What percentage of guys are really good looking?

what percentage of guys do you consider really good looking like 10% or 1%

Think it varies based on culture.

Here in Japan, I think a decent number of the male population would qualify as good-looking to a good number of females (say 5-10%), enough to be professional hosts with women paying good money to spend time with them. That said, all a guy needs typically to look appealing in this way is some poofy haircut, a slim build, and a certain type of outfit, maybe a decent face.

In cultures that worship like the tall, dark, and handsome guy who is totally jacked, maybe 1% or less.

I think the U. S. is the cruelest in this regard because the average male and female there are overweight and out of shape. The average female, for example, is 5'4 and ~166.5 lbs. Yet simultaneously, some of the fittest people live in the U. S., albeit being an extremely small minority, and they are often worshiped as the ideal. They're also a powerhouse in the Olympics, for example.

When we have this type of contrast where the average person is overweight while the country simultaneously has these super fit people (albeit an incredibly small minority) who are glorified, then only a very, very small range of the population is going to be considered very attractive by most.

With Japan you got a population of people who are mostly in good shape, not amazing shape. The average here is someone in decent shape, eats a relatively healthy diet, and exercises moderately on a daily basis. As a result there isn't that big of a difference between 'average' and 'ideal', the two are very close together, and so a lot of people fit into the idea of 'ideal'.

don't worry according to research 90% of guys are below average in looks

[dewaldt]

I think that is a bit of. Could it be possible that the research was done on models and celibrities.

[littleheartbigbooty]

I'd have to see all the guys in the world to answer this

[Asker]

science has shown girls find 90% of guys below average so maybe 5% is average 2% good looking 0.5% really good looking like from your experience such as school what percentage is really good looking

[littleheartbigbooty]

Really good looking probably around 0.5-1%

[Asker]

oh sweet so only 1 in 100-200 are really good looking would this be considered an 8 or 9/10?

[littleheartbigbooty]

9/10 is really good looking, like borderline perfect
If you count the good looking ones, so like 8s, I'd say around 5%
