I saw this profile of a woman online, she lives WAY out in the boonies east of me, smaller town than even the on where I live....and had noticed some hypocritical things about her profile.

 

Her picture....she's hardly athletic...bit chunky , but curvy, but very average and cute (at least cute enough for me to get to know).

 

I tend to gravitate at least to my equivalent in physical appearances. I know well enough to be reasonable there.

 

In her profile she has this "list" and one of her parameters is that "you must be good looking and be athletic/fit." Where she's hardly such a fitness guru herself

 

But in her profile, she had some kind of "P.S." - I got a kick out how she whines and complains how no men reply to her emails....and "What? Do you expect some kind of Barbie Doll to date?"

 

Is it unrealistic to not date someone who is your equal in physical appearances?

It is a sociological fact that most people date those who are similar in age, race, education, religion and LOOKS!

If appearance is subjective (within reason) how might one know their equal?

 

If we're going by generalized terms, attractive, not attractive, then such may be possible, but even then, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

 

One would have to do a public polling scheme to get a "rating" on appearance by the general public, then find someone of equal rating, for this to be an exact science.

 

If two people find each other attractive, that's that to me.

I am chunky curvy consider myself always the one who is at the lower end of looks when i date, but i am also ex military and have the capacity to knock guys out of the water in peak condition.....physically fit guys whom i consider good looking (not many guys arent ,if you look deep enough) have asked me for dates, every person has something they are good at or attractive traits or quirks or looks.... accept for dicks of course who are after sex and think curvy women are desperate..... i guess the guys attrcted to me see something else besides my looks, unless of course they are dicks then they dont really matter...i agree with iking looks are subjective and no indication of a persons worth....if you are attracted you're attracted, and every person prefers something another might not........deb

There is another part to this where they get the people all dolled up and the numbers are pretty much matched too, you can try to find it if you want.
