'''Why women are seen as less shallow''' | |||
The misconception that women would not care about looks may stem from political correctness as the Norwegian sexologist [[Kristin Spitznogle]] suggested. It may also stem from the ''[[women-are-wonderful effect]]''<ref name="ref92">https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1111/j.1471-6402.1991.tb00792.x</ref> in that people are less likely to ascribe negative attributes such as shallowness to women. It may also result from the fact that [[Scientific Blackpill#|men prefer young and fertile women]] and youth is associated with beauty. | The misconception that women would not care about looks may stem from political correctness as the Norwegian sexologist [[Kristin Spitznogle]] suggested.

[[Feminism|Feminists]] may construe women's excessive [[intrasexual competition]] in looks as imposed by the patriarchy as a result of men strongly caring about looks, when in truth both men and women care about looks,<ref name="ref8020">https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Women_rate_80.25_of_men_as_.22below_average.22.2C_while_men_rate_women_on_a_bell_curve</ref> but women have an extra incentive to conspicuously advertise themselves in order to attract high status men, having a more [[sex drive#Female_passivity|passive sexuality]] all around. This may also explain women's harsher ratings resulting from an intuition to avoid initiating romance and giving men complements.<ref name="ref8020"></ref> Initiation would make it more difficult to reject a male as the initiator bears more responsibility. | [[Feminism|Feminists]] may construe women's excessive [[intrasexual competition]] in looks as imposed by the patriarchy as a result of men strongly caring about looks, when in truth both men and women care about looks,<ref name="ref8020">https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Women_rate_80.25_of_men_as_.22below_average.22.2C_while_men_rate_women_on_a_bell_curve</ref> but women have an extra incentive to conspicuously advertise themselves in order to attract high status men, having a more [[sex drive#Female_passivity|passive sexuality]] all around.

'''It may not be ''all'' about looks''' | |||
That being said about the importance of looks, there exists some anecdotal evidence that many incels are not particularly ugly, with some even being physically attractive. There may be a selection bias here insofar as only the better looking incels are expected to expose themself to public scrutiny by posting images of themselves on the internet.<ref name="ref159">https://incels.wiki/w/Demographics_of_inceldom#Germany</ref> Looks do not seem to matter as much as many incels claim (e.g. unattractiveness only lowers the chances of marriage for ugly men by 15%), but they do matter to some extent and good looks make life easier and open doors. | That being said about the importance of looks, there exists some anecdotal evidence that many incels are not particularly ugly, with some even being physically attractive.
