Yup, that's "internet standards" in a nutshell.

Better to base your standards on what is actually available in real life.

So if the best you can do is a fugly girl you have to call that girl attractive?   That makes no sense.

You might as well, but that is not exactly what we are getting at.

Try "acceptable" rather than "attractive".  The alternative is to be celibate, which is unnatural and IMO very unhealthy phsychologically.

Totally irrelevant point, just because one cannot afford a Ferrari does not make a Lada a good car.

But does that mean you regard everything short of a Ferrari as a shitty car?  Because if you cannot afford one that seems like condemning yourself to be miserable your whole life.

Well damn, then I must just not realise my luck in doing better than #4.

And as for the Ferrari quote, well you are the one who said fitness model My point applies equally with an Audi A4 instead :p

I'm with Yi, fugliness is not a function of whether you have banged someone or not.

Well let's just say I find the cute blonde far from fugly and we obiviously differ on that opinion.

All four of the girls look ok or better to me; once that criterion is met it then becomes a matter of their personality, mental stability, understanding that a bloke likes to go to the pub to bullshit about history with his mates.....and so on

I respect Arky's opinion of her looks.

I for one, think Monica Bellucci looks like a greasy wop, but others like her. And that is cool.

The weird thing is that I have known far more girls that think that sort of thing is cute/endearing than would refuse to date you for it, including plenty of HOTT ones.  I think most chicks are drawn to men they perceive to be "smart" or erudite or whatever.

I think a number of us are in agreement that she's the least attractive one, but I think it's a stretch to call her "fugly".

Not exactly. It is a matter of defining what you are basing "fugly" and "attractive" on.

If your range is based on a solid diet of supermodels and famous actresses, the "fugliest" one of which is likely to be better-looking than anyone you actually know in real life, this skews the perception in a way not conducive to future contentment.

Mmmm butter.

I can find something beautiful in anyone.
