Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Isn't this like, High School level stuff? Yeah, a guy might go after you because he thinks you aren't in demand like that. He doesn't have to be super interested, but you're available so he makes efforts towards you.
I think there's a difference between being ugly and guys kinda being divided on your looks. I think ugly connotates that most men, in general, don't find you attractive. This kinda implies that these "ugly" women still get a fair amount of attention because of their looks.
I guess to summarize my thoughts, this phenomenon probably works best if you're still attractive to some degree. Like a 5/6 and up, I don't see this being very valid for conventionally unattractive people.
EDIT: Then there's a cultural context that could be added. People tend to be attracted as to what is common amongst their own ethnicity. So how many people are ACTUALLY ugly and how many just look too "ethnic" for certain peoples?
I think this is the article he was using as a reference.

I guess it's worked for me, despite my weight.
