I vaguely remember evidence posted to reddit that the whole r/truerateme sub was started by 4chan incels to try and lower women's self esteem. Part of the plan was to post photos pretending to be super conventionally attractive women and give them low ratings anyway. IDR how conclusive it was in terms of proof, but it seemed more likely than not to me at the time.

That sub also had a "guide" to their rating system posted. I looked at it once, and the absolute lowest ratings were like burn victims or women with noticeable physical disabilities (which is in itself not a cool sentiment), but they had "example photos" of conventionally attractive female celebrities rated at like a 3. Their whole criteria were either subjective or inscrutable above that: you could randomly shuffle most of the chart and it would make as much sense, even if you bought into their idiotic logic (which again, you should not).

Anyway, attraction is way more subjective than any of these shitstains would have you think and everyone can be someone else's favorite.
