So it’s the whole - do you compare yourself to average people or the best - question. I think most here pick the latter.

No, it’s the “do I compare her to average people or the best” question.
There is a difference between what I expect when browsing porn on the internet, and what I expect when looking to see a flesh-and-blood woman naked.
Porn makes you picky about who you see naked on a screen. And this ties into my theory about one reason online dating is flawed… we are already trained to weed out the images of people we would find reasonably attractive were they truly present.

Yeah, so then I’m the her, and I don’t compare myself to average, why would you compare me to average?
I understand what you’re saying, but it still feels like there are two diffent scales - average girl scale and hot girl scale.
This I totally agree with.

Why would you assume that I would adopt your criteria when determining whether or not I want to have sex with you, or evaluating your attractiveness?
It is all the same scale, but context determines the lower threshold (at least for me). If I am looking at porn, I really don’t want to see a woman that is less than an “8”. Not that I assign numbers to them, but I just move on. I feel as though I can do better.

Indeed Sir
Well, we use the similar criteria when evaluating the attractiveness of porn stars, so why wouldn’t we when evaluating anyone else?
The same scale with different thresholds is not all that different from two different scales. So, when evaluating women in real life you don’t move on from an 8, because you don’t feel as though you can do better? Which I find easy to interpert as, you’re settling for me.
I don’t know that I’m ever going to understand how guys can pick apart celebrities but then be perfectly okay with normal girl flaws.

I don’t understand your argument, here. My appraisal of your looks has nothing to do with your appraisal of your looks.
In real life, it is not as simple as a number cut off. It is not purely visual in the most superficial sense.
When I look at a still image, or even video clips, I do not get as much of a sense of the natural sexiness of the woman. When I see a woman in real life, there are many more factors that go into her “rating” as such, because that information has become available to me via the context. Now, even if that appraisal remains visual - because sexiness may be evaluated visually (though I certainly don’t mind aural stimulation) - it is information that I am unlikely to see in pictures on the web.
Also, when I am looking at a picture, I have time to more carefully evaluate all the features that present themselves in the still frame. If I were to watch the same woman while she were moving, I would be less likely to notice those same defects.
And men are not, or at least I am not, as purely visual as is oft believed. There is something unmistakably kinesthetic, visceral, and animalistic about smelling a woman’s hair, feeling her warm body against my side, tasting her sweat and smelling her natural scent.
Watching a woman writhe and undulate beneath me, I have no time for academic assessments of her attributes; the silk of her skin sliding against mine, the rubbery resistance of her her nipples as I lick and bite them - do not admit of studying cellulite or comparing her against some silly idealized figure.

Yeah, I kinda was doing some arm waving there. You’re right.
Ah, but what about the T-Vixen pic thread, all you’re given is the visual. Are you just as harsh with that pure visual?

First of all Neph, this was just hot to read. You need more posts like this.
You also managed to make this a little clearer. I guess, it’s why it’s easier to get naked in front of a guy than to send naked pics.

I thought about bringing this up, because I was worried that wading into the “images” territory would dissuade some lovely lady like yourself from posting pictures in that thread.
The short explanation is that because you are posting, we get to see some of your personality, and associate that with the images, which makes them more real and hotter. So we’re not just given the visual.
Not to mention the fact that because you participate in the forums, there is an illusion of proximity that makes the suggestiveness all that more alluring…
Thanks and thanks.
