The Hotness Scale
I like to think that there is a "hotness scale." This hotness scale is not simply set, it fluctuates depending on what you are wearing/how your hair looks/how you are feeling. Now, I just got my hair cut, this hair cut seemed to get me out of the funk I was in yesterday and I hopefully look just a tad better. Now, with all of this factored in, I think I jumped up one on the hotness scale. But, here is the question.....how high can you jump with changes? Can I max out at a 7? Or can you always improve?
I think you max out.
Now, if 2 guys were to look at me at the same time.....would they both give me the same number? Would a guy higher on the guy-hotness scale give me a lower scale score?
Now, you are all wondering "what the heck brought this on?" A conversation with a friend, we are weird like that. We were wondering if one figure feature is better to have than another. Is it better to have boobs or butt? Should a guy have nice arms or a six pack? I know my answer, but can one feature really be better and make you rank higher?
What about dating above or below your rank? Truly, how often do you see it happen? I guess you can. I heard on the radio that you can date either 3 up or 3 down on a 10 point scale. So, if you are a 7 you can date a 10 or a 5. Humm, maybe that was a 2 point jump....2 points up or 2 points down. I can't remember now.
How much does this scale matter? I think it matters a lot more than people want to admit. Everyone knows that first impressions are important. This ranking is just a part of that first impression.
Then again, can you change your number?
This is kind of intersting, I guess I am open for comments.

Hey! Yay, you are a blogger now! Cool that you and Josh share one. I am that friend you had taht crazy conversation with...and I agree that there is a hotness scale. I totally think you can date outside your rank. I think that personality should over ride the hotness scale. ohhh another point...there should be a personality scale too! Just a thought...let me know you opinion!
I loves you! Can't wait to have lunch with you tomorrow...and introduce you to my brother's room mate...maybe he'll have his surf board?! YES!!!!
Dreaming of that River.....
Love,

Oh yeah, the personality scale is very important. But that plays more of a part in the long run...or at least it isn't part of the very first impression. Generally, you see someone before you talk to them. Maybe if there was some way to reverse this we would all be better off.
Well, first off, I agree that you max out. I mean if everyone could improve, wouldn't they? And if you couldn't max out wouldn't everyon eventually reach the highest number? And there really aren't that many "10s" out there...
A guy that is higher in rank would probably give you a lower number. It's kinda just the way of the world. Hotter guys have hotter standards.
I don't think there is a set figure feature to have. I mean, sure, guys want boobs and butts but every guy is different and likes different aspects of girls. JD thinks big boobs are nice to look at but likes mine better (don't ask).
And dating above/below rank? I think I'm dating above right now but JD would disagree. But I think most couples are at about the same level. I mean girls wouldn't want to date guys hotter than them (it would make them feel bad) and no guy with a penis is going to want to date a girl lower than a hotter girl he could get...well, unless he has an incredible personality and cares more about that. And those are few and far between.
Nice to hear from you, Emily. Josh's blogs get kinda...boring..and I don't usually comment!
First of all, thanks for reading this blog and commenting!
But here is the next question: How do you figure out your own hotness ranking? You can't judge yourself very well. If you ask a friend they are just gonna lie and atleast give you a 7 (out of 10). Unless you have a dog for a boyfriend (or girlfriend), they are gonna give you a 10. How does one figure out that they are an 8 so there is no reason to date below a 6? Or, how do you determine that someone is too hot for you?
Ranking yourself is difficult and takes self-confidence.
