'''Regression toward the mean''' simply means that, following an extreme random event, the next random event is likely to be less extreme. Regression toward the mean was first described by Francis Galton. Galton found that offspring of tall parents were still tall but shorter, than what common sense would suggest. Basically couples that are giants tend to reproduce slightly smaller giants. Also, offspring of shorter parents were still short but also taller, than what common sense would suggest. Basically midget couples tend to reproduce slightly taller midgets. Galton stated that processes that did not follow regression towards the mean would quickly go out of control. https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_toward_the_mean | '''Regression toward the mean''' simply means that, following an extreme random event, the next random event is likely to be less extreme.

Regression toward the mean, [[recessive genes]], and [[atavisms]] are all contributing factors to the worldwide epidemic of male inceldom. Since the overwhelming majority, perhaps even all women are attracted to physical and mental traits that [[Gigachad|deviate extremely from average,]] any regression to an obsolete or more "avg" trend is detrimental. The rare incel that [[Deincelization|ascends]] must then overcome regression toward the mean, to ensure any male offspring don't experience inceldom. | Regression toward the mean, [[recessive genes]], [[genetic mutations]] and [[atavisms]] are all contributing factors to the worldwide epidemic of male inceldom.
