I think there's a real tragedy in the way straight men don't see themselves the same way that people who are attracted to men see them. If you ask a straight man to describe what an attractive man looks like, there's very little variety - the masculine male ideal is tall, broad-shouldered, square-jawed with a cleft chin and built of sculpted muscle. The stereotypical image of an Alpha Male, someone whom he could respect, and envy.
And sure, there are plenty of women, gay men and people of all sorts who are attracted to to this specific type, even exclusively attracted to it, there is so much more variety in this, both in the tastes and their subjects.
The stereotype of "hot wife, ugly husband"-couples was drawn from the observations of straight men, from their own perspective. Women going after men that men find unattractive makes no sense to them, and they figure that women are willing to overlook being ugly if a man's funny, smart or rich enough. If a woman insists that she's attracted to a specific man who isn't attractive by their standards, they'll assume that she's lying.
The tragic part is when a man who believes himself to be ugly grows bitter over this, developing a foul personality which people do find repulsive, and then uses their repeated experiences of being romantically rejected as proof that they're physically unattractive, insisting that surely women would overlook his heinousness if only he was tall and muscular enough, and had the right bone structure. The self-feeding vicious cycle of being a bitter incel is born.
The thing about "ugly men with a good personality can still be attractive" is that they're usually not even ugly. Some people do genuinely find fat and hairy men, thin and delicate men, short men and feminine men attractive. There's as much variety as in cheese, you can't compare aura to brie. And just like in cheese, as long as you're not toxic, somebody's into that. You just need to find the right wine to compliment it.
this, exactly this
Some of y’all think that holding hands and sharing a bed is immediately romantic, and this is why people cannot differentiate between romantic, platonic, and familial forms of love.

Hoy tengo la necesidad de compartir con ustedes la agonía que vive mi tierra, nos estamos muriendo, mi tierra se muere, el mar se muere, toda la biodiversidad, el ecosistema marino se muere y mi gente ya no tiene que comer y sí, les llamo mi gente, porque somos todos sureños, porque no podemos hacer la vista gorda y mirar hacia un lado haciendonos los hueones, es mi gente, yo como de ellos, ellos nos proveen de alimento, ellos son los mayores proveedores de pescados y mariscos de Santiago, del país y el gobierno y la tele nos quiere hacer creer que es un alga que contamina a los mariscos, pero no son solo los mariscos lo que se están muriendo, han varado ballenas, han muerto infinidades de especies de pájaros en peligro de extinción, playas llenas de peces muertos eso, eso NO ES MAREA ROJA.
En marzo, 9 toneladas de salmones muertos fueron arrojados a 75 millas del continente, por las salmoneras de la región, justo frente a las costas de Chiloé y después de 25 días comenzó la mortandad de especies, nos están cortando las manos!! LA MAREA ROJA NO MATA ESPECIES, NI PECES NI MARISCOS, NI NADA!! Esto es producto del envenenamiento que provocaron las salmoneras, envenenaron el mar con todos esos salmones llenos de químicos que fueron a arrojar, para qué?, con qué fin? y para que decir las miles de personas que fueron despedidas desde las plantas de procesamiento de las mismas salmoneras.
Puerto Montt, Calbuco, Maullin, Los Muermos, Fresia, Llanquihue, Puerto Varas, Chiloé, Frutillar, infinidades de localidades ya no tienen combustible y como es de esperar en estas situaciones, comenzará la especulación. El Gobierno quiere entregar un bono de 100 mil pesos a los pescadores, mariscadores, feriantes, etc. que ya llevan más de un mes sin poder trabajar, ellos creen que con 100 mil pesos, podrán comer, pagar sus cuentas, movilizarse? Cuánto gastaron en enviar a Fuerzas Especiales de Carabineros a Chiloé por aire, si ese dinero lo hubiesen usado para ayudar a mi gente las cosas serían diferentes, el Sur siempre ha sido el patio trasero del país, siempre hemos sido menospreciados, abandonados, olvidados o como quieran llamarlo, pero mi gente se cansó, se cansó de ser abusado por los peces gordos de las salmoneras, por el gobierno, por los poderosos de este país, nos cansamos de ser siempre menospreciados, mi gente va a luchar, porque si por algo nos caracterizamos los sureños es por ser testarudos, porfiados, cargantes.
¡AGUANTE SUREÑOS, EL SUR SE PRIVÓ!
DIFUNDIR PARA QUE NO NOS SIGAN MINTIENDO, MIENTRAS MÁS GENTE ENTERE, MEJOR!
