The first example is magazine pretty, plastic attractiveness. It feels hollow.
The second is genuine, a real girl next door kind of feel. Cute and expressive.
This is why guys prefer less/no makeup.
I’d say it’s more the expression than looks. If the make up girl was smiling she’d likely be preferred instead.
Because "conventionally attractive women" are usually fake, use lots of makeup, lots of plastic surgery, etc. And its just gross
Yeah emphasis on usually... not all are so it’s dumb to just assume. There’s tons of beautiful women who are all natural
Yeah thats who I'd date but as soon as I find out or they use to much makeup I'm gone
Because nobody likes a fake rolex and will pick a reliable Casio over it in a heartbeat.
Most likely because the 1st one is really some 300lb. Dude sitting in his mom's basement in Akron Ohio.
Catfishing pretending to be that woman.
That’s a model on Instagram bro...
1. I'm not your bro.
2. That went completely over your head.
1. No one said anything about a dating app so you didn’t even understand the question
2. I can call you bro if I want, why so mad. Chill
1. because pictures are real life why do you have such a problem with just admitting your mistake.
2. Nobody's mad. If I get anymore relaxed I'll be asleep. Still doesn't changed the fact that I'm not your bro. and will correct you when you say it.
When a man rates. He thinks about his compatibility to that women and not the being actual judge there.
They are both gorgeous, but usually it's because of the fakeness in a lot of girls. It's a personality thing more than looks.
i just feel like i have more of a chance with them generally
Yes but I have more chance with my neighbour than Zac Efron but I can admit Zac Efron is hotter physically.
Well yeah cause ones a celebrity the other isn't
Point was ones hot and the other is ok but I can still admit the hot one is hot. Same here with the two girls, ones a model and hot, the other is average but still cute. But why do people tend to say the average one is more attractive rather than just admitting the truth
Guess you never heard “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” huh?
Well I’m just going off by what your comment is. Ofc beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but some things are just blatantly obvious. Like no ones gonna tell me that Lizzie Velasquez is more stunning than Megan fox. Plus beauty and attraction are different. I can think someone is attractive but not be attracted to them. Like for example, I don't know random male model, they’re probably attractive yes, but that doesn’t automatically make me attracted to them if you get what I’m trying to say.
because the truth is beauty is in the eye of the beholder... society can't really dictate beauty. Even though it wants to.
lel both these bebs looks the same level of attractiveness. They look alike
I disagree lol
First girl has a lot of makeup and looks like she had lip enhancement, both turn-offs.
Usually because of less makeup, A lot of Girls have a naturally pretty face and it can look fake and unattractive if the cover it up too much.
Its the makeup. Girls who wear lots of makeup are not attractive.
Its also smiling. Rbf is not attractive. I exclusively go for women who are smiling and laughing because i do that myself a lot.
Heyyyy I have rbf I can’t help it, I don’t wanna smile 24/7, I laugh obviously what human doesn’t, I’ll try in photos but I look rude in person and that’s just how my lips rest 💀😓
But why dont you smile at people? I dont walk around w a smile but if i make eye contact ofc i smile because im friendly and welcoming.
Well obviously I do that but if I’m just sitting there or walking, I’m gonna rest my face lmao
But who is seeing that? It doesn't matter what you do when nobody is looking smh
People tell me I look unapproachable when I just sit there lmao
Well without seeing you I don't know what to say. If a girl smiles at me i always think she's approachable. doesn't mean i do but just means if i want to i will. I almost never approach a girl that isn't smiling.
Number two is just so naturally beautiful. Very attractive! Number one looks not so natural, I don’t like all the make-up.
You're a girl so how would you know what's attractive to guys and what's not? that being said guys vary in their preferences. Someones 6 mm might be someone else's 8
That’s why I asked this question bro...
I'm trying to say that a girl who might be average looking to you might be pretty to guys. To a guy what's average might be different from what's average to you
Yeah I know, that’s why I asked “is it because of the difference between male gaze vs female gaze” in my details somewhere.
well what can we do with conventionally attractive girls? I don't think they are useful.
So you’re admitting that you rate non conventionally attractive girls higher so you can get with them or?
uh, no?
Well then what can you do with average girls then that you can’t do with attractive ones?
I would make them attractive and take pleasure in it
The second girl looks more real and simple. She doesn't look as if she is craving for attention.
The same reason women on here prefer conventionally attractive men, than average men
Elaborate? My take was on why men prefer average women rather than conventionally attractive women. So if you flip the roles, your opinion doesn’t line up.
But that's exactly it.
Women don't go after average men
I think the first girl is more attractive actually.
Well those are easier lays or girls that "possibly" having been lonely for some time are more willing to do oral degrading acts
Because more so than not usually the cute girls are sweet, kind, and feminine and the hot ones are independent, entitled, and bad
Because they learned their lesson. Looks are not everything. Being beautiful alone doesn't make you girlfriend material
The first girl isn't conventionally beautiful she has small eyes, no visible cheekbones, even a little bit of a hamster face, far from model looking. I'd rate both of them a 6/10.
Her eyes are big, he nose is small, and her skin is clear, nice jawline, light eyes, and she is in fact a model... what country are you from? I don't know what your standards entail but that’s the American beauty standard (for white people at least)
Conventionally attractive means she fits the beauty standard and the majority of people find her beautiful, which is true. She’s not my type either but it’s just factual.
Maja Strojek forexample has large eyes, but the girl on the picture regardless how hard she tried to compensate it with makeup, has eyes of a mole. I can't even see her skin cus of make up. Here nose isn't ugly but isn't beautiful either. The first thing I noticed is that she has a nice jaw line, but a too prominent chin. I'm from Eastern Europe. If she's a model maybe you can find a better picture of her tho
I just picked the first photo that popped up. And omg I love Maja strojek she’s stunning. Her photos are heavily edited though so saying this girl has too much makeup is kinda dumb. Plus small eyes aren’t unattractive? Lots of Asians and hispanics have smaller eyes and they’re beautiful. American standards are way different from European ones lol I know that for sure
I only said Maja has large eyes, it has nothing to do with her skin. I think you can pull off small eyes if you're Asian, but they don't look good on white girls. Eastern Europeans just have better DNA when it comes to beauty. Americans are made up from mostly western europeans who within Europe aren't really considered to be the prettiest. Slavic girls are overwhelmingly represented in model industry for this very reason.
I mean if you look at some celebrities like Jennifer Lawrence and Adriana Lima, they have pretty small eyes compared to others, but they’re still considered attractive, in our society at least. However I don’t disagree, with that last part, white Europeans tend to be more attractive than white Americans but that doesn’t make the first girl ugly lol she still fits the conventionally attractive category although she isn’t the most beautiful human.
She isn't ugly, I'd say she's more attractive than 6 out if 10 girls. It's the top 40%.
most of them are fuckers lacking of attention and the real 10 women it is too much for them to deal with in real life so they have somekind of revenge in a subconscious way.
I think this is kind of an unfair picture comparison because it looks like the first girl is wearing more makeup than the second girl
Yeah that’s fair, I shoulda used a better example. But you get what I mean.
Yes. Makeup can enhance a woman’s features and it is quite obvious the first girl is wearing more makeup than the second girl in these pictures
What are you talking about? The second girl is just more attractive than the first.
Well I don't know if I could pick one to be I’d easily go with the first, the second girl isn’t attractive in my opinion but ig beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Plus that was just an example, maybe a bad one but I just meant in general.
That just means you have bad taste.
I prefer actual beauty over superficial “beauty” if that’s what you mean.
I don't know prob wanna be nice but in real life they’d probably go for the hottest piece of ass
Both are super beautiful... first one especially.. is perfect
There is no such thing as that gaze. American moronism.
The first girl wears makeup, the second not, so it is safer to know she is hiding less.
Guys are not half as dumb as girls (mostly)
Girl 1 is just as pretty without it. Girls aren’t dumb, tf are you on? And no it’s definitely a thing, if you look at most how do I look polls, the majority of guys pick a certain girl and the majority of girls pick the other.
Well girls assume they are smart.
Most are between ridiculously stupid and plain old dumb.
Look up Dunning Kruger - those with lower mental capability always assume they are top, those at the top always expect someone else is a little smarter than them (used to be called 'n8ce guys' (genuinely nice) - until envious bitches attacked it and started promoting middle eastern assholes as Alpha males
Gender doesn’t determine whether or not you’re smart lmao, there are dumb men and there are dumb women. And there dumb men who think they’re smart and there are also dumb women who think they’re smart. Stop making it about gender lol, stupidity exists everywhere
@asker, your opinion of a female's looks DO NOT MATTER. All that matters is what men think.
@hahahmm idgaf what you think, no one cares about what you think. Stfu and get a life
@hahahmm also no idea why you’re so mad and so misogynistic, men aren’t all that matters dumbass. No wonder you’re single. Bye
Lmao reveals your level of thought about thinking
@hahahmm yep
Lol shows how you don’t even know how to think, stay single love.
You're a moron. Take your own advice (check if you can alter me by envy and jealousy, mean bitch)
Name one thing I said that was mean, I’ll wait.
Keep waiting
Exactly my point, I never said anything mean, bitch.
Fight with yourself, darkie
Mad you can’t win an argument because you attacked me for no reason? Yeah that’s what I thought. Also sorry to say but most women like men who don’t think they’re stupid, whoa. Mindblowing huh? Have a nice life I guess. Bye. If you reply to this imma assume you’re gay :)
They both look like models to be honest.
Both are very attractive and pretty
First one is wearing waaaaaay too much makeup
Well.. I'm not sure you can judge people you don't know... unless you've met one of them I suggest you leave their characters out of it like everyone else on here should have.
I prefer the girl in the picture
I find the second girl way more attractive.
Lol exactly why I’m asking this question
Are you the second girl?
No they’re both random people online
Well if you want to message me I can try and explain it LOL
Nooo I don’t wanna reveal my profile lol I sound so rude and salty
It's Okay LOL
Here? GaG isn't a dating app or site.
Personal preference plays a big role.
First one's too dolled up. Instant unattraction
They are both cute :)
obviously attractive.
Im not sure
No idea. Possible.
Beauty is subjective
Yeah but it’s not subjective to society, if ones a model and one isn't, ones obviously more attractive overall, not everyone will agree with society but yeah
I'd find that hard to follow as I rarely ever think a "model" is attractive, I'm more into unconventional beauty so
You called me attractive before, should I be offended? 😂😂😂 it was a long time ago when I used to post pics of me but anyway
I dunno, doesn't bother me
First one
