I’ve noticed something and I wonder if anyone agrees. You know how every once in a while the television news trots out the local racist group and gives them a couple of seconds of air time so all the normal folk can have a good laugh and be warned not to marry a first cousin? Have you ever noticed that the aforementioned racists are, um, butt ugly? I mean, like FUGLY. I mean, like U-G-L-Y - you ain’t got no alibi - you ugly, ugly!
I was watching this show and they had this woman who was the leader of this women’s KKK thing and they showed them at a rally. And I’m not trying to be funny or nothin, but seriously - fifteen or twenty of the little aryans on screen and the first thing that comes to mind is “How much is that doggy in the window?” I didn’t know that many mullets still existed in the free world, and on females no less! The only good quality is that maybe, just maybe, with the lot of ‘em, they just may have had pert near a full set of teeth! (Okay, I said that just to be mean, but dental hygeine certainly wasn’t in their top ten list of concerns…)
I fundamentally believe that everyone is attractive. Some of us need more care and maintenance than others, but I think the natural potential exists in most humans. The single largest contributor to what is seen as unattractiveness is probably apathy. If you don’t care what you look like, you are likely not taking good care of yourself and that can translate into being unattractive.
Of course, add other factors like culture into the mix and its a whole different kettle of attractive fish. Small feet translates to beauty in one culture, overweight in another.
Which leads me to my question. Can an ugly set of views lead to an ugly visage? If you spend a lifetime steeped in hate, will that show on your face? Or is it my perception that these women were ugly because of their ugly views?
