I posted on a soc rating thread and got only 5s and 6s and that's terrible considering /soc/ doesn't give anyone below 5
My already non existent self esteem had just plummeted. Why was I such a fool to try it.
How do I deal with this

Meh, soc can be brutal.
It depends on who‘s rating you.
If you get rated by someone attractive, they tend to rate very low. Ugly people rate high. It‘s subjective. It also depends where those people rating you are from. People from rural areas rate higher than people from cities. They‘re just more used to well groomed and looks-conscious people.
Don‘t let it get to you user. All you can really do is maximize what you got. Chasing anything else is pointless anyways.
But I don't know how to maximize I'm already doing everything
Post your face here and i will rate you. Soc is stupid.
I'm not posting my face online ever again
What did you expect?
Then link the thread
Are you male? Heterosexual?
Yes
I thought I wasn't THAT ugly, literally haven't seen many people rated lower
>Then link the thread
It's archived, I posted and forgot about it but checked today, not going to link.
5s and 6s aren’t bad what do you want?
You’re like a 4 idk
People on /soc/ never rate anyone below 5 user.
Because people below 5 knows it and don't post themselfs
I wanted to post my face to get rated,
how do i do it safely?
I can't stop having irrational fear that my face is getting leak on the internet and bad things gonna happen.
In reality, it doesn't matter because i'm yet another random bypasser
I was rated 4/5 and i though "neat at least i am not disfigured, i ca work with this!"
Same
Unless you're super ugly or super beautiful no one will case.
No, people treat 5 as lowest
>My already non existent self esteem had just plummeted.
No offense; but it should. Idk who you are nor what you look like, but if your self image is higher (or lower) than reality... then you need a reality-check or to improve your self-esteem.
This is a normal and healthy process when our heads get too big. Yeah it hurts, but it'll help you in the long run. Let the feelings happen. Then your life will move on
I also felt really shitty for a couple of days user, give it time, it will go away soon
I thought I was okay looking, not literally the lowest score on soc
except /soc/ is fucked in the head when they saw too many faces.
I feel like some of them are giving way lower scores when the person in pic looks pretty good.
was planning to post my face after seeing OP's post.
But after going for a walk in /soc/, i realize i shouldn't trust those retarded fuckers.
OP, try posting your face here, at least people around are more normal.
But expect and beware of pity scores that give you way higher than you should get.
>people treat 5 as the lowest
is this really true or are you just being paranoid
he's not paranoid.
Go to /soc/ and see for yourself.
Idiots don't even know how rating works.
But at the same time, nobody is looking so ugly that they deserve low scores like 1-3.
It is 100% true.
Just look at like first 12 people here and tell me what you'd rate them? Then compare it to the soc score.
Just rate them here. NONE of them are below average I think.
>NONE of them are below average I think.
But that may just be me because I'm fucking ugly and I'd never have the balls to post there.
I'd say the OP looks the worst and the one with a weird smile.
looked through 12 person, and
is probably the only one i would rate 6,
and that's not even because he's ugly looking.
But that he have this baby face making him undesirable.
probably have more valid reasons to feel ugly than you
Take Jow Forums from someone who met his ex of half a decade on /soc/: get off /soc/ as soon as possible and never look back. While my ex ended up being an okay person in the long run, that place is a pit. Femcels, incels, misanthropes, sexual deviants, and everything else you can imagine flock there because they're all looking for someone to shoulder the entirety of their social burden. It's a cess pool of narcissism, dishonest, and LGBT madness.
/soc/ was very different back in 2012. A lot more women, a lot less awkward, and it actually had a thriving community of people with trips, since it was one of the few boards where having a thread-to-thread identity was useful. Not anymore, though.
Leave while you still have dignity. Out of the hundreds of people who post there, all of maybe 10% of them will ever share a picture of their face. That means you're taking bottom-barrel judgement calls from 90% social cowards. Seriously, don't take some bitter assholes's arbitrary face score stop you from believing in your ability to get laid. Also, statistically, the person who scored you is probably a man and a homosexual, so if you're not gay, you have extra reason to not give an ounce of a shit.
I'm not OP not am I in that thread.
And how would you rate the others?
Here's my rating
OP - 4
- 8
- 9
- 7
- 6
- 8
- 6
- 7
- 8
- 5
- 7
- 7
- 6.5
Now look at their scores given by people from soc

/soc/ isn't a very good place for validation or even confirmation that you're doing well. It takes time to find your aesthetic and do what you need to do. I've got tan skin, which in the wrong lighting has ugly green overtones and in the right lighting looks very warm and attractive. I take solid colors with lots of white, black, grey, blue, red, and some pink for my clothes. I keep my hair medium-short, work out, and try and take advantage of the good jaw I have (which isn't square but is very well defined). I'm south asian, so not a lot of people on this site are on my side, but from my peers and general community (which is mostly white, with a lot of east and south asians in the mix), I'm considered fairly handsome in day to day stuff and very attractive when I put in some more work into the look for the day. I guess it helps that my competition isn't the best looking, but like I said, it's all about the feedback from people around you.
user, I assure you that you are not nearly as bad looking as they're saying. It's hard to rate people on a scale because everyone's is different, and everyone on /soc/ is influenced by a few trends.
Yeah but everyone is different and if they still find a scale to rate everyone on and I fall short and low on that scale I'm still on average way worse looking than them.
soc threads are not real, it's just spambots repeating the same thread every day, the same pictures, the same comments
Not sure about that one friend
/soc/ isn't a good metric. You get massive amounts of selection bias, the same few people post there all the time, they're very harsh to people who don't look like them, etc. Seek the scale from people you know and interact with everyday. Trust me, there's like a 99% chance you're either already attractive or that given some work, you can be attractive. Only a very, very, very small subset of people cannot be attractive.
None of those people are bellow average.
Then delete this thread, there is no other way to help
I got threes man, just be grateful it want worse
Tfw got 4s and 5s not a 6
You're lucky OP
I think i am the only one there that got 1
>Trust me, there's like a 99% chance you're either already attractive or that given some work, you can be attractive
How are you susposed to make yourself attractive?
I shower everyday, keep my skin clean, decent haircut, good hygiene... but still am not attractive.
What else is there to do?
>How are you susposed to make yourself attractive?
You cant, why do you want to change anyway? Also make sure you hit the gym.
well, I don't know you, so I can't really assess it. People are mostly made in the face by their hair first and foremost, their jaw second, and then their nose. You can generally work with hair easily, work a little less easily with jaw, and so on and so forth. My guess is that you look fine but have some hangups about specific features in your face. I can't say anything specific because I have no info on how you look
user, you're ignoring what I told you; seek opinions from people around you. /soc/ isn't the place to look for the 10 from.
You can. As long as you have a completely unworkable face, you can always make choices to make yourself more attractive. People think conventional attractiveness (hurr durr chad and Stacy) is the only thing out there, but most people find how to be attractive on a various set of looks. You just have to find your look and capitalize off of it
> seek opinions from people around you
Face to face no one is going to tell you the truth user
Yes they are. You ask them to tell you straight up, one on one, in private. I always got my best criticism from my friends who are girls. They always gave me good feedback, especially on stuff I was really insecure about like crooked teeth
But what if you dont have any friends that are girls?
Then you ask your guy friends, ask your mom to be brutally honest about what you need to work on, and see if a girl at your school/job/etc. would be willing to give you honest advice about your appearance so you can fix it if necessary
Don't fool yourself 5 is an average. It's like having IQ of 100 which is OK
Nope i got a few 4s a few 5s.
>tfw shit greasy hair, no jaw and a big fat nose
It isn't fair
Same but add negative tilted eyes, can anything be done about these 4?
Yes, if you take care of your hair and get rhinoplasty
i feel good now, ive been getting 6's and some 7's. the other day got called a "solid 8 or 9"
i didnt know i was above average, i have low self esteem i guess
I wash my hair every 2nd day but have to keep it short because of it being greasy
Stop being such a passive faggot. Change the shampoo and conditioner. Ask at the pharmacy for things for very greasy hair and how often they advise to use them.
Or just go to a derm and see what they say.
Look dude, i am not disgusting to look at, i just literally am below average. And on top of that 4-5 rating i am 5'3" dude, so yeah.
Even i know it is all about confidence and character, i have been called cute and sympathetic, i can work with that. But i never did proper approaching so we will see. It is just a bit hard to break 20 year long habbits..
>One time I posted on /soc/ and the thread devolved in to making fun of me, calling me fat, and noting how I looked like a cave ogre from LotR
>A completely different time, I posted the same pics and got a lot of positive feedback and timestamped girls asking for me to "post moar" and ask my location and shit.
You just shouldn't post on /soc/, to be honest. Most people on Jow Forums forget it's even there.
