I love reading random people’s blogs. It brings me joy. Anyway, today I read one of my new follower’s posts entitled “Are ‘hot’ people overrated?”. It starts off with an interesting little piece of research which finds that the hearts of men become damaged (literally) whenever they come into contact with a hot chick, especially one “who he believes is out of his league”. That’s right, some chemical in the male body decides to get all brutal in the presence of anyone supremely bone-able. Kinda sucks for you guys, doesn’t it? This leads the writer to discuss the difference between getting lucky and getting laid, saying that guys can “get lucky” by going for a chick who is out of their league, and succeed, OR they can be realists and go for what they know they can get, i.e. the average chick, and therefore “get laid”. Apparently, going for the uglier chick means the guy is less delusional which hey, that may be the truth. You can’t hate on a guy for knowing his position in the world, and what he can achieve with what he’s got. So if he doesn’t feel like he’s in the same league as a chick, he won’t go for it. That’s smart, that’s being realistic. But…from my perspective, why not be a risk taker? Fair enough, a guy can know his limits but why not push them? Is it because he doesn’t feel he deserves better? Who is to say anyone is out of your league? I can’t say I’m the hottest girl in the world and I know realistically I ain’t gonna be bringing home that really hot dude from Supernatural anytime soon. However, if I’m attracted to someone, I’m not going to hit on his less hot brother just because I think I will have more success. Oh heeeellll no. I always give it a go! Even if I get rejected (and yeah, I probably will), and even if my heart suffers a little chemical damage, at least I gave it a shot. Because who knows! Everyone should believe that they are worthy of anything they desire, as fucking cheesy as that sounds. Sure, rejection may be the most probable result in some cases but I say, fuck it! Better to climb to the highest branch and fall than to stand at the bottom of the tree like a pussy and never see the view!
P.S. I don’t do ugly dudes.

Yo, suuupppp!?!
ReplyDeleteYour "A response to Mr Anonymous" piece is good man!
Couldn't agree more, the "out of their league" catch phrase is one i can't stand tho!!(all the "researchers" use it too)
But, since sports references seem to be the best way to describe sumthing these days, let me try one i came up with randomly...
People should treat meeting guys or girls like a sports bet, if u win ...cool, if not, MEH ... who gives a fuck, just dont invest too much of urself into it, because the only person doing damage to yourself is you then!
The dating world is like that cruel girl(or boy possibly) that used to tease you in high school thinking you had a chance gettin with em. Lets face it, in this category ...most people never grew up, and still have the psyche of a teenager anyways, making the above point more relevant than i originally anticipated! hah
And what does "their out of my league" even mean anyways?
Are there divisions that you have to be in to even look at these women(or men)? ...Pffffff screw that, if i ever meet Rachel Bilson, im gunna ask her "U sure ur happy with Hayden Christensen?" ... and after she sprays me with mace, and my eyes are clean again, i know ill say to myself, good work Luke :D
Case in point: Fuck anyone that thinks or makes you think "their out of your league" ...and if ur doing it to urself, STOP.... Like a smoker with lung cancer, QUIT YOUR BAD HABITS, NO-ONE CAN HELP YOU, EXCEPT YOURSELF!!!!
Thats my 2 cents haha,
Peace out ;)
