There’s no accounting for taste, but I do find the appearance in the right side picture to be rather off-putting.
That said, it’s not a judgemental call and I don’t really give a shit what people do with their own bodies. She isn’t doing it for travelwithmrmichael, or me, or whoever else might be commenting on it.
My only issue with that much ink at an early age is how you change as a person during the years from 18-28. How I was at 20 was pretty different from me at 28 and very different from me 38.
My take pretty much anything is if I don’t have to do anything do whatever the fuck you want as long as there is content and not harmful to other people.
Also regardless of one’s thoughts on the look, I find it hard to believe 18 years of loving parents had no influence on the outcome. She’s not a totally new brain/person after two years.
Edit: And also how does this guy explain all the samples of women that didn’t get tattoos after going to college? Why am I even engaging with this content like he’s made some innocent statistics error.
Tattoos are so incredibly common now (and have been since the '90s) that it’s hard to imagine even the parents of a 20-year-old not having some themselves.
I bet what suddenly made her so unappealing to this guy was turning 18.
Seriously, she looks like she’s about 16 in the first photo.
Via my daughters I’ve met some 12/13 year olds that looking like that image on the right.
I can 100% believe it, I’ve seen people who look like that who were that young as well. Pretty much all across that age range, around the time of puberty. But she definitely doesn’t look older than 18, and I guess being that age or older would make her look unappealing to him.
Because he hates hags /s
They hate consenting adults.
Weird women with tats are very appealing to me. I married one.
I personally don’t see the appeal, though to each their own.
Plus her piercings are amazing
As a man who currently plans to marry a woman that chooses to dress very modestly and doesn’t like tattoos, that woman looks great and beauty comes in many forms. Don’t be a fool and enjoy all beauty. The tree’s, the human’s, the music’s. Life is better if you allow yourself to enjoy “things” for their kind of beauty and not complain about the lack of some other kind.
For me it’s less the beauty I’m attracted to and more the weirdness
Maybe there is a kind of beauty in the weirdness that you like.
I wasn’t talking about beauty as only visual beauty, but also the beauty of a kind soul. The beauty of the little flaws that make us.
The confidence. I love people who are weird because one. they have confidence to be whatever they want to be. Two. Have interests that either align with mine, or have a passion that makes me interested in them as well.
Passion and confidence, regardless of what it’s for is extremely attractive.
Weird is Hot.
Honestly, I don’t care either way.
Except like. If they have Nazis tats, that’s a hard nope, but otherwise… eh.
I was playing disc golf by myself once and fell in with a group of guys with shaved heads who were playing the same course. They seemed nice and it took me a couple of holes to realize that they all had swastika tattoos on the sides of their heads. Fortunately I had rigged up my phone to make the incoming call sound when I double-tapped a side button and I was able to nope the fuck out of there.
pics or it didn’t happen
(jk… kinda)
Saying “After 2 years with college professors” seems creepy to me, like he thinks college professors are supposed to take over the parents’ role.
And wild that he thinks that the professors are giving out fashion advice rather than calculus and shit.
And it wasn’t professors who taught her to respect and value people who weren’t like her, it was just meeting them.
My physics professor was the most physics professor looking physics professor the world has ever produced. He was definitely not giving out fashion tips.
Unless of course you are a fan of ugly brown woollen affairs and tweed jackets with patches on the elbows.
My Physics professors literally wore pocket protectors, with pens in them. They were also both ultra-marathoners which is surprisingly common among that species.
My physics professor was Italian and a very snappy dresser. Although, he also wore shorts and soccer jerseys some days.
Very funny guy and could do trig out to several decimal places in his head. He was one of those rare professors that was doing research but still a great teacher. He was responsible for making math ‘click’ for me and helped me realize the joy of math.
could do trig out to several decimal places in his head
He’s got to have memorised that before class, or has memorised a bunch of common angles. The formula I remember using for them is a mess and doesn’t converge quickly.
My physics prof wore white socks with soccer ball-patterned slide on sandals. Normal business casual other than that, unless you count hair that hadn’t been bruised in a decade. Year round even in snow. And rode his bike to campus like that daily. Very fun dude.
That’s a bingo!
They think education is flawed. It’s part of the GOP indoctrination. What you’re saying is morbidly comical, but the real reason is how the Right regard education.
It’s crazy. They literally treat a lack of knowledge like a badge of honor. They genuinely believe they deserve a gold star for proactively avoiding knowing shit. It’s real. It’s wild.
Evangelist Christians genuinely believe that “earthly knowledge” is pointless once you are saved and are at the gates of heaven, so yes.
Its more like:
After 2 years of no longer being completely within the social circle of and under the financial and physical control of Christian Nationalists / Super Fundies.
This person you see but have minimal interaction with a few times a week for 13 weeks really screams parental figure.
Not far off for a lot of families unfortunately
That’s probably the level of interaction OOP wants to have with his kids.
What was it? Every accusation is a confession?
Probably still a more positive influence that these scums have on their kids.
Yeah, not everything is meant to be evaluated through personal attraction. People grow for themselves, not an audience.
Maybe she’d be more appealing to that dipshit chud if she got the conservative woman ghoul creature plastic surgery package.
I can’t even scroll through the post without screaming.

I wish I could get people to care about anything that really matters (wages, health care, peace, etc) as they do about other people’s appearances.
Imagine if Americans spent as much effort wanting a better life for everyone as they do keeping that one transgeder person from playing in sports… Y’all would be a utopia.
Exactly, or just not spending their whole day whining on other people’s tweets about their personal style.
Bleak.
Its almost as if atomizing the working class with a culture war was per design
Or genitalia.
Ain’t no hate like Christian “love”
Look at the eyes, the one at the right looks more confident. Good for them.
yes. the most sexually unnattractive demographic of all. checks notes porn stars
Meanwhile at Mar-a-lago
Oh god mark this as NSFL please
I’m conflicted, the brilliance and effort required for this answer is on par with how much I hate it.
Felt the same while creating it.
Muppet looks like a damn muppet.
Bro… I just opened Lemmy. At least let me wake up first…
You are awake now though. This Zombie has jump scare potential
If you’re not wide the fuck awake after seeing that, I’m not sure there’s any hope left for you
Obligatory Kirsten Dunst reference
BELL. Kirsten Bell. After a moment of confusion (“I could have sworn the comment said Dunst…”), I was so happy it was Bell. I don’t know how I never saw this a decade and a half ago, but GOD that was funny. Low key one of my favorite actors in Hollywood.
Recently did a Good Place re-watch, I think I’ll be happy to re-watch that show every couple years for the rest of my life. Perfect cast, well thought out from the onset with no “warmup” period like some TV comedies struggling to get their footing. Hysterical, heartfelt, and somehow also a tear jerker at times.
Omg. Ofcourse! Total brainfart from me. Thanks for the heads up.
I also enjoy her acting, and her humor. Her Halloween picture a few years back dressed as Elsa (by her daughter) was gold.
Funnily enough I like tattoos but not piercings. Specifically septum piercings. As a result I’m lumped in with these ultra conservative weirdos and regularly get called a pedophile for not liking them.
Nuance is dead in the modern age.
As if the guys who make these kind of comments wouldn’t instantly fall head over heels for literally any woman who looks in their general direction without complete disgust.
She’s gorgeous.
Is that many tattoos to my taste? Not totally. But its not her job to be to my taste, or his taste, or anyone’s taste. That doesn’t make her not gorgeous.
I hate conservative men. Like WTF.
Women or any other person. I don’t need to hear that you think she’s gorgeous, it’s missing all of the point.
Is it though? It seems to me that at least part of the point is that the conservative appears to take it as read that everyone would find the image on the right less appealing when that’s not at all true. The fact that this is wrong is part of the stupidity on display, and bears pointing out.
Pointing out to who? For what purpose? Why do they unanimously prefer the picture on the left to begin with? Do you think the person on the right needs to be told they’re sexually desirable? Where do you think this picture came from originally? Can we talk about the larger themes without talking about personal preferences? Because they’re telling on themselves and it’s going over your head.
Normalise not talking about women in terms of “your taste”.
It’s super off-putting
Normalise not shaming and demonizing male sexuality.
It’s super off-putting
That isn’t male sexuality, it’s a telling lack of critical thinking skills that’s disappointing to see on Lemmy.
Thats right no one is allowed to see a woman and decide if they are pleasing to the eye. That is savage and extremely off putting to be allowed to have that choice. /s
It certainly is when the discussion should be about the fucking pedos leading these shit stains. Context m8.
They like little innocent malleable girls, so when you see the juxtaposition and decide to offer your dicks 2 cents, yeah it’s a gross red flag that no one needs to hear. Don’t understand why you’d feel the need to mention it in the first place? If you work it out let me know.
Zzzz there’s a difference in expressing how beautiful someone is and how fly they be
