"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

This video showed up in my feed. The statistics are interesting. Being a 6-6-6 guy, is extremely rare.
Biggest take away: there's a correlation between being considered conventionally attractive (facial) and being in shape (muscular + low BF), something you can control.

"How Rare Are Attractive Men Actually?"

Pause.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Wheat Waffles - who's rated 60'000 faces, says only 7% of men break into the 7+ category. Thats 1 in 14 young/prime guys.

An 8 is 3%. (1 in 33 young/prime men).

None is a 10, no female, no male. So highest is 9. Jon-Erik Hexum got rated close to a 9 on FaceIQ (some software that measures facial ratios). Teenage Doutzen Kroes for women got rated close to a 9.

The same applies to women. According to ChatGPT, only about 2-5% of North American women are what most men would consider attractive (i.e. fit body, attractive face, age 18-35).

he’s probably pretty ballpark with those stats yeah
I think he rates harshly tho, and his % is lil bit low.

But how can there be no 10/10 for either sex? That’s rediculous. Of course there has to be. Whoever the top models are in the world are the 10s. The trending 10s of that particular era that is. As trends change constantly.

Prime Henry Cavill would be a 10, David Ghandy and lots of other males. Margot Robbie surely would be one for the females. And others. Plus all the female supermodels are 10s. Obvs.

Jon-Erik Hexum is a 10 also imo.
Like. What’s the differentiator from a 9 to a 10 anyway? something super rare , like an unusual eye colour probably…

Google AI summary gives this
Prompt -who is fhe most handsome man in history?

There is no single official or universally agreed-upon most handsome man in the world of all time, as beauty is subjective and varies by era, culture, and personal preference. [1]
However, several iconic figures and scientific metrics frequently top historical and modern lists:

Scientific Facial Proportions (The Golden Ratio)
    • Aaron Taylor-Johnson: Named the most handsome man in recent facial mapping studies using the ancient Greek Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi (scoring 93.04%).
    • Regé-Jean Page: Ranked near or at the top of digital face-mapping studies by cosmetic surgeons with a score of around 93.65%. [1, 2]
    • Robert Pattinson and George Clooney: Frequently cited in scientific face-mapping studies as having near-perfect facial symmetry and structural proportions. [1]

Classic & Historical Icons
    • Alain Delon: Widely hailed across classic cinema and global polls as the benchmark for timeless, natural male beauty.
    • Paul Newman & Marlon Brando: Permanent fixtures on classic Hollywood lists for their defining screen presence, piercing features, and rugged charm.
    • David Beckham: Frequently referenced globally for setting modern standards in style, grooming, and athletic elegance. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
