@CTownEnjoyer @DanFriedman81 If a Subway manager stole from a customer, and Subway corporate tried to cover up or refused to engage with it, they would rightfully be implicated. Do you disagree with this?

[Alive Man @AliveMan10]

@CTownEnjoyer @DanFriedman81 This is silly. The only reason you are even having this conversation about which sets were where is because Reckless Ben forced the issue. Otherwise, they would have simply ignored this, which they tried to repeatedly for months. I'm assuming you're Mormon.

@JacobL1994_ I don't think it's useful for men to despair, but I also find the copes about the reality of the dating situation also sort of futile and maybe a little delusional.

[Alive Man @AliveMan10]

@JacobL1994_ Possible but not likely. The overwhelming majority of people meet on dating apps, so you have to be good looking. Unless you meet someone offline, which the data show is an increasingly rare phenomenon.

@JacobL1994_ Comparing past generations' pairing dynamics to now is the equivalent of a boomer telling you he got a job with a firm handshake.

@DblTime11 @fion79076 @waynehhsiung @domdyer70 I think even the most committed vegans sometimes fail to keep their diet fully, what is that meant to prove exactly?

@sw4nlak3s People that get married later in life have lower rates of divorce. Bad advice.

@fm49tspk9f @1Caffinefiend @Aarvoll_ @NickJFuentes The original post is about the future of American politics, not what you do during your free time. Are you implying the purpose of Arvoll's project is actually about having friends and hobbies? That's fine if true, but it seems to be marketed as a political project.

[Alive Man @AliveMan10]

@fm49tspk9f @1Caffinefiend @Aarvoll_ @NickJFuentes Politics is about wielding legal and administrative power within institutions. Playing catch with friends and other hobbies has nothing to do with politics.

@invaderalex It's weird to pretend a huge proportion of people don't waste a serious proportion of their income on fast food like Uber Eats. Sometimes people do in fact consistently make bad decisions and should stop.

[Alive Man @AliveMan10]

@sanjehorah Retarded reasoning. Your example, the Bezos Sanchez coupling, is a spectacle precisely because he’s with a woman that upper class men do not find desirable.

@jakozloski @DanMill77229771 They didn't have access to all the men in an entire city through an app, or even entire country if you account for social media.

Social media seriously intensified most elements of human nature. Dating was the only thing exempt in your view?

@_mrmisanthrope_ @BambuluMen lmao why are you so mad

@exastrissci @elizabethbelsky Aura and charisma, which is a proxy for personality, is related to how physically attractive someone is.

There's just not really any real argument against looksmaxxers aside from the fact that obsessing over it is pointless.

[Rolf Degen @DegenRolf]

The 'beautiful is good' stereotype, also known as the 'attractiveness halo effect', works both ways: Unattractive people are also assumed to have undesirable personality traits.
People often assume that attractive individuals also have other positive qualities, such as being more sociable, intelligent, or emotionally stable. This is called the “beautiful is good” stereotype or “attractiveness halo effect”. The researchers wanted to find out whether the opposite is also  true: are women seen more negatively when they are judged to be unattractive?
To explore this, the study used facial photographs of 154 German women and 149 Brazilian women. A group of 168 women from Germany rated each face for attractiveness and also judged how socially competent, intellectually competent, and emotionally stable each person seemed. They also rated the opposite negative traits (social incompetence, intellectual incompetence, and emotional instability).
Overall, the study shows that first impressions based on looks can work in both directions: attractiveness can lead to more favourable assumptions, while unattractiveness can lead to equally strong or even stronger  negative assumptions. We present only limited support for the claim that attractiveness halo effects may be driven more by “ugly is bad” than by “beautiful is good” perception.
These findings provide a systematic comparison of positive and negative halo effects, revealing that negative biases for unattractive individuals can be at least as pronounced as positive biases for attractive individuals. These effects also mostly generalize across German and Brazilian faces, extending evidence on halo effects beyond single‑population samples.
While not significantly different from attractiveness halo effects, the negative halo effects in our correlational analyses were still moderate to strong, with important implications for person perception and social interactions. In social interactions, for example, it can have harmful effects on the treatment of unattractive individuals if negative stereotypes determine behaviour towards them.
It has already been shown that unattractive individuals are subject to prejudices and discrimination in domains like social hierarchies, education, employment, or even medical diagnoses Our findings extend these suggestions by showing that less attractive individuals are ascribed stronger degrees of social and intellectual incompetence and emotional instability.

@TaryJane @elizabethbelsky You don't understand what status is referring to in this context. By your definition, a fat slob has status because his status in society is that of a fat slob lol.

[Alive Man @AliveMan10]

@moltisantits @elizabethbelsky There's a limiting principle: the point at which you would stop finding a trait or combination of traits attractive because they're too extreme and result in a lack of facial harmony/balance. Identifying and measuring that balance is autistic, but it doesn't make it incorrect.

@elddyrkn1 @MorganPCALLB @Landeur Her claim just kind of falls apart considering male virginity is at an all time high (1/3 of men are virgins around that age cohort) and alcohol consumption is at an all time low for Gen Z

[Alive Man @AliveMan10]

@Landeur That doesn't hold up at all. Unless your claim is that women have become significantly more interested in older men in the past decades such that it's skewed the data so much, which there is no evidence for.
