
Salludon, Amnesia, Gandy, O pry would be 10s for example
and BlackOps2Cel in his infamous photo would be a 0

Actually they are factors, at least here. Which is why most ratings are shit. They will give a 4/10 faced guy a 3 PSL if he's 5'9" tall but 4 PSL if he's 6'2" or whatever.

I completely agree with you, people have ruined it here. Not to mention they think race is a factor too in PSL ratings. Jfl, what a cope. But like you said; they are using it wrong. Sadly that's how most people use it nowadays, hence why they are bad raters on here. They will give the 5/10 white guy a 6/10 and the 5/10 brown guy a 4/10. It's delusional.

Nope it's not important at all for objective ratings. For smv it depends on location. In the west coloring isn't important. It's different in ethnic countries though, there coloring matters a lot. But when you come to the west in the future you shall see for yourself.

Yeah not in the country you're in now, but you would get one here in the west. Only deathniks here cope with coloring. I have a green-eyed tyrone lite friend who told me the only one who complimented him on his eye color were deathnik chicks (Moroccans, Turkish, etc). I asked him because I knew in the back of my mind that it's only deathniks that care and he confirmed it for me without knowing I was gonna say it. :Comfy:

Moroccans here do well with other Moroccans, but OP is interested in white girls and they don't care about coloring (otherwise they would not go for darkskin black guys and only get with lightskin black guys, for instance).

Depends on what kind of women you're going for. Are you going for a self-hating ethnic woman? Then yes, coloring matters: the lighter you are the better it is. But if you're going for a white woman, then coloring does not matter. Only your harmony matters. I legit am friends with a European girl who strictly likes Dravidian-tier South Asians. @LooksOrDeath All her partners were Sri Lankans or South Indians. She said I was "too light" but I'm literally medium brown. :lul:

When I see white women with non-white men, they're mostly with darkskin black guys. I do live in a major multicultural city. I see them with Moroccans or Turkish men sometimes but not as much as I see them with men from Suriname and the Antilles.

They do, they have a lot of smv in the west but there are copers who think their smv is limited to burgerland. Even brown chicks like black guys in the west, JFL. I'm talking Middle Eastern/North African bitches, even those that wear hijab. :ROFLMAO:

She's cute ngl, jfl that's why I don't take views on this forum seriously anymore when it comes to phenotype preferences. Only thing I do take seriously on this forum is when guys here say women like badboys, that's just a fact. No one is different, even the most religious woman will be the same way. Again, I'm talking about women in the west and not globally. Western women are mentally ill, imagine wanting a badboy over a genuine nice person. I have a friend who's a very nice person and he always gets rejected because of how nice he is. Clown world.

And you're right you don't have to be a degen badboy, you can be a badboy without being degen, sadly most badboys are degen though. I have yet to come across a non-degen badboy though.
