I guess some people are into the hey, boomer angle, and those interviews are straightforward.
But in some cases, it does feel like there is this tidal wave of stuff that, yeah, I'm having to push back against.
It's a little bit daunting, but it's kind of exciting too.
I'm a scientist and the most boring kind of science is where you're making a claim, but you're not really pushing back against anything.
Nobody's ever argued the opposite.
So there is something exciting about pushing back against something that is out there and that is big and that it's a little bit right, but it's also like mostly wrong and gross.
Mostly wrong.
The point that I always want to make, I will agree with that sentiment and point out that for these things to be true, it really relies on this thing we call consensus, is people have to agree that people possess a certain thing.
And when we think about attractiveness, we think, obviously, like we agree about who's attractive and who's not.
It's just right there.
You can see it on their face.
But when you look at the studies, when you look at the science,
Consensus is not as powerful as we think.
I like to start with first impression context.
If we had to make a judgment about whether this guy in front of us here was hot or not, or this woman in front of us was hot or not, and we'd never met her, we'd agree like 65% of the time.
That's it?
I'm surprised because you remember the website, Hot or Not?
Remember that?
Yes, I was a happy user of that website.
I do remember.
