Introduction
------------
Boy oh boy, talk about pressure. Massagegirl and Jonesy really putting the heat on me to get going on this. It's been in a work in progress over the last little while, and bits and pieces of it have been entrenched in my brain, but I could never settle on all the particulars and put it into words. Now, with all this pressure to perform, I'm saying F it, I'll post a draft, get feedback, and then post a final version later on. I'm open to feedback, but try to reserve the flames. I'm "thinking out loud" here so it may not be 100% representative of what I end up thinking and believing in the end.
Beginnings
----------
Ok where to start. My scale is based on 1-10 and it's reference point is at 8.0. This reference point is not the mid point, but simply the point where the major question is. This major question is: Does the lady being rated turn heads? Turning heads doesn't necessarily mean LITERALLY turning heads. When a lady walks into a room with many other people, do 80% of them turn their head, give her a 2nd look, give her a detailed first look, or give her a detailed look at the corner of their eye? It can even mean the shy people giving her a glance, but then having secret thoughts about how beautiful she is. You can read this in most people's body language when they see a woman.
The 80/20 Rule
--------------
Why 80%? Well I believe in the 80/20 rule. Sure, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and you may think that a relatively unattractive lady by most standards is attractive, and there is nothing wrong with that... however, that doesn't help when making an OBJECTIVE rating on beauty for others to read. Society as a whole has it's ideas on what constitutes female beauty. A lot of it is ingrained into males when looking for a mate. So back to the question of 80/20. Once again, I believe that if 80% of the people in a room give a lady a 2nd look, then that lady can be considered in the top 20% in terms of female beauty.
2nd Looks
----------
So what constitutes a 2nd look? Well, sometimes a lady can be looked at for the wrong reasons. Sometimes she is only average at best, but dresses like a total slut and can get lots of 2nd looks. You have to exercise good judgment here. Read the body language of the people looking at her. This comes with experience. Sometimes she can be dressed classy and still get "bitch" and "slut" looks from jealous women, so you need to differentiate. What is a bitch or slut look? Well, it's when a woman is insecure or jealous of a more attractive woman "stealing her thunder" and gives her a "stare from hell" that says "you're a bitch" or "you slut" without actually mouthing the words. Hope that makes sense.
Spontaneous Ratings
--------------------
I believe in a "at the moment" ratings system, meaning that a girl is rated at that very moment, and then the rater can add whether she had potential or was at her maximum potential already. If you look at a high school prom, all the girls are done up nicely and obviously looking their best. But the next day, many of them easily lose 0.5 to 1.0 points in their normal routine.
Truly Beautiful Women
---------------------
I believe that most women, with some effort through diet, exercise, a healthy outlook on life, and some effort, can be at least 7.0's to 8.0's. However, TRULY beautiful women do not need to make much effort. They look beautiful no matter what. Take away all the makeup, all the fancy clothes. Is she still looks good, then she is a 9.0. 9.0 is very hard to get in my ratings system. To get 9.5, she must meet even more stringent criteria on face, breasts, legs, buttocks, and overall figure in general that can really only be observed when in the company of said lady for a closeup. The other alternative, when not able to observe yourself, is to rely on information of credible sources.
Eye Of The Beholder?
---------------------
In my system, a 10.0 objective rating is not possible. 9.5 is the highest. The last 0.5 goes towards one's personal preference. One person's beauty IDEAL is not likely the same as anothers. Hence, if I give a 10.0, then I am really giving a 9.5 and saying that the girl is my dream girl, the perfect girl FOR ME, in the looks department only of course. Once again, I value other categories more than looks, such as intelligence, sense of humour, ambition, kindness, and caring... just so you people reading don't think I'm shallow. I'm not.
Misc Tidbits to Consider
-----------------------
Height
------
A quick look at the recent Ms. Universe Pageant would suggest height is a factor, and I agree. The final 5 contestants were all 5'9" to 5'11" except Ms. USA (5'7"), which I don't count because I think she made it because Trump owns the Pageant.
I will say the following:
6'0" and over is a negative - too tall of a woman is considered unfeminine - maybe if she was exactly 6'0", that would be ok, but if she is obviously over 6 ft tall, to many, this becomes a bit of a negative. I think some of the final contestants were about 6'0", but were listed as 5'11" because of this very reason I describe.
5'9" to 5'11" is ideal in my book (well actually, I PERSONALLY prefer my women in the 5'7" to 5'9" range, but for the sake of breaking down into categories, I had to draw the objective line somewhere and I'm using the Ms. Universe Pageant as a reference).
5'6" to 5'8" is very good in my book. Could still be a 9.5 in my book if she was strong in other areas.
5'3" to 5'5" is a bit of negative. If she was strong in other areas, she could be a 9.0, but would be VERY HARD pressed to be a 9.5 in my book.
5'2" and shorter is a negative. She could easily be an 8.0, but she would need to be VERY strong in other areas to get 8.5. She would be very hard pressed to earn a 9.0, and I don't think a 9.5 is possible for somebody of this height. Sorry if I sound shallow, that's just the way I see it. Height does matter.
The Hollywood Factor
---------------------
Keeping in character, a misc test I use is the "wood" factor named after the character Hollywood in the movie Top Gun. For those of you who have seen the movie, you'll probably remember what I'm talking about. For those of you who haven't, now is a great time to get the special edition DVD for only about $15 at most big box stores. Great movie, great DVD. Plus, it'll help you understand half my posts
.
Most 7.0 to 7.5 will generally make you think "that girl is pretty" but will not give you instant wood. An 8.0 or 8.5 will usually give you a tingle down there. And a 9.0 or 9.5, when in close proximity, should give you a hard on. Like Hollywood says: "The mig must be close, I'm gettin' a hardon"
The Scale
----------
Ok here are my ratings and a short description of each. The critical points are 9.0 (this and higher is reserved for women with NATURAL beauty), 8.0 (this is the critical point where the woman gets 2nd looks, whether from natural or "effort" beauty), 7.0 (generally the girl next door look, PRETTY, but not quite BEAUTIFUL), 6.0 (the average looking girl), 5.0 and below (below average and not worth my time - if she doesn't care about her general appearance, there's probably a lot of other things she doesn't care about either).
10.0 - a 9.5 with an extra 0.5 saying this girl suits me perfectly. There are many beautiful women in the world. Most people cannot objectively dispute she is at least a 9.0 or 9.5, but to me, she is a 10.0.
9.5 - a 9.0 that meets all the smaller more stringent criteria to get that extra 0.5 points. This could mean nicer hair, facial features, firmer and shapelier overall figure, breasts, buttocks, legs, etc. This is a VERY DIFFICULT rating to achieve and should be reserved for the most beautiful of women.
9.0 - take away all the makeup and beauty enhancers. How does she look in the morning? If she still gets 2nd looks, she is a 9.0 in my book.
8.5 - Somebody that can be mistaken as a 9.0, but upon closer inspection, is closer to a 7.5 to 8.0 when all the "beauty enhancers" are taken away. Still, give her full marks for effort to look nice for her man. This can also apply to former 9.0's where age has taken it's toll and she's no longer "quite there."
8.0 - this woman will get 2nd looks whereever she goes. With experience, you should be able to tell almost immediately. If in a public place, quickly apply the head turning test or bitch looks test for quick verification. Usually, this woman takes care of herself with a reasonable diet, exercise, and if a bit overweight with love handles, makes up for it in other ways.
7.5 - this woman has the potential to turn heads, but is not quite there yet. With a bit of work, she will be in head turning territory. This could also apply to the girl next door look, whose goal is not to turn heads, but rather to look shy and demure, but prettier than average. The maximum possible without gaining unwanted attention.
7.0 - girl next door look, with the potential to have potential to turn heads. The more reserved pretty look that isn't immediately noticeable in a room. Nice on the eyes still. Some prefer this type, but that doesn't make them BEAUTIFUL, just PRETTY.
6.0 - average girl. These are dime a dozen. Most wouldn't give them a 2nd thought.
5.0 - below average. Is still clearly feminine. - edited 3:00 am June 21st by Annalise's request. Took out the word barely.
4.0 - does not make any effort to look healthy and feminine. Overweight, poor diet, visible body hair due to laziness to shave, etc. In other words, she just doesn't care.
3.0 - will make you cringe to look at her and cause quivers to run down your spine.
2.0 - very very unfeminine. Will make you wonder if this person was born female. It will be hard to tell if she is female or male.
1.0 - almost looks like a man.
0.0 - IS a man!
