Make Sure You Fit The Standards That You Have On Men/Women

I really tried to find something worth responding to but all you can offer is overstated opinion. If you want a response:

  1. OP explicitly focused on non-physical attraction.

  2. Mother-comment made a frankly ridiculous claim that weight and attractiveness necessarily reflect one another.

  3. Attractiveness can occur in any order, with any preference. Indeed, one could become attracted before meeting someone physically or visually. In fact, it is common. So NO, you are just wrong about physicality as a prerequisite.

  4. Notice how you strayed away from the initial topic of weight. I explicitly stated an exception for outliers (e.g. obesity). My original rebuttal to the mother-comment was extremely conservative; that for average weights, which encompasses most people, the overall attractiveness of a person is not strongly affected by weight.

  5. I get that you tried to cosplay me by throwing insults. Here is the difference; I extrapolated from the weight-shaming, physicality-obsessing, negativity that you spew - that you're an asshole who only cares about (can you guess?) physical beauty standards. How did I come to such a conclusion? I read the words you said, and you basically wrote a confession to it.

In contrast, as I specifically pointed out (again), your argument is weakened by your assumption that I am myself unattractive by your standards. It is one of many overstatements which continually drag your claims away from credibility. I am naive for thinking weight doesn't play a 100% role in attractiveness (which is literally the logical conclusion from the mother-comment)? Well shucks, because you said the same thing yourself. As a matter of fact, if you weren't so desperate to prove that weight/ physicality can make up for your shitty disposition, you would realize that we are saying similar things (conveniently for me, you keep editing your position to be more reasonable / vague, while doubling down on personal insults).
