surely if they are ugly they aren't attractive though?

Some ugly men can be attractive, as can fat or short men.
But then I am not one for the six pack and tan kind of look.
I like my men interesting

TheCrackFox · 15/05/2009 20:04

Hmm, what if they have a massive cock? Would that make you change your mind?

Lulumama · 15/05/2009 20:05

lots of ugly men attractive/ charismatic and sexy

was once chatted up by a short , bald and not very handsome man, but by god he was sex on legs.

lots of my crushes are on not very handsome men

gerard depardieue
marco pierre white
justin lee collins
dennis leary

not calssically handsome but something about them..

Lulumama · 15/05/2009 20:06

Crackfox, you just made me spray my coffee over the keyboard ! and now my nose burns !!

whooosh · 15/05/2009 20:09

Could probably do all of those but not smelly men.....

KingCanuteIAm · 15/05/2009 20:09

I don't think ugly and attractive are mutually exclusive TBH

I admit to being a bit shallow in my preferred type of man but I have never been shallow in reality IYSWIM (de-code; I have never shagged the adonis I lust after)

But TheCrackFox, how would I find out? It's not worth the risk.

I just don't find ugly. short or fat men attractive or sexy or charismatic, but then obviously my definition of 'ugly' is subjective.

It's not that I prefer 'brad pitt' type pretty boys, or tans and six packs, but I do need a tight toned body, the bulk of a taller man, and a beautiful face to look at!

I am wondering if I need to lower my standards though.

Ultimately, obviously, it's the person inside that counts, and if they're not nice people, then that will show through and make them seem ugly, but if theyre nice decent people that will shine through and make them attractive.

Interesting.....

I like Lulu

Salleroo · 15/05/2009 20:14

Depends how short, my height and they can take me against the wall.

Fat and ugly I will leave on the shelf though.

That would be pig ugly, ugly in a charismatic way could grow on you.

I like a nice bit of musculature though so fat is a definate no no.

I'm with you on this OMDB....

Ugly = No
Fat = No
Short = No

I'd rather be celibate also, 4mths now. Not bad

And even if ugly/fat/short man has a big cock, he can keep it at ugly/fat/short man with big cock...

WoTmania · 15/05/2009 20:15

You obviously haven't met the right short/fat/ugly man
My major turn on/off is voice. The wrong voice can make me go off some one in seconds. Frank Black however (all of the above)....OMG sexiest man ever when he's talking

lol sallero

I think, of the three, for me fat is the worst.

DOn't you think it's more important to rule out violent men, sexist men, dishonest men and disease-ridden men before worrying about looks?

(Oh, and no HIgh School Musical or Coldplay fans for me thanks).

Well i suppose you need to lower your idealistic standards a bit!

DH is lovely and sexy and yummy but not very tall. Probably 5 foot 7 ish and I am 5 foot 6 ish. Wouldnt swap him though. He is also not as skinny as when I met him nor does he have as much hair but I still love him.

Ugly men can be gorgeous though in personality.

Smelly men would be a turn off.

You see I wouldnt kick Danny deVito out of bed and he is neither tall nor particularly attractive!

Think you need to get to know someone til you judge them really..........

..........and look at Sophie Dahl (6ft) engaged to Jamie Cullen (about 4ft!!)

lol Claire, I agree. Big cock doesn't make up for being short, fat and ugly

Men's bodies need to beautiful sculpted works of art

Blimey, you don't ask for much.

Just count your lucky stars that you don't live in my neck of the woods - there has been a severe and devastating outbreak of Fuglytitis.
