Destroyer of beauty...

[Dodger712]

Well I agree that it is the belly but some of the other stuff on the list also is a factor. Like the "fat/muscle". BUT I have a belly, though not as bad as the pic above, but still. I am always shocked when I see myself in pictures at how huge I look. Makes me sad but no real motivation to do much about it. I am also going bald, am almost 50, have two children (no wife), and am painfully shy. All this melds together to make me, I guess, someone that NO ONE seems to want to even get to know. Too much emphasis on youth, pecs, and jaw lines like Brad Pitt in our community. So I guess I'll just be the strange old man down the street that waves at people and has half a million dogs or cats in my old age. LOL. And that's sort of okay.

Ugly teeth are a no no for me. I get it if they are crooked but there is no need for badly stained or missing teeth imo. I also hate really huge Gary Busey teeth but I guess that's harder to control. Still a deal breaker I have to say.

There's no "wrong" body part that can't be overcome by how you carry it. A weird-looking nose, a large belly, a misshapen ass, a tiny cock - all can still be majorly sexy if cast correctly.

The toughest to cover up? Liam's got it - the brain. It's much harder to compensate for being flaky, narrow-minded, shallow, insensitive or just plain dumb. "Not talking" helps a lot, but it rarely seems to stick.

I term it as a destroyer of handsomness.
A dude who looks too contrived (Hollywood handsome), and dudes who look too much like a woman, especially long nails, unless I'm looking for a fem to pump a load into.

I voted Hair. Best looking guy with a pony tail. Beauty destroyed.

I protruding abdomen is a total turn off for me.

Definitely a brain. You could be, visually, a total 10 and I'll still run away from you if you're a moron.

The mind. There is where the judgement on the beauty is made.

I didn't say (or mean to imply) that having a body-part deal-breaker was wrong. I just meant most physical "flaws" (as seen by the observer) can often be compensated for in a casual way. To pick one, choosing flattering clothes can minimize the appearance of a gut. That doesn't mean if you're turned off by guys with guts that you'll suddenly find this guy hot, but it'll likely help him get more attention.

But it seems guys without brains have a much harder time compensating, even in a very casual way. I've even seen porn shots of really hot guys where they ma age to look utterly beainless - at which point I lose interest completely.

I'm over 40, got quite a few extra pounds on me, and am hairy enough to get into a furry convention without a costume. If your post is accurate, I'm doomed to a lifetime of ignoring from "the gay community".

I posted a cheesecake-y picture of me here on JUB recently. And I'm STILL getting comments and messages about it. All positive. Compliments, playful flirting, lewd come-ons, and requests for more.

I say this not to brag but to point out tge obvious. Yes, young trim hsirless guys get the lion's share of attention. But there are plenty of gay guys iut there who love ordinary guys. Like me. And, I'm assuming, you.

I'm having a Frank Zappa flashback: "What is the ugliest part of your body?"
Your mind.

Bad personality is the destroyer of beauty.

That's weird, it's a lot easier and more common to fix crooked teeth permanently than it is to whiten teeth permanently.

But yeah, I'm gonna go with mouth/mouth area. Eyes don't matter that much, nor nose, all the body parts sort of go together (generally if one is good, they're all good enough and vice versa), but a bad mouth is a biiig turn off. Lips that are too big, big creases along the sides of mouth, bad breath, and bad teeth are all things I don't really prefer.

Also, I have to mention, someone's "brain" doesn't really do anything for me, and don't take that as shallow. Someone being intelligent or not doesn't really make them any less attractive (unless they're borderline mentally impaired, in which case it might be a little much), but personality does have a big impact... I tend to find douches more attractive. Ugh.

Personality can definitely do it. Brain. I can't handle a big belly. Or any random body part that isn't proportionate to the rest of the body.

i have to agree with liam on this one as well.
