  1. self esteem issues.


  2. because otherwise people would just say you look good or you look bad and they wouldnt know how good or how bad

  3. It's the favorite past time of shallow people.  

  4. Because they are insecure and actually care about what others think.

    lol @ them.  

  5. They are pathetic and insecure.

  6. Because they need attention

  7. because they only care about themselves :(

  8. Maybe because soemone really hurt them by saying that they are ugly or sumthin and they need a boost from peeps they dont know? Dont take it against them, I used to need that boost when I was flatchested with braces and glasses. Now Ima C cup, a lingerie model, have 20/20 vision and perfect teeth! SMile! lol

  9. they are pathetic and want to be called ugly.

  10. Because beauty can be calculated numerically.

  11. they need the attention.  Its a ranking system!  Like what our school teaches.  Some people dont understand the social politics.  

  12. they are insecure about there looks

  13. they are insecure and want others to try and cheer them up.

  14. well, I guess for self confidence.  A lot of people feel they are unattractive and even if they are good looking the self confidence might scare away the opposite s*x and make them feel even more unattractive.  So, I think that if they need other people to tell them that they are a 8 or a 3, they can either do something to make it better or feel good and get more dates.  

  15. A generation ago there was a movie with Bo Derrek, and it was called "10". The concept of the movie was that she was perfect and unattainable. From there, pop culture started using 10 as the benchmark for perfection, and then men and women started rating each other on that scale.  "She's a 10"  "He's a 5".   It may have been used before then (perhaps the entimology of the title) however, it wasn't popular until 1979...

  16. most people just want to know where they stand compared to their peers or in the public eye...

  17. because those people cant make it to the scale of eleven thats why they why they stick to ten!  

  18. I don't really see anything wrong with that. Some are just curious to see what others think of them. Most people want to see how good they look to others that do not know them as friends or buddies, therefore removing the bias.

  19. it's an ego booster

  20. Who knows..
