What do you rate yourself in appearance?

r/

Do you look older or younger your age? Do you get compliments for your clothing?

    I’d say a 6 at best and I think I look my age for the most part.

  2. Kubrick_Fan Avatar

    I’m 42. I look about 28, even with my scraggly beard with grey bits in it. If I shave it all off? 23
    I guess i’m a 3/10

  3. Anchor_Bar Avatar

    I’m “not bad.” I will also accept “not too shabby” or “cleans up well.”

    I used to always look younger than my age, but now I’m fairly certain that most people would guess my age accurately (55).

    I started going grey in my late teens, full grey by 22.

    At my best, I am an 8.5 or 9. (trimmed, fresh hair, styled, dressing to go out)

    At my average, 7.5 o 8. (keeping my hair done, wearing my daily clothes, etc)

    At my worst, like a 5 lol. (drank to much on the weekend, haven’t had a haircut in awhile, ate 6 cheese burgers while drunk and now I feel sweaty and bloated).

    Going out on dates I did, but like, does that really count? lol

  6. ExpectoPornum2 Avatar

    Probably a 6 or 7. Nothing particularly attractive about me but I have decent hygiene, wife-approved clothing, and I eat healthy and workout regularly

  7. stevendub86 Avatar

    4-6 depending on the day. My wife thinks I’m cute though and that’s what matters

  8. NonkelG Avatar

    8.5 (tall, muscular/aesthetic) but face likely making me lose a few points. I do look younger than my age. I’m 26 but most guess me at 20-22.

  9. tnerb253 Avatar

    6 I work out and take my appearance serious but my height probably knocks me down a few points in female standards. I wasn’t blessed with the genetics lottery

  10. TenThousandSniffs Avatar

    I would say I’m about a 3-4/10, maybe a 5-6/10 for someone who has a fetish for white people.

    I’m 34, but most people usually guess that I’m in my mid-20s – mostly because I’m short, always clean-shaven, not balding, don’t smoke or drink, and rarely go out in the sun (despite everything, I am still ugly though).

  11. Efficient-Log8009 Avatar

    10/10, fucking flawless. My problem is with social skills.
    Always get complimented on my style. No one believes I’m over 30, most guess mid 20s.

  12. FelixGoldenrod Avatar

    I’ve been told I look younger but I think I look my age. Apparently I take good care of my skin. Wardrobe does get the occasional compliment if I try to dress nice

    Overall I think I look fine. Not good enough to be like “oh my God, Becky” but not bad enough to call 911

    I’d say 7.
    Definitely above average, not anything too special though.

    I get compliments often, either about my looks or what I wear, or haircuts etc..

  15. NotBorn2Fade Avatar

    3, maybe 4 on a good day. I have a ridiculous babyface that makes me look leagues younger in a bad way. I’m also fat, and while I’m aware there’s a hot kind of fat, I’m unfortunately very much not that.

  16. Prof_Scott_Steiner Avatar

    3 on a good day but a better man than most

  17. SewerSlidalThot Avatar

    10/10. I’m a hot piece of ass and I know it.

  18. FreakyPenguinBoy06 Avatar

    I would say I’m a 5 or a 6 out of 10. I feel like I’m pretty average-looking. I’m not a drop-dead gorgeous adonis, but I’m wouldn’t call myself hideous either.

    Though I have been told I look rather youthful for my age. I’m 27 and people think I’m somewhere in my early twenties (mainly 20-23). Not too much of a gap, but I’ll still take the complement. I guess I have that going for me.

  19. lildudefromXdastreet Avatar

    Probably a 7-8, I’m no model but I’m definitely above average looking facially, have a good physique (6 pack + muscles), and am 6’.

    I look my age and get compliments on clothing a decent bit (although I reuse the same three outfits pretty regularly, but no one on the street would notice lol)

  20. Reckless_Waifu Avatar

    I look exactly the way I like, whis is probably not to taste of others. That said, most people can’t guess I’m on my way ro 40 and have kids. 

  21. Nash_man1989 Avatar

    I have to say I look better now at 41 than when I was younger. I get far more compliments these days

  22. Vanilla_Villainy Avatar

    I used to think of myself as a solid 7 but after being single for 5 years and having literally zero success in the dating scene I think of myself more as a 4, maybe 5 now

  23. cinefilestu Avatar

    Definitely an 8 under all of this fat.

  24. CurrentlyLucid Avatar

    Not as high as other people seem to. I must fit a type, some women go bonkers, some give no shits.

  25. That_Engine_6755 Avatar

    I’m a 10. If all the girls can delude themselves into the idea that they’re all 10s, then we can too! Let’s go boys! 

  26. Brilliant-Onion2129 Avatar

    In my 20s I was probably a solid 8. Now when my beard grows I look older! When I completely shave my face I look younger. 4-5 now

  27. Dhtekzz Avatar

    I’d say somewhere around 6-7. My gf thinks I look handsome and my clothing is pretty decent (I don’t agree on the clothing one tho, I literally wear a t-shirt and a pair of jeans most of the time). I get a lot of compliments on my fitness. I’m pretty active in that part.

  28. brooksie1131 Avatar

    I am bald so I have looked middle aged since like 19. Granted I look younger when my head is clean shaven vs if I am too lazy and have hair still growing on the sides of my head. Probably look about my age if I shave my head clean or at least age ambiguous. As for how attractive am I? Honestly I have no clue but I image not very. I have gotten very little attention since I went bald but then again I don’t interact much with women outside of work so hard to tell really.

    Between a 3 and a 6

  30. Steel_boss Avatar

    I’m pretty fucking funny

  31. Smeeble09 Avatar

    Solid 3/10, mainly because I’m tall with broad shoulders and don’t have anything particularly off putting about my appearance, but I don’t have anything inciting either as I’m a bit fat, bald, late 30’s etc. 

  32. Jalex2321 Avatar

    In my best days I was a solid 3. Nowadays, maybe a solid 1.

    I have never got any kind of compliment for the way I look.

    I look way younger than I am.

  33. Solid_Enthusiasm550 Avatar

    7-8, not because I think I am that great. I am getting my 6 pack back at 47m after loosing 30lbs. ( now 190lbs), close 5′-10/11″, narrow waist/broad shoulders and have a good head of hair.

    It’s because most men I see aren’t even trying. Severely overweight, they don’t even bother to get better. Poorly dressed/ kept, like they are too lazy to try.

    I look around and most guys look like 4s… so the scale has slid way down. Because there are soo many 4s, they are now the 5. What was a 5 is now a 6 and so forth.

    Body wise I’m in better shape than most late 20/30yr old I see. It’s probably because I don’t play video games.

  34. SoulSpiegel12 Avatar

    Currently a 1 but at my peak a solid 5

  35. SkawPV Avatar

    >What do you rate yourself in appearance?

    3/10, bog-standard average guy.

    >Do you look older or younger your age?

    I always looked younger (I don’t drink nor smoke, so I guess it is because of that).

    >Do you get compliments for your clothing?

    Just the opposite. They only attention I get is from the police from time to time, lol.

  36. averagedude_2023 Avatar

    Solid 3. I’m obese, balding, dark skinned( live in a country where light skinned people are co sidered attractive), have big ass lips, talk too loud people think I’m screaming when I talk with my normal voice, introvert, anxiety, IBS, short etc. I am cooked. Also I look far older than my age I’m literally an undergrad but some call me uncle and some ask where I work so yeah.. My mom’s the only one who calls me handsome.

  37. lumpynose Avatar

    I’m 72 and look every year of it. I stopped worrying/thinking about how I look way back in my 40s.

  38. Nondescript_585_Guy Avatar

    3-5 out of 10 at best. I’m not overweight or anything, but solidly average. I don’t receive any attention, at least not that I’ve noticed.

    I’ve got an increasing amount of gray hair that probably makes me look a bit older than I actually am.

    No one says anything about my clothes, positive or negative.

  39. LEIFey Avatar

    I’d say I’m a 4 or 5. Below average in face but I’m active and in decent shape. I look younger than my age. I do get complimented for my clothing from time to time.

  40. AnonymousBanana7 Avatar

    6-7. I’m 28 but always get told I look way younger.

  41. Wide-Conflict357 Avatar

    8/10, which to me means not model level but on the level of like actors and shit who are known for being good looking.

    I look younger than my age, and I frequently get complimented on my clothes.

  42. Galaxyman0917 Avatar

    I think I’m hot shit, but realistically I’d put myself at like an 8, depending on how my hair is cut.

    But I definitely look younger than my age, though I’ve got crows feet appearing. I certainly look younger than a looooot of people my age I’ve noticed.

  43. 5ft6manlet Avatar

    7 but 8 with a good haircut

  44. fanofrex Avatar

    6 on an average day. 7 if I dress up. I’m 41 but just started showing my age. Most guess me to be in my late 20’s. I work all the time so I’m almost always in my work polo or just t-shirt and jeans so no I don’t get compliments for my clothing.

  45. -Hopeful-Addendum- Avatar

    Hopefully a 7, but maybe a 5 (honestly 4.5)

  46. ifthiswasamovietv Avatar

    6/10, im 23, but people say i look younger or good for my age lol

  52. eight47pm Avatar

    A solid 4 on looks alone, with personality maybe a 3.5

  53. MaceInThePlace Avatar

    7ish.
    Definitely younger.
    And sometimes. I don’t dress up much.

  54. Altroniq Avatar

    11 out of 10😁

  55. deathray-toaster Avatar

    I’m guessing 5 or 6, I probably look a lot younger than I am since I nearly always need to show ID while buying alcohol. I mostly get compliments on my style while I dress really nice.

  56. IgnisSolus4X Avatar

    6 at best.. but also muy not into 9/10 women.. plus i have money so

  57. Tebers431 Avatar

    Probably a 4

  58. fullofsharts Avatar

    I look younger for my age. Recently went for a medical visit and the doctor triple checked my age and thought I looked 20 years younger than I am (49). With that, I’d say I’m a solid 4, because my body is a shitshow.

  59. negcap Avatar

    RIght now I feel like an 8 but I know I could do better. I definitely look younger than my age and I look noticeably younger than my siblings. I don’t think it was genes, I think I have always done the basic stuff to maintain health: exercise, drink water, get plenty of sleep, no booze, no cigarettes, stay in the shade or wear sunscreen, that kind of thing. I started going gray in my teens and I like it.

  60. asking_anything Avatar

    I’d say like 5-7 right now. There’s a lot of room for improvement if I feel like 5 sometimes.

  61. JebediahKerman4999 Avatar

    i’m a 5, nothing extraordinary about me. i could easily be one in a crowd and instantly forgotten. which means i’m a 5.

  62. Used_Oil612 Avatar

    8/10. Tall, dark, slim, fit, clear skin, nice hair, good jaw and cheekbones. But a big head and very ugly feet.

  63. churito69 Avatar

    Difficult to say. 6 – 6.5 on a good day, I’d say.

    I have trouble keeping the weight off… down at 73kg, maybe even a 7… at 77kg, closer to a 6.

  64. Nebula_Thinker Avatar

    2 or 3, i guess

  65. RaphealWannabe Avatar

    younger than my age, I have no fashion sense and never receive any compliments unless they are trying to scam me (like today).  

    I’d rate myself a 3, maybe a 2, only because I know men who are way more ugly (sadly) then me. 

  66. IceeIvy Avatar

    About a 4 or 5. I’m have enough self respect to not rate myself any lower and the awareness that I’m not attractive.

    I’m often mistaken for being a teen or younger than I look IF I shave my stache and beard.

    I believe Ik how to dress myself. I feel (but not look) like a 7 or 8 if I dress nicely.

  67. thenerdygeek Avatar

    3-4, but if I could drop all this weight, probably up to a 6-7.

  68. Scary_Course9686 Avatar

    I’d say 6 is fair, and I look 2 years younger

  69. No_End_1315 Avatar

    Solid -100, I’m ugly af.

  70. Tsuki-Kuro Avatar

    I can’t give a rating, but I don’t look my age, I look much younger, I have a more alternative style, I really like my hair and I have a pretty face. But I’m not satisfied with my body and I’m also very sedentary and I have to take care of it again.

  71. Idum23 Avatar

    8 on a good day, 5 on a bad day

  72. ever-inquisitive Avatar

    Depends. In pure looks, 7 on a good day. 3 lately. But add points for intelligence, creativity, humor, being a good father and provider? Might be different.

  73. Wide_Ad_7607 Avatar

    6-7 depending on the day

  74. TwinJacks Avatar

    2 or 3 out of 10.

  75. ContinousSelfDevelop Avatar

    I’d rate myself an 8/10. On a realistic basis I never really had trouble hooking up with a woman. I am perfectly aware that I am attractive considering I am the one getting approached some of the time. I am decently muscular, but have a bit of pudge still leftover and a bit of facial scarring due to psoriasis, but overall have good looks. If I lose the stomach and can fix a couple face issues, then a 9/10 I’d say.

  76. HauntingShine2810 Avatar

    4/10 I suppose. I could be atleast an 8 if I tried, nothing stopping me but my own habits really. I just need to lose weight and shave tbh, maybe change the haircut I’ve had for 16 years since I was 10 lol.

    In terms of genes I didn’t quite win the jackpot, but not too far off either, I know I’m very lucky. I’m tall, broad, naturally strong, blonde, green eyes, I don’t have any physical problems. I even have perfect teeth (not quite but I’ve never had a filling or any work done whatsoever, my teeth are as naturally straight and intact as they ever come). If I took the time to fully lose the weight I’ve put on since school (more than I care to admit lol), shave, really cleanse my face (remove all the blackheads etc), get the mole on the side of my nose taken off, and buy some nice clothes so I don’t look like a medieval peasent I could be handsome if I wanted I suppose.

    I do have good muscle definition in my arms and legs as I’m a working man, with the farmer tan to go along with it. But ya boy needs to do more cardio for the beer belly

    No one is going to think you are the best unless you do yourself.

  78. lifesyndrom Avatar

    8/10. Tho I think once I lose more weight I’ll be a 9

  79. No_Ragrets2013 Avatar

    2/10. I’m 48 and weigh about 130 lbs. couldn’t gain weight if I tried. NO woman likes a lightweight.

  80. yepsayorte Avatar

    I genuinely have no idea. I can’t tell if other men are handsome or not. I can’t tell if I’m handsome or not. I’m never in situations in which flirting could happen so I can’t even judge based on women’s reaction.

    I know I used to be good looking (when I was still dating) but that definitely doesn’t mean that I still am. I might be an ugly old man.

    The good news is that I don’t think it matters. I’m not planning on dating so what good would being handsome do me?

    I asked my wife and she said not this shit again / 10

  82. Texas_Kimchi Avatar

    43 but people think im in my late 20s early 30. Good genetics my Mom is in her 60s and people think shes my sister. Looks wise? Depends on what you like. I’m short but nobody looks quite like me due to my mix. Ive always had extremely attractive girlfriends so maybe a 6 or 7 combined with my personally.

    Edit: Before I got my nose fixed I would have said a 4. Getting my nose fixed gave me all the confidence I needed.

  83. user29092021 Avatar

    On a scale of 1-10, 1 being unlucky with genes, worst possible combinations…

    And 10 being supermodel level

    I rate myself a healthy 5 out of 10.

    I’m definitely on the more attractive side, but there’s plenty of things i need to work on to bump it up to like 7-8/10

    Maybe a 6 cause I’m a bit taller then average and I know some people care about that.

  90. yvaN_ehT_nioJ Avatar

    I’d put myself as a 4, chatgpt said I was around a 7-8. I asked it to generate some “looksmatches” and rate those.. it generally spat back 7-9. I’d say they were all fair assessments and other people reporting their results gave back ones I’d consider fair.

    On paper, for me yeah I guess I agree with it. My mind doesn’t though! It doesn’t really matter if you don’t get that real, on the ground feedback from actual women showing interest, and you don’t really have any chance of that if you live in a place like I do where all the women are married! I’d be lying if the AI responses weren’t a confidence booster, honestly. Still doesn’t really erase that mental rating of a 4. I’d probably need to see actual interest to move that needle.

    I get compliments on clothing though, but thats from men and women. Basic “I like your tie” “nice shirt” type things. I figure I look a year or two below my actual age.

  91. SimplySeano Avatar

    I’m like a meh. I probably look older than I am. I don’t think I’ve got a compliment on my clothes.

  92. NH_Lion12 Avatar

    6.5. Slightly above above average. My style tends to be better than my face et al. But I get a decent amount of mustache compliments.

  93. Throwawaygarbage1010 Avatar

    Probably a 7. I get told I’m good looking but I know I don’t even come close to a 10. I’m also a harsh grader. I don’t think I particularly stand out in a crowd of dudes.

  96. Asa-Ryder Avatar

    Solid 5. Wife thinks I’m an 8. Most say 7-9. I think they are all FOS.

  97. Infectious_Anarchy Avatar

    About a 2.5…. out of 20

  98. dantoris Avatar

    On my absolute best day I think I’m a decent 5. On an average day more like a 3.

    And I guess I come across as still a bit youthful despite now pushing my late-40s. When I started my current job in 2021 I was 42 but regularly mistaken by co-workers for being early- to mid-20s. Even recently a newer co-worker guessed my age as being 25/26 and was shocked that I’m actually 46.

    So I guess I have that going for me, although I’d happily trade it for having an actual handsome appearance.

  99. Eon_Breaker_ Avatar

    Like a 5 I guess? I don’t think I’m hideous but nobody has ever found me attractive

  103. dread-throwaway Avatar

    3/10. I am really short so I look young but facially my face looks old. I only got compliments on my sneakers and it was my old ones I wore for work once. Other than that I never get clothing compliments (sometimes judgement from it though)

  104. reignoferror00 Avatar

    I look younger than my age, but not as much as before.

    Only compliment on my clothing In recent years is when I wore my Charlie Brown zig-zag shirt.

    I’m maybe a 6 out of 10 in looks on a good day, but if you include personality, charisma, and morals I’m a solid 2.

  105. AirmanSniffles Avatar

    I’m a solid 4.5, but at Walmart I am a fuckin’ 9 all day

  107. Trancetastic16 Avatar

    5/10, average faced, average height; but on the lowest end of that average, due to being of a low income reflecting some of my health issues including some facial and body acne, somewhat faster aged skin, moderately yellow and sometimes slightly blackened teeth and receded gums, tired eyes, and borderline overweight to obese.

    But I am a non-smoker and do my best to practice my skincare, dental hygiene, eat healthy, exercise and am in good health otherwise, and dress well in new, clean, well-fitted clothing in my personal fashionable style that also helps me stand-out and I do receive occasional compliments for it.

    At 26 I most likely look a little older than someone my age or someone my age with a few unhealthy lifestyle practices and culturally rare fashion style who tries to have a politely curious neutral expression.

    IDK how I’d rate myself, but I’ve had a ton of my colleagues tell me I look young for my age. I’m 35, but they’ve told me that I appear as if I’m in my early-to-mid 20s. It helps that I follow a skincare regimen and that I’m in-shape. Frustratingly, though, this hasn’t translated to much success on the dating apps over the years.

    Looks are subjective tbh, to plenty of people im an 8 but to others i could be a 2. I definitely feel like im an 8 though, i think im pretty 💁‍♀️

  115. Mineturtle1738 Avatar

    I’d say I’m probably around a 6 to a 7.
    I’ve been told I was attractive(hot,cute whatever) by some girls (but I didn’t find them attractive) but I also don’t get too many likes in dating apps…

    I could probably boost myself up to an 8 if I went to the gym more and ate healthier/less.
