AHA! I was able to get to this post before the usual suspects got here and started ripping you apart. OK. Here it is. You are white, and you appear to be in halfway decent shape. You do not appear to be short, and your face is average to good looking. In other words, your facial features are pretty standard, not awkward, even though they might not stand out... THAT ALONE puts you around a 6 or 7 in the grand scheme of men. Which although, will not get you automatic action, will enable you ... if you work on your game, to do well with women. I would work on the hair and start working out. But what you have to work with in terms of your baseline is pretty good. Link to post Share on other sites
CptObvious Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 nope, but lucky for you, you can either make a lot of money or put yourself on a serious bodybuilding program. It ain't just about having muscles either, because once you start cutting down your body fat your face is going to look more and more toned. I ain't sayin your face is going to turn into a 9 after a few years but I can guarantee you'll be a lot happier than you are now. Whatever you do don't just eat grass for the rest of your life and turn into kenny florian, and don't just curl everyday and eat chicken nuggets. Put in a real effort alright kiddo? I can't guarantee ****; this is all on you. Link to post Share on other sites

Mme. Chaucer Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 But, dude … the photos in Mom's bathroom with the floral wallpaper are not really what you need to be broadcasting for critique, no matter how hot or not you are. And truly, a person who is dealing with insecurity does NOT need to put their pictures up here for the slashers ... 4 Link to post Share on other sites

You have a good build too, so you can put on some decent muscle. If there was a female equivalent of you (your sis?), she'd have tons of male attention by her mid 20s. You'll be able to get some pretty hot girls if you do things the right way. I wish I had as much to work with as you do. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
CptObvious Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I think you're a cutie. I'd take that as an insult if you said that to me. @jobaba A 5 is average, a 6 is above average, a 7 is good. I'm not sure how the scale got distorted so badly over the years but lets put an effort into fixing it. I think we can all agree on OP being a 4-5, however I also think he could step up, be a man, get his life sorted out, and get promoted to a 7. Don't take anything that's about to happen in this thread as an insult OP. Link to post Share on other sites

That puts him above Asian guys, Indian guys, black guys, short guys, and fat guys. And his face is average at worst. I know people have individual tastes, but in the consensus scheme of things, he's at least a 6. I'm a realist... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Hootiehoo Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Let me break it down for you so that you can understand the way us ladies think ... and this is coming from a girl that has A TON of options. These are the types of guys I've dated: Edgy, tatted, and pierced. Muscle-head gym rat. Latin rico suave. Flabby average funny white guy. Cute, young & broke boy. EVERY single one of them is different from the next, but one thing they ALL have in common, is that they are secure with themselves, they are who they are and they OWN it! That's what women find attractive. Guys are lucky in the sense that they can fake it till they make it. You just have to be confident! And as far as you are concerned, like the other person said, you already have a good baseline ... so my only advice to you is to find yourself and find what makes you unique and put that on display and be proud of it. Don't be afraid or concerned with what anyone else thinks. It's the most liberating, sexy feeling in the world. And to simplify all that, yes you are a good-looking guy. I just get the sense that you need to find your edge. I mean, take Dane Cook for example. Strip him down of his funny and he's not all that great-looking... but dress him up, give him an edgy personality, and make him funny and he becomes SEXXXYYY.... Good luck buttercup!

CptObvious Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Oh, almost forgot to give you a few short term things to work on. Get a haircut, go outside and get a little sunlight, start looking for a cheap trainer to get you on the right nutritional and workout plan, and change your eye color. I've never bought those types of contact lenses but I can't imagine them being too expensive right? It's either gonna be blue or green imo, so if you can't decide just flip a coin.

crystal_lite Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 You're cute! I mean not like omg hot. Or my bf hot. But cute. A 6, fixx that hair up, spike it up puff that chest up and suck in those cheeks. You'd be very cute. Hahah nah, just showcase good parts of you. I mean you shouldn't be SO insecure that you'd put your pic up though, get out of that mentality and puff your chest out. Seriously. Link to post Share on other sites
jobaba Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Told ya it would be harsh OP. LS is not a good place to get an realistic view of where you stand. Put it this way. I've seen the pics of many of the female members here, and I wouldn't say any of them are any better looking than you, with the exception of maybe two or three posters.

It is spelled real-ass:rolleyes: At the op -- random people telling you anything about your looks isn't going to make you feel better for any longer than it will take you to read the post. So yeah find ways to improve yourself that will make you love yourself more; that will help you be less insecure. Plus I find you're hot but what does it matter I could be 47 yr old fat guy living in his dad's basement. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
jobaba Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 It is spelled real-ass:rolleyes: Haha. That's good. I have to steal that one for my own. People could sit here and pretend that stuff like race, height, and obesity don't matter, but it wouldn't be very realistic. Though I don't discriminate on that stuff myself, I'm well aware that most do. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
KungFuJoe Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 That puts him above Asian guys, Indian guys, black guys ... Are you for real? GTFOH with that ****. Don't project your own insecurities as a "race thing". Just because YOU are Asian, Indian or black (don't know which you are) and are unattractive, doesn't mean they all are. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

That is like me coming here and saying "I was trying to get this guy but he has all these white, asians, etc to choose from, why will he choose lil ol' black me?"

Just because YOU are Asian, Indian or black (don't know which you are) and are unattractive, doesn't mean they all are. It doesn't matter how unattractive I am. I'm not the barometer. I never use myself as the barometer of how my race fares. That is like me coming here and saying "I was trying to get this guy but he has all these white, asians, etc to choose from, why will he choose lil ol' black me?" But I am AWESOME so I won't bitch over something or believe something that is a nonfactor. Of course most men are going to pick Halle Berry over Janet Reno, but in an anthropology sense, if you line up an average black woman versus an average white woman, most men will pick the average white woman. It's just kind of the way things are. This is without even getting into the men who aren't attracted to black women, no matter how attractive. I don't pretend that things aren't. Instead, I do my best to make sure I don't contribute to discriminating against someone based on something they can't control. why do u think that is? Anywhere on the internet really. You'll have people who bash you behind a computer screen, when they don't have their own pics up to take it themselves. Link to post Share on other sites
