Can't stand "Pretty" girls

I'm quite sexy (or at least I used to be)

ok maybe I wasn't that sexy but I had that something, I was approached by women more often that I did the approaching. I don't say that to brag but to bring light to the fact that us guys can be hot too

aside from that we bring the long term stuff like income (even in todays modern world) and if you ask most guys about love making we feel as though we do as much if not more of the heavy lifting

My beef is not with good looking women in general but with those who trade on their good looks

lemme see if I can make sense of what I'm trying to say with an example

some time ago I work a second job at the post office sorting mail, there were two women there one, let's call her Sultry Sarah was sexy as anything you ever saw. Not pretty in the classic sense but she wore the label, all the guys were trying to get next to her, cept me. I wasn't imune or nothing, I just had a couple of good relationships going at the time and didn't feel the need to jump through the hoops she held out.

Then there was Ordinary Olga. She was much much prettier than Sarah, but she laughed at what she thought was funny and was polite when it was corny. Imagine Angilina Jolie in a humble fat chic's body.

In the course of my life I have seen the both of them time and again.

I tend to perfer Olga.

When I say "pretty" don't think looks but status

I can't stand pretty girls

btw the fa chic thing

didn't any offense

it's just well you know

 

Eh. I was just picked out of a line-up for a particular job based on my looks. I wasn't expecting it, and it was weird to see them gloss over my friends and offer the position to me. I hadn't realized they were hiring like that and it made me feel bad that my friends were denied the opportunity I was handed.

I don't think it's a matter of looks, I think it's a matter of character. I've known amazingly wonderful women who were so gorgeous I wanted to hate them, and I've known the cattiest, most demanding cunts that were also horrific to look at.

 

Absolutley

 

Yeah it is personality, eventually. But I have to admit that I am also partial to good looking women. Back in the day, when I was dating looks seemed to dominate my choices. Ended up with some real nut jobs, but damned where they ever good looking nut jobs. Now that the dating scene is far from over, I still enjoy seeing good looking women, maybe more than ever. I don't care about their personality since I'm not in a position to have a relationship. So they are eye candy, that's all. I'm shallow and damned proud of it!

 

Looks are temporary... character is forever. And the fading looks of a "pretty" person can often reveal a shallow, unlikeable personality, whereas the aging of a pleasant character is forever reflected unchanged in that person's face.

 

But on the one hand you are criticising people who "trade off their looks" and the other boasting that you get attention from women based on your own looks?

I am not trying to diss you intentionally, but maybe the kind of people who attract each other deserve each other.

On your main point, I worked with a girl who was not really pretty in my opinion but took a great deal of care in her appearance (hair extensions, wore high fashion to work in a telesales job, was always very well turned out, make up always perfect, etc). She was extremely flirtatious and would always be trying to get people to cover her, even do her job for her. She also had a drink driving ban and wasnt that nice a person behind the veneer

There was another girl who wasnt really that big, but would probably be classed as overweight by most people (say 5 4 and 150/160 lbs) and who was naturally exceptionally pretty. She was quirky, funny, and sometimes a bit sulky, but liked by almost everyone.

And then in my old office there was a girl who looked like a model. (and had modelled a bit when she was younger.)
She spent nearly all her spare money on clothes, again always looked "a million dollars". She was averagely good at her job and did her best, but just really saw it as a means to an end rather than a "career".
She also had dated the same guy since she was 15, had a younger brother with health issues she helped care for and her main ambition was to be a mum. She was really caring (if anyone in my office complained of feeling under the weather she'd make honey and lemon and buttered crumpets as an example) and one of the sweetest natured people I have ever met. Of all the people in my old town she is the only person who calls me every few months to ask how I am.

Another woman in my office weighed 300 lbs, was quite intelligent but had a terrible attitude in her job (told every she hated her job and was about to leave and then was shocked every time she got passed over for promotion) She was in my opinion a basically good person, but she was socially clumsy, treated other people with hostility and belittled junior employees that worked in her dept.

The moral of my story is that people are all different.

Some fit into stereotypes that we all hold in our minds quite well, but most don't.

 

Wasn't boasting but admiting that I have been on ther other side of the table
Thing is that I didn't expect any kind of special treatment because you thought I looked good. I expected to have expected of me any thing you'd expect of equals

here's my thing

I get excited about good looking women just like any guy

but

but when you ask for/expect/demand special treatment just because you're hot pisses me off and in fact turns me off

Let me use celebs as an catalyist

twin sisters grew up in different towns, there are identical, both Angilina Jolie/ Lara Croft look alikes

one says 'in oreder to date me you have to present me with diamonds, your income has to be xxx dollars a year, etc,then I'll consideer if I like you or not

the other sister says 'Hi, I also collect Star was crap"

gimme the star wars girl

 

What's the old saying?

"For every girl you look at and go, 'Wow, she's so super hot... I can't believe that guy is with her,' half of the time said guy is tired of being with the cranky bitch."

 

Pretty girls can be bitches, pretty guys can be wankers. Ugly girls can be bitches, ugly guys can be assholes. Pretty girls can be lovely, can be good natured but boring, can be scared of flying, can be too possessive, can be fantastic cooks...

There is no correlation between how people look and their basic personality that I have ever found in my limited experience of 33 years on earth.

 

that's why I put pretty in quotes, so you'd understand it as a status or a title.
the "Pretty" girls I singled out is in fact a bitch, but a subset or type of bitch who expects social or actual compensation for the fact that she's good looking

 

What's the old saying? "Show me a hot married chick and I'll show you a dude that's sick of putting up with her shit"? Yeah, that's the one.

 

Dude, I just said that.

Stop ignoring me!

 

I'm not ignoring you. I expanding it to all men coupled with hot women. You said it first, I simply improved on it.

How about this one: "Show me one popular funny ex-GI on a message board and I'll show you an admin sick of putting up with his shit."

And by that admin, I mean Smeth.

 

Who? Oh. Yeah, I think he changed his name.

"Colonic" or something.

 

I will personally eye-fuck the hell out of 18-24 year olds who have less clothing on than common sense, but who the fuck wants to put up with their OMG Barbie, wanna-be thug life, vapid personalities? I am dating my gf now not because of looks (tho she is a beautiful woman with huge... tracks of land), but because she is the coolest/most awesome chick I know.

Jazz and planster are right, no matter how hot a girl is, someone is tried of her shit. That's just human nature, looks only carry you so far.

People have baggage, just how much of that baggage you are willing to put with is up to you.

 

I don't know. Seems like something dudes tell themselves to make them feel better about where they're at. I think that it's probably even odds whether hot women have husbands who are sick of their shit more than less hot women do.

Is this going to be one of those threads where we start making unflattering assumptions about people when we'd rather be fucking them?

I don't necessarily begrudge folks for using their attractiveness to get ahead, or to get head. Don't hate the player, hate the game and all that. I don't hate people who are naturally athletic for using that athleticism to get ahead, nor do I hate people who are smart for using their intelligence to get ahead. I do think that people who let a lady's (or gent's) attractiveness determine how that lady is to be treated are chumps, though.

 

Hey, I'm not going to start the circlejerk, but I'll do color commentary.

"...and they're off! Fappity fap fappin'."

 

In the words of Ice Cube, "a bitch is a bitch is a bitch is a bitch is a bitch"

Whether she is nice looking or not is not much to do with anything I can see.

Other than perhaps a slightly larger portion of the male population might be prepared to put up with it.

 

sooooo..... there are of beautiful people that are ugly for one reason or another, and there are ugly people that are beautiful for one reason or another? am I getting that right? Kind of the heart of the thread IMHO.
