Here’s the visual representation of both surveys on a 1–7 scale [4 = THE MIDDLE]:
We can see that for racism, the votes peak around the middle levels, while for misogyny, there is a noticeable skew toward the higher middle levels.

Racism Survey
None: I do not harbor any antagonism or any (or negligible) negative views toward any race, ethnicity, nationality. I can be civil, cooperate, befriend, not feel aversed by them solely based on these terms (doesn’t account for character)
Low: I harbor low antagonism/negative views toward any race, ethnicity, nationality, and that antagonism or negative view is not something that is minor so it doesn’t really affect my perception of them that much. I don’t really mind them at all. I can be civil, cooperate, befriend, not feel aversed by them solely based on these terms (doesn’t account for character)
Lower middle: hybrid of the one below and above
Middle: I do harbor some antagonism or negative views, and I am aware of them but I solely act on them when a member of that group validates the negative stereotypes, otherwise I don’t really mind. I can cooperate, befriend, be civil and not be aversed by them as long as they are not an exemplar of their negative stereotype.
Higher middle: hybrid between the ones below and above
High: I do harbor a good amount of antagonism or negative views and they taint my perception and I struggle to cooperate or not be emotionally disoriented around them. Only unless they’re above average could I befriend or cooperate with them. I try to remain civil but sometimes my negative perceptions can get in the way.
Total: Hate them all, totally unforgiving. They’re all bad, there’s a 0% possibility of decent/good ones.
Misogyny Survey

Survey Analysis Report: Racism and Misogyny (1–7 scale)
Prepared for: Internal survey analysis

1. Introduction
This report summarizes two surveys conducted on Looksmax.org assessing self-reported levels of racism and misogyny. Both surveys use a 1–7 scale:
How misogynistic are you?
Misogyny: Hate for women. Graded by: intensity and scope of dislike Lower = less dislike, more specific “I don’t really hate women but I kind of dislike it when __” Higher = more dislike, more general “I hate all women”
How racist are you? (Please be civil)
Grade by: intensity and scope of dislike. PLEASE STAY CIVIL. None: I do not harbor any antagonism or any (or negligible) negative views toward any race, ethnicity, nationality. I can be civil, cooperate, befriend, not feel aversed by them solely based on these terms (doesn’t account for...
- 1 = None/Zero
- 7 = Total/High
2. Survey Methodology
Racism Survey
- Total voters: 76
- Numeric scale: 1–7
None: I do not harbor any antagonism or any (or negligible) negative views toward any race, ethnicity, nationality. I can be civil, cooperate, befriend, not feel aversed by them solely based on these terms (doesn’t account for character)
Low: I harbor low antagonism/negative views toward any race, ethnicity, nationality, and that antagonism or negative view is not something that is minor so it doesn’t really affect my perception of them that much. I don’t really mind them at all. I can be civil, cooperate, befriend, not feel aversed by them solely based on these terms (doesn’t account for character)
Lower middle: hybrid of the one below and above
Middle: I do harbor some antagonism or negative views, and I am aware of them but I solely act on them when a member of that group validates the negative stereotypes, otherwise I don’t really mind. I can cooperate, befriend, be civil and not be aversed by them as long as they are not an exemplar of their negative stereotype.
Higher middle: hybrid between the ones below and above
High: I do harbor a good amount of antagonism or negative views and they taint my perception and I struggle to cooperate or not be emotionally disoriented around them. Only unless they’re above average could I befriend or cooperate with them. I try to remain civil but sometimes my negative perceptions can get in the way.
Total: Hate them all, totally unforgiving. They’re all bad, there’s a 0% possibility of decent/good ones.
Misogyny Survey
- Total voters: 48
- Numeric scale: 1–7
... same logic as above, but applied to women
Definitions:
- Racism: Intensity and scope of negative views toward any race, ethnicity, or nationality.
- Misogyny: Intensity and scope of negative views toward women.

4. Observations
- Racism: Most users cluster around middle levels, the distribution is skewed slightly toward the lower levels.
- Misogyny: Distribution skewed toward the higher levels; peak at Upper Middle.
- Spread (SD) is similar for both (~1.90), indicating comparable variability.
| Survey | Below Mean | At Mean | Above Mean | Total Votes | % Below | % At | % Above |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Racism | 33 | 14 | 29 | 76 | 43.4% | 18.4% | 38.2% |
| Misogyny | 20 | 5 | 23 | 48 | 41.7% | 10.4% | 47.9% |
5. Average User Profile
Racism (mean ≈ 3.91 → Middle)- Likely civil toward other races, ethnicities and nationalities, cooperates and befriends most people.
- Negative perceptions may appear only when encountering negative stereotypical behavior.
- Moderate antagonism toward most women exists (based on the mean).
- Civility is generally maintained, but bias is more pronounced than racial/ethnic/national bias.
