So we two reasonable people (giving you the benefit of the doubt here) disagree (can you believe it?!? What are the chances?). No big whoop.

You can whoop it up all you like. But I guess the problem lies in your inability to properly classify.
I would say you shouldn't use "good looking" and "ugly" because I won't put someone in the good looking category if they aren't (hold your breath) good looking. I think you think that way of ugly people. But it's no surprise that you're nicer than I (hmmm. That sounds right, but I still want to say "nicer than me"). You need a third category.
It's gotta be "attractive" vs. "unattractive" or maybe "not attractive." I don't think we're really arguing here, but either you're attractive or you aren't. And if you look at it that way, I doubt your numbers would be the same.
