> I'm currently traveling a lot and in daily life I see a huge difference to how people treat you when attractive. In The Netherlands I'm at best average in attractiveness (I've asked for brutal feedback from multiple people, and I'm averaging 6 out of 10). However, in other countries I'm seen as slightly more attractive because I'm about 190 cm, which is 6.23 feet/inches (whatever you Americans use).
Thank you for an interesting self-assessment. While you're closer to the the average reported height there, I would think that height, as a desirable trait tops out at around 6'7" (~200cm) as back problems or bumping into doorframes becomes more likely.
And given what you've said about yourself, what height, build, and features are considered attractive in the Netherlands? Any notable differences between the men and women there in traits they find desirable whether stated or actual? What about along the along the lines of age groups and marital status (i.e. single, in a relationship, married, divorced)?
Who would be a common example of the "societally attractive" 10/10 in the Netherlands?
What emotional traits are considered desirable(e.g. stoic, relaxed, agressive, etc.)?
How "loose" are the people in Amsterdam? Popular culture stateside exaggerates it out to be a libertine utopia with an unlimited supply of sex drugs, but from what I've read through first- and second-hand accounts, many of them tend to be "shy" (at least relative to Americans) or "friendly, but reserved".
