Named after Julie Bindel's infamous "put men in concentration camps" quote. Similar to the Streisand Effect, this is the name for when a shithead SJW says something that makes them sound like a psycho or asshole, then claims it was a joke or removes it from the internet to cover their saggy ass after receiving backlash from everyone who isn't a dick. It is prominent with certain types of nut-jobs as well, but for different reasons.

Get the The Perkins Effect mug.The country girl effect states that when a hot girl from the country moves into the city, and is unaware of just how attractive she is, she may be prone to dating males of significantly less attractiveness.
Some studies (read: me guessing) suggest that after the move to the city, the hot country girl assumes that few people talk to her because of any reason but the actual one: shes really hot and thus intimidating.
Also, the effect consistently makes the country girl's values significantly different than her urban-dwelling counterparts; the country girl tends to care less about appearances and more about other things. What is found attractive may be different than what you may be accustomed to when dealing with urban girls.
Guys that bank on their personality: rejoice. The country girl effect is absolute law. Catch them before they find out they're hot!

Get the Country Girl Effect mug.A fabricated term coined by the AAMC to explain an "increase" in medical school applications in 2020 when in reality 1) Completed medical school applications didn't increase 2) A recession prompted increase in higher education 3) The AAMC caused families to get COVID-19 by refusing to waive the MCAT or administer it virtually. So damage control.
The AAMC made up the Fauci Effect so students can take the MCAT and get on a ventilator a week later!

Usual signals of the PES Effect include:
Pschic powers of opponents to read your mind
Telekinetic powers of opponents to make every bounce go their way
Powers of teleportaion so that whenever you do get a lucky break, they are there to steal the ball
The inability of your players to pass
The absolute certainty that when you do get a chance on goal, your centre back who can't hit a barn door is there to take the shot
The internet packing up as you try to write this kind of rant
It usually results in turning the difficulty down to one star and giving the computer a good thrashing "to show it who's boss"; hitting anyone/anything within reach or assaulting anything within throwing distance with a playstation controller
It can also happen in many everyday situations such as during brain surgery, when you drop your scalpel into the patient's head and trip on a bit of brain on the floor at the same time. Then, after you retrieve the scalpel from the cranial cavity...they die; this results in you throwing the scalpel/the patient at any nearby nurses proclaiming "you did your best"
