My girlfriend is the same as you. She likes interesting looks or weirdos. I always ask her if that means I'm ugly & weird.

She thinks that sometimes my taste is boring, but where she sees boring, I see flawless. Just like Brad Pitt is boring to me.

But under that surface I also appreciate character (looks & personality). It just takes a little longer, and also lasts longer.

Brad Pitt is boring to me. The only man who I don't think is overrated as far as his beauty goes is Johnny Depp though. God he's beyond beautiful.

And yeah, my husband says the same thing to me: "What are you trying to say? That I look like a dork or goofy?"

minneapolisgenius said:

Brad Pitt's boring because his acting is boring. There's probably a lot of men as handsome as Johny Depp, but they're not talented, too.

Talent is really attractive. Charlize Theron isn't the very most beautiful woman in the world but backing up her beauty with talent makes her stand out.

Both of them could make it on looks alone, but the fact that they haven't makes them all the more attractive

I saw 'Babel' this week and I thought he was pretty good--much better than any other movie in which I've seen him.

sextonseven said:

He's no Keanu. And maybe he's getting better.

But most of what I've seen just feels like acting instead of feeling natural. I've accused Al Pacino of this too, but he's a virtuoso ham, and Brad can't even ham it up properly.

NDRU said:

Brad Pitt's face has all the features I find very attractive (except his skin), I could care less about his talent.

Johny Dep is kinda sexy, he's not bad looking.

Most men consider Charlize to be stunning and would still do so if she was a shit actress.



I didn't know what else to say to contribute to this thread.

All of my girlfriends have been pretty. Looks are important. People don't like to admit it but it's true. The person has to turn you on physically. And "pretty" turns me on. I could never date a girl who was less than pretty. It would not work. There would be no sacktime. Like i couldn't get into a woman with a big nose like you mentioned. I saw a girl downtown the other day and her nose was really big that i found myself staring at it. No, i just couldn't do it.

Well...that's just it...if "pretty" doesn't turn someone else on, then they need to seek out what does. Some of us don't like the look of "perfection" It's just a preference.

Awwww...is that me with the bow?

Thanks, lady!

applekisses said:

and those of us who like pretty can't always agree on what pretty is, thank god!

Spats said:

Although you are clearly a parody with intention.... what you just wrote is as much crap as not. Some require that true, I for one do not.... that in and of itself keeps me single.. I just want someone to move me... and that on a far different level. Looks are fleeting at best and more often then not deceptive... I am far more attracted to the offbeat..... or in the greater world opinion "the off beat" which in my view is the on-track.
Ill never fit into the ideal ( so to speak) and I really don't give a shit..... I am generally very satisfied with me...I am just seeking the one who doesn't need me to be some sort of ideal to pacify his own ego or lack there of....
Most on point:
To take note is natural... to ogle and loose your senses is

I revel in my senses and the loss thereof.

i've really been wanting to stay away from this here thread.

i only read Jersey's first post and wholeheartedly agree. Men will practically penetrate any type of orfice. we usually spend most of our day thinking about that kind of stuff. sucking and licking titties, too.

I don't want to sound offensive, or like I subjectify women, but when I "check out" women (and I do... even as a gay man), I do so honestly because they're beautiful -- like a fine painting or a sunset or something. It's not because I want to do something salacious to them or undervalue other parts of them, like intellect or personality.

Lammastide said:

i try to be cool like that, but a salacious thought usually creeps inside my head while i'm checking them out or might lurk in an afterthought.

magnificentpentatonic said:

SHAME ON YOU!!

Actually, I understand. My extended glances at some dudes aren't always as innocent. I don't think there's anything wrong with appreciating someone's physical beauty... I just think we have to try not to get all freaky and lusty with it, or let it totally trump what else makes them up.

Lammastide said:

exactly what I do as a woman and that is no way salacious. Like I was saying the other day, I would rather watch a woman in a strip show than a man, because I find since neither would turn me on, at least a woman is nice to look at and I can really appreciate it.

NDRU said:

no! you look great!

True some guys are attracted to plain janes for whatever reason and some people are attracted to homely people. But i could never go there.
