The 1 - 4 scale was devised by several brilliant minds who grew increasingly frustrated with the inherent subjectivity of rating women on a 1-10 scale of fuckability. Hence, the 1 - 4 scale was created to avoid the dubious, yet frequent dilemma of distinguishing between a "9" an 8.4" a "3.4" etc. The
genius of the 1 -4 scale is that it employs a categorical, objective system generally agreed upon by most
heterosexual males (and lipstick lesbians, not the
butch ones).
Without further ado, here is the breakdown of categories:
A "1": This category is designated for females who you un-mistakenably, undoubtedly, and unabashedly would not have sex with, even in your most inebriated, depressed and
lonely state. The "1" is generally characterized by the lethal combination of an ugly face, extreme obesity and very low self-confidence.
The "2":
This category is interesting because a lot more variables come into play here. The "2" is agreed upon to be generally unattractive however due to a variety of circumstances (i.e. shes a butter face, decent face with a fat body, or you have a fetish for 14 year old Malaysian prostitutes), you
will have sex with her if you are
drunk enough. The key here is that nobody finds out. You make sure you keep this
one to yourself.
The "3":
Simultaneously the easiest, yet most problematic category to define. The "3", very broadly put, is a legitimately attractive
female who you would unashamedly have sex with. The "3" is worthy of bragging rights, perhaps even girlfriend material, if you'
re a pussy like that. This is probably the best you'
re going to ever do.
the "4":
The "4" is distinct and should not be thrown around lightly. To put it in the words of one of the founding fathers of the 1-4 scale, "this girl is so
hot, you would kill your own mother and piss on her grave just to smell this girl's shit." While killing is a little extreme (given the nature of our court system and their increasing willingness to play the "hard line" on parent killings), it puts into context the magnitude of what the "4" represents. This girl is so out of your league, you avoid eye contact at all costs. "4's" represent under 1% of the
female population, and you most likely
will never insert your penis in
one.
Me: "Hey
dude, how did last night go?"
Roommate: "Not bad, brought a girl home"
Me: "Nice. She a 3?"
Roommate: "No, i'd say like a 7/10"
Me: "Listen
cock-smoker, the 1-10 scale is for fucking amateurs, what is she on the 1 - 4 scale we discussed?"
Roommate: "Oh..I'd say
mid-to-high 2ish"
Me: "werd"
