Chad in my third year of a physics degree here. Why are there

When you spend 16 hours a day on schoolwork, you don't have time to maintain a wavy hairstyle, continually buy the trendiest new electronics or bleach your asshole.
What you do have time for, however, is to not eat. Which leaves me wondering why so many science and engineering professors are so fat.

That isn't the reason at all. STEM people are just genetically unattractive - they have ugly faces and ugly bodies.

It's a few things. It's difficult and dry; most people who just want money and are willing to tolerate difficult and dry studies can just go into business and get similar money. Most people would rather study something easier and use networking to get a job (le stem meme really is just that - you can get a job with anything if you network competently) and/or study something that stimulates their sense for empathy and the human condition (the humanities and social sciences just talk to most people's experience of being alive much more directly and concretely than STEM). All of this means it selects for people people who are nerds with poor social skills, who are less likely to be attractive because being attractive makes it less likely that you'll be asocial.

Because only inferior people fall for the STEM meme. Ever wonder why they talk shit about advanced topics they can't understand (Art, Philosophy, ect.)

Ugly people can't use their looks to get ahead in life

Where are you studying? I did my physics degree and the people were average to good looking.

>first week of classes
>look around the room and I'm one of the most attractive guys in the class
Feels good being a Chad

>>25965483
what college you go to OP?

>tfw everyone here who is also studying physics is super attractive

I made eye contact with a qt guy who looked like he could have been a robot but it went nowhere

>>25965483
I'm am ugly math major. I like math because if your proof is right then you're right. Whether people like looking at you doesn't matter.

>>25965591
you shouldn't be spending 16 hours a day on schoolwork if you're actually good at what you study lol

>>25966044
How do I get better at writing proofs. I'm only good at mechanical shit, like calc

>>25966073
I used to spend eight hours a day. I think I sucked

They don't get a free ride for being attractive and have to develop a skill that provides value in order to get by.

>>25966073
spotted the arts student

in more math-based STEM fields you can't just brute-force the material, you have to put your effort into understanding it. I never spend time memorizing formulae or whatever I just make sure I can derive it on my own during the exam if I need to

this isn't biology where if you spend enough time at it you'll graduate with a shiny science degree. you need to actually be intelligent

>>25966120
how dare you I'm in physics

>>25965483
Where else are they going to go? The sciences are one place where ability matters more than appearances or social skills.

>>25966197
>he doesn't know that social skills are incredibly important for succeeding in academia

>>25965483
P Lease consider killing yourself.

Original desu comment.

I'm majoring in Construction management, and it's a mixed bag desu. Lots of attractive and unattractive people. Many engineering students are ugly as fuck unfortunately

>>25965483
We're trying to compensate for our lack of attractiveness with the hope of a better salary in order to attract better mates.

>>25968642
Failed normies absolutely disgust me

cs/maths student here

all the physics kids in my uni are reddit-y and love black science man and watch shit like markiplier on youtube and unironically enjoy ted talks or the joe rogan podcast

>>25965483
because ugly people know they'll have to actually work hard and earn an education to be successful
