What are PSL RATINGS? PSL ratings were created as a way of being able to determine ones aesthetic value and applying beauty standards to a rating system, based on solely their face. The central idea behind PSL ratings is not purely finding ones SMV/appeal, but it can be better described as...
| Tier | Description | PSL Rating (out of 8) | 1-10 Equivalent | Examples of Traits/Real-World Equivalents | Approximate Percentile |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sub3 (Extreme Subhuman) | Severely unattractive with major deformities or flaws evoking revulsion; significant life impacts. | 1-2 (varies; bottom end) | 1-3 | Extreme asymmetries, poor structure (e.g., anonymized severe cases; no common celebs). | Bottom 0.5-1% |
| Sub5 (Subhuman) | Noticeably unattractive with multiple failing features; social exclusion is common. | 2-4 (varies; <4 often lumped here) | 3-4 | Recessed features, disharmony (e.g., Danny DeVito or forum examples like "Blackops2cel"). | Bottom 10-20% |
| LTN (Low Tier Normie) | Below average with flaws; unappealing but not repulsive; dating struggles without compensators. | 4-4.5 (varies; low end of normie) | 4-5 | Soft features, minor issues (e.g., Steve Buscemi, Michael Cera in prime). | Lower 20-40% |
| MTN (Mid Tier Normie) | Solidly average; balanced but unremarkable; attracts with effort. | 4.5-5.5 (varies; core average) | 5-6 | Typical everyday face (e.g., average office worker). | Middle 40-60% |
| HTN (High Tier Normie) | Above average with good features; stands out casually. | 5.5-6.5 (varies; upper normie) | 6-7 | Sharp symmetry (e.g., Jake Gyllenhaal, Timothée Chalamet). | Top 15-20% |
| Chadlite | Very attractive with strong traits but minor flaws; modeling is viable. | 6.5-7 (varies; entry to elite) | 7-8 | High harmony (e.g., Zac Efron, Ryan Gosling). | Top 1-5% |
| Chad | Elite with near-perfect appeal; effortless halo effect. | 7-7.5 (varies; high elite) | 8-9 | Exceptional structure (e.g., prime Brad Pitt, Henry Cavill). | Top 0.1-1% |
| Gigachad | Mythical perfection; flawless and idealized. | 7.5-8 (varies; cap at 8) | 9-10 | God-tier (e.g., Gigachad meme, Hernan Drago). | Top 0.01% or less |
