If everyone would be attractive, would anyone be attractive?

[eliott]

I heard someone say that it would, it would be the inflation of looks. But in my opinion looks are not money, and even if we are surrounded by ugly people from birth we would still notice that they are ugly. Thats why in the situation everyone would just be attractive and thats it, your thoughts on this? Is attractiveness perception predetermined from birth or is it something that is gained from society? That thought came out of my discussion with a friend about the possibility of making everyone attractive, so nobody would have to suffer, whereas it would be supper efficient machinery plastic surgery for everyone in the childhood or only allowing good looking and intelligent people to have kids. Currently in this world you can live normally only if you are good looking, if you are not its over just go euthanise yourself.

There would still be incels and it wouldn't necessarily have to do with money.

Even if you dragged everyone to the same barber and surgeon, you're just shifting the mean, not deleting the bell curve. Looks, like height or IQ, are relative – genetics and hormones set hard limits. Women don't judge in absolutes, they rank. Hypergamy always sorts you into deciles, so there will still be a bottom 20% and a top 10%. Raising the floor with surgery and grooming just makes the struggle more competitive. Money doesn't buy bone structure.

If there would be incels, that would probalbly be because they suck as a person. I think that we should be equal from birth, because right now your life is 90% genetics

Define "sucking as a person".

Im not talking about todays world, it is a hypothetical, where everybody would have different features but still be equally attractive, so there would not be any percentages, because everyone would be exactly equal, so if women still ranked you, it would be because of you and not the genetic factors. That would be fair. In real life we cannot have perfection but we can be extremely close to it, it would require some breakthrough invention though.

Oh my god. Its so funny how people just assume something is ai just because of the em dash

 

[Lamskiiii]

yes but no one would be uniquely attractive

 

[eliott]

They would be incels because they have a bad personality, not genetic predetermined factors. Thats kinda skill issue and that would be fair

 

[eliott]

Fair point, i wish there were a lot less people on earth, because the whole idea of there always being a person better than you at something is fucked up. Like no, if there is like 100 people or the people are distributed on earth/galaxy then you could actually be the best at something, also not because of your genetic predisposition, but because of hard work. 8 billions is too much

Do you guys have any possible solution to the loookism like mines but more realistic ones?

 

[GonorrhoeaGobbler]

I think a huge contributor of how happy is the country is the looks of the country( also money), for example nordic countries
