Yeah, it's foreign to me, too...but then for once I thought about reading Idolling as if I weren't the writer of it and then I realized all of its problems. I thought about continuing but it was hard because I had so many plot holes that I couldn't clean up that I think the best way to go is to re-do it, especially since I love and want to do justice to my characters! ;3;
I think it might also be that thing that you should not be racist! XD The big thing here is that attractiveness is a HUGE term. I think the question that people are trying to ask is 'Do you pursue somebody based on your immediate opinion of their appearance compared to a group of people, or do you pursue them to understand their personalities more' My beef with the question is that there isn't an either or. You do both. I know some people who get together because they think that one guy is super good looking and then when they realize he isn't then they think he's an ugly person. People can be beautiful objectively, but attraction is mainly subjective, therefore it doesn't matter what anybody looks like or if one is intelligent or not. If that person likes you then they like you.
MOAR RANTING! HUZZAHH!!
It must be some fluctuations. Sometimes I don't want to socialize at all and then other times that's all I want to do and I feel sad if I don't...>3> Oh wellz, as long as I am happy I am fine~ ;D
On Idolling: Yay, new depths to the story! *u* That seems like a challenging theme to tackle, so good luck with that~ I wish I could help you with introducing characters and comic stuff, but it's all pretty foreign to me... "orz
On the rant: Interesting perspective! I think it's fair to say that attractiveness has a certain degree of merit beyond shallowness, as far as romantic preferences go... But maybe it's best not to get too hung up on either attractiveness or intelligence, in reality? Who knows! :V /vague response
I feel like I should have more to say about this because how people view romance is pretty interesting for me, but I can't think of anything. xD;
It's interesting that you were asked "attractiveness vs. intelligence," though. I usually hear the comparison as "attractiveness vs. personality." :o
On not socializing: Socializing can be draining! xD; Idk, I'd say go at your own pace for socializing, but idk if that's actually good advice... >3> You'll probably feel more in a mood to socialize, later... it usually fluctuates, for me.
