Why Do Some Attractive Women Date Ugly Men?
You’re sitting at a table outside of a café nursing your favorite frosty beverage when you see a stunning creature pass by. This bombshell’s got long, sexy legs, silky hair, perfect skin, a gorgeous, angelic face, and curves that would put Jessica Alba to shame. As you watch this woman confidently strut her stuff, everything feels like it’s in slow motion and
the intro to Pretty Woman starts to play in the distance (in your imagination, anyway). You’re above average in the looks department yourself, but when you see this fine woman, you think, “Forget it. She is WAAAY out of my league.” As you wipe the drool from the corner of your gaping mouth, you suddenly hear the record screech to a halt because an ugly little fella invades your daydream. You nearly fall out of your chair because Miss Lady’s “date” is none other than this short, fat lad with a receding hairline who looks like the offspring of LeBron James and Chucky.
Beautiful Women, Ugly Men: Why, Why, Why?
Why do you see so many beautiful women with horrendously ugly men? And more importantly, what drives these beauties to settle for guys who look like they got pummeled with a potato masher when they were newborns? Most men are quick to assume that attractive women date ugly guys because of their fat wallets, but there’s often more meat to these situations than meets the eye. Take my cousin, for example. She looks like Julia Roberts and is a successful theatre
actress, but her husband is an out-of-work actor who could easily be mistaken for Steve Buscemi’s lost twin. I’m sure everybody wonders, “Why is SHE with HIM?” when they seem them together, but I think my cousin’s a smart cookie. She’s with a loyal, loving man who’s grateful to be with such a gorgeous woman and would never do anything to screw it
up. On the other hand, if my cousin were dating a man who was as good looking as her, she’d likely have to deal with ogling females trying to move in on her territory and spend most of her free time taming her man’s wandering eyes.
The Low Down
The general consensus is that ugly men treat their women better because they’re fully aware that they’ve lucked out. But of course there are always exceptions to the rule; some ugly guys are just as jerkish and pompous as their hunky, six pack-possessing brethren. Then there’s that whole issue of supply-and-demand. According to studies, there are
more beautiful women in the world than handsome men, meaning that the pickings are slimmer for women. So, some hot broads pick ugly dudes to be with because, well, that’s all there is left. In other cases, attractive women might date ugly men because they are insecure and need constant reassurance about their looks, which ugly dudes gladly provide. Also, many pretty ladies yearn for a mate who appreciates them for more than just their appearance. Good looking guys tend to be more shallow and egotistical than ugly guys, meaning that they pick attractive women to become their trophy girlfriends. And most smart, confident women don’t want to be with douchebags like that.
My Stance
C’mon, there’s more to people than their looks. Who would you rather be with: the beefcake who’s a liar, cheater, and overall meanie or the sweet, soft-spoken ugly guy who’s charming and intelligent to boot? Rather than being shallow and talking smack about every beautiful gal-ugly guy combo you set eyes on, perhaps you should wonder what that homely guy has that you don’t (or that your partner doesn’t). Remember, no matter what you look like, it’s possible to find an attractive mate, as long as you cultivate a kind, likeable personality and treat people well (oh, and having money helps, too
).
What’s your take on ugly men dating beautiful women? Does it irk you when you see it or do you think the hot guys could learn a thing or two from the ugly guys?

Ralph –
Probably because you have horrible grammar and syntax, you can’t spell, & have run on sentences. Probably only high school educated, like camouflage and tube tops, drink PBR and think a night on the town is at the local dive bar. Just by reading this you come off as creepy… STALKER creepy. Probably a little pushy and a lot CLINGY. Girls aren’t into that sort of thing.
