:jbhmm: explain please
There is generally a larger variety of men deemed to be socially acceptably attractive than women. There's no female equivalent to Benedict Cumberbatch or Mads Mikkelsen or Matt Smith. I mean, this probably has to do with women being valued primarily for their appearance. Men are attractive for reasons other than their appearance. This is the root of the stereotypes that women can't have any secondary characteristics (humour, intelligence, etc). I think women have been taught to settle, as well. We can see this in those sitcoms with the fat ass ugly husband and the attractive wife. But I feel like in 2015 we should be seeing a wider variance of women being deemed attractive, and I don't see it happening. They're all just coalescing around the instagram look. As the gender rules become less codified, we should see an evening out. I just wanna see more weird looking girls being promoted in mainstream.

This happens because most of the population doesn't do shyt but watch what's mainstream. People with diverse backgrounds that get exposed to a lot of shyt and READ a lot (being exposed to real female non prop characters in literature) can see through the IG stuff. I dont know what you mean by "weird" but if you mean more chicks with platinum hair and purple eyes then lets go.
