They objectively look good to heterosexual men who like their women over 18.

It's like saying Tom Cruise looks good. Well, yeah, he's objectively a handsome guy. I'm not into dudes, but you can say he's an objectively attractive person without being into him.

The girls in the OP's link aren't objectively attractive. People don't, privately, look at those pictures and go "These are physically beautiful people". It's always weird to me when ugly people I know post selfies on Facebook and girls (and it is basically always girls) fall all over themselves to tell the girl how great she looks, even when she's 5'6, probably weighs just north of 300 lbs and has a face like a pumpkin.

Would think it's generally accepted, given all the kate upton photos posted on here

Yea I really don't understand people who say objectively attractive people are ugly.

It's mainly people who are ugly themselves and are jealous

I understand only being attracted to women that are the traditional body type for your culture. What I don't understand is being pissed or disgusted that other people don't share your views.

If someone sends me to a site full of women smoking and it's not my thing (which it isn't), I'd just say, "Nah, not my thing." I wouldn't put down their wanting to smoke, or have tattoos or whatever they like to show off.

I wouldn't condemn the site for promoting women that I don't find attractive.

I'm led to believe that 90% of the guys in here look like Don Draper. Based on the fat Kate Upton comments.

I'm not condemning BuzzFeed. I'm condemning the movement that says women who are simply not attractive are suddenly beacons of beauty. Their appearance has never been attractive. It's not the look that the normal man is into.

The chicks would look and feel better if they lost weight. No amount of clothing is going to fool us into thinking they are supermodels.
If you want to go to the beach, put on a damn swimsuit and go. A giant one-piece covered by a shirt with a sarong wrapped around your waist won't help. Putting down the fork and hitting the gym will.

They're not replacing anyone on the cover of the SI Swimsuit Issue. They're not forcing anyone to look. Why would you even care if someone finds them attractive or if they want to take a pic in a swimsuit?

Kind of, but kind of not.

This is an objectively beautiful picture. You would at least think, "Oh, that's pretty", if you saw it.



This is not. If you thought,"Oh, that's pretty", when you saw this, people would think you were pretty abnormal or had some kind of fetish or something.

Not really. There are objective standards for beauty that are accepted by most. Any outliers are people with more selective tastes or weird fetishes.

You don't see that fat chick from Mike and molly winning any "most beautiful person" awards that don't come from bigandbeautiful.com
