So I asked a buddy of mine to take my photo to some of his lady friends and have them take a look at it. They all seemed very repulsed by how I looked, even though they couldn't explain why, as they said my face looked ok. They specifically said that I look like a rapist; that I have a serial killer face; that they would never approach me; that if I were to approach them in a bar they would feel uncomfortable; and that I'm not their type. (I got this “not my type” thing a lot in real life.)
I have come to the conclusion that there must be something very wrong with my face.

What do you think about your face? Is there anything unusual about it? Are you smiling in this photo that is being critiqued by others? If you dislike your face, maybe they're picking up on that somehow.
Also, I remember doing some online quiz, maybe on PC, where you would guess from photos who were rapists, thieves and so on. It turns out that people can guess with some degree of success what kind of character complete strangers have based solely on their photo. I'm not implying that you're a rapist, but people do judge character based on appearances if they have nothing else to go on. I guess that's where letting them know who you really are would help.
