I think it allows people to get an idea of what is considered attractive unattractive. Maybe if people discuss, they might find that they have many things in common. I don't know but that could help us figure out what is considered unattractive in many people's eyes.

Why do you think it matters just wondering?

The thing is that personal taste is just that personal taste. If someone came on here and took every persons dislikes and tried to fit into it they would fail miserably.
I want to talk about the scientifically suggested traits majority find unatractive in the hopes it may help some.
I'm not saying it's personal tastes aren't important just that there is already another place discussing that and it's a pretty talked about thing. It will eventually turn into a "well why don't you like that" thing I think.
I can find and put a link to the other post if you want?

Imagine you had a thread dominated by big cynics like Face of Boo, who profess to know what the majority is like, you wouldn't get any kind of alternative viewpoint. And heck maybe those who will get into relationships with aspies are in the minority so finding out what they like can be a good thing.

What the article says does make sense, however I think some of the studies are not particularly good.
Quote:
Being mean
Do nice guys really finish last?
For a 2014 Chinese study, researchers had men and women look at photos of other people, all displaying neutral expressions.
Some of those photos were accompanied by the Chinese words for "decent" and honest." Some were accompanied by the Chinese words for "evil" and "mean." Others weren't accompanied by any information.
Participants rated people as least attractive when they were described as evil and mean.

For example this is not really surprising and while it says something about what people want or don't want in a relationship it says little about who has how good chances to get into a relationship.
After all, people with bad personalities don't exactly have 'evil' printed onto their foreheads in real life. Sure some kinds of evil or mean
are easily recognizable and some people will be avoided by others because they seem evil but a lot of people with bad personalities know how they come across and know how to pretend. There obviously are many things in between being a 'good' person and a 'bad' person. So just because the participants don't like people that get attributed with the word 'evil' doesn't say much about what of the many things in between they prefer irl.
Still, people who claim that only the bullies of their own gender get girlfriends/boyfriends and the nice guys/girls don't are obviously wrong. If they can't get a girlfriend/boyfriend it's usually neither because the opposite gender has a preference for bullies and idiots nor because they are nice (if they are) but because something else about them mightn't be that attractive.
