Vox posted on sigma game his version of… a FSSH, I think?
It’s uncharacteristically fuzzy, for one, and doesn’t predict female behaviour other than in the very largest macro-cosmic sense, which, anyone who has dealt with enough women in a dating/relationship context will know is really not that helpful in day-to-day or even week-to-week predictive models.
He states it as follows:
This was written back in 2010 in response to an article on a now-defunct women’s blog, but it remains as valid today as it was then. It is also more reliably predictive of female behavior than the various forms of a female SSH thus far proposed.
To which, I can only say that, no, it does not. And that my own version with the addendum of the Hub/Wheel part Vox helpfully added from a female reader remains a far superior predictor of female behaviour both day to day as well as long term.
But in any case, he explains that this version he presents is for… (emphasis added)
Now, we already know that men place a high value on female beauty, so if we take into account that sexual loyalty also matters a great deal to them as well as how a woman’s sexual history serves as a practical proxy for that otherwise indeterminable loyalty, we can construct a scale that should reliably describe a woman’s socio-sexual attractiveness to men.
But frankly, no man needs a scale to tell him how attracted he is or should be to any given woman. And there are plenty of simp-types that would still put a leash on and be dragged around by an ex-porn star. Nor is this predictive of anything other than very broadly speaking what a woman may behave like in general terms at her current social level in a “normal” context. It’s little better than an anaologous economic predictor of female behaviour saying rich women will shop more often for clothes and accessories than poor women.
That “general terms” needs to be stressed because pretty much almost any woman is susceptible to a “moment of madness” where they may act very inappropriately and even against character, either specific to a situation or with a certain type of man in a given context. I would put that at definitely over 90% for all women on planet Earth. And I think I am being kind saying 10% of them would likely not fall prey to it. And that percentage drops to probably less than 5% if you consider the ages between 18-29 or so. And while yes, most human beings can act unpredictably if the right conditions are aligned just so, that “alignment” for men is a couple of orders of magnitudes more stringent than for women.
So while a “trend” of slutty to chaste can be observed, the presented scale does next to nothing in predicting how a woman will react in any given circumstance. And in any case the broad “category” was already described in my FSSH, being that overall trends are just that, broad categories of “most likely” behaviour, but can turn on a dime when you change the situational circumstances, and more so for the more attractive women.
Perhaps I am mistaken and a large number of men need a “FSSH” that tells them how attractive a woman is, or should be, to them, based on her broad category of general sexual behaviour paired with her attractiveness on a 1-10 scale, but I really doubt it, and certainly, the scores of emails and messages I get from young men, tells me with absolute certainty that what they want and need is a way to predict what a woman will do, both in the immediate future, as well as the intermediate future. And thus get a sense of what her long term activities too, are likely to be; though these are mostly hidden to the mists of time the further out you go.
In any case, this is not about who has the better model, and thus is the cooler double colt .45 wielding Sigma hanging upside down from a helicopter. As far as I am concerned, the point of a FSSH is to help men in general to be better able to predict female behaviour, and as I stated before, a parallel to the MSSH is not really possible on the same terms and basis that Vox’s MSSH works. Vox’s MSSH is a very good predictor of male behaviour, but predicting female behaviour necessarily requires a different approach or perspective, as they do not function in hierarchies that are parallel to male ones, and secondly, their hierarchies shift with a facility and dynamism that is simply not found in male hierarchies. Until I come across a better model, I remain sure that my version remains the best predictor to dat. The added wheel/hub perspective is also helpful but one must keep in mind that it originated with a woman, so… buyer beware, as they say.
