Why do guys stare at unattractive girls?

[Anonymous]

If they're unattractive, what's the point of staring at them?

[AriesMan]

I stare at girls, not to be "creepy", but because I find them attractive, and yes, I am guilty of looking over their body, it is a part of finding a girl attractive! However, the downside to this is being very self conscious of myself since I am going to college and I don't want any female students to feel threatened in some way by my gawking eyes. So, I end up looking like I have a condition as I intentionally try to avoid eye contact, looking up, down, all around the passing girls, when waiting for my next class to start as I stand outside in the hallway.

Guys don't stare at unattractive girls, unless they are doing something or wearing something to command their visual attention!

[Kkaos]

And how do you know? I don't stare and unattractive girls, I don't know any guy who does. Why do girls stare at unattractive guys? I could ask the exact same stupid question.

[Asker]

Because guys sometimes stare at me even though I'm unattractive?

[goddess87]

Just because you don't find someone attractive doesn't mean they aren't to someone else. Look at Kristen Stewart or Jessica Biel who strongly resembles Gary Busey. Trust me. There is always someone out there that thinks someone else is attractive.

[KDria]

Sounds like someone you don't want looking at other women was looking at other women orrrr someone who wasn't supposed to be looking at other women told you "she's ugly" to make you feel better.

[Asker]

It's neither...

[Jinxx2196]

well, maybe because they dont share the same taste as you? besides who are you to judge them of it? you sound like a prude

[Asker]

I can't really be a prude if I'm talking about myself lol.

[Jinxx2196]

now i feel like an idiot, if you're talking about yourself, as i said maybe you guys dont share the same taste. if you see yourself as unattractive, doesn't mean they have to as well, maybe they appreciate the way you look? or you had some food on your face, either way you caught their attention

[ciitruskiwi]

Just because you find someone unattractive doesn't mean they do.

[IdekButHey]

Everyone likes something different, today my roommate said a girl was ugly as hell but I'd totally date her. So you may find them unattractive but the guy might find them gorgeous. And just like someone said people stare at different and unique things so thats another reason.

Attractiveness is one thing yet only a small thing. How is this person's personality? Are they kind to their parents? Are they respectful in general? Are they funny? Are they quiet or vocal? These all play a major role in someone's "attractiveness". I've seen many "pretty" girls with horrible attitudes. I never gave them another thought. They want and expect guys to stare at them. I was cussed at for ignoring a girl because I thought she was rude as hell. Find someone you love on the inside, because looks fade and then all you have left is each other's company.

A woman's beauty to a man in most cases is a study of individual things about a woman. Most are parts, not the whole. It's not a mean of bad thing either. Most men think of a woman as a compilation of great things physically. So "unattractive" women to you, even how you might view yourself, is just simply not true for most men. A simple skin tone can mean the difference between attraction and not. In the end though, it's my opinion, most guys could care less after they're with you. They love you for you.

[WiseTurtle]

Because you find them unattractive doesn't mean everyone in this planet will find them unattractive too. People have different preferences so it's obvious you will find that some guys will like some girls who you find unattractive.

[Asker]

I was talking about me.

[WiseTurtle]

That won't change even if you were talking about you

[kenjaminSlutton716]

I stare at everyone I observe my surroundings that being said if she's ugly that will be the only glance i give if im really into a girl i glance at her a few times and if I notice she does it back ill make eye contact smile and depending on the vibe and circumstances approach

[sketchy]

If the girl in that picture is your idea of an unattractive girl, that would probably explain a lot...

[Asker]

I didn't upload that photo. I didn't notice it until you said it.

[Pyrofox]

Objectiveness would be the word I'd use. One could see themselves as unattractive. But to another they might be the most beautiful thing they have ever seen. Plus its all to stereotypical for those who call themselves ugly to be beautiful.

[Anonymous]

Because you might actually be attractive to the guys who stare at you. I mean, I for one usually prefers the quiet reserved girls than the ones who are outgoing but there are others who prefer the opposite

[10dsw]

Well how are we supposed to know if they're unattractive or not without checking them out first?

Logic blown!

[Anon-ymous1]

Huh? We don't. Which guys are YOU talking about? Only dudes with really low standards will actually check out or catcall chicks that are fat or whatever.

[Asker]

I'm talking about guys that stare at me but the low standards part is why it now makes sense to me.

[Anon-ymous1]

Don't be so hard on yourself

[assgrabber]

So fat chicks are automatically unattractive? I'd like to think some of us are very attractive. I'm curvy I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing is it?

[Asker]

I'm fat and I know I'm unattractive, which is why I asked the question. I think there are beautiful curvy/fat girls. It doesn't make a woman unattractive but it does for me.

[Anon-ymous1]

@assgrabber Bad in what way, like you're a bad person? No of course not.

[thisguy24]

How do you know they are unattractive? Maybe that one guy that is staring at that one girl, he doesn't see it that way

[Ryvien]

? If they state at them, aren't they attractive instead? I'm confused

[Fuselesss]

attractiveness is relative. attitude (cute or naughty look or smile, ...) is also an effective attribute that could easily hook a guy up even when for him overall looks are average.

[ProssimaFermata]

I'm add and stare around at everything. Most of the time at no one or nothing

[AaronKrieger]

They find them attractive or are just day dreaming.

[Rangers]

What if I told you that looks are completely subjective

[Stan_Control_]

Exactly dude.

[mkiwan]

You can't just say she isn't attractive. Every girl has its own way in being attractive. The body isn't everything

[DesiBeautyLover]

Because girls that are unattractive to some are attractive to others. If they weren't, there would be A LOT of single ladies out there

[Neosho]

We are not partial... We stare both attractive n unattractive girls... Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder... So... Don't think much everyone is attractive

[TacosRAwesome]

Because people tend to stare at extremes coz they're more unique.
