How would you rate your looks?

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.

Actually...
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.
