Eh, I wouldn't turn myself down, but I'd certainly not go out of my way to hit on me. I'm not really my type.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I don't like my body type at all. I thought I was unattractive to everyone until my girlfriend proved me wrong

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

There's always someone for everyone.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 hours ago

It took me almost 30 years to learn that lesson but yeah.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 16 hours ago

On Fire!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[–] [email protected] 1 points 18 hours ago

yeah I would find someone like me decently attractive. but I still find myself repulsive when I look in the mirror lmao.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

That definitely is the case with me (say in around 70% of cases?).

I think in my mind, people that are my type = attractive. I want to be attractive. Therefore, my ideal look = the body type I am attracted to. Thankfully, I have almost achieved my ideal "look" or whatever.

So yeah, I do look like people I have sex with usually.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

That is exactly my line of thinking.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

politics, values, and kinks are way more important than appearance

[–] [email protected] 5 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, but i asked especially if you or anyone looked like someone they would like to have sex with.

So, do yo?

(This is just a chill and funny question, pal. Just play along if you will)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Appearance is never a sufficient factor on its own, but in my own case appearance, I wouldn't consider it a disqualifying factor. Though me a few years ago wouldn't have to try as hard, for sure...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Good to know, thanks for play along! And you're right, appearance is not everything. If someone is veey attractive and even my type, but is the biggest piece of shit ever, I'm just not interested at all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Honestly, decent people are so rare, one cannot afford to be fussy about appearance. Fortunately, ethical compatibility is VERY attractive.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Hell yeah! Nothing's more sexy than stand for humans rights!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago

Needlessly speciesist but it's a good start

[–] [email protected] 4 points 21 hours ago

Nope, with same gender folk I find they usually have something striking or unusual in their appearance and I'm far too normal middle of the road looking to fit that.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My husband and I have been mistaken for brothers before so... Yeah

[–] [email protected] 1 points 16 hours ago
[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm an androgynous twink who is into bears. There is no overlap

[–] [email protected] 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I'm a bear into androgynous twinks. There is also no overlap

[–] [email protected] 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Thinking about it more, there is one area of overlap: the genitals 😆

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago

I'm not turned on by my bits, but I definitely like my butt (and other peoples butts)

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

No

I have a type. I'm not that type.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)
[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago
[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

No, I like both men and women with dark hair/eyes/complexion and I look the complete opposite. I definitely have a type. Oddly, my brother, though straight, has the same preferences in women and he and I look alike.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

I would totally fuck me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Yeah. I'm definitely my type

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think I kinda did ten or fifteen years ago, but I'm a bear/dad now and I'm much more into rugged women than rugged men. My taste in men runs twink-ish, usually.

My wife has aged similarly though, which very much works for me.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

That's fair, My taste in men also leans more towards twinks, and currently I look kind of twink-y. But maybe if I keep gaining weight and muscle, while I don't think I'll end up looking "bad", maybe I'll stop being my type.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Absolutely. I don't have a type, but definitely find myself attractive.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

In that case... go fuck yourself!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

Respectfully

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

HELL YEAH!!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

I'd do me any day of the week.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not gay but I have sex with my arm regularly

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

Yeah but I'm thinking about someone else's arm.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm super cute, generally a mess, and emotionally unavailable.

I'm definitely my type.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Pretty sure I dated you for a couple weeks last month.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

I miss you <3

(Seriously you're better off without them!)

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

That's the attitude!

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm glad that as a straight, this doesn't apply to me, cause I have a twin brother and would've made for an awkward question.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Somehow i wonder what the odds are of a twin being straight while the other is gay. Or if the odds are higher for both twins to be gay?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I have a client who's SO's twin brother is not gay. I don't know what the odds are, of course, but this is proof that it can occur! I suppose it goes without saying they cannot be identical.
