I don't think anything.

Blue4YOU · 14/10/2021 20:48

Nothing

Pontypandytaxpayer · 14/10/2021 20:49

Nothing. Why, what do you think?

equuscaballus · 14/10/2021 20:49

that its unusual

Rainbowheart1 · 14/10/2021 20:50

I don’t think anything, but then if I’m brutally honest I always find women are more attractive than men….unless that man is Chris hemsworth.

I’m straight by the way, but always think women punch below their weight no matter what the guy looks like, I don’t think I find any guy attractive other than my own man.

MrsRobbieHart · 14/10/2021 20:51

I’m not sure if even register a difference in attractiveness levels tbh.

Rainbowheart1 · 14/10/2021 20:51

Saying my own man sounds very cringey!! 🤦🏼‍♀️

XenoBitch · 14/10/2021 20:51

I think about something else. I don't give it any headspace.

Burgerqueenbee · 14/10/2021 20:51

My DH is more attractive than me, it never occurred to me that people would make any assumptions based on that alone.

TheLightSideOfTheMoon · 14/10/2021 20:51

People find different things attractive so it’s impossible to judge who’s attractive or not.

People can look flawless. Doesn’t mean everyone finds them attractive.

Bellyups · 14/10/2021 20:52

I thinks it’s unusual

Toottooot · 14/10/2021 20:53

Fit di you think aboot it?

MiloAndEddie · 14/10/2021 20:54

I don’t think anything of it but clearly others do because they’ve commented to me about the unlikely pairing me and my DH make Confused

Wombat49 · 14/10/2021 20:56

I have a lovely DH, I always look like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards.

Why does it matter to you?

Agree with this^^
HebalGerbil · 14/10/2021 20:57

I'd like to rephrase your question please.

Do you think it's weird if a good looking man isn't shallow?

There are plenty of people, of all sexes and genders, who can see past physical appearances to the person inside. It's not really unusual.

dongke · 14/10/2021 20:59

I actually think it's quite normal to see an attractive man with a less attractive women & vice versa.

Dont particularly think anything of it.

dongke · 14/10/2021 21:00

It's rarer to see 2 people who are very good looking together imo b

MiloAndEddie · 14/10/2021 21:00

Yes really! It used to really bother me but now I’m older and wiser I just tell them to do one

Shesoffbakeoff · 14/10/2021 21:01

I don’t think anything, but I think others do.

I met Dh very young, when I was the ‘Better looking one’ I didn’t feel like that, but was told it a fair bit, mainly by guys asking what I saw in him etc-nice!

Now, over 20 years later, kids and weight gain, I feel he’s got better looking and I haven’t. I definitely see people’s slightly surprised faces when they click we’re together. That sounds paranoid, but it’s true!

Whose punching in your relationship? Or would you say you’re both similar attractive wise?

But I think that’s because women have so many more tools to make them more attractive

So make up free and with wild woman hair, I’m significantly less attractive than my husband

But make up done, hair nice, decent dress etc - he gets lots of “oh you’re punching mate” comments

^almost universally this.

dongke · 14/10/2021 21:03

Yes it's much easier for a women to make her self look more attractive than a man.
