    I’m not miserable at all. I can only generate thoughts about what I think about people on this site by what they say. Some are nasty and sexist towards women. I really can’t think positively about them. That isn’t emotionally nasty, it’s reality.

    I wouldn't call it nasty. I find the art rather aesthetically pleasing (another subjective label to compliment the subject), for all that it is adult oriented.

    Good looking ppl don't date ugly ppl unless there is millions of pounds involved .

    Bang goes your theory.

    Good looking ppl are nicer because they are happy in themselves. There is a reason that most criminal are ugly. Think about that.

    Maybe that’s your shallow narrow minded view and that wasn’t my point at all.

    Observation is all. Ijust don't see a couple where one is good looking and the other an ugly duckling.

    You can work at your personality, you can't work with your face unless you get plastic surgery which is becoming shockingly popular amongst women. Some of the trout pouts isee these days are utterly horrendous.

    Your comments are shallow and narrow minded, I don’t even know what you look like but to me you are ugly and if you posted your picture, even if you were good looking, you would still be ugly to me.

    I can't agree there. Talk to any woman who has a dating profile and is even just slightly overweight. They are bombarded with insults by men all of the time.

    Then why has the standard of beauty varied so widely across times and cultures?

    I'm speaking generally not absolutely., Obviously there are exceptions to the rule but the point is, you can change your personality, if you want to.

    I'm not aware of that at all. Perhaps you can give me some examples..or perhaps not.

    Take a look at art throughout history, including paintings of people who were considered beautiful for their time. As another example, have you ever heard of a wide-mouth Champagne glass? That used to be considered the ideal breast size and was rumored to be based on the breast of Helen of Troy. How many guys do you know these days that prefer A cups as their standard of beauty?

    Catherine of Cleves's painting was considered so beautiful for its time that Henry VIII proposed to her based on the painting alone . . . and then dumped her for not looking as good as the painting. Tell me, is this your ideal girl?

    My partner isn’t very good looking. I really don’t know how to describe myself but generally the consensus is ‘pretty’. What attracted me to my partner was massive intelligence, humour, and so interesting. We spend hours talking about common interests, discussing things, and generally enjoying each others company. If I had rejected him based on looks, I would be missing out on a wonderful relationship. I am so glad I could see beyond the outer shell of people.

    Claiming a royal family member was ugly would be enough to get yourself beheaded. Of course she was considered beautiful, idont want to be hung drawn and quartered

    Henry had no problem calling people ugly. No, he was at no risk of being beheaded for it. He literally divorced her for not being good looking enough. History fail. He literally went wife shopping and chose Catherine BASED ON THIS PAINTING, and dumped her when she wasn't as good looking as the picture. So, tell me again that you think this painting is the pinnacle of beauty.

    This wouldn't exactly be the first time someone chose a partner based on more than their looks. My wife is way, way, way hotter than I am. You can't find a single person who would disagree with me on that one. I've got no problem with that. Works out in my favor.

    Please, show me a single piece of art from before, say the 1600s that matches our current ideals of female body shape. Just one would be great. You can't.

    You're not making sense. You claimed she was supposedly beautiful? If not, why post here?

    I said she was considered beautiful during her time. What aren't you comprehending? It's pretty simple.

    Maybe because the "commentator" whoever that was didn't want to be beheaded.
