I think it's more an attraction thing. Who you feel sexual attraction to.

It's completely normal for straight women to not find men consciously attractive. In fact often ugly men have more actual sexual pull than cute men because high levels of testosterone make you look like a bag of spanners.

0% of women think any man is in the most attractive category based on looks alone. https://i.imgur.com/hVc9c2a.png

Much like being demisexual, most asexuals are just women who never speak to other women irl and don't read so think every normal female feeling they have must be a super special magic power.

Excuse me, but this is BULLSHIT. So many men promoting the idea that "the male form is not attractive" or that "men aren't usually considered hot, even by women".... which is 1) egocentic: straight men projecting their own preferences unto women; 2) myosginistic: "women cannot possibly find men hot, especially since they don't find me hot"!

No, buddy, usually women do find men hot and are turned on by hot dudes. And very much "consciously" so. It's natural.

I think it's mostly straight men who think they aren't attractive because duh, if you're a straight man you're not going to be impressed by what you see in the mirror. Lol.

Women do the same thing, I can't being to to tell you how many women have told me they are ugly, too fat, or whatever else, no you're fine, maybe you won't be fashion model but if you think you aren't attractive that's because you're not gay.

Exactly. The difference being that straight women don't go like "I don't find myself or other women sexy, so that means women aren't sexy in general". But straight men sometimes will go "I don't find myself or other men sexy, so that means men aren't sexy in general". So dumb.

I don't know I don't think you have the whole femcel presence that you get on the internet with mancels just cause of sex difference in behavior of who approaches who, but I've had some pretty weird talks with women who are stupid like that. I remember having one argument with a woman who maintained the position that breasts were not sexually attractive and that men were wrong to be sexually attracted to them. Lol ok. Like I think it would be weird for women to be attracted to their own bodies if they were straight, but you're just gonna be like, I don't find it attractive so no one should. Lol. Ok. Let's just ignore what men are interested in who cares what they think. It's not like I'm ever gonna date them I'm straight! Oh wait.
