I admit to not reading the article. But if the median rating was not a 5.0, then they need some help in their rating skills.

misogyny

You keep using that word ... I don't think it means what you think it means.

I remember my first week at college. Several sororities lined their members along busy venues on campus and held up signs rating young men from 0 to 10. It was all in good fun. It was a different country 45 years ago!

Question:

Was list and rating metrics hosted on a school server?

We need to see the pictures and ratings to determine if they were fair.

This is ridiculous. The best you can hope to achieve is 0.1%.

It could be a Poisson distribution.

Some girls came and talked to me in the library once in high school. Now I realize they were probably just updating the rating system and I was the last boy to be contacted.

This looks like an excellent opportunity to teach about significant digits. Never by pass a teachable moment.

The illusion of precision is that these girls would date boys who worry about the hundredths place.

I think you are on the wrong thread. Where is the cornrow?

In our memories. You have to be a certain age.

I truly feel sad for this generation. After 8 years old they should be roaming the neighborhoods in feral packs climbing trees, building forts, exploring wooded areas, playing football, and basically creating games, using their imaginations and learning how to interact with people, solve problems and resolve conflicts while getting ample excercise all without structure or helicopter adults. As they get older their range and complexity expands. They should however be able to get into “trouble” and “hijinks” without police and psychologists involved. I feel this helicoptering absolutely retards their development and is why we are crawling with SJWs today. And I do not in any way believe it is more dangerous now...hell a parent can know exactly where his kid is at all times and how fast and what direction they are traveling with a watch. I was 8 years old in the mid 70s in the los angeles area, and I simply had to be home by dinner or dark whichever came first.

Search for and attraction to beauty is not a cultural anything, although culture may modify what characteristics constitute to a small degree.

It is one of those innate biological drives which socialism is predicated upon denying.

If girls or women cannot be “rated” or assessed on their looks, then they should ban cosmetic surgery....including face, boobs, butt, etc. Hypocrisy.

Don’t flaunt your body, either.

I know: let these girls opt to be orthodox Jews or Muslims and dress accordingly.

And this goes for the gay guys and trannies, as well.

Hypocrites.

There were girls rating guys in my junior high days, and they do it all the way through university.

On Bo Derek's head. Hot as she was (still is), that hairdo was an instant turnoff.

When I kept book for the girls basketball team the guys at the scorers bench used to pick an all prom queen team every game. Oh the humanity.

“We want to know what the school is doing to ensure our safety and security,” Schmidt said. “We should be able to learn in an environment without the constant presence of objectification and misogyny.”

Nothing! might I suggest you try Modesty and Virtue as Standards instead and remember, The more you act like a lady the more they will act like gentlemen.
