    there is also the other side of the coin.
    another friend of mine is married to an average looking woman who thinks she is gods gift to mankind and she is a total arsehole.

    someone said it's usually the ones caked in make-up who are arseholes.
    a psychologist might say that the heavy make-up is hiding something...

    Most of you will probable disagree with me when i say this, but i truelly believe there is something beautiful and attractive about everyone.

    i will most definitely disagree with that.
    i have known some really ugly, vile, disgusting, evil people.
    a paedophile uncle of mine springs to mind. there was nothing beautiful and attractive about him and i think his children would agree with me on that.
    but it's nice that you try to see the best in everyone. it is a nice way to be.

    Okay well i suppose i didnt think like a situation like that tbh. However above person apart it is a weekness of mine, where i always try and find something good in people. Any guy i have been with has normally been described as say " less attractive" in the opinion of some of my friends (not that that is important tbh ) however ive regarded them as gorg. I do believe that a good personality can really make someone shine that you think there stunning. where as a person with a beautiful face can catch your eye. Remember you dont fall in love with an oil painting, you fall for the person as a whole, in simple english -- the person - personality that they are have.

    Personally speaking a personality will catch me faster than a physical apperance, i much rather speaking to someone who has something to say and opinion than an oil painting.

    As i said above there is a good quality in most. Which is why i dont understand silly threads like this where people class what they think the word beautifull means because i truelly believe there is no one explanation.

    analogies are my forte. here's another one and this one would be similar to what you have said above.

    i was doing an adult education course a few years back. there were two girls similar to my age and after a few weeks we all became friends and would go for a few drinks together and lunch and stuff.
    one of the girls (G) was a strikingly beautiful blonde and the other (D) was very good looking too.
    G was the girl lusted after by most of the men there.
    after a few weeks i came to see D in another light and fell for her. G turned out to be a complete bitch and D turned out to be one of the most beautiful girls i ever met. it was her personality i fell for and not her looks. i can still remember the day i knew that i really liked her. we were sitting down chatting and i just looked at her and knew she was the one for me.
    sadly though, it wasn't to be. i had left it too long to make a move and she had just met another man.
    we're still friends though. like i said, she was a really nice person and that was the reason i fell for her.

    then again, looks do play an important role. sitting in the nightclub last night, i turned my head several times as beautiful girls walked by. whereas they wouldn't look twice at me. (not looking for pity here. just being realistic).
    you can stick two beautiful people together, but if one of them is an arsehole, then the relationship won't work.
    personality is the key to a successful relationship.

    Proves my point perfectly, well said ;) im sure sounds silly, but you really cant beat a good personality.

    i think the older you get, the more you see this to be true.

    most people are quite fickle in their youth and, while they might find someone attractive, they wouldn't go out with them for fear of being ridiculed by their friends for going out with a "dog".

    i'm guessing the OP is a young man who has been turned down several times by beautiful women and is scared to be seen with someone lacking supermodel looks for fear of ridicule.

    to all those kids reading this. just remember that slagging your friend off for going out with a dog is pretty pointless. at least your friend is geting some, while you are probably at home knocking one out over a picture of britney spears.

    So true....in 40 or 50yrs time your/his/her looks will mean nothing - we will all be old and if you have no personality, you will be very lonely...doesn't matter how many heads you turned when you were young....:) As we get older our priorities change....I stopped wanting the dense local hot bloke & started looking at guys with a future university education, the guys wasting the weekend going chasing girls in the mall stopped looking so hot when I realised the quiet lads who had been working all weekend now owned cars, etc, etc....:)

    Lol! It's true tho - you do stop looking at the local guy/girl you fancied all through school and start looking at guys/girls with better prospects - peer pressure and therefor looks become less of an important issue....I'd go for brains & personality everytime now but when I was 13/14, it was always looks....that's what I meant...not that he had to have money....but that does always help....:p

    i think the fact that some girls are more sound than ones who are that bit prettier is cos those pretty girls sometimes know that theyr all that and thats where ther personality takes a leave of abscence.. where as average girls keep their feet on the ground.. this dosnt apply to all of course. its a hard one to explain...

    I think the person who said that people who are physically attractive can either be emotionally attractive or ugly, as can less physically attractive ones, was right on the money. Circumstances are what make people. If you've been told you're great all your life and made to feel better than other people, a skewed view of yourself will result in a skewed personality. Likewise, being put down all your life will either make you ridiculously submissive or outrageously cynical, unless other elements influencing you alter how you see yourself, and therefore how you see other people.

    It really is true, you can't love someone else unless you love yourself. But there's a difference between loving yourself and being in love with yourself.

    To be honest, a lot of people who have posted in this topic are sickening. I'm of less than average attractiveness, as far as I'm concerned. I can be a hardline, cynical bitch when I have to be. But I'm almost always willing to bend over backwards for people who need support and would do anything for my friends, I'm outgoing, I'm social. I have a brain and self respect, and I respect other people, regardless of how they look. Any of you who look down on "ugly" people so much, what makes you any better than they are? Are you just playing this dislike up so that you'll fit in? Recognise human beings as that, and nothing else really matters. You don't have to like everyone, but at least give everyone a chance to prove themselves. You never know what you're missing.

    Anyway, even the prettiest rose has thorns.

    can i also add in my own thoery along the lines of Dubguys original post on the first page. I've always thought of the "anchor" in a group of women, the fat, ugly, wicked one, who drags down her attractive friends because she has been treated a bike all her life by men. She then of course makes her friends life, and anyone who is trying to pull her mates - difficult. Anyone else noticed this behaviour? I've definatly noticed it on more than one occasion.

    It is assumed that the OP is talking about physical beauty? If so, "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder." What some consider beautiful, others may consider ugly (or someplace in the range between these two polar opposites), so your whole argument falls apart lacking a universally accepted definition of beauty.

    Taking an example from the opposite sex, I was watching a DVD the other day, THE LAST SAMURAI starring Tom Cruise. Many women in Stateside polls taken of celebrities have thought Tom Cruise as being handsome, yet I recall a line in the film where two young Japanese ladies thought he was ugly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    Well if you are ugly you have to develop a great personality, its nature. You must be an absolute stunner Dr. Bill!! ;)

    I'm disappointed at the amount of common sense that's invaded this thread. After Hours used to be a safe haven for broad sweeping generalisations that have no basis in reality. And with that, let me just say that it's not just beautiful women who are ugly, it's the ugly ones too.

    Stop trying to raise the standards people!

    i can see where you are coming from with the escape plan ala, girl is being chatted up by boy. she has a pre-arranged deal with her friend, where her friend comes over and drags her away, or the girl stays if she likes the boy.

    That's very true reading the ''People everyone seem to fancy/think is gorgeous execpt you'' thread. Everyone's is different so generalized comments are stupid.

    I know a girl who is really pretty, has a perfect body, does gymnastics lives in a huge mansion, her parents are millionares and she got straight As and Bs in her Leaving Cert mocks/pres. Everytime she goes out guys can't keep their eyes off ect. ect. but she is a complete bitch. She won't be seen in public with certain people she wouldn't be seen in a fast food outlet or eating in public. She doesn't use buses because ''regular people use them''. She uses every guy she meets for their money and cars. She has to be the centre of attention at all times and even slept with my friends ex boyfriend andc came back the next day boasting about it to her, laughing in her face. A truely ugly horrible person.

    I've done it. But I got the "Look of FEAR"(tm) first. Rare circumstances call for rare actions and all of that. But in general, no I've never seen that kind of thing commonly done on either side tbh. Only as an "escape route" really.

    Then, I never hung around in "mainstream" clubs so perhaps it's different there.

    That's exactly the kind of person that creates this impression imho.

    Rich people eat better food, have better access to heatlh facilities/sports clubs, can afford better clothes/hairdressers/make-up etc. So, rich people tend to look relatively better than someone of the same natural attractiveness than someone poor.

    Conversely, people from rich backgrounds are more likely to have been spoiled as children. Having parents that work long hours and lead 'society' lifestyles means they're often deprived of a proper upbringing and tend towards materialism (hardly surprising given that their parents display of love for them as children was typically materialistic).

    So rich people tend to be "better looking" and are more likely to be spoiled. Hardly surprising that there's a lot of spoiled, good looking kids out there during 'Celtic Tiger' Ireland then is there?

    Of course you'll find lovely and/or ugly people coming from wealthy backgrounds too, it's just less likely. I'm sure if personality was easily quantified that the statistics would show this.

    I'm going to have to agree with the Op but with slight re-phrasing.

    Ugly girls tend to be ugly natured due to the fact they cant help but know it.
    Fat girls tend to be nicer since they have a slight hope that they can someday be attractive.
    Plain girls tend to swing towards the dull area.
    Supermodel looks seem to breed an attitude of "I am better and therefore un-touchable".

    Not always but most times. We all grow out of it though, and lately I have been having better dates with better looking girls then I would have in the past simply because all the other blokes they know are losers with no drive.

    unfortunately in this scenario, you're dealing with the breed of women i call dogs. this is not related to their outward appearance, but to their pack mentality and inability to think for themselves. all opinions, preferences and tastes are formed through group approval, and if the group decides the guy isn't good enough, the girl is hauled away and berated.
    personal choice doesn't come into question. defy the standards of the group and you end up with no friends.

    bit sad really...
