looksmaxxing or nichemaxxing?

[Gan]

I'm not sure what I think the best option is.

if you're not sure of the difference, looksmaxxing is increasing your objective appearance to everyone while nichemaxxing is increasing your subjective appearance to certain people.



so if you're a 5 and you looksmaxxed you'd be a 6 to everyone. but it you nichemaxxed you'd be a 7 to some women. a 6 to some. and a 4 or a 5 to others.


nichemaxxing involves focusing on your phenotype or just getting into an aesthetic like long hair, or make up. and yes some girls really fucking like make up on dudes. i once put eyeliner for Halloween and it was genuinely the only time i got approached by women.

so if you had the choice,what would you choose to do?

Why not both?

You should first decide what type of women you want to attract. I like mentally-ill women as I am one myself, I relate to them better than NT women so I try to incorporate some alt elements into my style but I don't want to look too much of a freak so just enough to differentiate myself from the crowd.

Another reason why I don't fully embrace the alt look is because I'm still open on dating NT women I don't want to scare them off completely
