Crazy this was considered HTN in 2022 (Pre TikTok Wave)

[AscendBender]

Niggas in 2022 really considered the photo on the right HTN. And tbh if you go outside enough, you'd realize this guy is slightly above average, which is what HTN is supposed to be.

But if he came out with this thread now, he would be rated sub 5 and crucified for even thinking he had any concept of an ascension.

People have become extremely critical of male looks recently, and I couldn't tell you if it's a good or bad thing, but it seems to be directly proportional to male loneliness, unhappiness, and a growing desire to vastly improve looks (to be loved of course).

Interesting how mental collectives can shift so vastly in a short period of time.

Wonder what you fucks think of this.

That guy is so unbelievably mid.

The average isn't MTN, the average is LTN. That guy is definitely supposed to be rated a MTN.

How can LTN be average when attactiveness is a normal distribution? That isn't mathematically possible and I don't know where that come from.

Ask women to rate men out of 10. You'll notice that most men will be rated less than 5/10, and the average of the actual distribution is not 5/10. To be considered average by them you actually have to be above average.

Most women will actually bump scores to soften their response, but yes most women find most men unnatractive. But regardless of that, overall attractiveness (not women's perspective) is still a bell curve, it makes more sense to rate from that perspective.

The use of the term normie also implies a general rating, not one skewed toward female bias

inflation, but I don't think it's even bad. Now without the incel crap and a focus on modeling

I've been in this community since 2017, r/incels, r/braincels, .is and made my account on here later. And i can confidently say OP is right.

There were attractive people online obviously, but what was considered "chad" then would be laughed at and called hmtn now. 100%. Even on tinder lesser chadfishes that existed back then were uglier guys in comparison to what yall use now. and they got just as many matches.

I'd say the blame is on the pandemic and the rise of tiktok which uses a beauty based algo to determine wether or not you show up on peoples feeds. with the rise of this shithole spreading all of its looksmaxxing. you get a more looks centric population

Didn't say he was wrong, and being on other forums doesn't make your opinion valid.

Of course looks inflation is real but only between males asking for a rating.
Girls being girls they will stay hypergamous and will always reach for the chads while being ltb.

 

[HeightPilledum]

Even with TikTok inflation that guy is MTN at worst

i disagree. it makes sense that the new generation kids are more attractive / taller than previous ones. even without looksmax becoming popular. a lot of shit pushed by algos / societal shifts put facial attractiveness on the spotlight for men more than ever now. making us consider and working on our looks more

And being on this forum or others for much longer than you. does give me a stronger anecdote since i remember what we thought was "chad" then
