I'm very curious as to how highly the majority would rate themselves. Self-concept fascinates me in general, but it would seem both awkward and difficult to have an open discussion about how one thinks of their looks. This poll allows for honesty, as it's completely anonymous. Posting isn't necessary.
How would you rate your physical appearance on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the highest)?

The mere-exposure effect will come in to play. The more you see something, the more it will appeal to you. You look in the mirror every day. You perceive yourself more attractive than others do. Of course, there are exceptions to every rule.

I'm content with how I look.
I'm not the hottest guy in the world, but I don't think I'm the ugliest either.

I don't think anyone looks in the mirror for an extended period of time any given day (except quite literal narcissists). Certainly not more than half an hour at a time.
While I definitely do see other people for more than that per day.
I really can't tell how attractive I look, or other guys for that matter. It's unfair D:
So I must go by what others say, knowing that those who actually do say something might be biased toward the high end.

I think it's somewhere around 7/8. I like to think of myself as a kinda pretty guy.

I don't really think of myself as ugly, but I'm no supermodel. I used to think I was pretty bad, but people actually kept telling me otherwise, so that boosted my confidence.

I don't have a mirror, and I haven't looked at myself in one for over at least 3 years.
I do have a self-consciousness about my appearance but it could be improved when I put effort into it, so I wouldn't go for lower than 4.
EDIT: I know someone who would pick the '5' in a heartbeat though. xP

I picked 8. I'm actually 'fit' for my age, though I don't have bulging muscles like most guys that plays sports and body-build every day. I've also received complements on 'how' I look and dressed in public, online, etc. I don't like to think of myself as high 'up there' or some crap though, I know a hella lot of guys that looks better than me, waaaay better. I barely have a 6 pack-abs.. 'barely'. But I try to stay fit because it's healthy, that and it impresses the ladies~.
