This may make for an interesting read.

Why I won’t date hot women anymore | New York Post

The first guy's standard of "hot" appears to be models or super models. Interesting. His fiancée is "merely" beautiful. So beautiful isn't "hot"? Lol. Alrighty then.

And folks went all in on him on twitter and the blogosphere. Bahahaha.

I SAW this yesterday!!! LOL

Can you imagine being that guy and actually saying those things for publication?? He is getting roasted all over the world for his hubris.

I really hoped the writer was being sarcastic with his "merely beautiful" caption describing the wife.

However, it got so weird when it turned out that he was set up by his wife's mom, who happens to own a matchmaking agency. I got my "story planted for ad clicks" vibe that I get here sometimes.

This article is full of gut punches, really, including good-looking people doing the same stereotyping they blame others for, and this gem next to a photo of a good-looking guy who a beautiful girl began dating because she was tired of being dissed by hot guys:

Unlike the square-jawed bachelors who disrespected her, Argese is more boy-next-door in the looks department. But he’s kind and attentive.

What an ***. He's basically telling his wife..."You're beautiful...BUT not quite the best I'd hoped to end up with..."

I see no difference in this than a woman saying they would date a "normal guy"
We all pull personal judgements in our own ways when it comes to this type of topic

Yes, but hopefully we don't agree to be interviewed about them and have them published.

The only thing I've got in common and agree with him is " going for the hottest I could find " as my attitude is if you're attracted to them and can get them then why not?

With the stereotypes he's mentioned such as " can't carry a conversation, selfish and flighty " that many associate with " hot women " I'd bet he actually goes by stereotypes and brands them instead of going in with an open mind and taking them by face value ( you know like many seem to do on here and thinking they're all the same )

It also suggests to me that HIS social skills, observations etc are not up to scratch or what he thinks they are mainly by what I said above because he clearly didn't adapt and personalise when talking to the different women ( like a bloke that was in his 30s thats dating women in their 20s for example ).

Just my opinion

He looks like he's perpetually constipated. Bravo to the ladies who can stand being around him - he looks like he smells of dog farts.
