Description

An online game ranking boys on their appearance is contributing to young men taking drastic measures to change their looks. It's part of a trend known as 'looksmaxxing'. The game called Omoggle pits random strangers against each other, using AI scans to rank them on their attractiveness in what's known as 'mogging' - with one user declared the winner. A spokesperson for Omoggle said it is "meant as a bit of fun, not a verdict on anyone's appearance", adding it takes "user safety seriously" and is restricting access in the UK and has "no affiliation with the manosphere". Dr Michael Mrozinski, who has done extensive work looking at this and Baroness Kidron, who campaigns for childrens' rights online joined Ranvir and Kate in the studio.
