Correlations between looks, height, income, masculinity and sex partner count are, however, only weak,<ref>https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-006-9075-x</ref><ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/1474704915604563</ref><ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13504851.2011.587758</ref><ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Across_91_studies.2C_bodily_masculinity_was_predictive_of_men.27s_mating_and_reproductive_success</ref> meaning looks are unlikely to explain most inceldom except, perhaps, for extremely unattractive individuals. | Correlations between looks, height, income, masculinity and sex partner count are, however, only weak,<ref>https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-006-9075-x</ref><ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/1474704915604563</ref><ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13504851.2011.587758</ref><ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Across_91_studies.2C_bodily_masculinity_was_predictive_of_men.27s_mating_and_reproductive_success</ref> meaning looks are unlikely to explain most inceldom except, perhaps, for extremely unattractive individuals. | ||
Still, looks likely make life easier and open doors. Correlations regarding looks and ''copulation opportunities'' are much higher than for partner counts. E.g. on OkCupid, rated attractiveness and incoming messages were correlated at around r = .5 (see graph on the right). | Still, looks likely make life easier and open doors. Correlations regarding looks and ''copulation opportunities'' are much higher than for partner counts. E.g. on OkCupid, rated attractiveness and incoming messages were correlated at around r = .5 (see graph on the right). The same effect can be found with regards to social status, where the correlations with copulation opportunities are strong, but weak for partner counts.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Men.27s_social_status_accounts_for_62.25_of_the_variance_of_copulation_opportunities</ref> | ||
It should also be noted that men are seemingly bad at accurately judging the own looks.<ref>http://doi.org/10.2307/3033724</ref><ref>https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/sjop.12631</ref> [[Demographics of inceldom]] suggest that there is a trend toward less sex for both men and women have less sex, which is accompanied by a trend towards later marriage, i.e. less strictly enforced monogamy. | It should also be noted that men are seemingly bad at accurately judging the own looks.<ref>http://doi.org/10.2307/3033724</ref><ref>https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/sjop.12631</ref> [[Demographics of inceldom]] suggest that there is a trend toward less sex for both men and women have less sex, which is accompanied by a trend towards later marriage, i.e. less strictly enforced monogamy. |
