I'm pretty sure is because deep down, they feel insecure about a man being better looking than they are. Women are already insecure about their looks and self-image as it is, due to centuries of being bombarded by beauty magazines, weight loss, beauty expectations and standards, female actresses, and singers, beautiful women and unattainable bodies everywhere you go, etc. Whether they want to admit it or not, they all have been affected by this bombardment. So, many women, feel the need to bring down the looks of a man, who is obviously good looking, is a way for them to feel better about themselves. They feel the need to lower his value.

For them, a man is supposed to be ugly and macho, not care about his appearance, just be himself. When they see a guy, who obviously won the genetic lottery in term of looks, they see him as trying too hard or being too metrosexual, too polished, too into himself, even though this guy, was simply born this way lol

Not surprisingly, the opposite is true with average or even below average males. They are more likely to stick up for the underdogs and say they are cute or good looking, or even better looking than the guy above, who is obviously much better looking. They go for underdog because they feel the good looking guy, doesn't need any sympathy or praise, or even help for that matter. Why boost his ego, when he already knows he is good looking? He doesn't any help or praise. Is like trying to help a millionaire, he don't need our help

It is a coping mechanism. They know that kind of guy wouldn't even look at them, so they feel need to bring him down and say he aint all that.

We don't...LOL...are you upset we didn't all like the guy in that one vid? Why, do you know him? Look, we all have different tastes, different things we like, and don't. I actually pretty much thought that one vid was a bit of a joke and the guy was dressing/being campy to bring a smile, didn't the title even say something about joking?

Don't be offended, we just don't all find the same things handsome in a man. Even beyond the clothes and the hamming it up.
