Paris Hilton doesn't do it for me physically. Her personality just seals the deal as far as I'm concerned.

I suppose this qualifies me as a lonely Kleenex jockey in the eyes of ATOT because I don't have a raging boner for every piece of ass that gets bandied around on here. It's called "personal preference", folks. Grow up already.

Not at all - obviously my post was a generalization, and there's no such thing as objective beauty. That said, I do think the categorical statement that she's "ugly," as distinguished from merely saying, as you have, that one doesn't find her attractive, almost invariably springs from insecurity. By way of illustration, I have never, even in the height of her fame, found Cindy Crawford attractive, but that doesn't mean I'd call her ugly (many people would have said she was the most beautiful woman in the world at one time), just that, for whatever reason, she doesn't click for me.

FWIW, my GF looks nothing like Paris Hilton, but I have to say (and my GF agrees, as it happens) I think Paris has one of the most beautiful faces in the world - I don't think I've seen a bad pic of her - and from what I've seen in the infamous video, her body is just as perfect.

TIA! :D

I've seen their pics before and can vouche for them(Muy bonita). I'm surprised any woman posts their pics on here as certain people have a bad habit of calling them attention whores or yet they proclaim they would not hit it, yet the last piece of ass they got was when their finger slipped through the TP.

I disagree. There are a number of women out there who are just godawful ugly, just like there are guys who are equally ugly. Telling such an ugly girl that she is beautiful may be doing her a disservice, as it perpetuates a myth and sets her up for a fall later on.

These women become cat ladies. Recluses you only hear about, when animal control gets called in to clean up their place after 100+ cats have used it as their litterbox.

A lot of ATOT members ARE in high school though!

I agree with your point, and knew that by giving an example (Paris Hilton), people here would reply to the example as opposed to providing logical answers to your questions.

I've also come to accept that this is how Anandtech is. If someone wants to call someone like Lindsay Lohan ugly (a strong word IMO, as opposed to merely saying, "She's not my type") then so be it. If they feel better about themselves for calling a girl ugly (possibly the psychologal term 'projection' applies here) then so be it.

There's a difference between saying that somebody's looks are not to your preference and in sitting there denouncing everything about that person,pronouncing them "fugly" and attributing negative personality traits to people you don't even know based on a 2D image posted on the internet.


Seriously,a lot of you guys wouldn't recognize a good woman if you tripped over her.

As far as Paris goes,I think she's stunning,in thinking it over aside from her slimness I think her coloring is what makes her gorgous,her hair and eye color,her skin tone and texture.

Projection

8b. The attribution of one's own attitudes, feelings, or desires to someone or something as a naive or unconscious defense against anxiety or guilt.

Similar to what DonVito posted.

sheesh. i can't believe this is even an argument. NOT everyone finds the same women attractive.

I think she is UGLY. She is way to skinny (looks like a crack whore) and i do not like blonde's. Yes i would merry her IF i had a chance. hell why not? she is rich! but other if she was poor hell no i wouldn't.

Not everyone thinks being tall, skinny to the point you see rib bones and Blondie makes a women hot. I like women who are short, have some curves to them and that wear glasses (yeah thats odd. I have always been attracted to women that wear them) and red hair.

am i a Kleenex jerking ATOT member because of it? NOPE. i just find a different women attractive then some.


edit: NOT to mention she comes off as a really dumb person with NO common sense. that would drive me nuts. NO matter how hot she was.

That's another debate, we need to review the video for further examination. :p

As has been rehashed many times in this thread your standard of beauty differs from ours so of course there is going to be a difference of opinion. I'm White but I prefer dark skinned women (Black, Spanish, Italian, etc). Therefore, blonde haired, flat chested, no booty Paris Hilton does not conform to my ideal of a perfect woman.

Beyonce, for instance, is infinitely more attractive to me. I don't have to subscribe to your notion of a perfect woman because I have my own standards that suit me fine.

heh not my type.

In fact i have never really cared for tall women (then again i'm 5'6"). I'm not saying nothing wrong with tall skinny blonde's they are just not something i care for.

but we still love you geekbabe!

Lol,that's totally cool:)

At any rate saying that somebody's looks aren't to your preference is fine, insulting them up and down and assigning horrid names to them is very cool imho:)

Yeah me too. There is just something about a woman that likes to insult people and call them horrid names.

Well we know 'personal preference' but 'ugly' is a harsh word but to each his own I guess.

She to me isn't ugly. She is not in my definition of 'beautiful'. She is too thin and her face bone structure does not do anything for me. But she is far from ugly.
