Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"Why would you date someone that you think is unattractive? Again, beauty is completely subjective cos someone might think the person you're dating is not particularly attractive.(Original post by Theoneoranro)
No offence but I wouldn't date an ugly girl, neither would any of the average/ good looking guys I know. The only guys I know that would date ugly girls are the fat ugly guys. -
Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"In my experience what you're saying is complete and utter BS. Everyone says what you're saying but they don't really act on it when it comes to it. In my experience people will not date someone they don't find attractive no matter what they're personality is like (unless they're rich or something. In the end of the day men are programmed to look for parters which are attractive (and women to a certain extent) and women look for partners with money. Once you go into the real adult world you'll find all this to be true 95% of the time. In high school/college kids just date each other based on looks because money doesn't matter at that time. Personality only plays a part once the relationship gets going.(Original post by Wild@Heart)
There are always people who are naturally very attractive, that's just how the world works. But I think putting people into categories as either ugly or pretty is just going to give people lower self esteem, less confidence and encourage bullying. Does it really matter anyway? There's more important things in life than looks and I'm pretty sure the starving children in poorer countries couldn't care less what they looked like...I don't see why we judge people all the time on their looks. Personality does count. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
We naturally look for partners who would benefit the offspring.
You can all talk like 'looks don't matter blah blah' and it's a really nice thing to say but you know it's not true. -
Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"True, if everyone thought you were attractive then every girl/guy would go after you, but in the real world you'll find only some girl/guys like you. But still if you take someone and show him to 100 girls and you find that 80 of the 100 girls find that person attractive, you can say that he is attractive. If you take another person and 50 of the 100 girls like him, you'll say he's average and if you take another guy and show him and only 2 girls like him, you can say he's ugly.(Original post by jamboogy)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but you can't deny some people are more attractive on a bigger scale. -
Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"Then you must be related to her. That's my rationalization and I'm sticking to it.(Original post by dinrah04)
I don't know about ugly, but I know some people are genuinely not visually attractive, people that absolutely nobody would consider attractive (sample size being school) but I'm sure as it's subjective even they'll find somebody. I mean everyone goes on about Megan Fox but I can't even see what's so good about her. I'm sure for every top model, we can find a million people in the world who find them unattractive.
Most people are just plain though, depending upon where you go. By "plain" I mean uninteresting - probably a bit worse version of "average looking".
Social mobility tends to promote outbreeding and hotties. Poverty and social immobility tends to promote inbreeding and uglies. -
Guys, stay away from this type!(Original post by Rosalind)
I have an ex that would disprove this theory
Only attractive thing about him was the size of his wallet

Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"
Everyone has their own opinions of what's ugly and what isn't, so in that way, yes, there is such thing as ugly. The thing is, though, it's so subjective. What I find ugly someone else WILL find attractive. There is no definitive image of the word 'ugly' because its meaning changes from person to person.

Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"I cant even argue with that.(Original post by im so academic)
I firmly believe that ugly people do exist. Also, there are naturally beautiful people and no amount of "artificial" beauty can change that. This includes changing your clothes, your haircut etc. Yet time and time again I read posts on TSR where users say that one of these things:
*Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
*Someone will like you for who you are
*You're not ugly, you just have low self-esteem/confidence
*Personality counts
and other things.
This leads me to think "do genuinely ugly people exist"? It seems that many members of TSR give the impression that genuinely ugly people don't exist and it's a matter of changing one's clothes or one's attitude to life. Then you will be beautiful if you make changes like that.
Is this true TSR?

Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"You huge crawler. That's a similar way to how Hitler came to power.(Original post by I have a question)
Anything you say is true im so academic. -
Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"I'm not at all related to her? How can this be, she's not even of my race. Your point made no sense at all(Original post by Raiden10)
Then you must be related to her. That's my rationalization and I'm sticking to it.

Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"Are you making an analogy between I'msoacademic and Hitler?(Original post by Picnic1)
You huge crawler. That's a similar way to how Hitler came to power.

Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"By soul I meant personality. What makes you "you", your character, your spirit, your soul.(Original post by EnigmaticSpirit)
You have it backwards. SOME ugly people are likely to be villians or 'evil' people because they are ostracised by society, particulary western society. Also, you are relying on the concept of a necessary existence of a 'soul' to back up your statements. What argument could you hope to propose for the existence of such a supernatural thing?
Jeez, can't believe I had to clarify that for you. You'd think with a username like yours, you'd be one of the first to catch on.

Re: "Genuinely ugly people don't exist"Okay, now you can stop making countless threads on a person's physical attractiveness. Honestly, I think most of us are bored of them.(Original post by im so academic)
And there you have it.
