No seriously. I'm not trying to act high and mighty, I just wasn't exposed to seeing them often enough to have much reference.
I don't watch actual TV very often so the TV adds around now I wouldn't notice. I do all my watching over the internet and use add blockers. So TV commercial references often go right over my head.

Hmm. That wasn't a nice way talking about a human being doing a professional job she has been chosen for, and payed for. I haven't seen the ads and cannot tell you my personal view on their looks but I am sure they have been chosen very carefully by the people doing their jobs.
It's mean to all of the models as you made it a general remark about the models used to look good. You did not say anything about it not covering all of them. Your jab at the company is on the expenses of all the female models they use. That is mean in my perception. Have a lovely day.
Whatever,, you say . (or want it to mean in your mind ).
but , before you go please tell us . if you have never thought of anyone as unattractive .. or even commented on it . if you say no . i call bullshit . cause you hinted above about telling your personal view on their looks if you saw the ads .
hence you can drop the holier than thou act .
if you havent . then go ahead .. ignore my explanation again , and call me mean .

Your jab at the company is on the expenses of all the female models they use. To answer your question, I have not made a public question about anyone unattractive because of their looks, this includes single persons as a total group. Do i find some more attractive than others? Sure. We all have preferences. Stick your "holier than.." the same place as your BS calling. I don't care. Don't like me telling you how your question can be perceived by women? Well... It's my perception as I told you. It won't change because you call me holy or call BS. I'm not buying in on manipulations like that. Take care. Bye.
i never said just "in a question" , or just online even . you are not only avoiding the question . but attempting to change it .
tell us . if you have ever thought of anyone as unattractive .. or commented on it . ever ?

No I'm not. I'm bringing it back to context. I'm NOT telling you that you cannot find anyone unattractive. Sorry, not buying in on cheap hits. Make your trix soemwhere else than with me. Over and out. Ciao.

have a good day .
ps .... "Make your trix soemwhere else than with me" ...

It's mean to women in general, to make a disparaging comment based on someone looks. Especially when we don't have the privy of seeing your looks. I assume everybody has the right to be any way they want to. But to the question of who is it being mean towards. It's mean toward all women.

Well, yes, but I wonder if their attraction was linked more to my youthful (and lustful) eyes than their actual beauty?
When I was a kid barber shops habitually had girly magazines to read while we were waiting. We loved those magazines which were innocently tame by today's standards, and the fact that all the interesting bits were air-brushed out didn't diminish that interest one whit.
I have noted over the years models are not always chosen because they are conventionally pretty, but because they are striking and unusual.
The idea is to sell potential customers on the concept, "THIS is what attractive is now. If you don't look like this, then you are NOT attractive and you need to buy our product so you will look more like this."
While I haven't seen the ads you speak of, I, too, have seen advertisments, magazine cover photos, and the like where I thought, "She doesn't strike me as particularly attractive. Why did they choose her as a model?"
These trends tend to be cyclical, so I'm sure you'll see Cover Girl models more to your liking again in the future.
(add #2 in there as well.)
