Some would argue that it's in our DNA. To look for the perfect mate. And physical attributes are the first thing you see anyway, not the person's personality or character.

Appearance is the first thing we notice about a person we've never met. It's not a bad thing though. How someone chooses to portray themselves says a lot about the underlying personality. A fat person can look good if they take the time to properly groom/dress for their body size. Same goes for a thin person. The judgement comes from unrealistic expectations placed upon people to look like cartoon characters or fashion models all the time(who aren't even real anyway... it's 99% photoshop).

tl:dr: once people start accepting the reality of how we actually look, things will get better. :)

we like what we like

real connection =a good heart and soul
in sync with ours
connection that lasts

there is a lid for every strange looking pot out there
