Why I stopped using the 1-10 rating scale

[AudiTy]

The guy in David DeAngelo's DYD seminar, I think he's called Steve,
had the right idea.

"The rating scale is the biggest load of bs ever laid on man, there is
only one rating scale I use, she's either a 1 or a 0. She's
good enough, or she's not good enough"

This is a wise way of looking at things, for many reasons.

When you see a 7.5, you think to yourself "She's cute, I'll approach
and see what happens". When you see a 9.5, it can be easy to get
caught up in the moment and act according to the rating, folding
under the added pressure, "Wow she really is something, I better not
screw this one up".

When you implement the 1 - 0 (digital) scale, this neutrilises the
factor of beauty, or how well you will have to do to close. I
understand that your game will differ for different standards of
looks, but if you treat it as either she's a target or she isn't, it
can be alot easier to approach as the reactions to the girl are
based on your standards, rather than her standard.

Any thoughts?

I didn't think people use the scale in real life,that would be taking the scale thing and forum way way too far.

The scale is just so you can give people an idea of the sort of girls they are dealing with on field rapport and tactics as there is no picture. dealing with ugly girls, average girls and super hot girls are all totally different so you need some sort of rating system other wise you might be trying to do stuff on super hot girls that was a tactic originally used on some fat hog.

But yeah i agree in real life its either a yes, no or maybe

 

[qweretyuiopas]

I've kind of adopted this method into my own thinking, although i've never heard of it before. I didn't really have a scale, such as the 1-0 scale. When i am looking for girls to approach, i just have come to the point where i look at a girl and decide whether i'd want to talk to her or not. If she's cute and her personality seems to work for me, or i just get a vibe that she's the kind of girl i'd want to talk to and i'm attracted i'll go for her, if not then, i won't. That's just how it goes. It makes things a lot easier. It's no longer, whether she's cute or not, it's whether you're interested in not. It closes off all kinds of doubt, and you go for what you want, and don't get intimidated by hotter girls. A girl is a girl. That's basically it.

I subscribe to Gunwitch's view that a man when presented with the opportunity to have sex with a woman under circumstances in which he is GUARANTEED that nobody he knows will ever find out, he will almost always have sex with her unless she is deformed, morbidly obese or smells bad. Once faced with the knowledge that people who can judge him will know it happened things change, and herein lies the origin of the 1-10 scale.

I think if you say I'd fucck her or I wouldnt fucck her, it just turns into I'd fucck her, all the way up to I'd fucck her brains out.

I dont use the rating system unless describing a chick to someone anyway

 

[[S]alvatore]

In a conversation with Wyldfire she said there are 3 categories that she places men in:

-Not at all attractive
-Somewhat attractive
-Very attractive

I think that's all you need really.

 

[MightyMate]

There is rating.
When You seek for wife then there is 0 and 1. But when You seek for adventure, sex, fun, 1 night stand etc. Then You need more rates.

the problem with the 1 - 10 scale is you find most ppl say every girl is a 6 or 7 bcoz they dont wanna say the girl is too ugly, or too hot, so they hover in the middle but just above 5 bcoz 5 is directly average.

 

[realsmoothie]

You need two scales:

0 or 1 for YOURSELF when you are out and meeting girls. Either you'd approach or not.

1-10 for discussing it with others, so they get some kind of sense of how hot the girl is.

Let's make this really complicated... turn it into a two number system. The first number is YOUR number, the second is for everyone else.

"So, I was walking the boardwalk and this readhead 1/7.5 comes down the street with her 1/8 and 0/5.5 friends...".

LOL

 

[Brando SC]

I actually like that idea Wyldfire presented. The not attractive, somewhat attractive, and very attractive. It really covers the whole spectrum. Also i agree with the idea of rating to discuss, but in a way it just seems kinda of trivial to me you know. Cause attraction and physical appearence isn't a measurable quantity, it's all a perspective so in a way placing numbers on it just seems a little out of place. because one person's 2 could be another person's 9. The numbers are just so bland you know. I just say go with it and just say if you think the girl's attractive or not. Man, i totally lost what else i was going to say, but i think i did a good job of getting most of it out.

[TillTheEndOfTime]

It is simple stuff. You are either attracted to her, or not. That's my scale.

Just because someone else made it famous doesn't mean you shouldn't get some credit.

You win a Gold Star and a packet of Malteasers. WELL DONE!
