~This post is dedicated to clear up confusion on what PSL is (as an Introduction to Looksmaxxing Terms)~
Preface:
1. I am doing this because I want to. I'm not looking for a BOTB tag or any praise for that matter. Any support/criticism would be appreciated.
2. I have done extensive research on this topic. If any information is incorrect please contact me.
3. I am very much aware of how many posts I've made (upon the time of me posting this). If this factor results in this post being taken down, so be it.
Are you more attractive than the average person?
I'd like you to try and answer this question to the best of your ability without any further knowledge. You will be asked this question again.
Once you've answered this question, I'd advise for you to continue reading.
First things first, your answer to this question can greatly differ depending on who you're being compared to. I will explain this concept in looksmaxxing terms.
Exemplar Situation:
Although you may be considered 'HTN' in a city like Mumbai where majority of the population is definitively 'ugly', being of that same attractiveness in a region such as a private college in Sweden with a 100% ethnic population will make you less attractive than a higher percentage of people. In this location, you would likely be classified as 'LTN.'
"Okay. LTN this, HTN that. What do these abbreviations mean??"
I understand it may be confusing, so-
Here are some base-level looksmaxxing terms you should understand.
These variables are constant and do not change depending on your location.
Chapter 1: PSL
PSL is the abbreviation for 'Puahate Sluthate Lookism.' This abbreviator is not important to remember and it's rare that you'll hear someone use it.
What you should know, however, is what PSL is.
What is PSL?
PSL is the looks rating in this community classified from 0 - 10. This rating is based on the way others perceive you (the way you look) and only the way you look. PSL does not account for bias / someone's 'type.'
Please note that it's practically impossible to be a true '0' or '10' as this would imply that you (from birth) have absolute perfect/imperfect genetics, and said live a matching perfect/imperfect lifestyle.
You may also be wondering what happens in-between these two numbers. Here's a demonstration.
0 PSL = Theoretical Imperfect Human-Being.
1-3 PSL = Truecel. They are all grouped into this section as they are not cared about enough to receive an in-depth descriptor.
4 PSL = LTN
5 PSL = MTN
6 PSL = HTN
7 PSL = CL
8 PSL = Chad
9 PSL = True Adam
10 PSL = Theoretical Perfect Human-Being.
You again, may still be confused on what these 'LTN' or 'MTN' abbreviations mean. Here's an explanation.
Chapter 1.5: Classifications of PSL
I will order these following terms in order from the worst-looking to the best-looking.
TC = True-Cel. You are not a 'normal' person, and are considered way less than average in your chosen region.
Being a truecel means you fall within the 0th - 3rd percentile of humans. This classification is mainly reserved for those with serious disabilities and/or mutations. You can also fall here if you are just that extremely ugly and/or fat. You are definitively a 'subhuman.'
- From this point forward, I will be abbreviating the term 'in Your Chosen Region' as 'iYCR.' Remember this.
LTN = Low tier Normie. You are a 'normal' person, hence the term 'Normie." However, you are considered lower than average iYCR.
Being LTN means you fall within the 3rd - 50th percentile. You are definitively 'ugly' compared to the average person iYCR.
Here, at the 50th percentile is where the average person resides.
MTN = Mid tier Normie. You are a 'normal' person, and are considered higher than average iYCR.
Being MTN means you fall within the 50th - ~92.5th percentile of humans. You are definitively 'attractive' compared to the average person iYCR.
HTN = High tier Normie. You are a 'normal' person, and are considered 'well off' higher than average iYCR.
Being HTN means you fall within the ~92.5th - ~99.38th percentile of humans. You are definitively very attractive compared to the average person iYCR. Simplified, you are the most attractive person in around 15 people.
CL = Chad-Lite. You are not a 'normal' person, and are considered way more attractive than the average person iYCR.
Being CL means you fall within the ~99.38th - ~99.9995th percentile of humans. Simplified, this would classify you as the most attractive person in around 163 people iYCR.
Chad = Chad (No Abbreviation.) You are not a 'normal' person and are considered hyper attractive- tremendously higher than average iYCR.
Being a Chad means you fall within the 99.9995th - 99.9999999999th percentile of humans. Simplified, this would classify you as the most attractive person in 50,000 people iYCR. Majority of the humans classified here are models.
TA = True Adam. You are most definitely not a 'normal' person and are considered one of- if not the most attractive human dead or alive. The only possible 'region' where you could be a 'True Adam' is the entire globe.
Being a True Adam means you fall within the 99.9999999999th - 100th percentile of humans. Simplified, this classifies you as the most attractive person in a billion. Being that there are eight billion humans alive right now with half being men, statistically there are only four humans alive under this classification.
Being 'True Adam' still classifies you as a Chad, however. Think of this as a sub-classification.
Here's an easy-to-read bar chart I found that can help you visualize this concept. Reminder this data is constant and will not change, no matter your location.
As you can see, (or can't), to be CL or higher is truly a sliver of our population.
Bonus Abbreviations you may want to know:
IQcel = Your a dumbass
Foid = A female (Usually of Low Value)
This entire thread is dedicated to males and males only. If you are a foid I recommend for you to leave.
Chapter 2. Why?
Now- you may be asking, why are these people as attractive as they are? What makes attraction?
There are many reasons, actually.
The most dominant contributor by far to this quota is your face - Classified as anything above your neck- (incl. hair)
To get into why your face is attractive/ugly is a whole other post. That topic is too extensive to be written here.
Listed below are some other important contributors.
Your height.
Your age.
Your build- (muscle mass.)
Your body fat %
Your bi-deltoid width.
The circumference of your waist.
Your skin tone/complexion.
A.K.A Anything about a human that is unique to you. Again, these are the most important.
Some less-important ideologies may include your hands, feet, wingspan, and your torso-leg ratio.
There are many more, however I am not here to list them all.
Chapter 3. Who?
Who should you compare yourself to? And why these people?
Here are the factors you should take into play before truly rating yourself.
Your age. I'd recommend to only compare yourself to people of your age and those within a (1-3) year age gap of you. If you are below eighteen, please keep that number at zero or one. Not doing this will likely make you have unrealistic standards for yourself.
As I've said, many times, your region of choice. Comparing yourself to the average-looking person in Delhi won't benefit you if you live in Canada.
Don't compare yourself to anyone of the opposite gender. This should be self-explanatory.
Chapter 4. Are you more attractive than the average person?
With your newfound intelligence, you'll need to ask yourself this question again.
Are you more attractive than the average person?
Maybe you believe you only are in your school- or maybe you only think this way about your city flat.
Maybe you think your more attractive than the average person everywhere.
Either way, the way you perceive yourself likely isn't the way others see you.
I am also not here to rate you, do not ask for one in the replies.
To achieve an accurate, unbiased, rating open the link I've provided here , press the 'Post Thread' button and insert whatever you desire.
[I recommend for you to include your age and height into the post title or description]
Once you get rated, I recommend you to return here. Whether or not you want to get rated, I recommend for you to read this regardless.
The looksmaxxers in your comment section will more than likely rate you with a four-letter abbreviation rather than what your used to being a 2-3 letter combo, (ex. LMTN rather than just MTN.)
The 'L' or 'H' in front of these represent sub-tiers.
Someone rating you LLTN means they believe you are a Lower LTN. (Closer towards Truecel)
Someone rating you MLTN or LTN means they believe you are a True LTN.
Someone rating you HLTN means they believe you are a Higher LTN. (Closer towards MTN)
Someone rating you LMTN means they believe you are a Lower MTN. (Closer towards LTN)
Someone rating you MMTN or MTN means they believe you are a True MTN.
Someone rating you HMTN means they believe you are a Higher MTN. (Closer towards HTN)
Someone rating you LHTN means they believe you are a Lower HTN. (Closer towards MTN)
Someone rating you MHTN or HTN means they believe you are a True HTN.
Someone rating you HHTN means they believe you are a Higher HTN. (Closer towards Chadlite)
If some comments "It's Over," I'm sorry.
Note there is no guarantee someone will rate you.
Footnotes:
1. I have spent around a week making this thread. It is extensive for a reason.
2. Do not argue with me about how many humans are on this planet. If this number is theoretically (significantly) more or less, it will not change any of this data.
TLDR; - Go fuck yourself
If you did read, thank you for your time.
