I was thinking the same thing but couldn’t figure out a polite way to say it.
The pictures are being withheld for your own safety!
Judging from the way rabid homophobes here in America are revealed to be homosexuals in denial on a regular basis, I suspect they all looked at the guys and nodded in unison. "Yes, Abdul, much too handsome. Mmmmm, very, very handsome. We must take pictures. For evidence! "
This happened to me the last time I was off-planet.
Note to board: Vogons do not have the same sensibilities as do other sapient beings.
I was able to secure some nice 8 x 10 glossies for my modeling portfolio, so it wasn’t a total loss.
Will the rampant anti-male sexism on the Dope ever end?
“No Homo”?
Is that one of those legal/latin terms you learn in law school 101?
Yes. To reiterate in plain language, there is no way this story is accurate.
First they came for the too good looking
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t just too good looking
Then they came for the too witty and charming
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t just too witty and charming
Then they came for the too good looking, witty, charming sex beast with a massive penis
and there was no one left to speak for me.
You’ve not heard this one? I have a variant I tack on when I tell my stepson I love him: “No pedo.”
I hope the story is BS, I really do, but the morality police are real. And brutal. Sometimes it’s hard not to judge.
Huh. I can’t tell when a man is handsome or not, I always assumed that meme was popular because the guy looked relaxed and happy while running a marathon. I had no idea that was popular because he was handsome. I’m glad I’m into women, where I can tell who is attractive and who isn’t.
Seriously, dude? I’m so tired of hearing this. It’s always trotted out by guys who feel the need to prove their heterosexuality: “I’m so blind to male attractiveness that if you presented me with a picture comparing Michael Moore to Ridiculously Photogenic Guy, I would be literally unable to tell you which one has more sex appeal!” :rolleyes:
If you can’t tell which humans are the attractive ones, whether they have penises or vaginas, you’re literally blind, have Asperger’s, or belong to another species.
“So I beat them to death with my massive penis and left.”
It shouldn’t be that hard to understand, I mean, you like what you like, right? And you only tangentally pay attention to stuff you couldn’t care less about. I can watch a basketball game with someone and they get all up about “OOhh! Nasty foul!” or “What a brilliant offensive strategy!” and all I see is 10 dudes running around doing amazing shit with a big orange ball. I can get all animated reading car insurance policies all day long with the same friend and…well, no I couldn’t because he’d have drowned in his own drool from being bored.
I can identify a male from 100 yards away with 90% accuracy (some dames is too butch), but all I see is a human face with masculine features. It seldom crosses my mind whether or not they’re good-looking–just threatening or nonthreatening. The phrase, “I guess looks don’t count for much.” was almost certainly coined by a dude because we just don’t understand what the ladies consider to be physically attractive, in general. It really has nothing to do with proving the hetero, in fact, most guys I know think it odd (and some also think it’s hot) when women check each other out.
But it’s true. Sometimes you can be completely oblivious to the good looks of somebody who you’re not attracted to.
I’m a straight woman and can still pick out attractive women. :dubious:
(And yes, Ridiculously Photogenic Running Guy became a meme because he was totally perky and photogenic during a race, but a number of those photo memes went right for the “wow, seriously cute!” theme.)
Women seem to been different that way. Women check each other out and judge each other’s appearance; non-gay men seldom do (at least in our culture), unless the man in question is hideous, has a huge scar, prison tattoos, or something like that.
I really can’t tell. I’m sorry if that doesn’t fit me in the little ignorant box you’ve developed for the entire human race but I honestly can’t tell.
Just to fuck with you further, I was looking up handsome men on the internet and apparently Michael Cera is considered handsome. Fuck, I had no idea.
Also I watched Blue Valentine a few years ago and loved it. A few months later I found out that Ryan Gosling is considered a sex symbol. I had no idea the entire movie that he was considered attractive.
I don’t think I have autism because I can tell when a woman is attractive, I just can’t tell in men. Its fairly cool. In fact, far from being a homophobe, I’d love it if I were gay. I’d be chasing ugly guys and thinking I was doing great for myself.
‘look at this handsome devil I just found’ and everyone would be ribbing me behind my back for my terrible taste in men.
He makes me hard and I’m purely hetero.
ETA: I’d posit this says more about Mikey than it does me, though.
