i kinda feel like media outright lies about what is attractive, both in that “sexually attractive” and “aesthetically pleasing/handsome” are conflated, but also i just don’t get the vibe that most people actually find “conventionally attractive” people that appealing when push comes to shove. Maybe it’s just me, but a lot of the people i see day to day IRL are so appealing that i almost want to laugh when i see hollywood actresses being called attractive. I’ve seen people in the grocery store who made me want to whimper like a dog that knows it can’t eat a thanksgiving turkey, i struggle to find that shit online when actively searching for it!

    Yeah, I agree. I think culture can sometimes get skewed by the specific tastes of more powerful people but it doesn’t actually set what people truly find attractive. That combined with how much a lot of people seem to like jumping on bandwagons and base their outward tastes on popularity as much as (or more than) their actual tastes.
