One of my friends, if taken from a photograph is average. Nothing to write home about. But in person, the sheer force of her personality has men flocking at her in droves. Charm is the key. You can be devastatingly beautiful, but it's useless if you've got a mouth like a drunk trucker and a sour, selfish personality.

This is very true.
I'd like to add to your post. I've known a couple of extremely pretty girls who fancied themselves as being just that. This is a serious repellent for most men. Not all pretty girls are like that, but a few examples like them can cause a ripple effect.
Additionally, I've read in psychology books that most people tend to date people of similar "attractive" levels. As BS as this sounds, I've done nothing but see it around me so I can't completely dispel it. So, if you happen to be unreasonably pretty...good luck finding a reasonably pretty man. (Handsome would have been more apt, I'd guess) :P
