      hmm /why/ should this result in horror? aversion to making relative status explicit? compare eg public test score rankings? but beauty is even more verboten i bet existence of beauty contests suggests its about protecting low scorers rather than limiting power at tophttps://twitter.com/schmidtsam7/status/1110948962306084866 …

      I have been stunned at the reactions to this story. So many readers have said they remembered similar lists at their schools and workplaces, created by both men AND women. https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2019/03/26/teen-boys-rated-their-female-classmates-based-looks-girls-fought-back/?tid=ss_tw&utm_term=.377ddbbc7a98 …

      maybe something about dignity culture that chafes at this chivalric literature is full of knights murdering each other to defend the claim that this or that maiden is the most beautiful right? even gimli and legolas almost have it out over thishttps://twitter.com/RummaTumTums/status/1110958894577266688?s=19 …

      I agree with @peixianw and @pthagnar here, but for me, it's just about objectification, and that we shouldn't. I might actually be predisposed to liking someone who is pretty because biology is dumb, but that doesn't mean that they have more inherent value than someone else.

          i think get out obliquely touches on this too, the dehumanization of quantification. i think the horror is making implicit explicit and probably the reduction to a comparative statistic, which is also something youre supposed to pretend isnt happening all the timepic.twitter.com/k3M54dcbDb

          I see a vague corollary between "I fancy this person and would like to court her at another's expense" and "Here is a list of the women worth courting," but I don't think it's strong enough for that analogy.
