The attractiveness scale is an outdated concept largely based in sexist objectification of women by which one can objectively rank an individual's physical attractiveness based on a 1-10 scale. An Attractiveness Scale takes the shape of a Bell Curve, meaning the vast majority of people are lumped together in the middle range.
The scale can be understood as follows:
1 - 3 UNATTRACTIVE
The bottom 10% of the scale describes those generally considered unattractive people. In particular people with pronounced deformities or a seriously irregular appearance.
4-7 AVERAGE
The vast majority of people (roughly 80%) fall into the average range. Their looks are typical and not exceptional.
8-10 THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE
About 10% are people who are generally agreed to be well above average in looks. These are the people highly sought after for their physical appearance and who are often employed AT THE HIGH END of beauty- focused industries such as fashion modeling, entertainment, and sex work.
On the 1-10 Attractiveness Scale most women think they are "8"s but they are really "5"s. Most men assume they are "5"s no matter where they fall on the scale.
