Game: Difference between revisions

Most lookism theorists and [[blackpill|blackpillers]] believe game is mostly determined by one's looks, and can hardly be improved for most incels. I.e. they believe good looking people are allowed to express themselves more than ugly people, and hence develop a more compelling demeanor. Ugly men who engage in game are believed to be perceived as ''[[creep]]y''. Indeed, multiple studies indicate that out of diverse measures of physical and personality traits, including extroversion, only physical attractiveness predicts initial romantic interest and strongly so, meaning game is probably largely ineffective in short-term dating settings like blind or online dating.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Looks_are_most_important_to_women_in_blind_dating</ref> However, game may be useful in other mating settings but one-to-one dating, as it amounts to criteria important for social status. Someone who is smooth, eloquent and witty will be more popular, i.e will achieve higher [[dominance hierarchy|social status]] and hence get access to reproductive opportunities. Game can presumably be used whenever there is a tie between two men in terms of looks as "icing on the cake".
