Sad, but I have to agree this is true. I'd be hard pressed to name an "ugly" female musician. On the other hand, naming an "ugly" male artist would take about five seconds.
Why is this, I wonder? Is that just the way the industry is? Or do all woman musicians just "happen" to be very attractive? perhaps the industry as a whole is male-dominated, thus these standards set.
I care to disprove it. Face trumps body every time for me.
glad to hear it not to say that body shouldnt be a factor in attraction - it's always going to be, obviously, and if you have a nice body you should be proud of it. face just shows more of who you truly are, imo. it's more personal, less carnal. a million guys can have a killer body but every face is different.
I optimistically believe that every woman is or will be the Most Beautiful Girl In the World to some man at some point in their lives.
you make good posts

It's not the importance of physical attractiveness that is the issue, it's the prioritizing of physical attractiveness and the limiting of it to such standards that most women can never recreate in the real world. I'm not saying all or most men do that, but many do. I do believe that the media creates those standards not only for women, but for men too. I find it difficult to believe that men who view porn (or FHM or similar magazines) on a regular basis don't compare the average woman to that. I can look at pictures of good looking men until my eyes are crossed , but I don't go out and compare any or all men to them or have unrealistic expectations because of it. I wonder how (and how much) men and women are different in that regard.
good points... maybe it's because, as someone else said before, there seems to be plenty of "perfect" looking women out there already
