Occasionally when I'm feeling crappy i'll walk down some random street and look at each person i pass (regardless of gender, age, etc.) and decide, being my most brutally honest, whether that person is less or more attractive than me and keep a mental tally. I'm always surprised to find the former group is usually much larger than the latter. Anyone else do this?

I remember some thread almost 10 years or so ago where I mentioned that I did this and got a negative reaction. Can't find the thread though.

i don't do this. looking at the mind from the sort of david hume lense i would say that the attractiveness of a person is something i perceive as an impression, but i don't really make an idea out of that impression unless there's some reason to - i.e. person being a viable possible sexual/romantic partner
