I find it ridiculous that marriage between first cousins is illegal because "the kids may be born retarded", but marriages between people with serious genetical conditions aren't, when the risk of the kid being born with some genetic defect is much, much higher than in the case of cousins. I have zero empathy for people with serious conditions who choose to breed. There's no excuse for it. I personally don't get the appeal of fucking your cousin, but I still consider it far less disgusting and not as morally wrong.

Bad idea, whether or not the customer is skinny.
The more body types are modelling items of clothing, the easier it will be for people to figure out what works for their body and what doesn't. I'd even go as far as to argue that having plus sized vs "normal" sized examples isn't enough. In an ideal universe, there would be pear/hourglass/rectangle/apple/hourglass/etc shape examples for items of clothing, in all size ranges.
It'd even give more jobs to more models.

Poor families at least you have no real expectation of support, so you can atleast plan on if you can get a scholarship or the reality of getting loans. So many middle class kids are fucked over because their parents have such a big income (by US standards) that they can't get any support or financial aid. My friend's mom owns and rents property, his dad has owns a restaurant and has owned others in the past. Both tried to claim him as a dependent despite the fact he's been on his own since like 17 and didn't get a stimulus because of them. He has to plan his income weekly and can't really afford to go off track on frivolous shit.
I really do hope with the new generation of parents someone finally makes it "cool" to actually fuckin be there for your children. That 18 doesn't magically mean your job is done for something you chose to sing up for.

Maybe it's just because of my own experience and I'm not trying to invalidate your problem, but I feel like this issue is worse when it's about picking clothes when you're busty. Take your example; the model clearly has breasts that are very far apart and fairly small for her size. It gives me absolutely 0 idea of what a larger chest would look like in it and whether the cut would be too deep.

It would create more jobs, ensure the new generation is healthier, people who don't want to be parents wouldn't need to, but they wouldn't take their good genes into the grave either.
The person in charge of each orphanage should definitely be elected by the local cities and towns though, so the political party in power doesn't have too much power to teach them dogma.

You can't even say to put them in adoption centers cause, be honest, how many children are really getting adopted? How many children are being "adopted" so the foster parents can make a quick buck? How many children who
are adopted get mistreated? It's honestly just not a good plan for a lot of reasons imo.

>>715577Why do people always say dystopian? If you keep it democratically elected on a local level and transparent so social workers can make sure the conditions are good, it shouldn't turn into any "evil government raises loyal pawns" kind of thing.

>>714911Incest isn't illegal because "their kids can be born retarded", that's stupid. Incest is illegal because the setting is most likely about abusing your power as a relative by grooming your sister, daughter etc. into a relationship. When you hear about a father and a daughter having an affair, wouldn't your first thought be that the dad took advantage of his position? Because that's usually how it is, even when they try to assure that it's a "completely consensual" relationship. It's immoral in the same sense as a teacher dating a student because there's a questionable power dynamic but even more severe because you're directly related by family.
However I agree that people with severe genetic defects should at least be consulted about giving a birth and what risk it can pose to their children. It's considered unethical to let two animals carrying a lethal gene to breed but for humans it isn't for some reason.

Other point might be that most of these games are directed to the western male public that prefers playing a strong looking dude rather than a cute femboy one.

>>716128Given the examples anon used, if she's talking about DMC5 and the RE remakes especially, the characters have face models wearing the characters' clothes being scanned so it's not a matter of style in that case. Not sure if that's the case for the Yakuza games too, but I know it's the case for Judgement because of a face model being replaced for one of the characters because of a drug scandal and I think it's some kind of spin-off.
In the West in the previous gens games tried too hard to look realistic so there were too many games that looked ugly as fuck because the technology wasn't developed enough yet. I feel like that's still kind of the case for some very recent games, maybe it depends on studios. Meanwhile for DMC5 and the RE remakes Capcom specifically tried to hire handsome or beautiful models and their engine works better on male characters than on female characters because Trish looks uglier than her real life face model.

And it's not like all of them are anachan femboys like that other anon said, plenty of Japanese male characters are still tall and muscular, they're just a bit more… elegant in the face, and tend to be clean-shaven and have longer hair, whereas western characters lean more towards the superhero Chad jawline and military haircut and beard look.

Also rich-ness is relative. Rich to someone who is poor could be middle class. Rich to someone who is middle class could be a 7/8 figure salary. It just depends.

>>716682How is that being deliberately obtuse?
> Who the hell says "I want to be rich" and actually means "I want to be middle class?"Like I said, what is considered rich differs from person to person.
>Why wouldn't you just say "I want to make enough money to provide myself and my family a safe and comfortable lifestyle" if that's what you're actually after? Being "rich" would provide a comfortable lifestyle.
I don't get how someone describes how much money they want to make would even be an issue to you. Either way, a poor person would still need to make a lot more money to improve their life.
No. 716716
>>716690>I don't get how someone describes how much money they want to make would even be an issue to youYou really have to ask yourself after a certain point why having that level of wealth is actually necessary. Why does someone need to live in a mansion instead of a house? Why do they need ten luxury sports cars instead of one? Why do they need three closets full of brand name clothes instead of a modest selection of brand name/high quality items?
The problem with aspiring to be rich, if that in itself is your primary goal, is that, depending on how tied that goal is to your ego and sense of security, it becomes rigid and almost obsessive need. You become willing to cut corners and engage in unethical practices in order to make the most money in the quickest amount of time. You con and manipulate people, justifying to yourself that it's okay because you
need the money. Some of the worst examples of this are those who run pyramid schemes, or cults.
Obviously, some people get lucky and end up very successful and wealthy because they become well-known within a particular niche, or in the right place at the right time, but there's a difference between these people and those who are primarily motivated by the very notion of being rich. Realistically, nobody needs to be rich. People need to be able to provide for themselves and their families, and yes, the context matters here. For example, living in a 3bdrm house in Los Angeles as opposed to rural Kentucky, or if you have 3 kids instead of one. Aspiring to be comfortably middle or even upper-middle class is normal. Wanting to be rich, just for the sake of being rich, is not, and is almost always indicative of a deeper emotional issue that the person needs to address and work through. It's a cope, and it shouldn't be encouraged.

>>716776>it's actually extremely easy to become overweight/obeseAgreed. People think that acknowledging that means you're making excuses for being fat, but so much money and brainpower is invested in making hyper palatable, ubiquitously marketed junk food, is it any surprise that many people can't keep a handle on their weight? I'm on the lower end of a healthy BMI but it takes a lot of effort and willpower to stay there because I have a big appetite.
I like reading weight loss stories but it's funny how most fat people have some essay length explanation for why they're fat. They always go in depth about whatever mental health/emotional problems/childhood trauma made them that way. But lbr, the simple reason is that high cal food is delicious and hard to resist for many people. It's not that deep and if it tastes good enough, people will make any excuse to justify eating it whether it's 'I'm an emotional eater' 'my parents always made me clear my plate as a child' etc etc.

>>717063One of my least fave parts of being a woman is having 'good hair' and 'bad hair' dictated and then the trends changing anyway. The whole thing of attaching massive sweeping fake lashes and making your brows bushy or really bold..like why? I mean the amount of time we spend removing body hair but then we'll buy and glue lil fake hairs to our eyelids and paint on bold brows because brows and lashes are the good hair! You need more of the good hair!
Every part of a woman that has hair needs to constantly groomed or upkept in one of two ways, either removed or exaggerated. There's no hair that we can just leave be and say "that's the amount of hair I naturally have and it's fine the way it is"
I saw a bunch of scrotes rushing to a youtubers comment section lately because some male youtuber had essentially sent them there to harrass her. The thing that half of them chose to criticise…her brows. Her entirely natural brows. They weren't bushy, they weren't overplucked. Entirely normal no makeup brows. Scrotes are playing 'brow critic' now. Parroting the same lines the bitchy women and bitchy gays use except…men don't have clue what it's like to be told every hair on your body needs constant adjusting or fixing.

How come no one, left or right, understands that relationships should strive to be equal. Not that it's easy but using compromise. It makes plain sense that two people would be happiest if both are treated like human beings on the same ground. I'm thinking of heterosexuality in fact. The right thinks women should submit to their husbands and the left basically supports that too, but calls it kink. It frustrates me that both sides critique the approach of the other but can't get it right. They can't comprehend that maybe, if you treat your partner well, they would be happier and healthier.
tbh I read 4chan men's opinions that women are attracted to misogyny. bullshit for me, though tbf I guess the bdsm and tradthots are, but that relationship is not going to be healthy… How can they not see this, I know I know what can you expect. I think they're blinded by their limited view of women and can't see that if she's unhappy, it'd probably affect them too, and their kids. If you expect her to be happy being mistreated, it's just not going to function because no one can. I know you can't expect anything from them but NO ONE gets this, when it seems so obvious. I think that's why so many relationships are miserable but never confront why. The happiest couples I've seen loved each other as equals and you could tell.
Btw "equal" doesn't have to mean "do the same role" which is why some "trad" couples do well, they are basically larping the trad way while clearly loving and listening to each other's input, I have seen that on occasion.

>>717337True. Sarkeesian isn't a feminist icon or based, she's a con artist who wanted to make money by igniting controversy under the guise of surface feminism. Almost
all of the influential alt-right icons who were riling people up during the 2016 elections got their start from Gamergate. She gave a platform to disgusting degens like Brianna Wu and opportunistic sociopaths like Zoey Quinn who in turn promoted their close companions to positions where they are allowed to radicalize the masses more.
She could've opened up a good discussion about sexism in video games but instead she opted to go for the babby's first "hurr damsel in distress baaaad" discourse and then branded every internet troll a death threat sending murderer to milk for more donation money. She created this whole pyramid scheme of merchandized liberal feminism where you keep making superficial claims you know will cause controversy and then run off with the money you make with the pity bucks. As an oldfag I would say that she was one of the biggest reasons why the misogynistic gamerbro culture came to be in the 2010's and I had never met as much aggressive sexism in gaming communities in the 2000's or 90's for example. The occasional "lol girls don't play vidya!" turned into "get raped you dumb roastie whore".

>>717466They did get suppressed in the beginning. Social media sites kept banning them left and right and deplatforming them the best they could. 4chan kicked them out because moot was too afraid of being sued. That's exactly why 8chan opened their gates for them, they weren't welcomed anywhere else. And that's where the radicalization started. Then the ideology kept branching out and digging deeper everywhere and becoming mainstream.
Also I don't know how radfem/black power communities can compare. Alt right is mostly young white guys who are ultimately more privileged and louder than fringe communities like radical feminism that barely gets support as a group for women.

>>718372I dont get this "logic"
1) How are many populations going to prefer fair hair if its not commonplace or even native to their population ? I thought people are supposed to prefer who they were raised with which is usually a homogeneous population
2) How is it that the fertile and youth signals only exist for women, yet doesnt for men ? Men have a peak fertility too and a youth where their testesterone is the highest, so why doesnt youth signalling work men as much as it does for women ?
3) How can fair hair be a signal of youth to some populations who never have fair hair in their youth ?
This never makes sense to me and always seems to be Eurocentric evopsych bullshit that opens to pedophilia, considering people who are born with fair hair that gradually darkens normally appears when they are toddlers/very young children. Not the actual "fertile" years, by this same line of logic, of adolescence..

>There are higher numbers of females born blonde than males and retention of blonde hair into adulthood is a sexually selected indicator of fitness in females.4 Caucasian blondes are usually slightly higher in oestrogen than brunettes and are likely to exhibit other infantile sexually selected traits (indicating low levels of testosterone) that are considered desirable by males, for example finer facial features, smaller nose, smaller jaw, pointed chin, narrow shoulders, smooth skin and less body hair, and infantile behaviour such as higher energy levels and playfulness.5It's sad men have those pedo tendencies but that's just how they're programmed

And you said men prefer blondes since the Ice Age but even in European civilisation there were periods where dark hair or darker hair on women was preferred like during the Victorian and Edwardian era. Blonde hair didnt start to get ideal in West Europe again until Nazi Germany, funnily enough.
Thirdly and lastly, I dont know about the more feminine argument because this same argument is used for East Asian women who have some of the darkest hair and eye colors on the planet. Idk man, all this evopsych shit is contradictory within even its own consensus and ahistorical.

The reason for this situation might be a quest for ‘rare’ genes, which could help in the host–parasite race discussed below.

The real reason is that men hold commitment hostage while simultaneously telling women we're worthless without marriage and kids. If men in their 20s point blank refuse to start families, but women in their 20s are desperate to do so, what else would you expect but girls going for older men solely to secure that commitment? It's very calculated and intentional on men's part, it benefits them in every way. Sleep around in your youth, get a girl out of your league when you're old and fug.

Like even on rad fem tumblr most of the discussion centers around how TROONS are the most evil creatures in the world and then in lib fem circles it is of course the classic omgg the oppressed trans women. TRANS WOMEN ARE REAL WOMEN uwu.
I think they fail to see that even sex work and trans women are a result of patriarchal society FFS because men were in charge of our society for the most part of our human history and they miserably failed us.

>>719836anon, of course it was a metaphorical exaggeration. But a lot of rad fems end up putting the blame on the women inside the sex work industry when it is the men who run it from the back and when it is men that abuse and neglect those girls that end up being sex workers or groom them. Some radical feminists also advocate for shaming sex workers which is not very smart since they are
victims even if they have money and seem happy or they make marketing choices such as Tweeting positive stuff about sex work. I know it may seem like they are pushing sex work on young women but believe me, men are the true culprit here and they will promote sex work towards young women because they own most of the capital in the world and all pornographic enterprises.

>>719848But being a stay at home wife is not universally a bad decision for women in these days altho feminism arised as a way to liberate women and give them the opportunity to work in the same fields men do.
There are circumstances in which being a stay at home wife is more feminist than being a slave to a male owned corporation. Now you will think house wife= woman under the control of her husband but it is not like that in all cases. Some men are nice, educated and treat their significant other very well and bring in a lot of money. In such case it is a very feminist decision to be a stay at home mom.
So if you compare these two hypothetical situations: Woman working hard in a corporation owned by men where she is not respected vs woman staying at home with a nice husband that can provide for her I think the latter is more feminist. It all depends on the circumstance

abusive, molests your child and so on. That’s the exact opposite of “living freely” and being outside of a man’s control by the very nature of the setup. If said woman has a considerable amount of savings so she could easily leave with her child and seek employment in that situation then fine, but also, you’re kind of fucked sometimes depending on whether the man wants to take you to court and have joint custody. It can be hell for both the woman and kid. The nature of radical feminism is such that it advocates for women developing total independence outside of men’s control, so yeah, putting yourself in a position where you are placing a ton of trust in the hands of a scrote isn’t in line with those beliefs. But as
>>719846 said your choices don’t
have to always be political, I know some radfems who are happily married with kids and that’s awesome for them that it worked out, but they are very cognizant of the fact that they aren’t the norm and many other women have gotten screwed over in similar setups.

>>719838>>719854I consider myself pretty feminist and while I don't agree that stay-at-home-momming is feminist, it's also not anti-feminist.
The fact of the matter is: It exists because most societies aren't conducive to offering parents adequate, affordable, and trustworthy childcare so they can continue their careers while their children are young. It's more of a capitalism issue and a problem with the solo nuclear family. The misogyny comes into play when people think women should be EXPECTED to sacrifice their careers and stay home in order to be "good" parents while their husbands get to fuck around and receive asspats for taking their kids to the park like that one time.
I don't blame women an inch for choosing to be stay at home. If I have children, I'd be very tempted to myself because US childcare is an overpriced scam. I want to be able to spend time during my child's early development and formative years. I really don't care about my job, but I do want to make money. I realize full well that having a gap in my resume could affect my future prospects and earning potential, whereas if the man had the same it wouldn't affect him nearly as much. It's an unfair system.

US mothers who aren't rich enough to buy parenting or aren't extremely poor to qualify for programs get fucked on all fronts.
First world countries (that are not the US) have been fairer to new mothers by guaranteeing long terms of paid maternity leave, subsidized if not free childcare, and social welfare resources to make up for any other differences regardless of income.

Is a woman pimping out other women for scrotes feminist, because she's "empowered" within a misogynistic framework and she technically chose that? Is it feminist to surrender your wellbeing to men, just because you chose that for yourself? What does deliberately choosing to be unequal and uphold unequal aspects of society do to support women's equality?
You can still support feminism without all your actions being feminist-oriented. Most people really are just living life based on what's convenient and least painful for them, even if they do want a better future for others/coming generations. Not everyone can be a super activist or ideologically/personally perfect. It's whatever, you already exist.

But you have to understand that women who are feminist but still interested in marrying men and raising children with them (so the wast majority of women) have completely different goals than, say, women who - regardless of orientation - want their private lives to be separated from males.
Feminism is not just about rights, it's also about goals. The end goal. Most feminists want equality with men (whatever that means), but there's a small number of feminists who want liberation from men. They will always be a minoroty (because living in a man-made system is easier with a male partner), they don't pose any threat to women who still want to marry men, be housewives, be stay at home moms etc. So why do you want them to fight for "all women", even though their goals are completely different?
There are also black separatists (and there's a big difference between separatism and segretation btw). Of course there's much more black people who want to live among white people than black separstists, but do black separstists evoke fear in white people? Probably yes. I wonder why.

>>719814Radfems don't call women worthless whores. Literally the point of radical feminism is to help women in such situations and not ridicule them and push them down further.
I don't think those anons that scream whore all the time in celebricow thread would call themselves radfems for example, even though this site has a high amount of us.
All radfem circles I've been in have been very civil when it comes to sexwork conversations and even accepted fellow women that did and
still do sexwork and camming.

>>720069If societies would recognize the value of mothers bonding with their babies and small children, and would pay them a wage so they wouldn't have to sacrifice a third of their income to childcare while playing supermom between work, or make themselves vulnerable by depending on a man for income if they choose not to work for their child's benefit, what exactly makes staying at home as a parent not feminist?
When you take the financing out of the equation, it's normal human behavior to be with your kids raising them during the first years of their lives.
You're hung up on the fact that SAH parenting was discouraged because it made women vulnerable to men due to money and control. When societies provide these women with a baseline of income, abuse isn't likely at all and quality of life increases. So stay at home parenting isn't the true issue.

>>720125There's a button for it now on the little video bar next to the CC button. I find that mine sometimes turns on by itself though, which is fucking annoying.
>>720112Tbh there are lots of anons who call women (not just sexworkers) sluts, whores, and other derogatory names in /ot/. It's one of the reasons I can't take radfem conversations serious
on lc of course, I'm not speaking about other radfem communities on the internet. I'm not in them so I wouldn't know. I can't help but think that farmers who calls themselves radfem, are the same ones calling women sluts, talking about meeting up with men from r9k, saying that women choose to be abused when they enter relationships with men, picking a part every action of a woman they don't like, shaming women for small things etc…
I know this website is anonymous so we can never know for sure who's who, but a lot of the posters claim to be radfem so I feel like it's pretty fair to assume the ones saying that are also the same anons posting crazy shit.
reposted for small typo No. 720153
>>720133I agree with you. Here's the scenario I had in my head:
If I have daughters and sons who I choose to stay at home with, telling me that raising them with feminist values and teaching them about equality (things they most likely would not receive in most childcare settings), giving my daughter extra attention, etc. isn't feminist because it isn't picket-activism is bullshit.
I agree that not every SAHM is feminist, but being a SAHM can be feministic.
It's a mistake for anons to assume being a working mom, or limiting the choice to have children, is feminist. I don't see what's great about society making child rearing so burdensome that women who might have entertained raising kids don't want to risk it. Or that a woman now has to work a 40+ hour week and then come home to be a domestic manager in order to be considered a "feminist" parent and doing a good job for essentially working herself dry.

We have made some small progress it is just excruciatingly slow and imperfect progress. They bring to mind the black separatists, I forget what those are called
>>720180exactly. I can only understand the separatists who want their own small communities but not the ones who get mad at most other women who won't do it.

>>720185Yes, let's add dozens of whatifs. I don't deny that an excrutiating number of women find themselves in situations where they aren't left without much choice but it doesn't change the fact that they're bringing more people into the world that will continue the old order. Technologies go forward, political systems go through pendulum swings, environments transform but the archaic position of a man subordinate to an idea/ideology/god and woman being subordinate to man is forever because it's unfortunately determined by biology and men holding power and sources of power like media and universities can mold opinions that will impede any significant progress.
>>720195nta but noone's saying or at least I don't mean that straight women wanting to lead a traditional life of being mothers should be denied rights. There's plenty of branches in feminism if not almost all that take lots of time and effort to speak for mothers and the majority of straight women. I don't know what you expect us to say?

>>720199>I would rather go out tryingExcept most women never go out and try, they just sit and breed and benefit from what a (fairly) small group of activists fought for. It will never be enough.
And like this anon said
>>720185 some women prefer to live with men rather than alone and struggling. So male-partnered women have to admit that living with a male makes it easier (financially) and it also gives them a higher status in the eyes of society, women who are alone, or homosexual, or childless are seen as lesser. In many european countries they literally pay you for breeding and you get money for the child until they're 18. A woman with a child won't end up homeless, they will give her an apartment to stay in. But a childless woman, even if she's young, won't get help. A woman who has children and a husband will be prioritized for medical care. A woman who's childless, especially if she's older than 30, may not even get any help, especially now in covid times. Many such cases in my country. Are those women less valuable as people? Of course not, but society values you as a mother MORE than childless women. Society values het-partnered women more than singles or lesbians or febfems.
I constanyly struggle with money and my life would've been so much easier if I had a male partner, but I'd rather be poor than live with someone who feels entitled to my body and expects me to be his psychotherapist, maid and a breeder.
We should be focusing 100% on helping women to be self-sufficient, not on telling them "it's ok if you want to be a housewife and completely economically dependent on a male"

I think that even aside from the rampant pedophilia and rape that runs the porn industry, people who can't masturbate without watching porn just have a fundamentally broken sexuality. Well-functioning, balanced humans don't need it, and in a sense, it's almost like a form of self-cuckoldry. It doesn't really make sense to train yourself to primarily be aroused by watching endless clips of people who aren't you having sex.
I don't care how many coomers try to normalize it, or make it seem like everyone does it. It's pathetic, like something a heavily isolated monkey stuck in a box, disallowed from interaction with other monkeys, would grow fixated on.
That whole "gooning"/porn addict community isn't just a fetish or fantasy talk, it's a raw admission that many of these people have fucked themselves up, and are too addicted to do anything about it. It's basically a greedy porn company CEO's dream, and any sane person's nightmare.

>>716968Somewhat related note, I was looking for eye references on pinterest the other day and stumbled into this nightmare fuel. These over-edited pictures of children with their eyes made 200% larger, over-sharpened and over-saturated are such a bizzare genre of photography. The kids are always poor or in war-torn countries and their eyes are always piercingly bright blue. I don't know if I think it's pedophilic. I also don't know who, except a pedophile, would make pinterest boards full of childrens' eyes either, so… To actually tie this into the thread, my unpopular opinion is photos like these & those in the same genre of the Nat Geo 'Afghan Girl' are at worst exploitative and at best uninspired.

The reality is, very few women are dangerously underweight or can maintain extremely restrictive diets for long enough to cause serious health issues. Even fewer abuse drugs or surgeries for the sake of it. There are harmful outcomes from trying to lose weight in unhealthy ways, but it's nowhere near the epidemic of mass proportions that obesity is.

I did that and realized how miserable it is. Real farming can be even more labor intensive with people working 10 hour days with no vacations. Or there are even domestic opportunities to volunteer/help out on farms/the outdoors and they don't do it.
I'm just annoyed by how many people think they are too good for society while not admitting they are too incompetent and lazy to do otherwise. "I'm sooo totally going to move into a farm/cabin and be away from society." No you're not so shut up.

makeup, etc) that enables the men to only watch women’s sports “for the plot”. In their minds if they wanted to watch the sports, they’d watch men’s.

>>722391I agree with you but wanna add that mens figure skating is basically battle of the quad jumps with a little artistry put in depending on the skater and choreographer/coach. Nathan Chen for instance is a remarkable athlete but isn’t that fun to watch as a performer. Yuzuru Hanyu is better from a performance standpoint but overall I much prefer womens figure skating since the female form is a lot prettier to watch on the ice. So even if women are “behind” on jumps compared to men, they still are much more enjoyable to watch. Same can be said for women’s gymnastics.
No. 722461
>>722411I would argue that even on the technical side of things, many people are genuinely far more invested in women's skating than men's. As a group overall, men's upper body strength and lower bf% allows them 1 extra rotation in the air compared to most women on the same level, but it's the same jump with the same entry and is otherwise the same to watch. Their advantages do not improve their jumping technique, or make their skating skills better, or make their spins better, it doesn't make them more graceful or artistic, it doesn't make them more consistently able to land jumps, and it doesn't make them more interesting to watch unless you're particularly invested in quads (and even if you are, it can be just as exciting to follow the Russian girls quad battle). It's literally just related to their strength rather than skill.
People who try to discourage women from sports because we may have physical limitations compared to men are absolutely the worst fucking people, it's beyond mean spirited and goes completely against the concept of sportsmanship.

While individual physical features and traits can themselves be considered subjectively "attractive" or "unattractive" due to social and cultural connotations, and these connotations can differ from society to society, trying to measure the beauty of a whole human physical appearance - entire faces or bodies - is a fool's errand, because depending on so many various factors (some which a person is in control of and some which they aren't - age, weight, height, bone structure, lighting, framing, color of them or colors around them, clothing, cosmetic alterations) the exact same person can look conventionally "attractive" and then look conventionally "unattractive" five minutes later.
It is possible to take two pictures of the exact same person, but take the picture, and depict them, in such a way that someone could consider one of the pictures to depict an "attractive" person and one to depict an "unattractive" person. Every person you can think of, no matter how subjectively attractive you find them to be, can be framed to appear as unattractive as a person you subjectively consider the most unattractive person you can think of. Beauty isn't just subjective, it can be impossible to accurately assign to a person.
