    I love how conservatives are obsessed with reproduction, but not with being desirable. What do they think the Hugo Boss drip was for, anyway?

      You hit a key word here too. Desirable.

      I don’t consider myself to be very good looking. My teeth are a bit crooked. I’m a bit pudgy ever since I left the military and to be honest, I am a terrible dresser. Comfort over everything else is my motto. I’m not attractive.

      I’ve never had issues meeting or dating girls. I try to be myself, honest and try to be a good partner. I haven’t always been the best at any of those things but I think most women look past my flaws and see that I’m a decent person with a good heart just looking for someone to spend our limited time with here in earth. I think that makes me desirable to a lot of women.

      At least in my experience it has. I’m married now to a woman who wanted just that so it worked out for me.

      She also likes my chubby belly.

        Haha glad things worked out. Just in case it is any help dressing well isn’t impossible, I used to think it pretty much was.

        Rotate your clothing, donate what is old, pack up what isnt weather appropriate for your season instead of leaving it on the hanger, if it needs to be ironed and it isnt a suit dont buy it, try to invest in a good outfit not a single great piece. Especially the last part. You want people to look at you and think you look good not that your shirt looks good.

      Being attractive isn’t easy as demanding lower standards. Especially if you have some problem that you really have no control over like a severe birth defect.

        I can’t personally relate to that. I spent half my twenties celibate on purpose because I decided to raise my standards. The secret ingredient was that it wasn’t about looks, but personality. I’m now very happily paired up, and with some healthy lifestyle changes we’re both genuinely kinda hot.

        I don’t think the “incel class” understands this. Beauty comes from within.
