I was wondering today what it would be like if everyone were hot.
Now, I don't mean that people would look any different than they do now, just that you'd be physically attracted to everyone, regardless of what they look like.
And then I thought, that would mean that every physical attribute would be attractive. Even, say, fatness. But you know what? I don't even want to be attracted to fat people. A three-hundred pound woman is so unattractive to me, that I wouldn't want to find her attractive even if I found her attractive.
But then I thought, maybe the unattractive qualities are necessary in order to have the attractive ones. Not like some kind of karmic Star Wars trilogy good and evil bullshit, but that the attractive qualities wouldn't be attractive without the ability to contrast them against something.
Really what this line of thinking implies, though, is the existence of a standard. For example, physical fitness might be one such standard, and the degree to which someone meets that standard is the degree to which your attraction to them is affected.
It's clear that there are multiple standards, and each has its own personal value to each individual. Some guys, for example, would fuck a cow if it had blond hair and breasts. And some women would say things like "size doesn't matter" and actually mean it, if the guy's face looked like Brad Pitt's.
The best example, of course, of weighing standards of physical attractiveness, must be the breast size/facial tolerance ratio. For a lot of guys, a rise in breast size allows for a drop in facial quality. Now, this is not to say that there isn't a point at which X (breast size) doesn't plateau at a certain level Y (facial quality, or the lack thereof). And vice versa. You can only take breasts so big and a face so ugly that at some point, that nauseating half-ape with 86ZZZs is not really going to turn you on.
You might have to take a breath and say:
"Well, sure, a spoon-full of sugar does help the medicine go down. But there's only so much goddamn sugar a man can eat, and Jesus Christ, this medicine tastes like fucking shit."
The key, therefore, is not to take ugliness and breast size with a grain of salt. Replacing sugar with salt is only a Band-Aid solution. The key is to take them with moderation.
And the same goes for other attributes of physical attractiveness. It's fine to let the nose length or the asymmetrical eye socket quotients rise, as long as you keep a watchful eye on those great ass and legs to die for quotients as well.
