    I agree agree people like myself should do the world a favour and simply forget about having any relationship, getting married or even having kids. I do not want to pass my ugly genes to any of them because I don't want them to feel or experience what I have felt like my whole life; being rejected by everyone in the world. Ugly people should just give up, seriously.

      Huh? Looks and appearance are last on the list of important things for anyone who is even remotely intelligent. Attraction and chemistry are important, yes. But attraction is based on more than society's definition of 'sexy' or 'good looking'. Making the world a better place is what matters, not making oneself better looking.

      @MargaritaPeach

      Let's use common sense. What you've said was from a biased judgmental perspective which is fine.. but don't try to make it out as fact. Looks are important to a great many people especially if sex is important to them in a relationship.

      Not all people define their attraction based off of what their culture deems to be attractive.

      I agree. I appreciate the take owner being honest. I am tired of women that claim that looks don't matter to women, and that men are shallow, but then only date hot guys themselves. There is nothing wrong with only dating someone you are attracted to. Who cares if it is shallow or not? Is the person judging you for your personal preferences really any better? I just wish women were more honest about what they really wanted in a guy, so guys would know how to improve themselves.

    Good points but you must understand people are attracted to things other than looks, if they aren't physically attracted to their significant other, it means they are attracted to them in a different way.

      True. But I'm remaining in my bubble of realism. I think I'd simply prefer someone I think was in my league. More comfortable and I would feel pretty bad if the hot guy was with someone that was less hot than someone he should be with (imo).

      If that makes sense.

      That's correct. Maybe I should have mentioned the fact that his present girlfriend used to date a male underwear model before she cheated on him with my friend and they now live together and she wants to get married. My friend is 5'7'', overweight, and wears glasses.

      Now surely that's nothing more than a coincidence.

    Don't be offended but I would give you 2-3. I really don't tell you this to make you angry but to warn you. As guys we date and sleep with girls who are not attractive, because we think it is free and better than masturbation. This means if you are able to sleep with attractive guys don't think that they desire you. They simply try to ejaculate.

    most girls try to deny it... guys are called shallow for the same reason but it´s merely a biological funciton: To look for a partner that seems to be able to be a worthy specimen to mix with our genes in order to procreate in a effective fashion.

      No. Guys aren't called that for the same reason. Many guys only focus on the looks of the woman and not the personality when this topic comes up.

      Many women say looks, looks/personality, or simply personality.

      Do many guys NOT date unattractive women because of the reasons that I stated? NO. They don't date them because they don't like the look, not that they COULD NOT sleep with them. Common sense.

      When did I say that "guys don't care for personality"? I said "many guys". That wasn't all. That meant " a lot". Many guys care for personality. I know that.

      i get what you´re saying :) i even agree ^^ you just assume it´s different from what guys do. well either i am "different" which i don´t think is true or guys are exactly the same. sure there are "some" which are exclusively superficial but there are girls like this too.

      Oh my God... I wasn't judging the whole gender. I DIDN'T judge the whole gender. I was speaking factually.

      I know that there are guys who can't get hard when dealing with someone they aren't attracted to, but they seem to be less in number than the guys who would basically say "No. She's not cute so that's it".

      I think most guys are willing to date a woman who has looks AND personality. I don't see how this is getting lost in translation... lol.

      Racism - the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.

      Aside from things like pigmentation and facial features, nobody believes that.
