To all greys and anonymous lurkers know this

PSL = dark triad
Appeal = light triad

This is peak newgen brainrot.


PSL is not “dark triad.”
Appeal is not “light triad.”
You’re mixing psychology buzzwords with looksmax slang and hoping nobody notices.


Let’s fix this properly.


PSL (Physical Sexual/Looks Level) = static, visual traits only.
Bone structure, facial harmony, ratios, height, frame, skin quality.
It’s how attractive you are in a vacuum, judged from photos, lighting, and genetics.
No personality. No behavior. No “aura.” Just looks.


Appeal = how attractive you are in real life.
That includes PSL plus voice, confidence, body language, status signaling, social calibration, charisma, grooming, and yes—personality traits. Appeal is dynamic, contextual, and situational.


Now here’s where you completely fell apart:


The Dark Triad / Light Triad are personality frameworks, not attractiveness metrics.

• Dark triad: narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy
• Light triad: humanism, empathy, Kantianism

They describe behavioral tendencies, not facial attractiveness or sexual market value.


A high-PSL guy can be:

• socially awkward
• boring
• anxious
• morally good or bad

A low-PSL guy can still have high appeal through:

• confidence
• humor
• dominance
• status
• social intelligence

None of this maps cleanly onto “dark” or “light” triads. That’s TikTok psych-pop nonsense.


Bottom line:

• PSL = how you look
• Appeal = how you land
• Dark/light triad = how you behave

Trying to collapse all of that into one edgy sentence just tells everyone you learned these terms yesterday.


Lurk more. Post less.

I mean op is an idiot, but still light/dark is not only personality. Look at Vasily stepanov and then rira.

It's a physiological term for personality traits

It's a physiological term for personality traits

Yea but by looking at someone you get an impression whatever they dark thriad or not

I showed my female friend rira (she had no idea who it is) she told me he looks like a psycho

Just realized I said physiological instead of psychological

Direct correlation:

 

[Big Daddy]

literally blatantly obvious that it's the opposite, if you are already gonna classify it that way

holy retard

 

[Big Daddy]

oh, i get it - you found out you have some insignificant ratio in the ideal range, so you are coping with "psl" instead of appeal to rationalize the fact women treat you like you don't exist

It's a triad tho you can't tell all three traits from just looks I see where you are coming from tho
