PSL vs Appeal copes Eviscerated



For the past year or so, people have been constantly debating whether one can have high PSL, but low appeal and vice versa; if PSL & appeal are connected - or are completely separate from each other, and a lot of similar subjects. In this thread, we will dive deep into this topic, with the goal of covering as many questions, that can emerge in this debate, as possible.


First and foremost - we need to understand what exactly either of those terms mean. This may seem like water for 90% of users, but I would still insist you read through all of this, just to help you see the full picture later on.


The PSL Scale (or in this context, any other such established scale) is a measure of standalone FACIAL ATTRACTIVENESS.
It is calculated using a scoring system, which assesses four aspects: facial harmony; facial dimorphism; leanness/angularity and miscellaneous (skin/coloring/some features/etc.). The ideal ranges for all quantifiable measurements are derived from
peer-reviewed research papers & commonly agreed-upon, unbiased, vast sample clusters - in order to reach the highest extent of objectivity, whilst retaining lowest amounts of human error.


Classic examples of low vs. high PSL:

Appeal (to a certain group of people in this context) is created through adapting to an archetype & style/niche, which relates to a corresponding group/subgroup/niche/etc.

Examples of men appealing to young + alt vs. mature + normie foids:

Something looks off, doesn’t it?
When people debate this (usually in tiktok comments :feelswhy:), they basically put facial ratings against relatability to a certain group, which is inherently incorrect either way. So here is one more important definition for you:


SMV (sex market value) is a metric used to predict one’s frequency/quality of slaying (or to be precise, unconditional female attention in general). It consists of one’s height, frame, build, appeal breadth, status, and most importantly, you guessed it - PSL.


Classic example of low vs. high SMV:

A more valid debate would be “PSL vs SMV”. Yet still, if PSL is a component of SMV, then it would make absolutely 0 sense to put them against each other, as one is but a part of the other.


So here is my main point: There is
no such thing as “muh high PSL low appeal (SMV)”. Since PSL makes up a massive chunk of SMV regardless, your score would be relatively high whether you had everything else, or not (only with the exception extremes, such as syndromic height, etc., of course). However, you CAN have relatively low PSL with relatively high SMV, if you possess other characteristics, which contribute to SMV.


Examples of lower PSL, but with other boosts vs. higher PSL on its own:
View attachment 3776376 vs. View attachment 3776453

On the left, we have Horsemeet, and on the right - Zayn Malik.
Horsemeet is around high MTN facially, but is around
6'1, has a good frame, physique & niche.
Malik, on the other hand, is 58, with an average frame, physique & has a niche that is mainly directed at pop rock fans. However, in his prime, he was at the very least high CL, and some people would still call that an underrate, which I wouldn’t blame them for.
One could argue, that their status is completely different, but to be honest, they are both big enough to have a similar fame score in their niche, as it can only get so high.


This brings me to another point: PSL is still law in terms of Looksmaxing. I’ve heard people cope with “muh models like De Poot do have high PSL, but I don’t see foids thirsting after them; I could see Marlon slay infinitely more than him, even though he has lower PSL!”.
This, buddy boyo, is a good example of what I’ve mentioned before.
De Poot is a model. Models do weird shit. He usually wears weird shit, is skinny as shit, etc.; Yet still, it will take him infinitely less effort to
surpass Marlon in SMV, than for Marlon to surpass De Poot in PSL. If they both had exactly the same height, frame, physique & everything else, except for face - De Poot would still SMV mog, obviously.


Fellas, it’s not 2023 anymore. Please get a grip. People like Bass or Zeta do indeed have high “appeal”.

Thank you for reading my thread boyos. Love

Read every molecule, but I have to say idc what anyone says De Poot's eyes make him look like he has gook admixture, and not in a peak HAPA way like Alex Schlab. Him maxxing out his physique would never change that.

I somewhat agree, I would say that SMV and PSL aren't that closely related 100% like I completely agree that most of the time if someone who is objectively high PSL like the de poot example if he was to grow his hair out and had the same height and frame as marlon he'd mog him all else equal that could be possible with lots of "High psl low appeal" guys but I also think that people who are low PSL but has certain features and/or good harmony would still mog a good deal of them SMV wise aswell because I do think the psl chart is bias to certain features and things that just aren't tailored towards the female gaze that you can't change and doesn't take into account harmony, that's why this whole thing is even brought it. It blows people minds here that someone recessed like micheal b jordan for example or some cutecel tiktok prettyboy can mog and get so much female attention (I've seen "MTNs" get millions of likes) but they just have the features and harmony that just works better in the real world - so I'd say it isn't really good to group terms like PSL and SMV like law but if someone is high PSL most of the time they'd probably have appeal if they tried but can't because agencies, styles etc etc but every female is different as well and will have different types so yeah in the real world stuff is different but I agree mostly with the thread

people get way too confused with this terminology ngl. as i said in the thread, psl does involve harmony, which is the largest component of it, actually. there is no inherent bias; i can agree that currently, some assessments are weighed incorrectly, but it mostly is good. the whole point of psl is to scientifically measure attractiveness based on face alone, hence my point that with high psl alone, you would instantly have very decent smv. people like de poot purposefully descend their smv, despite the high psl for things such as modeling. i can barely think of someone else with such “issues” though.

hmm harmony and "scientifically measure attractiveness based on face" doesn't seem right to me, I don't think its possible to measure harmony like some try to do and with that I don't think harmony can be included in any scale since u can't really rate or quantify harmony. Like there's some people with subpar optimal measures or certain "failos" that go's so well with the face that it turns into a halo and vice versa, when you see harmony its more like a feeling but you can't really explain it there's some stuff but it's mostly just down to genetics. there's some other things I disagree with but they aren't really relevant I think we mostly agree, I guess my point would be if you're high PSL then you're most likely good looking and can have appeal if you tried but if you aren't high PSL but not sub5 and have certain features and/or good harmony you could have an insane level of SMV even if by a PSL scale you wouldnt really scale that high - I've seen this happen many many times where a "MTN" or "HTN" would have 100s of thousands or millions of likes and attention just based off they're face so it depends at lower levels imo but yeah highly attractive PSL ppl wouldn't have trouble if it came down to it

nonono bhai
harmony is the most quantifiable and objective masurement ever, actually
harmony is made up of facial ratios, all of which have scientifically-established ideals, as well as assessment methods.
and my point was that a high psl guy ALREADY has good smv without anything else, whereas lower psl guys need a lot of other stuff to compensate for their lack of said psl.
also, the reason why you see mtn cutecels getting so much glaze is cause theyre either glazed by only foids of their age or younger, they have the same, relatively small niche, or because they just havent seen better

ratios made by who and scientific by what degree? also you said that they need other stuff to compensate but what would it be besides hair (which I'd say is important for harmony for everyone) when its usually based off face? also I can't buy the last thing when you have tiktok and can see the most attractive people all the time and it could be niche for certain people but some even come out that niche and spread so that depends. for harmony though what @Seth Walsh said about it is generally what I agree most with

"Ratios yes but that explains only a small part. ES ratio is extremely important for harmony, along with the philtrum to lower lip subunit + chin ratio.

But 90%+ of harmony is completely unexplainable. It's very subjective. Like when you see someone with good harmony, you just know it. There's some sort of data phenotypically locked into the face. That's why there's a joke about extrapolating backward. The "explain Chico's harmony" thing.

I think general health indicators and indicators of high class, through the face, make up a small bit of the explanation. But it can't really be put objectively. I made a really good post about all the ratios that are involved in good harmony about a year ago. The 0.45-0.47 ES ratio, equal facial fifths and thirds, longer than normal PFL while maintaining equal thirds. Stuff like that. But anything beyond that is just PSL rubbish.

Harmony really can't be explained." also not trying to debate or anything, I just want to know and see for myself :Comfy:

things you named there are all ratios. and there are way more of them than that, for each part of the face. health indicators are part of misc, and are usually assessed within a boolean system, very linearly (e.g. infraorbital vector: negative/slightly positive/positive)

i explained how ideals are found in the thread.

let me define facial harmony for you:

facial harmony is the measure of relationships of spatial arrangement of different anatomical landmarks on one’s face.

or in simple terms - ratios. ratios make up your entire face; everything else matters, but is superficial.

if anything, harmony is THE most objective thing in attractiveness assessment.

and dont worry man, debate is always good, it contributes to not only ours - but others understanding of topics, as it shows chains of reasoning behind each point.

i hope that makes sense to you.
