Are ppl intimidated by good looking people?

[Erzengel]

People have told me that I look unapproachable- not because of any attractiveness factor but apparently I look scary. Which is curious to me, as I think I'm pretty non-intimidating, but I suppose the tattoos could do it. Depends on the person, though, because I've had quite a few people approach me just because of my tattoos.

Some people probably equate tattoos with... gangs, and that's why they find people with tattoos intimidating or scary? Maybe they're afraid of Wolvie's claws.

I'm not scared of you. In fact, if we were to ever cross path, I'd pounce on you. Like Tigger.

You said 'arse' instead of 'ass'

Are you British?

You may have made a very intelligent comment there, but all I saw was Bella's arse

No, not British. My Mom was born and raised in Italy and she learned English there, British English. She speaks British English at home and therefore, I still have some of that British English influence on me. There goes my life story...

Ugh! All those good comments were a waste of time then!

A lot of people do- gangs or drugs. I like to watch people out of the corners of my eyes and people's reactions are often hilarious. More often, people visibly react to my husband's mohawk than to anything I've got going. He's not visibly tattoo'd and doesn't dress over the top, but that mohawk really seems to ruffle people.

And me on my back with you on top? I've played that scenario out a few times in my mind.

I want to ruffle your husband's mohawk. I think you two are such a freaky-looking couple. :heart:

OMG! Me too! I call dibs on being on top. I've always wanted to be a cowgirl. *puts on cowboy hat*

She might get up because it just happens to be her stop, and this dork is paranoid and assumes it's because he isn't worthy to sit within the sphere of her glory.

One reason I immediately get up when someone sits down, is if they smell like a yeast-encrusted 1,000 year old egg dipped in ear wax and marinated in yesterday's sweat.

Another reason would be if the person near me is freely coughing into the air.

Both of those would be the fault of the pathetic guy.
I've never gotten up and moved because I wasn't sexually attracted to the person sitting next to me and I highly doubt anyone identifies the bus with sex to that degree except the paranoid dweeb who wrote the threadstarting comment.


It's when the stranger's airborne grossness threatens to actually invade your body...

 

[DBella]

^Public transport = Sex
It's the truth.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

^Public transport = Sex
It's the truth.

I've seen people having sex on the bus and I failed to see any eroticism.

There are too many stumbling, bloody drunk people, speed freaks, shouting gangstas, blasting iPODs, fetid homeless people, and ginormous (sorry Terry), obese women with proto-beards, talking to themselves....to get too aroused.

I always just close my eyes and meditate and dream of getting to my stop.
When I see hot chicks I feel sorry for them, and if there's a space, I'm glad to sit next to them because I smell like Armani cologne and it will distract them from the lice-ridden mutants smelling up the rest of the bus.

I meant other than if it was her stop you moron.

I've witnessed a guy sit next to a girl on the train, and she suddenly got up and moved to other seat. The whole train was looking back and forth at the two of them like, wft. The guy had a puzzled look on his face.

And all you guys coming on her saying ".....this wouldn't bother me" , "that wouldn't bother me", are full of crap. It's real easy to say that, when your comfortably typing behind your computer, in a stress free enviroment. I swear, everyone thinks they're sssoooooooooo hard and cool when typing on their keyboard, don't they?

 

[BlackLantern]

I think some people equate tattoos or certain types of tattoos with specific classes of people...We have this girl in my office who has ass antlers...she also happens to be the office ****...

Everybody knows the lower back tattoo means she's been spread open more times than an english muffin.

 

[Lighthouse]

pretty much...I was in the same boat with a female friend, but then after 10 plus years of friendship I decided to walk away because she was basically using me as free advice to patch up one crappy relationship after another.

Ugh, story of my life.

^.Nothing personal to you, but this leads me to another question:

Do attractive girls always pick un-attractive guys as their friends?.... Because they know that the guy has to know that he doesn't stand a chance in hell at being intimate with them; yet the girl still gets the benefit of having a male friend, that many girls like to have.....?

Thats kind of the way it is. I'm kind of the stereotypical ugly girlfriend, except I'm a guy, I'm not jealous of her, and I don't hate all her boyfriends. I'm actually really good friends with a few of the boyfriends.

I take the bus almost everyday. I'd much rather sit next to an attractive girl than some dude or an ugly chick. The possibility of the girl getting up when I sit down never enters my mind, because:
1) I'm not gross.
2) I'm not paranoid
3) I'm not a dork.
4) I'm not insecure
5) I've got things on my mind.

There's also a lot of prejudice and anti-hot chick bias going on here.
I have seen hideous, freaky old men lean over and start conversations with gorgeous girls, and thought, "AH, you freak! Leave the poor girl alone! You are not worthy!", and then she responds and they have a nice conversation and she's all sweet and I've even seen them become "bus-pals", regulars who talk every morning. And I realize, "Oh yeah, I'm an attractive guy, and I'm not going to be a jerk to some gross looking girl, and, *bOiNg* girls are the same way, dUURrRhHh! "

Really. Start to realize that women are people, regardless of their breast size or the shapeliness of their bone structure.



I'm saying, if someone is getting up and moving because you sat down...it's probably because you smell bad.
Try showering (with soap and shampoo), flossing, brushing your teeth, gargling with mouthwash, and wearing clean clothes, daily.

I don't go by that ruling myself, but I've heard them be called a 'tramp stamp' before.

the Tramp stamp is simply a tattoo on the lower back...ass antlers are an extension thereof

Would you like there to be? :heart:

Every English muffin I've ever had got spread open once.

 

[terry78]

Exactly.



What?

but it's usually for the first person that puts hands on them.....those English muffins have no standards

Nobody's debating a woman looks and worth here, why are you?

This is simply about some ppl reactions to both woman AND men that are ATTRACTIVE..

Not always the case. In the one instance i saw it, the chick had no time to analyze the guy breathe, body odor or whatnot, it was an instantaneous move. Some ppl are snobbish, or high and mighty, or think they're god's gift to the world.

I have a good story about getting hit on while riding the subway. I was coming home from work early, so the train was pretty quiet. It was just me and one other guy in our little section of seats. I didn't notice him particularily checking me out and I was listening to my Ipod and was being fairly oblivious to the world. All of a sudden he moves into the seat beside me and hands me a note that says

Would you like to have a conversation with me?

[ ] Yes
[ ] No

If Yes, how would you like to have this conversation

[ ] In person
[ ] MSN
[ ] Phone
[ ] Email

Thanks for your time

I was so shocked I pretty much just whipped the thing back at him and yelled no. But it sure was interesting.

I'm puzzled, because you said that you saw the comment on another site, but you're acting like my insults about the dork that wrote the comments are directed at you.
Maybe you said, "I've had the same experience as this guy! "
But if you did, I haven't seen it.
I only saw you say that you saw this on another site, and thought it was a valid question.
If you are irrationally scared of attractive girls, and crippled with insecurity, I'm sorry.

1) I don't buy it. If someone's smell makes me want to vomit, I can sense it from the second they sit down next to me....provided it's bad enough.

2) Describe the guy. Are you saying she moved because he looking like Rocky Dennis in "Mask", or she moved because he was less than "Cover of GQ, drop-dead hunky with a 6 pack and a chiseled face".

If the person had a nauseating birth defect, or was disfigured in some way that made them appear to be non-human, then it's more understandable than just, "a guy who wasn't as attractive as she was".
