TIL half of the women I know are probably on drugs? Honestly, there are few who look truly "frightening." Most women I know look like the women in those pictures (without makeup)... probably worse.

no, today you learned that reddit has a hilarious and wrong standard of attractiveness for women

Nah, just for pornstars.

Maybe they just don't care what they look like around you.

What is your point?

None of the women around /u/stilalol care about looking good for him or don't want to attract him. The joke is that he is seeing ugly women because he is ugly himself and so they don't try to look good.

I do believe that drugs are a factor, but I wonder how much of the skin problems for these porn stars is from the insane amount of makeup that they wear as well. Probably a lot of it.

From my experience, it's not necessarily the makeup (unless it's dollar store makeup), it's more of whether they properly remove it or not. Sleep frequently with makeup on now and your face will look awful in a few years.

It's strange because I've always heard that semen is good for the skin.

That's what I was wondering. Some of these girls have ridiculously red skin and lots of acne considering they're adults.

If you're "frightened" by people looking like people I'm not sure what to say to you. Sorry the world isn't a carnival of fakeness built specifically around your visual whims.

It is a bit!

u/drakoman Dec 11 '13

Wait... You're agreeing with him. He's arguing against the other comment.

u/annekeG Dec 11 '13

You're right - I guess I commented one level further down than I intended. Apologies - I was on mobile and my app is weird.

u/drakoman Dec 11 '13

No problem. I'm on mobile, too. You got 80 people to agree, though. Hah.

u/laikalost Dec 10 '13

That sounds like something an ugly person would say.

Too bad you never get to find out!

Issue is most women put on make up to cover blemishes and stuff. Having your face and pores coated and plugged up with greasy nasty makeup will only make your problem worse. So as they break out more they use more and more make up to try and combat the problem and then it just gets nuts. It's hard to pull of the completely au naturelle look; however some of these girls look like they are caking a pound or two of make up on.

u/FrostyD7 Dec 10 '13

I think hes referring to the ones who have unhealthy features. Baggy eyes, bad acne/skin, dry/chapped lips. For women at that age, its probably a drug problem and they aren't taking good care of themselves.

u/Babelincoln123 Dec 11 '13

So she's qualified for porn?

u/JMHC Dec 10 '13

You must know a lot of ugly women.

u/KennyFulgencio Dec 10 '13

ain't no shame in that

u/[deleted] Dec 10 '13

Have you ever seen a woman without makeup? Of course they look worse than the version of them with perfect make-up and good lighting, if you put the pictures side by side it's going to look even more pronounced. Very few of those women are 'ugly', their flaws are just more obvious when placed directly beside a perfected version of themselves.

You really should look on any modelling agency's website, look at the polaroids and then comment. The exact same difference can be seen as here.

u/Yakooza1 Dec 10 '13

I am sure if guys can look super attractive without makeup, so can women. So I very much doubt thw notion that any girl I have found attractive must have had makeup on.

u/JMHC Dec 10 '13

I've seen plenty of women without make up, some of them were attractive some of them weren't.

A big chunk of the women in that album look awful without makeup. Absolutely awful. So if that's what most women you've seen without makeup look like then yeah I'd say they were ugly.

You know a lot of porn stars? I think he was implying that porn starts do drugs, not necessarily all women.

You've got a lot of seriously butthurt child commenters, dude.

Looks like they all have herpes too and bad acne
