Female Quiz: Who is Sub, Average, and Attractive
I noticed something interesting about how men and women reacted differently to my videos on attractiveness. Even though I clearly said the women in the videos were created by AI, many female viewers were upset. They said things like:
"How dare you judge these women!" (As if we aren't judged every day by both men and women.)
"You can't decide who's beautiful and who's not!" (Come on, as if I don't have eyes.)
"Why are we even doing this?" (Nobody's forcing you to watch.)
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!" (Is it, though? Is it really?)
This was very different from how men reacted to the video about male attractiveness. Men seemed more relaxed about it and didn't take it as seriously.
These different reactions makes me wonder about a few things:
Do society's expectations affect how women and men feel about attractiveness?
Do women and men have different views about their own looks?
Why do women and men react so differently when we talk about physical attractiveness?
It's clear that this topic brings up strong feelings, especially for women. This shows us how complex and sensitive the subject of attractiveness can be.
It's understandable that women are more sensitive to discussions about attractiveness. Historically, a woman's value was often tied to her appearance. Beauty was a key asset that helped women stand out and compete with one another, often to attract "high-value" men.
Is this fair?
Men face their own set of challenges, though. For them, the ability to provide has traditionally been paramount. Men often compete based on their resources and accomplishments, which is why their own physical appearance isn't always their top priority.
Point is, nothing is fair.
Life isn't always fair, and everyone has their own challenges. How we look is important, but it's not everything. Here's what you need to know:
Attractiveness does matter. It can help us in social situations and at work.
But it's just one part of who we are. Our personality, skills, and character are just as important.
Focusing too much on looks can give us the wrong idea about life and relationships.
It's best to find a balance. Recognize that looks play a role, but don't let them overshadow everything else.
Remember, there's more to a person than just how they look. By keeping this in mind, we can avoid putting too much value on appearance alone.
Not everyone is conventionally beautiful, and that's perfectly fine.
Being average is ABSOLUTELY okay.
Enhacing our appearance to attract a potential partner is okay.
Likewise, improving our appearance to boost our self-confidence is ALSO okay.
Recognizing that beauty standards exist doesn't diminish your worth as a person, but it can motivate you to enhance various aspects of yourself, both internally and externally. The question then becomes: How can embracing a more nuanced view of attractiveness actually empower you to move forward and unlock new possibilities in your life?
Don't limit yourself by becoming your own gatekeeper to potential opportunities.
