In Nashville, most guys walk around looking like some kind of Iron Man Pickleball King version of Riley Green. But they are usually with busted looking girls who look hungover and worn out, like they had a rough night. What is even more confusing is that you often see the most attractive women with guys who are not Chads at all. So, what gives?
The reality is that most guys can become a seven or even an eight. Unless you have a serious physical deformity, you can make yourself relatively attractive just by getting to a healthy weight, keeping up with hygiene, learning how to dress, and working on your presence. One of my favorite YouTubers did exactly that (Pictured is How to Beast). What he did was not complicated. It just took consistency, some discipline, and the willingness to learn and fail along the way.
This works well in places where most men are not trying. If the average guy is lazy and out of shape, even a little effort makes you stand out. But when every man is trying to improve his looks and presentation, things change. In that kind of environment, women start choosing based on traits you cannot control, like being six foot three, having perfect bone structure, or looking like a celebrity.
With the internet and the spread of black pill ideas, looksmaxing and gym culture have become normal for a lot of younger men. But the truth is, most so called incels are not ugly. They usually fall in that seven to eight range. The issue is they are not quite good looking enough to get the women they want but also refuse to settle for someone they see as below their value.
Honestly, I do not even think How to Beast's wife is all that attractive. That just proves my point.
So, if most guys are out here trying to look like a five foot ten Riley Green, the most desirable women are going to choose the few men who look like Chris Hemsworth. That leaves everyone else to pair off with average women or get left with the options no one really wants.
Women value the most emotionally and socially resilient men. They often place confidence, status, and presence above physical looks. Yes, looks matter, but most guys just need to reach a minimum level of attractiveness. Once you pass that line, it becomes about who you are, not just how you look. Notice the guys that see the most success from looksmaxxing are guys that went from a 3 to a 6-7 vs the guys that went from a 6 to a 7-8. This is because these guys already had attractive non-physical traits but just needed to reach the minimum level of attractiveness for women.
Unfortunately, a lot of men never even get started when it comes to developing real confidence or status. They are stuck, held back by past mistakes, rejections, or failures that left a mark. It becomes a cycle that they never escape from.
Confidence is not something you can neglect. It is delicate and must be built and protected with care. Too many men treat it like some expendable resource, like a peasant Soviet soldier thrown into the Eastern Front. That mindset leads to burnout and emotional numbness.
The reality is, most guys today walk around with low confidence, low energy, and dry or forgettable personalities. They think having muscles or growing a mustache will somehow make up for that. But women see through it. The performance is obvious, and it falls flat.
Look up any video where a man creates a fake female dating profile. You will see the same pattern over and over. The men reaching out all blend together. They are not ugly, but they give off the same dull, lifeless energy. No spark. No presence.
For many men, this problem runs deep. Fixing it takes time, effort, and a mental reset. A lot of guys have been mentally poisoned by the red pill and black pill mindsets. These ideas strip away hope, joy, and social awareness. They create cold, bitter men who are hard to connect with.
Women will always choose a man who is a six out of ten but fun, confident, and emotionally present over a man who is technically more attractive but acts like a social robot or gives off creepy energy. Women follow how they feel, not a rating scale.
Yes, Chads can get away with almost anything. But here is the truth, you are not a Chad, and no amount of looks optimization will turn you into one. You need to build on your actual strengths, not chase an impossible standard.
TLDR: Looksmaxing can help but it is not the most effective way to become more attractive. Yes, you should go to the gym and take care of your appearance but that is only the beginning.
The real problem for many men is broken confidence and an unattractive personality. You cannot fix that with muscles or a new haircut. For some, the answer is not another workout plan but therapy, moving to a new city, focusing on women that find your type attractive instead of trying to become this magical skeleton key, or making a big change in life.
This is not a simple issue like a cold or infection. It is more like latent tuberculosis. It stays inside you, slowly harming you over time. If you ignore it, it will keep consuming you from within.
