How would you rate your looks? 2013-07-21 20:20:56 Reply

I was thinking back to that Dove commercial in which a sketch artist asked women to describe themselves, then asked a stranger who'd spent a bit of time with them to describe the same details. The results showed an astonishing difference in the way we view ourselves and the way others view us.

So I'm curious: Since we can't exactly duplicate the experiment here, how would you rate your looks, Newgrounds? If you could include a photo of yourself, that would be wonderful.
I figure it would be interesting to see how people rate themselves. Are there any consistencies above or below the more accurate rating, or are we objective enough to be spot on?

I don't think we should rate one another, since it will either turn out harshly accurate or too high for the sake of one another's self esteem, so we should likely keep numbers relative to others to ourselves.

I'll start!
Personally, I would rate myself between a 5 and a 7, so I'm going to go with a solid 6. I feel more confident in myself, since I recently began working out regularly, but ultimately I know I am not a model by any means.

I don't feel like searching for a photo, so here's one of me wearing a lady's hat, taken today in Kohl's.
I've really never felt so pretty.

Please for the love of science, let not the cam whores come to this place and defile us with their obsessive ramblings.

I am too humble to boast. And too much of a gentleman to tell.

So far the results have shown that we see ourselves exactly as we are.

I'm going to ignore that sarcasm because I am an overall 10/10 so I do not get phased by such peasants.

Nay. It has been done many other times and with a lot less drive than this. It's just not ideal to get the people exited about posting pictures of themselves and then to have it turn into a frenzy or self patting.

Is your hair dresser a monkey

Your facial hair is like a fusion between dirty highschool facepubes and 5 o'clock shaddow

How many more pimples until you have a full set

How much head is under that pseudo-afro

Do you have a closet just for all your scarfs

Are you sarcastically pulling off those hipster glasses or are they just there

Those are the only ones I can think of

You have a stunning jawline

So THAT'S where my Grandma put her glasses.

no seriously, get the kind of glasses you have on your icon, don't be a hipster, it leads to nothing good.

As for my self. I'd say I'm just a solid 6, average height, average weight, no muscles to really flex though I'm a pretty good runner/biker. I think I'm one point up on the norm simply because I think I have a good jaw line and not entirely shitty face all around. Course, you could argue this with ease.

Six out of ten.

Only bad thing is that I'm too short, which I guess isn't very attractive. I'm 5'5" and I'm pretty much done growing.

0/10 seems pretty accurate for me.

I'm handsome, intelligent and wise, but I live on instant soups and french fries, so I'm quite slender.

On a rate of 1 to 10, I'd have to give myself "dashing".

Most people say I'm ugly, but that's just on the Internet...which is probably where people are more honest. I guess I'd give myself a 5 out of 10 or something. It reminds me of all those pictures of celebrities without makeup. I probably look just as good as them. Hey, I'm learning to shave better!

I don't know. No body in real life has told me if I'm attractive or not.

Sometimes when I post pics of myself on imageboards men say they would give me a dicking

I'm at least a 7. Maybe an 8 if I'd stop tearing up my face by popping pimples.

Same for me here.

But if I were to rate myself, I would probably be a 4/10 or something.
