aspies view of beauty

Post Reply New Topic

do aspie males see beauty of girls the same way as neurotypicals do?

Yes and no. Beauty is ultimately in the eyes of the beholder; it is subjective. Having said this, normal people are hardwired to think when processing new ideas, "what will others think?" Aspies aren't like this--and it can be a huge advantage when we allow it to.

So, it is much more likely for an aspie to see a woman as beautiful that society doesn't. For example, the current image of feminine beauty is an image of a woman who looks like she hasn't eaten in a month--heroin chic. To my aspie brain, this is just as unattractive as a woman who looks like she had an entire buffet for lunch.

I like delicate males. And I appreciate female aesthetics in general, but I prefer if the looks were attached to a good personality.

Personally I do not, but I'm sure a lot of Aspies do.

I like to look at girls who I find attractive (which is what NT's do). But it's what's on the inside that's most important. Not boobs or one-night stands.

A lot of NTs think that too. Aspies don't own the moral high ground.

True.

True, Aspies don't own moral high ground.

I don't know - everyone has got their own tastes. I know an Autistic boy who likes girls with long hair, make-up, big boobs and slim-built. That's probably what a lot of men like in a girl too. My uncle likes annorexic girls or girls with a ''boy'' figure, which is going a bit too far. I know a man who likes fat women (although not many do).

I like fat men with beer bellies, or big tall men with big pecs and very broad shoulders. I do not like little skinny men who are smaller and skinnier than me (and I am small). Just no way, whether they're nice or not. I do prefer dark hair on a man, more than blonde hair, but I have fancied a few men with blonde hair before.

Here's something rather unique - I like older men. Men in their 20s and possibly even 30s don't do anything for me. I like men in their 40s, 50s, 60s and maybe in their 70s.

there is an ASD look and an NT look to peeps

the girls you see on magazine car bonnets and motorbikes and stuff look horrendous to me, but my NT mates go all horn dog on those ugly asses

yet when I cream my pants over a be speckled librarian type my NT acquaintance go all disinterested

I prefer beauty that compliments my own self, like most animals seek their own kind
