define 'good looking'



perfectflaw00 -> RE: People freak when you tell them looks matter (4/26/2010 9:30:16 AM)

good bone structure, symmetry in the face, clear skin, healthy smile, healthy body weight (not skinny, not fat). 



GreedyTop -> RE: People freak when you tell them looks matter (4/26/2010 9:31:07 AM)

and tell me.. who are YOU to determine that these traits are the ideal?



perfectflaw00 -> RE: People freak when you tell them looks matter (4/26/2010 9:35:09 AM)

don't shoot the messenger, but I see it everyday in real life. Not saying that I'm promoting it but if you don't think someone who looks like brad pitt gets treated differently than joe schmo you're lying to yourself.



perfectflaw00 -> RE: People freak when you tell them looks matter (4/26/2010 9:39:55 AM)

Let me ask you, what to you constitutes good looking? I didn't think what I listed was so out of the ball park didn't mean to offend anyone.



GreedyTop -> RE: People freak when you tell them looks matter (4/26/2010 9:49:09 AM)

good looking to me includes good hygiene, body language that does not transmit "arrogant, self-absorbed asswipe", and once intros are made: an interest in things outside ones self, humor, an ability to not take ones self too seriously, intelligence..loads of other factors, but those are BIG things to me.

Just because someone fits the media-driven ideal of what is attractive does NOT mean I would find them physically appealing.  Johnny Depp at his scruffiest appeals to me... but that has more to do with the things I have heard about him as a PERSON than his outward appearance.

Russel Crowe... scruffy.. PHYSICALLY same general appeal.. what I hear about him as a PERSON negates any potential physical appeal.

I was going to post something along the lines of "come on now, statistically speaking, attractive people are more successful."  But then I stopped to think of the people who are in the top 10 slots for richest person(s), and I had to rethink that.  Most of those wealthy, successful business people are NOT what I'd call at all attractive.  Soo, meh, never mind.  Yeah I just posted a post to say I decided not to post.  Go figure.



soul2share -> RE: People freak when you tell them looks matter (4/26/2010 9:57:27 AM)

Wow...I've only read two pages of this, and I just gotta say.....you're gonna be one lonely little lady.......good luck finding the substance needed for here....enough has been said about looks fading, but you know something, you're a hundred times uglier than what you would consider the most unattractive person here......of course, that's just my opinion......

GT, put the knife down :-)

I don't know if this is really disagreeing, but those fancy hairdos do nothing for me for example. I see more of a turnon when it is all tossed over, basically FUBARed, like in the morning. And at that time neither has had a shower so everything should smell at least OK. That's horny time for some.

I am truly a slob, seriously. But if I am going to be with someone I have the decency to clean up. If they don't like what they see after the dirt is gone, to hell with them.

i hear where you were coming from and I completely agree with what you listed as well. I was strictly talking purely physical attributes as it where. If a person is stuck up or overtly full of him/herself then any attraction is lost.

Of course looks matter to a degree humans are visual creatures. Now the op could have come in and stated her opinion a little less arrogant but there is some truth to what she stated. In this society there is a premium on beauty its sad but its the truth. Good looking people get treated differently.


Stating in her profile that she only has sex with models is one thing. Telling someone they're too butt ugly for her to waste time on is rude. She's going out of her way to hurt people. And claiming she isn't being mean is just cowardice. Even five year olds know better than to point at a person and say loudly "what a big nose he has".

Unfortunately the op doesn't have the common civility of a five year old. Shame that.

What a load of tripe! Looks tell you nothing about a person, some of the sweetest looking people are also killers. What a vain, shallow, vacuuous statement.
This is superficiality on steroids. (walks off muttering and shaking head)

Looks do count. Even you prove an old cliche about looks. Dude... you look like your dog.

One day Im gonna get a dog like this so I can have an animal twin too.

Yikes!  A couple of people sent Me messages about how huge My thread had gotten, but oMg this is hilarious.  I just stated My opinion and everything blew up.  I don't even know why people are still hanging around here, the thread is basically over, I already told you all I'd pretty much had My question answered already just by the defensive denials people were making.  I guess I just find the fascination funny...My thread is over, move on with your lives lol.

I always say this is just my opinion, what I think.  This is just the way things are to me and I don't see how anyone could get so offended when I make that clear.  Jeez I'm not being mean just stating my opinion.  Why can't people deal?


gosh am I late [&o][&o][&o] and in your limited view of life this thread is over

well....you ask why can't people deal...quite frankly, why can't you deal when others disagree with your snobby view [8|]

I always chose personality before looks as quite frankly personality is there for you if you ever need a friend ... looks vanish from one sunbed, to the next hairdresser, to the next beauty treatment all the time....I have neither time for such people nor would I waste money to unneccessarily damage my skin with such crap...I sorted out a lot of shallow fools like you and as one of the guys I am still friends with blamed me at times "black or white, cut or dry"....yep, thats how I am...as I quite frankly don't have time to waste with shallow fools who just waste my time...my time is prescious to me in real life and I don't waste it on shallow folks.

Did you somehow think you could retain control over the thread? Do you think we will move on because you told us too? Hell, I agree with your OP but I am having fun and I get to post attractive dog pics like this one of Lance Hughes.

Some people really do look like dogs and vice versa. Looks count!
Lance, you handsome devil you!

Why do people on the internet get so pissy when you tell them that looks matter?  Isn't that just common sense?  I don't want to talk to fat guys or ugly guys.  It's nothing personal and it's my own choice. So why can't people just deal instead of getting so angry all the time?  To me looks matter, to me looks are the best way to tell what kind of person someone really is and to me looks are the most important piece of the attraction puzzle.  WHy can't everyone just deal?


It's quite simple, really. People who are told looks matter will only deal with it if they think the person making the statement is worth what it is they are seeking.

I've only seen one thread and one other post from you and it's very clear to me -- you're not. You are the type of person who reminds me of that joke about the woman who takes out an ad looking for a mate and demands that he be hot, rich and able to shower her with gifts and the one guy who replies to the ad lays out how his money and worth are both appreciable assets while her looks will only depreciate over time. Thus, she's not worth it.

You haven't taken out any ads like that recently...have you?



perfectflaw00 -> RE: People freak when you tell them looks matter (4/26/2010 3:23:26 PM)

so if you enjoy tanning and getting your hair cut than you're shallow?

Well, it's like they say....there's two kinds of ugly in a person. Physically ugly and ugly inside.

You have both.
