Good-looking female students no longer get straight A’s when classes become virtual

Can't fuck the teacher over Zoom either, eh?
Actually I've heard of a few teachers getting their students OFs offered to them for grades.
I'd guess swapping nudes for grades is still happening, just no more blowing the teacher during office hours.
Sure, but it's a lot more risky when it's potentially leaving a paper trail.
What a weird, non-neutral way they chose to word this.
How about using their lingo and say "male students don't seem to benefit from attractive privilege, so the attractive male students' grades were unchanged".
Reminds me of the feminist study in which the data boils down to "good looking men, bad looking men and bad looking women are all treated the same for hiring at jobs, but attractive women benefit from better treatment than men in general and less-attractive women".
The feminist researchers conclusion? "Women are teh victimz of mysoginy!"
No retards : pretty women benefit from better treatment over all men and ugly women.
In general good looks correlate with the potential for being smart and hard working; "a beautiful mind" plus being fit means more energy, resilience and so on.
In men even the most superman-type is judged on merit for most of their life so they learn how to reason and how to work. Men being attractive and fit correlates directly to merit because in men being attractive is a sign of actually having more innate potential.
In women the more attractive the lower the bar for everything else, so they never learn to maximize their potential. So attractiveness in women correlates to wasted potential. This is why as a rule the funnier a female comedian is the uglier she is; the attractive ones had more innate potential to be funny but never needed to develop it.
So you're right, the attractive male students didn't have "attractive privilege", they were on average actually scoring better on merit than ugly men.
Also until recently, most companies management were full of straight men, straight men don't give a shit about how good looking fellow men are beyond good initial impressions unless it's jobs like sales and pr where they need good looking and personable people to represent the company
Also hospitality…
But in that case, it’s usually “Pretty girls to the front, everyone else out back” 🤷🏻♂️
I’ve seen this abused to pretty bad effect, in that industry, a number of times…
But also, fuck hospitality, so…
What you've hit on is that even the ugliest woman still has some small amount of attractiveness whereas guys can go negative (0..10 vs -5..5). Not a single one of them lives up to their innate potential unless it's like in wartime or something.
Even the ugly ones have too much attractive privilege to suffer living in their car for years, getting heckled constantly, while they develop timing and other skills. But they at least try for a few weeks.
It's a subtle admission that phrenology is real. Attractive women benefit from attracting in males. Attractive men benefit from having a better sense of control and intellect. Everybody knows it's real, they just refuse to admit how real it is.
They said the reverse is true with guys, good looking guys continue to get good grades.
Curious how they decided who was good looking with guys though.
When Okcupid did their survey years ago, the most disturbing thing was that women routinely rated men as less attractive than average.
Dunno. At this point, I imagine the inside of most women's heads as being a mass of spaghetti code and shitty RNG generators.
Women rate 80% of men as "below average". Because lol.
The average is Chad, everyone below that is a subhuman
One of their main criteria is height.
At 6'2", women routinely tell me that I am "average height".
The same goes for $$$.
Short men don't exist.
Those are service goblins.
As a fellow tall-ish guy, who is not rich…
I can assure you, height doesn’t help me much, lol…
But maybe that’s just me.
Don't want to be mean but you regularily tell us that you're chronically unhappy and down. That might really offset any height-advantage.
The article does not contain the most important information, which is what courses were studied, and if the test evaluation required objective knowledge or was subjectively judged by the teacher.
If grades are based on evaluating an essay, then the most likely explanation is bias from the teacher. If grades are objectively determined then there is likely a more complex social dynamic going on such as getting more individual instruction or social encouragement or something.

beauty premium disappeared for women but not men in remote courses
I didn't read this article, so maybe this is in there, but the study it's referring to suggests that attractive males use their advantage to build support networks, hone leadership skills, and generally build themselves up while attractive females do absolutely nothing with their advantage. Obviously, just an untested hypothesis, but pretty funny.
No male managers are willing to network and mentor decent looking women after the me too era
THOTs meeting reality is always good entertainment.
It's no shock to find out that attractive people have persistent and wide-ranging benefits in most areas in life that normal people don't have, but it is nice to have some evidence. As virtual worlds become more likely (eventually it will be very similar to Ready Player 1), we will see less of this discrimination due to humans being able to pick idealized avatars to represent themselves online.
Ready Player One is literally a dystopia, where people live in slums and are worked to death…
It is not a future we want to build towards.
Come off it, lol.
What, you think we haven't been heading in that direction for roughly 40 years already? Have you MET many humans? As soon as the microchip was invented, it was all over for us. We just have to follow the natural progression to get to the part where we all just lie down and die.
Yeah, anecdotally, this is fairly easy to observe, lol…
And then listen to them complain when the marks come out, as a result!!
Shock. Most women would be getting failing grades if it wasn't for simp teachers and in-group bias from the female ones.
