65. And I just explained the man chose a racist attack for his title. What part of that confuses you?

Edit. Oh, Jesus. Did YOU read it? The guy just leaps from a 1-5 rating from unspecified "interview" subjects to a conclusion that he can determine the "latent physical attractiveness factor" of black women.

It doesn't even pass cursory logical analysis. He just posits subjective responses as fact. No allowance for anything. Culture, race, age. Just concludes that interview results = "objective beauty."

It's bullshit on its face.
