Just like men, all women are different! Of course I have an idea of the "perfect" man, but the one I'm missing and thinking about right now certainly isn't the media-hyped definition of perfect. But he's sweet and funny and smart, which makes him absolutely, completely gorgeous to me.
Precisely sox! It's not always, or even usually in my case, strictly someone's physical features that make them beautiful. And thank you tara! Snugglebutt is a (very) minor character in my favorite book. I use the name for everything, including one of my email addresses and it always gets either a laugh or an eye roll when I give it out.
It's not about finding them beautiful, but being able to love them as they are. Then, if you think you couldn't, that's your life and no one can force you to anything.
Bluekitty1013: on initial appearance I don't usually find very obese people attractive. As a rule though, women want to be judged on more than strictly appearance. On a good day I might be considered physically average, but I'm much more than what meets the eye. I kind of took this to mean men deserve the same, to be considered more than just something to look at and admire. Or maybe I'm too serious.
I think there are men that do find this attractive, but for some women, the issue is the guy they want, may not find it attractive. Plus i find sometimes girls are more critical of each other than guys are. Some men don't seem to genuinely care.
i think the main problem here is we think too much about aesthetics than a person's worth. those are two different things we absolutely love to equalize. it's not about finding other people aestethically pleasing. it's about accepting others despite their looks and not judging them based on their appearance. PEOPLE ARE NOT THEIR FACES AND THEIR WEIGHT AND BULGING MUSCLES.
It's not about YOU or ME or fashion magazines and their beauty standards. It's about ACCEPTANCE. Stop confusing it with beauty. Beauty is a very subjective temporary thing that's constantly changing; it shouldn't be so damn important as it is in our sick, perverted, superficial society.
I think that while personality is a large part of how beautiful someone is, having a good attitude towards their own health and taking care of themselves is part of a beautiful personality too. Relationship-wise, you can appreciate someone's personality but for a romantic relationship to work you have to be physically attracted to them too. It's important to remember, though, that different people are attracted to different body shapes and personalities, so whatever floats your boat.
OP does know that that picture is meant to make girls feel better about themselves when a good percentage of the media makes girls feel shitty about not being tall and skinny and white and blonde with a fake rack, right?
Get your dick out of your ass, bro. Not everything has to be about you.
You do realize the media does the exact same thing to guys right? When was the last time you saw the news or an entertainment outlet portray the "ugly" guy as the hero? At best they are tolerated at worst they are shown as the villain over and over again. To act as if only one group has issues is the exact opposite of equality.
I appreciate the message but I don't think it is aimed and men, I think this picture is aimed at women who feel bad about themselves. And also in all seriousness a good personality can overcome all body types.
