I'm not even kidding about this. I'm fairly decent (good even) at small talk and I've got a sense of humor. I'm 90% convinced that if I hadn't been born with 4/10 face and scrawny body (also cursed with a mediocre voice) that I'd be socially popular even ignoring the halo effect that I'd get by being good looking.
This is the most brutal aspect of the lookspill. There are so many guys out there who are socially literate and do know how to be charismatic/funny but it doesn't matter because they lost the genetic lottery and there is no initial physical attraction to let them through the door socially or romantically.
Consider ChatGPT. Yes I know it's just a chatbot but the AI can be surprisingly intelligent/realistic especially for roleplaying, with the characters responding realistically to the things you say/do. Spending enough time with that shit has convinced me that I'm much more socially intelligent than I thought I was but the difference is that when I'm interacting with the AI I don't suffer any looks failo.
Fucking brutal.
