Someone on reddit did an ''experiment'' to see what would happen when a girl most people would consider below average to average attractiveness posted on their "amiugly" subreddit



Pic of the girl:

Do you think she's even worse than below average? I wouldn't say she's that bad.


I think she's relatively attractive.
Original post by Nihilisme
Actually it is.

Reddit has 231 million unique monthly visitors


Interesting would be the ratio of visitors to those who posted her a message

they're supposed to stay in my body not stay out >.>
I think OP is using a picture of a bad looking girl and using comments from a better looking girl to make us think the disparity is that big, if it was true then he could've just linked the reddit thread.

I don't think guys are that desperate to give that girl a 9/10.
what the flip are you talking about, op?

Apologies but I couldn't really figure out what that meant and yeah I guess constantly complimenting is weird but this was on reddit and not a dating site, so the guys wouldn't be expecting anything more or at least they shouldn't be.


Yeah, sorry. It did seem long-winded. :P I just meant the same 'white-knights' are probably digging their own graves with the constant compliments. Because that would seem like desperation - hence, these girls not being interested in them, leading them to complain about it afterwards.

And yeah, that is a fair point. But I see so much stuff like this elsewhere as well, on Instagram especially. Makes me cringe to the max.

Imo she isn't below average :/

But thirsty men on reddit will be thirsty. That's why they're on reddit - it's hardly a representative sample.


Also saying someone is on reddit because they're thirsty hardly makes sense, nearly all of my male friends including myself use reddit, even one of our teachers at school used it. Not one of us have ever used it to pick up girls or anything like that.

I think sometimes, if someone is really unattractive people might give them higher scores to not upset them. Like on Facebook, girls used to always do these "Like my post and I'll rate your looks" and whenever their fat, unattractive friend like it all the comments would be. "10/10 girl" "So gorgeous girl 1000/10), "I want your figure so hot girl, 10/10"

I think the messages are from the private messages of a fake account set up to see what happens. Not messages on the actual thread?

Have I offended you in some way? I feel you're being defensive.

The reason the people on this particular forum on reddit use said forum is to thirst over girls obviously and attempt to gain access to more pictures. I did not mean to generalise the entire reddit userbase as thirsty men - that's clearly untrue as it is not only men that use reddit.
Bs thread. Post link op or your bsing. But i agree many people hand out 9 out of 10 like its ice cream on there

You said people on reddit are thirsty hence why they use reddit, you could've specified.

I don't think even 1% of the reddit userbase even uses that sub.

I would have said she was fairly decent looking. Interesting eyes, nice pouty lips, smooth skin, decent hair.

Sure, some of the guys might have gone a bit overboard, but then again everyone has different tastes. Post a picture of anyone on the internet and you've got a big enough sample size that there will be people who probably do think she's absolutely gorgeous. Everyone has different tastes.

No. I said the reason thirsty men are on reddit is because they're thirsty.

Not quite sure what you mean by underdeveloped tbh. The iris has quite a dark ring which gives them a certain depth, they have a nice enough colour. I don't see anything wrong with them as such. Sure, not the giant eyes that might be seen as more normally attractive, but as mentioned, everyone has different tastes.
