No need for a conspiracy theory—it’s called systemic bias. Media reflects societal preferences, which are shaped by historical power structures, and they reinforce each other. But sure, imagine the boardroom scene if it helps you grasp the concept. Whippoorwill and harlow 1 1

It is an understandably common misconception that our ideas of beauty come from cultural influences such as movies and magazines. Most of us believe that we are “taught” what is beautiful based on the images presented to us throughout our life. If this were true, that would mean that what defines attractiveness would differ based on culture and era. More important are simple scientific fundamentals like symmetry, the extent to which one half of an object is the same as the other half. Our faces are not exactly the same on both halves. Symmetry is one of those qualities that consistently rates as desirable across cultures. Media did not teach us that. + Vegas_Millennial 1

Symmetry is one of those qualities that consistently rates as desirable across cultures. Media did not teach us that. Interesting theory, but it’s not the full picture. Symmetry may play a role in universal attractiveness, but cultural ideals absolutely influence what is desirable at any given time. If beauty were purely biological, standards wouldn’t shift so drastically—even within the gay community. Think Tom of Finland’s hyper-masculine fantasy men of the 70s, the lean and androgynous twink aesthetic of the early 2000s, or today’s gym-sculpted internet influencers. Media amplifies and reinforces these trends, creating a feedback loop of aspiration. Biology sets the baseline, but culture shapes the narrative. Whippoorwill and Strafe13 1 1

Or Goodness forbid... You wouldn't meet a man not attracted to an entire sex! (Not attracted to women, not attracted to men, etc.). I didn't need to see gays portrayed in the media to know I was attracted to men and not attracted to women. There are several body types AND attitudes of men I don't find attractive.... And I didn't need media to tell me who IS an asshole, or who HAS an attractive one. 😜 I determined that on my own. I will concede that certain cultures, regions, and professions have different practices or skill sets in the bedroom, and that may influence who I find attractive in the future. For example, I've not met a flight attendant yet who has failed to be outstanding in bed. It must be their service culture.

viewing ownly Posted January 16 Posted January 16 I had a lesbian supervisor tell me that if the actor who portrayed Aquaman were to come in to the office shirtless, she would jump at the opportunity to be "bi for a moment". The power of attraction! The OP is asking the unanswerable. What floats my boat can repel others. I personally find men in love with themselves to be among the most attractive. In the Social Media age, there's more than ever. + Vegas_Millennial 1

No one said “cultural influences don’t matter.” Cultural influences are just that - influences, not primary causes. + Vegas_Millennial 1

What a porn actor does on a screen doesn’t necessarily translate to what they do as a provider or their home life. Not saying he doesn’t bottom for select clients but it’s definitely not his initial stance. I got the impression that once he gets comfortable with a client he may be willing to do more. His original ad copy kind of reflected that. He used have a blurb about being shy at first and being more outgoing when you got to know him. Edited January 16 by big-n-tall Muscleking 1

I just have never seen him top in any of his videos so a little strange that he would be only top for escort.. I would assume most his clients would want to fuck him builder boy 1
