Yesterday on Single Friends I posed the question, "If you had to guess, what would you say would be the number one reason why you may get rejected y the opposite sex?"
I found the responses quite interesting. Most people focused on attitude, independence, personality...I must admit, I too named a similar attribute as to the reason why I am rejected, choosing to focus on a non-physical reason. Would that mean that we are in denial or overly confident?
A couple of group members said things like weight, and I think one person admitted that he just was not their type, but out of the 90 comments and dozen of physically non perfect people, there were literally a handful that thought that the reason was physical.
There was then a follow-up post by Butchie B. that begged for honesty when he asked the question, "How important is physical appearance."
To Butchie...it is VERY important, to others, not as much. One young lady said that looks are not extremely important, as long as they are not super facially challenged. WHAT??
Anyway, she went on to say something quite interesting...she said that many people want attractiveness in their potential mate when they are not very attractive themselves.
What do you think about that theory? Do you think that someone that is not that physically attractive by most people's standards should be able to be extremely picky when it comes to wanting an attractive mate?
What are your thoughts?
