A Pretty Boy is a facially-aesthetic, somewhat feminine, androgynous or [[neoteny|neotenous]] version of a man who is an "8" or above on the [[Decile Chart]]. Pretty Boys lack the warrior skull shape, excessive testosterone levels, and excessive human growth hormone levels required to be [[Chad]] or [[Gigachad]]. The term is a near-synonym of the word "[[Chadlite]]." However, the [[SMV]] of the Pretty Boy has a slightly higher derivation from his facial aesthetics than the typical Chadlite. | A Pretty Boy is a facially-aesthetic, somewhat feminine, androgynous or [[neoteny|neotenous]] version of a man who is an "8" or above on the [[Decile Chart]].

A Pretty Boy is a male who possesses the angel skull of a female, and his sex hormones appear to be in balance. His face looks beautiful and highly aesthetic, while at the same time, he is masculine enough to be clearly distinguished as a male. He is usually tall, slender with almost no fat and little to no muscle, and little body or facial hair. The male model, [[Francisco Lachowski|Francisco Lachowski]], is the archetypal pretty boy. | A Pretty Boy is a male who possesses the angel skull of a female, and his sex hormones appear to be in balance.

A study on the inheritance of parental facial attractiveness and their adult children's facial attractiveness, at the collegiate age, shows about 70% of daughter's facial attractiveness is inherited from the parent's genes with the father's genes playing a slightly larger role in the daughter's facial attractiveness compared to the mother's genes. With the rest of the variance being epigenetic in nature (diet regimens, stress, nutrition status, toxin exposure levels, pharmacological medications, grooming etc.) In contrast about 10% of son's facial attractiveness is inherited from the parent's genes with the mother's genes playing the majority role in the son's facial attractiveness compared to the father's genes, with the rest of the variance being epigenetic.<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0003347208003928</ref> A follow up meta-analysis of attractiveness heritability, this time among twins, shows that the attractiveness level between identical, same sex, twin siblings when acne, grooming, smiling and BMI are not controlled for is mostly genetic and when those factors are controlled for, the difference in attractiveness levels are still mostly genetic for | A study on the inheritance of parental facial attractiveness and their adult children's facial attractiveness, at the collegiate age, shows about 70% of daughter's facial attractiveness is inherited from the parent's genes with the father's genes playing a slightly larger role in the daughter's facial attractiveness compared to the mother's genes.

Facial masculinity and facial femininity are two separate scales. Low facial masculinity does not automatically mean high facial femininity. A person's face can be low in both facial masculinity as well as facial femininity; in other words, having an overall androgynous appearance. The facial masculinity of moms has no affect on the facial masculinity of offspring. | Facial masculinity and facial femininity are two separate scales.

It is arguable to what extent facial masculinity is correlated with a man's [[beauty]], while most research clearly shows that facially feminine women are nearly universally considered more attractive. A guy with a hyper-masculine face could still be considered ugly or unattractive. Such a man is known as an [[Ogrecel|ogrecel]]. The Russian boxer, Nikolai Valuev (who suffers from a congenital pituitary gland disorder, leading to excessive human growth hormone production), is a good example of this archetype. | It is arguable to what extent facial masculinity is correlated with a man's [[beauty]], while most research clearly shows that facially feminine women are nearly universally considered more attractive.

Pretty boys are indeed primarily caused by non-dominant and or non-aggressive looking men reproducing. The son's prettiness is exacerbated if the mom has a face high in femininity (which is highly correlated with beauty, as well as excessive estrogen levels). Some pretty boy exacerbating factors are environmental pollutants like synthetic estrogens found in plastic softeners, fraternal birth order, unnatural diet, the mother having excessively high estrogen levels while pregnant, mutational load (inbreeding), natural genetics, autism or any combinations of the above. Informal [[physiognomy]] experiments done by the incel wiki team, suggest pretty boy/male model looking guys as well as pretty/model looking girls have been assortatively mating (beautiful people mating with other beautiful people) and thus very likely do have a higher [[mutation|mutational load]], which is associated with [[homosexuality|a higher rate of homo/bisexuality]]. | Pretty boys are indeed primarily caused by non-dominant and or non-aggressive looking men reproducing.

Indeed, an informal study again done by the incel wiki team showed only 11 out of 50 top male models of all time [[reproductive success|have children]] (normally rich, successful males are near guaranteed to have children), even though on average handsome men are less likely to be gay, according to the the prominent evolutionary psychologist, [[Satoshi Kanazawa]].<ref>https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-scientific-fundamentalist/200805/all-stereotypes-are-true-exceptv-all-extremely-handsome</ref> | Indeed, an informal study again done by the incel wiki team showed only 11 out of 50 top male models of all time [[reproductive success|have children]] (normally rich, successful males are near guaranteed to have children), even though on average handsome men are less likely to be gay, according to the the prominent evolutionary psychologist, [[Satoshi Kanazawa]].<ref>https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-scientific-fundamentalist/200805/all-stereotypes-are-true-exceptv-all-extremely-handsome</ref> | ||

The best men can do is to reliably reproduce pretty boys/chadlites and Stacys, as well as Gigastacys. On the other hand, again, because masculine facial features are only inherited from paternal DNA, women can select men that have both masculine and or beautiful faces. Thus under female mate choice, women can reliably reproduce any form of Chads(lite, Giga, pretty) as well as any form of Stacys. | The best men can do is to reliably reproduce pretty boys/chadlites and Stacys, as well as Gigastacys.

Pretty Boys tend to have an excessive interest in "[[Beauty#Beautiful_behavior|The Arts]]," this includes, but is not limited to: music (instrumental and vocal), dance, drama, folk art, creative writing, architecture, painting, sculpture, photography, graphic design, industrial design, costume and fashion design, motion pictures, television, radio, film, and video.

Pretty Boys are "8's" on the [[Decile|Decile Scale]] but generally are treated as if they are "5"s by other males. Since the vast majority of [[bluepill|bluepilled]], and even some [[redpill|redpilled]] men have absolutely no clue how high a Pretty Boy's [[SMV]] is, most men are completely blindsided when their girlfriends and wives are cheating on them with a Pretty Boy. | Pretty Boys are "8's" on the [[Decile|Decile Scale]] but generally are treated as if they are "5"s by other males.

Though, it is not known how much of this greater reproductive success can be attributed to a direct female preference for men with strong hands, with much of it likely due to grip strength being correlated with other desirable traits, such as overall health, physical attractiveness, and optimal pubertal or prenatal androgen exposure.

A study was performed on the effects of flowers on mating attractiveness and behavior, that included 18–25-year-old women (N = 600) walking alone in a shopping mall. These women were subsequently approached by a physically attractive 20-year-old male-confederate soliciting them for their phone number. The women were more likely to agree to the confederate's courtship solicitation when solicited in the area of the flower shop compared to a cake shop, or a women's shoe shop. Positive mood induced by exposure to flowers was used to explain these results. <ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00224545.2012.683463</ref> | A study was performed on the effects of flowers on mating attractiveness and behavior, that included 18–25-year-old women (N = 600) walking alone in a shopping mall.

It will come to a standstill as more men stop working jobs that benefit, innovate, or bring value to society in some way and instead focus on [[LDAR|LDARing]], [[NEET|NEETing]], or spending all their time [[looksmaxxing]]. The inevitable and eventual result is nearly every male in western society spending every ounce of their free time looksmaxxing in an effort to pass on their genes. Western society is becoming an exact mirror image of society within the Wodaabe African tribe, the most matriarchal society on the planet, with the vainest men. | ||
