I'm basing it on life experience, full stop. Let me put it another way:

I could say to myself, "From now on I will only date Page 3 girls! Hurrah!"

Now, is there anything WRONG with me saying that? Well, of course there's nothing WRONG with it. But would I ever get a date in my life ever again? No, I would spend the rest of my life on my own, because there's no way that I am going to be pulling any Page 3 girls any time soon.

You seem to think the fact that I realise this, means I'm down on myself in some way, or that it's based on negative experiences. As I said before, I'm not down on myself at all. I do, however, inhabit something called REALITY where Page 3 girls date football players and celebrities, not bald fat blokes from Chertsey.

I mean, come on, surely everyone realises at a fairly early age that the fittest and best looking blokes end up with the fittest and best looking women? You don't need to be a genius to work it out, right from when you first start dating all you need to do is look around you.

I have no problem accepting this. There's plenty of women out there who I find sexy and attractive that I actually stand some chance of success with. I simply cannot see the point in being unrealistic to the point that some people are.. why do you think some people you see have been on dating sites for about 4 years, 5 years, 6 years, and are still moaning that they can't "find someone nice"?

Once again, this is reality. Hard as it might be to believe sometimes, women do inhabit the same reality as men.

I'm not sure about inhibiting the same reality, but I do know if I was a page 3 model (and I know alot of models, trust me) what I would look for a guy has nothing to do with his looks! I've been a fine art/mild fetish and nude photographer for over 5 years now) most just want a guy who makes a girl feel special! I have done modelling in the past...bit old now tho!
No one surely wants just a 'beauty' after all, beauty fades over the years. It's what inside that counts....unless you are planning very shallow and short term?

Beauty and attractiveness are often thought to be one and the same but for me they are worlds apart. I find lots of people beautiful, no more so than my closest of friends of either gender, but, to find them all attractive is impossible for obvious reasons.
Going back to attractiveness, my analogy is that it is like the cover of a book, it catches the eye to make you want to take the book from the shelf and open the cover, what you find there is personality and dependant on what I find depends on whether I read on or put the book back on the shelf.

I buy into what Moose has posted, to being realistic, some books have a "reserved" feel about them, you know that you won't be able to reach the shelf without a "step ladder" namely wealth, stature or popularity.

Back to the OP I think its all to do with preference and life experience to whether someone looks at size as being a factor, for me size isn't the be all and end all its whats inside that makes me want to "read on" Very Happy

Come off it, how many times have we heard the same old stuff? Anyone who says that looks don't matter and it's only personality that counts are fooling themselves.

In my youth I remember having to work with a guy who I thought had an unusually ugly face. However, we got on really well and eventually started dating, and the features that I'd originally thought were ugly, became the features that I found most attractive in him. I'm glad that my first thoughts didn't prevent me from having an enriching relationship.

I actually kind of agree with you Moose (haven't read the whole thread so not entirely sure what I'm agreeing with Wink ) Looks do play a part in it no matter how much we want to think that they don't. On average, partners get together with someone of similar looks and I don't neccesarily mean similar features (tho' my eldests bf looks scarily like her!). Beautiful celebrities more often than not have beautiful partners. Uglies usually pair with uglies. It's a natural fact based on natural selection. We can harp on about how much personality is the only thing that matters as much as we like because we do that consciously (spelling?). Looks are something we're attracted to sub-consciously, we often have little choice when it comes to our partners physical features as they are selected at a much deeper level.

David Beckham being the exception to the rule then?


(to be honest though, joking aside, I dont particularly find DB attractive, and I am sure he cant be the only bloke on the planet who finds that woman of his attractive, so it's down to individual taste again isnt it?).

If thats weird then I'm weird too.. I find guys with big builds very attractive but feel like no one likes me with a fuller figure. I think it is confidence- fear of judgement and acceptance by others- but if this thread, as well as the many others asking what people think of size, many people like fuller figures! I'm beginning to love my curves and have been much more comfortable with myself than I ever have (example- I would have NEVER posted in the "Arse Thread" before!!!)

It's nothing to do with size for me. There's either something there or not. Big, small, tall or short who cares?
