im not sure how that Meth Head Mugshot caught on as the token "5". No way in hell is that greasy looking street urchin "average".
Copied from post #177...5: Average. starting to be unattractive, but certain qualities work in her favor. Nothing major, but minor problems are more common
- Average: Check...she's just there, nothing special about her but nothing overly terrible about her either. If you saw her walking down the street she'd just more or less be invisible.
- Starting to be unattractive: Check...pack on 15lbs and she's down a point. Hand her over to a stylist/salon to give her a makeover with hair and makeup and she's up a point.
- But, certain qualities work in her favor: Check...thin, decent hair, eyebrows manicured, decent complexion
- Nothing major, but minor problems are more common: Check...squarish jaw/chin, ears too large, thin lips

Again, remember what the true meaning of "average" is....it's not meant to be the average of the entire female population. The word is in relation to the "middle point" between a 1 and a 10 (specific to the scale definitions)
Also, keep in mind that a "5" is not truly in the middle of a 1 and 10, which is why a 5 is skewing more towards being ugly than being hot.
- A 5 is four steps away from being a 1 (only 4, 3 and 2 separating)
- A 5 is five steps away from being a 10 (has 6, 7, 8 and 9 separating)
In all reality a 5.5 is truly right in the middle of a 1 and a 10 since there is no "zero"
