Let’s be honest. "Social skills" are just a set of behaviors that are only allowed to work if you already pass the looks threshold.


If a Chad is quiet, he’s "mysterious" and "stoic." If a sub-5 is quiet, he’s "creepy" or "autistic". The behavior is identical, but the social reception is 180° different because of the Halo Effect.

We’re told to "just be confident," but confidence is a byproduct of positive reinforcement from your environment. You can't manifest confidence in a vacuum where every social interaction is a net-negative because of your bone structure.
