in my mind, thinking of a man does matter.

no matter how good someone’s look is but want to steal other money.

Relax: Like you said, it’s only to some extent. You have to admit that some people are born better-looking that others. And there are cases which only surgery can help.

I think it’s perfectly fine being a “lookist” and favouring more attractive people. The only issue I have is against people who insult or criticise less attractive people.

@Sheylara: Fair enough. At the very least, I do see some of the regular posters of that forum, as well as MySpace users, sticking up for the couple.

I do not know what u think but I think people do have responsibility over their physical looks to some extend, unless they are born mutated or involved in accident.

I believe a persons outer feature is influenced by inner quality. I am partially a lookist. Sorry if my view is slightly different from yours. Life is not perfectly fair to people.

arachno: People laughing at other people happens a lot and I think we can afford to be more relaxed about it because humans need to learn to laugh at themselves once in a while. What I really can't condone is people maliciously insulting others for their looks as if it's a crime. JayWalk: Yeah. Lot's of disrespect in the world, sadly. Kim: You have a point. We could never really get used to the fact that Internet anonymity breeds evil, huh? Priss: It's true. Probably more and more people are getting indifferent towards Internet bashing. But then, it will be hard for the person who is being bashed to be indifferent! ByPassing: Yes, exactly my sentiments. I always say that people should consider all sides of an issue before they jump into conclusions and insult or accuse other people. Sorry to hear about your platoon mate's sister. That's one sad story :( Lee Mark A: Hi there! :) Jesta: That's a good comic to illustrate this case. RN1209: Yes, I'm adding to the millions of views because people need to KNOW and people need to be educated on the fine line between jokes and cruelty. Yoi: Yup, some of the remarks ARE hilarious and I think people can be forgiven for laughing at the remarks, even though it's not very nice. It's human nature to find the funny in ordinary situations. I just wish people know when to draw the line and not cross into downright cruelty. Although I guess it's kind of a grey area here. Who's to say where's the line? AngryAngMo: More people need to recognise this and actually believe in it. Horizon: I think a frightening number of people in the world truly believe that outer beauty is more important, although they might not admit it outright. Aaron Peng: I feel that there's nothing wrong with beauty being celebrated and hyped. It IS human nature to like looking at beautiful things. I read about an experiment once where they showed babies pictures of people in a range of attractiveness, and the babies reacted more favourably to the people who were better-looking according to general societal standards. But just because people prefer to look at good-looking people doesn't mean that the less good-looking are lesser humans or can be insulted. audreasuicide: Well, I saw many other photos of the couple and they really look very happy and comfortable with themselves. Perhaps they don't really care what others say about them and I admire them for that! tiger4: More people viewing the site won't increase the misery of the victims if the people viewing the site are viewing it with the right frame of mind and without evil intentions. W: WAPANG :( Valerie: Yep, you've got all the right adjectives to describe those people! -=}{oT~dEv1L 666=-: Er... you really feel that today's world is dominantly satanic? lol.

She is indeed ugly, but we can see the love between them. That’s a sign of true love. I’m only a teenager, and I know nothing about Love. But this thread, it tells us two things. One, Humans are Evil and Selfish. Two, there is still such a thing as true love, albeit really rare in today’s dominantly satanic world.
