Masculinity. Women who like men are attracted to masculinity. I already explained "cute ugly" men in the op. Rough looking men can be seen as more masculine, which is what makes them attractive. To those same women, pretty boys can be seen as feminine or gay, which would make them less atrractive (this doesn't apply to all women, a lot of women prefer "pretty boys"). His height and other masculine things, like facial hair matters (to me). I could only be with a guy who is tall b/c it's more masculine to me, rough looking or "cute ugly" guys are more attractive to me b/c they look more masculine.
Just like guys are attracted to femininity.
That thread is mostly average looking women with make up on, not "cute ugly" women b/c women can't be "cute ugly"
& this is why I said males call anything with make up and weave "cute". LOL
A beautiful woman with out makeup would be called average cute, but with it, you guys would be calling her a "dime"
