duckrepair Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I feel awful about calling someone "ugly". But I pretty much mean they're so out of your norm of physical attractiveness or have weird features.
FitChick Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 I remember seeing a picture of a man in the paper and thinking he was so unattractive. Then he worked at my company and I started to see him everyday. Then I got to know him and he became more and more attractive until I practically became obsessed. I have to say, though, that the face isn't that important to me. He was my basic type -- tall, slim and fit with a full head of hair. Add a great sense of humor and intelligence and he's a winner.
OnyxSnowfall Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 I've found that if someone has a very charming personality... (and or they have beautiful qualities and traits)... that over-time, even if they're asymmetrical and look unhealthy etc... their physical features become more and more attractive. Yes... even flaws begin to reflect their amazing ways and can become exceptionally endearing. They can put to shame highly attractive physiques etc.
Disenchantedly Yours Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 One of the sexiest men I know is someone some might call ugly. But I thought he was very sexy. I suspect this is more common with women then the reverse since men tend to be harsher judges of women's looks.
Cypress25 Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Ever find someone so ugly that they start becoming cute? Like a pug?
coolheadal Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Guys would say just put a bag over her head and call it a day. I say just enjoy the company. She make you happy just go with it. If she got a huge mole on her nose with hair sticking out if it then we have issue though.
mesmerized Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Maybe it has happened. But not the kind of cute I would want to have sex with.
Disenchantedly Yours Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Guys would say just put a bag over her head and call it a day. That's an extremely degrading train of thought toward women. Lets not facilitate degrading commentary when it's not necessary. I know your intention was good but I'm just tired of the ease we make degrading refrences toward women on this board and perhaps we can be a little more mindful of how we talk about each other.
AHardDaysNight Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 I've had average girls become hot, but never had a girl that I found ugly initially become attractive to me.
CarrieT Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 I think Geoffrey Rush is actually kind of ugly. But for whatever reason, I find him incredibly sexually appealing and desirable.

Yeah but this how guys talk, you should know how then think too. I am not like this. But again if you tell them it's wrong they laugh at you. I still feel every girl needs a chance with any type of guy out there. Hey we're all the same inside.
udolipixie Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 The only time unattractive becomes attractive is when that person was not. Like a man marrying an attractive girl and despite the aging she's still attractive because he had feelings for her before the unattractiveness came so his feelings overrode that. Otherwise: ugly stays ugly average stays average hot stays hot My view of your physical attractiveness doesn't change. My physical attraction changes in the hot case if they guy has certain traits I dislike then I'd find the guy hot but I'm not attracted to him. Attraction stays the same for ugly/average guys no amount of whatever will build up that physical attraction level.

I agree, but I think that average looking people can very well become more attractive if they have charming personalities. Renee Zellweger is perhaps a good example of an average looking woman who is considered by many guys as attractive due to her social status. Jim Carrey is average looking as well, but look at his ex girlfriend I am sure there are women out there who find him attractive, although he is rather bland looking (if only judged by his physical traits).
AHardDaysNight Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 A good example is Mick Jagger. If that guy wasn't a famous rock musician, he wouldn't be considered a sex symbol.
udolipixie Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 I agree, but I think that average looking people can very well become more attractive if they have charming personalities. I missed two words "to me" as the first statement implies I think this is a universal thing. Though I thought the words weren't necessary since most would get do to the thread title a person is talking about their own behavior. The first sentence is also an incomplete sentence after not should be initially unattractive. I think my example clears confusion of the incomplete first sentence so users get the main idea. of when ugly becomes attractive to me. The only time unattractive becomes attractive to me is when that person was not initially unattractive. Like a man marrying an attractive girl and despite the aging she's still attractive because he had feelings for her before the unattractiveness came so his feelings overrode that.
Johnny85 Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 ^LOL we are debating, which is typically what people do on a forum. But you may specify, clarify, edit and correct your grammar if it server a purpose in your life.

LMAO XD I wasn't sure that this could even be turned into a debate since it's about what we personally do. With the exception of debating if one's behavior is wrong. I agree, but I think that average looking people can very well become more attractive if they have charming personalities. Some people work like that and others. Are we debating if it's a majority thing? It's probably a majority thing for both genders in a different way. From my experiences: Girl + ugly/average guy = more attraction & more physically attractive ^ quite amusing how the perception of the way the guy looks changes Men + average girl = more attraction wise. ^ the perception of her looks doesn't change he's just more attracted to her...such as a guy with his average wife vs a hot girl he knows the girl is hot but he doesn't have the same level of attraction to the hottie as he does to his wife
