In all honesty idgaf about looks if you're sweet, can make me smile, and give me that warm feeling in my heart, I could love you.

Whew, indoctrination sure is ruining children's minds these days.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

actually no. that's a fucking mean thing to say. If I really clicked with someone, and loved their personality, I would date them. who cares what anyone else thinks?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

yeah i know. we only go for looks because subconsciously we think good looking=good health, and we want our children to be healthy.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

What the fuck is this shit? Attraction to appearance has nothing to do with health most of the time (well, for me, anyways). I've seen quite a lot of insanely hot pale and chubby guys in my time. Oh, god, what I would do to them... Also, not every woman and man (especially the gays like myself) want a biological child. I don't think you quite understand what appearance means to humans. Also, SYMMETRY.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

yes i do, i have studied about this. I have even read articles about it, it is out human subconscious to pro create and we think that by our mate having symmetry or good looks we relate it to their health and we want to have healthy children.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Healthy is good. And generally, people who are more attractive are healthy. So why is this a bad thing? Also, this isn't just related to people. Humans like symmetry in general.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

omg i am saying that we subconsciously relate symmetry to healthy. i never said there was anything wrong with healthy i am saying that it is just nature. what do you not get?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Well, if it's natural, then why do you disagree? Looks will matter to you. It's super-glued into your brain, isn't it?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I said that i do not base my relationships solely on looks, it is shallow and just because someone is good looking it does not necessarily mean that they are healthy. We have choices, we don't always have to listen to our nature.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

... I sure do wish I could say the same thing about my homosexuality, that it was a choice and don't have to listen to nature... Qurl, it's nature. You have to listen to it. You're a part of it. And it's not shallow at all, really! I can't date an ugly motherfucker like the Hunchback of Notre Dame. It's just... Ugh. But I can't date a really hot asshole like the majority of guys in my school. Sure, maybe I'll whore around a bit with them, but relationships? Hell naw. They gotta have a decent appearance (not PERFECT, god... Though that would be nice...) and a great personality. That's just how it is.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

uhm no you do not have to listen to nature, we are born with free will.

I have the free will to magically turn heterosexual, then?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

possibly.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

and it is not magic, free will= your choice.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

If you really think so, you're ignorant. We can't control everything about ourselves, and to those who think they can are probably indoctrinated with this belief. We don't have that strong of a free will, sadly.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

i never said we can control everything about ourselves, i said we have free will and often times even our society takes control of our choices. I am pretty sure you learn self-control at a young age, if you didn't, that's pretty sad. You might not have that of a strong will, but that's your problem.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Nobody learns self-control that well. And it's not "sad" if they couldn't or were unable to. It's actually pretty offensive to think that just because they didn't learn what you did that it's pitiful. We are naturally attracted to appearance like how people are naturally attracted to the opposite or same sex. Anything dealing with attraction can't be controlled.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Agreed. This person is really shallow.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, but what catches your eye about the person in the first place... their looks. Well, most of the time.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Ohhh, it was "mean" to say?? Well aren't you a prude bitch? Honesty isn't rude. Some people DO think that you're ugly, some people DO think that looks matter, too. Goodness, let's hope people don't form opinions against your own... No matter what you say, you will ALWAYS care about appearance. Stop trying to seem like a perfect little angel.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Alright hey, I was stating my opinion. And I don't really see how saying what I said makes me a bitch. *I* think it's rude. There was no reason for you to reply to me. I didn't comment to start some debate. You don't agree? Good for you. I'm sorry, but I don't think It's fair to tell me that I care about appearance. Do I know you? No. You don't know anything about me. I was being completely honest in my comment. I DON'T care about looks. That doesn't make me a "prefect little angel". I have an opinion, deal with it instead of being rude and making assumptions about me.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

here is an assumption for you, i am guessing you aren't super attractive or if you are, you lack self-confidence. looks matter. get over it.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's not that I'm unattractive, or lack self-confidence, It's that I just don't believe that looks matter. That's just my opinion. YOU need to get over the fact that not everyone thinks the same thing as you, and drop it.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I think looks matter, to an extent. You have to be attracted to your partner's looks in some way. People come as a package, and you have to like their looks as well as their personality. Some people have different tastes. Besides, if you're with someone because you ONLY like their personality, and you're not physically attracted to them, that will cause problems later on in the relationship.

That's not what the post says. The post says "you", as in everyone who reads the post. And the point of my comment was to say that I, unlike you, do not care about looks.

Thanks. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that I don't care about looks, that is the point of what I said. Sorry I got off track.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

(JennaGee is wrong): Oh, fuck off. You're not an angel or "deep" because you don't care about looks. It means you don't care about looks. You make it seem like you're the good of the world and everyone who cares about appearance is evil. No, you would NOT date the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Wanna know why? Because, unless you're blind (where you HAVE to care about personality then), you care. Am I telling you what you think? Yes, yes I am. I can also say you're going to be offended that I'm telling you what you think, and that you're probably going to comeback at me with something I "wouldn't expect" to make yourself seem like you're "different". Who are you trying to convince here, JenneGee? You, or us?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I'm not sure what you're trying to say... When did I say I was "deep" or "an angel"? And, just because you're shallow doesn't make everyone shallow. Don't be a bigot. You don't know me, or what I am like. The last sentence of your second paragraph makes no sense at all. Learn how to use quotation marks. I'm not really trying to convince anyone of anything, just say that I don't care about looks, and I WOULD date the hunchback, or any other person that people perceive as ugly.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

(JennaGee is wrong): Oh, you didn't. But I can read it in your posts. Shallow? I'm shallow because I decided to be human? Girl, I can't fucking date a douchebag, no matter how hot he is. Is that shallow? No. You're just indoctrinated with bullshit. Go off and learn a thing or 2 outside of this whole bullshit movement going on about disconnecting from our natural habits and thoughts which can't be controlled. I'm not being a bigot. I just hate liars and bullshit.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Also, way to go back and YYA your own comments and NW on the people who disagreed with you!

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I YYA and NW those posts because I agree and disagree with them, respectively. That's the point. Also, I'm not a girl. (I wouldn't date the Hunchback, exactly, but I was trying to make a point that looks don't matter to me, and I didn't feel like going through a long explanation.) Also, I'm not lying, but I see no way to convince you of that.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Its actually better if your partner isnt the best looking person, cos then at least you know all the girls/guys won't be all over them.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Looks do matter but not in that way, who cares what others think? But if you aren't physically attracted in the least to your parenter I don't see how it could work, really.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's merely an assumption, you know how people on here say that if you are talking about loving someone for their hearts you are ugly, I'm using the inverse of that.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

You give them a chance because of their looks, then figure out their personality.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's the opposite for me. If I find that someone has a good personality, I'll date them. I won't date someone that I don't know at all.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Something has to attract you to find out if they have a good personality. Looks are like a sort of ice-breaker to a relationship. I'm not suggesting dating without getting to know someone. I'm just saying that appearance matters.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Not really. I could have to sit next to someone on the bus, make small talk, and find out that they have a good personality without ever being attracted to them.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Talking about relationships here, dating. Not small talk on a bus, because I agree with you on that. But to be in a relationship you have to have some sort of psychical attraction present, its human nature. You can't just go off of personality.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Disagreed. I assumed you'd infer that I meant a relationship could stem off that bus incident.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

People just don't understand. Yes, it's sorta shallow and bitchy that they "don't want to be seen with someone ugly", but I voted up because I do care about looks. Does this mean I don't look at personality? No, dipshit. It means I know I'm human and decide to judge appearance. So, yes, I will reject someone if they're disturbingly ugly. Heaven forbid I realize that I'm human and naturally care about appearance! It's not avoidable. You will always care about appearance, even if you don't admit it because you don't want to look "shallow". Fuck off if you give a damn that I--living my own personal life, not yours or any involvement in yours--care about appearance. Write a sad blog entry to it to your internet friends and move on. U MAD?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No, Im not mad haha. I understand completely, looks matter to a point because you cant date someone you are not physically attracted to. Although, a good personality is a must have as well.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That's what I'm saying. Personality matters, but you can't date the pizza-faced, obese, greasy-haired, asymmetrically-faced kid. It's just... Unattractive, generally.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Ha well yes I would think so, but there is someone out there who would think that kid was attractive.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Of course. Some people go against the norms of attractiveness. For example, I like hairy, husky men. That's not common, really.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

not really lol im not big on hairy men, but i also dont really have a certain type of man that i like. I mean i think my boyfriend is super attractive, but if he didnt have the personality that he does i wouldnt be with him.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

well what if he is a fucking saint and will love and protect you no matter what?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

There's a difference between caring about appearance (because yeah, in all honesty, I do think everyone does because it's not like we can just not notice when people are attractive or not) and actually letting it affect your opinion on a relationship. I think about looks because like you said, I'm a human, it's natural, but at the same time I would still date someone with a great personality that I didn't find attractive. I have before and I will again if I find the right person. If you really love someones personality, their physical appearance stops mattering as much or at all.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Beauty is different to everyone. Someone who you may think is "ugly" is beautiful to somebody else.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Who gives a fuck if other people think they are ugly? Honestly if you have a fantastic personality you aren't ugly. Now if you're supossedly really pretty but a total bitch, that just makes you unattractive. Plus, what is attractive to you may not be attractive to someone else, its not the same for everyone.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I didn't think there would be that many people who'd agree with this. I understand that looks are what draws you to a person, but this post is just shallow. You can't fix how you look, and if you're too good for someone who isn't "attractive" by normal standards, that just makes you a douche. True ugliness is inside.

it's not so much that I wouldn't want to be seen dating an ugly person, I don't really give a crap what other people think. it's just that i would find it harder to be attracted to them. if I loved their personality i'd probably want to be their friend.
