The Dark Triad
'Nice guys always lose' A common quote typed out on a crusty iPhone 4 after a boy just got rejected by his first girl. In his desperate attempts to make her like him he pulled out every trick in the book; Compliments, Buying her things, Always respecting her and being a borderline suck up. 'Maybe she's just not ready for a relationship?' He thought to himself, except later that same week he would see her going crazy for a washed up narcissistic drug dealer who has zero future 'Why him?' he thought, so the boy goes home to research this. The results come up the same, nothing; Until he stumbles across the Dark Triad.
What is the Dark Triad?
'
Best outlined by the image here, the Dark Triad consists of three main points; Narcissism: 'selfishness, involving a sense of entitlement, a lack of empathy, and a need for admiration, as characterizing a personality type', Psychopathy: 'Psychopathy, or psychopathic personality is a personality construct characterized by impaired empathy and remorse, and bold, disinhibited and egocentric traits, masked by superficial charm and the outward appearance of apparent normalcy' and Machiavellianism: Someone with a Machiavellian personality may display the following traits:5. Focusing only on their own goals and interests. Prioritizing success, power, money, and fame above all else. Manipulating or exploiting others for their own gain. These three traits are building blocks for someone who posses the Dark Triad.
Why do women find the Dark Triad attractive?
When surveyed 128 female students from a British university expressed in almost unison that men who posses high DT traits were more; Assertive, Confident, Dominant and Charming. All of these traits helped ultimately boost the masculine attractiveness of men who posses these traits. Studies have also shown that men who posses DT traits have been more successful in finding a mate for the bedroom, likely due to their increased ability to project their confidence and assertiveness onto others. The features of which the DT allows men to project can be seen as extremely masculine and the perfect contrast to the submissive nature of femininity.
Understanding the Dark Triad.
As much as the Dark Triad can BOOST the overall attractiveness of a male, one must first be conventionally attractive. The image below depicts how different characteristics relating to the Dark Triad can be seen based on the persons physical appearance.
Despite the fact that they are both displaying the same behavior many will see the man on the right as a 'red flag' and the other as a 'green flag' looks do play a key factor in how people see the elements of your personality. 'Looks ARE everything'
Facial features relating to the Dark Triad.
'His face was pure evil' The words of one of Richard Ramirez's survivors when interviewed by Netflix. Despite the fact that the Dark Triad is a Phycological endeavor many studies have shown that their are some facial features which can relate to the Dark Triad. The study I am presenting below took a group of around 200 participants and made them take a personality quiz which was used to detect Dark Triad traits. From this the bottom ten and top ten from each trait had their faces photographed and combined to create this image displayed below.
After this image had been created and was shown to a group of observers (64% of which were female) In order to determine what face appeared the most sinister. Once the test had been concluded the results indicated that the answers were not random with the majority agreeing upon the same few sets of faces. The test concluded that personality is first judged by the appearance of the person. 'Personality is all that matters, stop coping'
Conclusion.
The Dark Triad is an extremely important aspect in terms of overall attractiveness of a male, many women prefer men who are high in these features due to their correlation with stereotypical masculine traits. The Dark Triad isn't always a good thing however, first you must be conventionally attractive otherwise the DT traits can be seen as red flags to many women. Personalitymaxxing is a cope, however the Dark Triad IS the answer.
'Regardless of personality a person is judged first by their looks'
