I've been told I was "unconventionally attractive." I wonder if that is synonymous with beautifully homely?

Ugly is a guy with reptile skin and no teeth.

What prompts these people to say you’re ugly? I have a sneaking suspicion you mention it a wee bit too often.


And the reddit ones were on reddit amiugly, non of the women posting get negative posts but all I got was people saying yeah you’re ugly.


Seems to me that might be the perfect place for trolls to gather, to defecate. Asking random people on the internet might not be the best measurement for accuracy.

That's Bang-on accurate, Blackicmenace.

People on the Internet tend to show their idiot side.

"Bedroom eyes," in women, appear shy on the surface----but there's a little wink which emanates from each of them which could be evoked at any time.

It's one of those sorts of things where you "have to be there."

One really can't pin this sort of thing down. One can't take a picture of it.

One can probably find "bedroom eyes" in old movies with seduction scenes.

I message them and they like sorry your ugly, or sorry I don’t find you attractive.

Not finding someone attractive is not the same as thinking they are ugly.

The definition of not attractive is : with an ugly appearance.

Attractive is pretty or beautiful or handsome not attractive is the opposite of attractive. It means they don’t at all find me attractive and could imagine kissing me.

I dont know you could see being told your not attractive as different the. Ugly it’s just a nicer way of saying it.

Let's apply some simple logic here.

If you view the phrase "not attractive" and similar phrases as synonymous with "ugly" but I view the phrase "not attractive" and similar phrases as non-synonymous with "ugly" then at least one person does not think "not attractive" does not mean ugly, and thus if I were to tell you that I thought you that I didn't find you attractive, I would not mean that I thought you are ugly.

So if you asked me out and I told you I didn't find you attractive, you would be incorrect to think I am telling you that I thought you were ugly.

Here is an example.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt

He is definitely not ugly by my standards or the standards of western society. In fact he's rather good looking. But I personally don't find him attractive as far as choosing a mate goes.

He's certainly not a "model" type. He's a pretty regular-looking guy.
