While my friend is a gorgeous blonde with an impeccable sense of style and a dry sense of humor, her chosen beau was well past chubby (ok, he was so far into obese he couldn't even see the signpost to Chubby Town. If Obese-City was on 4square, he'd be the freaking MAYOR) and I'm pretty sure his hairline hasn't seen any actual hair since the late 90s. He wasn't funny, interesting or particularly bright, and his resulting inferiority complex made him downright rude to her friends, despite our best efforts.
This wouldn't be a big deal if it was an isolated incident, but everywhere I turn, all over this fabulous city and indeed all over the globe, women are indulging in a phemonenon I'm dubbing "Down-Dating." Really gorgeous girls are shacking up with duds and drop-kicks who, in a normal world, shouldn't even get a first date. I'm not talking about the vacuous or the ditzy either; bright, cool, talented, beautiful women are hooking up with men who have nothing to show for themselves except their ability to snag afore-mentioned hottie.
Don't believe me? Explain this:
The gorgeous Kate Moss with the gungy Pete Doherty
Hot Sienna Miller, not-so-hot Rhys Ifans
And the stunning Jen Aniston with scrag John Mayer
Interestingly, Down-Dating is only limited to women--hot guys are certainly not going for their visually disturbing counterparts. So why is this happening? Is it just the Man Drought driving us to desperation, or something more sinister?
It's common knowledge that ugly guys have to work harder. Just like small men are better in bed (they know they have something to make up for), ugly men need to be nice guys and good human beings in order to get the girl. And so, hot women date them thinking they've made a fair trade-off, which is "Ugly guy, but he'll be great to me."
Well girls, I'm smashing the urban myth that gross guys are nice people. You know what the above three couples have in common? They're no longer together. In every case, love-rat guy cheated on super-hot female.
The thing is, these guys are perfectly normal until they hook up with their significantly-hotter other. And it's a Law of Dating Nature that other women are interested in any guy that can get a hot girl, because they're all wondering what secret weapon he has. And so, like moths to a flame, we're drawn in, trying to discover whether it's his scintillating wit, his vast wealth or just his willy that got him the girl.
It's easy to confuse all this female attention with sexual interest, but the truth is, as soon as these guys dump their hot girlfriends, they lose the only thing that made other women interested to begin with. And yes, it's true that while some love-rats go on to make a career out of Dating-Up, it never ends well for the girl.
So ladies, if you're going to date a guy for his personality, make it a hot guy. Because the only thing that you get by "Down-Dating" is an ugly Facebook album, and in Kate Moss' case, a crack addiction, which I imagine she needed to bring herself to have sex with Pete Doherty.
Love it love it love it. Great Blog UD! I'm surprised at the bagging of John Mayer, women all over the planet love that guy??

This article does not contain an ounce of reality. Most of these things are subjective to how individuals feel about other people.
ReplyDelete'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder' While we might think that John Mayer is average in comparison to Jennifer. There is clearly something in John that Jennifer finds attractive and this ultimately makes John Mayer an attractive person.
The deluded writer, devoid of any common sense and understanding of life, is attempting to portray that if one dates a less attractive partner; in the long run they will separate. Yes all three of the above might have separated, but are we really that naive to use just 3 examples to generalize this across the entire human race.
The indirect message you are sending out to both girls and boys are:
1) If you are not good looking, you will never get a good looking partner. Causing them to feel more insecure, as if the youth of today don't feel enough of that already.
2) If you are good looking, just go for the good looking people. Contributing to the shallow personality they have, or might have after it.
I can go on for an entire day and list how articles like these, could hold back a relationship that has so much potential. Have good self-esteem, think your good enough, and go for any guy and girl that you think you should be with. Don’t let society hold you back or retarded opinions of writers like the one who wrote this. So what if he/she is not that good looking, the fact they make you feel happy and feel good about yourself should be sufficient reason for you to be with them.
Lastly, if your wondering ‘well clearly these relationships don’t work in the long run then why shall I waste my time’. In that case, look at Andrew Upton who married Cate Blanchett. The man is living proof that you can have a successful relationship regardless of looks.
"It's easy to confuse all this female attention with sexual interest, but the truth is, as soon as these guys dump their hot girlfriends, they lose the only thing that made other women interested to begin with"
ReplyDeletePlease explain how did they get the extremely hot women in the first place to begin with? Clearly this undermines your argument.
"Ugly guy, but he'll be great to me." Women like nice guys? This is breaking news.
