Psychiatric Genetics Soon To Be Validated

Scientists devise software that can interpret attractiveness
"Believe it or not, this isn't the first time we've seen software created in order to determine whether a subject is drop-dead gorgeous, but scientists at Tel Aviv University have seemingly concocted a program of their own that can "interpret attractiveness in women." Before you ask, the researchers have yet to perfect the art of computing the beauty of males, but they're attributing said omission to the difficulty in "defining" attractiveness in dudes. Nevertheless, the software was purportedly able to reach nearly the same conclusion as humans about how lovely (or not) a hundred different ladies were, as it broke down features like face symmetry, smoothness of the skin and hair color. We're told the development could eventually be used in "plastic and reconstructive surgery and computer visualization programs," but c'mon, this is totally meant to automate the grueling Hot or Not process."
KEY WORD ALERT! "We're Told" and "Could Eventually." Look through any of the Multi Million Dollar research papers into the BS (Bio-Science) of Psychiatric Genetics: with its endless qualifying adverbs: might, could, possibly, conceivably, blah, blah, blah, send more money, blah, blah, blah.

The DSM-IV-TR weighs in at 883 pages. DSM-V is scheduled for 2011 (at Lord Knows how many pages) This "Hot or Not" breakthrough (if commercially successful) will generate at least another 30 debilitating 'Mental Illness' labels right on time for antidepressant and antipsychotic hosing in the DSM-VI, which, if past be prologue, will be issued in a 6 foot stack of volumes not unlike the unabridged $1000 Oxford English Dictionary. But; Continuing Medical Education from Pharmaceutical manufacturers will defray the $1000 charge, for the Psychiatric sales force of their products.

"Hot or Not" was engineered at Tel Aviv University; and the folks in Israel picked up the tab.

So what happens to the women who read out below 50?

"It's not your fault Ms. Your depression is due to the 'Unattractive' gene. We have Scientific, Computer Generated and Verified Proof, that you'll Never get a date. Does your family have a history of this sort of 'problem'? Was your mother, ever able to get a date? No matter, we know what's best. We're professionals. Just swallow these expensive pills for the remaining 70 years of your life, ..... provided you don't Hang Yourself in 2 weeks under their influence.

The $29.99 Shopping Mall Photo/Computer analyzed Proof of the 'Unattractive' gene will at long last validate today's multi-million dollar funded junk-science of Psychiatric Genetics, as the low scorers sink into Major Depressive Disorders.

This waste of money, while laughable, (or not) reflects the industry pervasive mentality of destroying people with Psychiatric labels, under the 'label' of helping them.

P.S. If you tax wasting Hot or Not tenured academics have even a shred of conscience [or commercial acumen]; you'll weight these dice so that Every woman who antes up comes away a winner.
