Why aren't men called butterfaces?

I’m putting my hand up as the only person from Australia on here that seems to have heard of the prawn thing. I haven’t heard it used by anyone I know since I was about about 14 though. Back then I didn’t realise it was referring to ‘good body, bad head’, and thought all guys could be compared to some species of sea creature. “Oh, he’s a lobster. Phwoar.”

And they can’t do much about their faces, anyway; unlike dumpy women who eat as much of anything they want and still think they’re doing some guy a crucified-Jesus favor by being his girlfriend.

But, as the quote above testifies, that’s just human nature (as is my reation to overreaching vanity to ask “in what funhouse mirror do you look and see yourself as hot?”)

Jesus, what’s with the hostility? Is a dumpy or otherwise unattractive woman supposed to be grateful that some guy wants to date her?

I’ve never heard the term “butterface.” Call me a traditionalist, but I prefer “hag.”
