Not defensive. Not taking it personally. I've never had a problem attracting men. I've also dated men that ranged vastly in looks. I just don't really understand how anyone can say that women care about looks more than men do. And once again - this is not saying that men are shallower or more superficial. It is what it is.
Probably because they've never had anybody they've been attracted to be physically attracted to them or call them cute or hot, so they think women are too picky.
Makes sense, right?

You are in college. It's a Thursday. Are you gonna stay home and whine on the internet or are you going out?
Well, college for me was before the internet (before it was fast anyway). College is a rough place for guys who have problems with women. Women that young REALLY only care about looks. I mean now, almost age 40, I'll admit it's a bit different, but back then, forget it. I mean, I can remember trying to talk to women and they would just totally ignore me. I mean that still sorta happens every now and then, but not often and not so blatantly.
Even the nice girls in college chased after the hot dudes. Back then, a lot of those women were after just sex too.
You can see it that way if you want to. But I would say that the majority of people would agree that men care more about looks than women. And I would also say that the majority of men that put all the blame for everything on women are bitter.
I actually agree with you, BUT, guys that are good looking do better with women. It's a fact of life.
It's not socially acceptable for men to "beautify" themselves. But guys put a lot more money and time into their looks than you might imagine. The only guys who don't put time and money into their looks are guys who are great looking (and know it) or so ugly that they don't see a point in trying (same as ugly women who let themselves become slobs). Most guys spend time in the gym, money on haircuts, money on teeth whitening, their entire life savings on hair transplants and hair loss medication, time in the sauna to try and clear out their pores, etc. Guys are just more discreet about their beautification. If you're ever at guy's house and you're using his bathroom, go through his drawers and you'll probably see tweezers, teeth whitening kits, topical acne medication, etc.
Understood, but the beauty industry for men doesn't hold a candle to women's. This is because our looks are more important than men's are. I'm not saying women don't care at all (that would be ludicrous), just that men care more.
If there were a guy who had all of his male friends coming up to him and telling him "Hey. Raena, Jillabean, and Dewdrop think you're really cute."
Then, do you think he'd be on an Internet Forum complaining that women care about looks too much?
Maybe he is just feeling around the forum. Hmmmm..........
