→Some incels may have a high mutational load

Deleterious mutations appear to also degrade the general quality of the phenotype, so people with a higher mutational load may be less physically attractive on average. | Deleterious mutations appear to also degrade the general quality of the phenotype, so people with a higher mutational load may be less physically attractive on average. | ||
High mutational load is associated with greater fluctuating asymmetry, though the effects of higher levels of this trait on physical attractiveness and overall mating behavior seem mixed, due to poor quality research and differing methods of measuring this trait.<ref>https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/c7f1/ed676ed9d7440fa3c1cad3ebb37589f39d57.pdf</ref> | High mutational load is associated with greater fluctuating asymmetry, though the effects of higher levels of this trait on physical attractiveness and overall mating behavior seem mixed, partly due to poor quality research and differing methods of measuring this trait.<ref>https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/c7f1/ed676ed9d7440fa3c1cad3ebb37589f39d57.pdf</ref> | ||
