I never said they are ugly. Just not good looking. Mostly plain, maybe below average. There are exceptions of course, maybe 5-15% of GMs have above average looks, some examples were provided in this thread by those who argue against my claim, but that doesn't disprove the general tendency for GMs to lack the physical appeal.

Coz they're nerds, I suppose? Is that the correct answer?

that is just an excuse. this girl looks like nerdy but she is very cute:>>>>

You see, I don't think so at all. I was watching tennis today and Caroline  Wosniaki is sort of minimum "cute" standard that I would have gone out with when I was young enough to go out with such people. Are there any chess players like her? If not, why not? Because they sit around all day instead of exercising, maybe?

That chess players don't exercise. Some don't, some do a lot.

Yeah, totally.

I remember that time I saw Don Knotts at the beach and got 10% of an erection.
