Remember those are not independent percentages: the men you get along with are much more likely (though not guaranteed) to like you back than the ones you have no chemistry with.
When was single I used to console myself on what attractiveness I have being unconventional by thinking "A minority of of men like short, pasty, pear shaped women. But my chances of attracting one of those men are quite high since I only have to compete with other short, pasty, pear shaped women, many of whom are too busy trying to be tanned, tall and skinny to make the best of what they've got. So overall my odds may be pretty good" Which is all a bit shallow really but it cheered me up regardless :)
