Being Gay

[Emiliano]

I wanted to say something about this. To me, beauty and looks are not equivalent. I know if a guy is good-looking, but that doesn't mean that he's beautiful. Beauty is something that is inside, in his person, in who he is. I've met a number of guys who were exceptionally beautiful to me, who wouldn't be considered beautiful in looks.

Neither am I saying that looks and beauty are completely separated (they are not). Just that beauty itself is not rooted in the external looks, it's an internal quality, and it enhances and reinterprets the looks a guy has.

I actually see beauty in more than one "state" of being male. The pure beauty of young guys faces, then the "hot" muscular state, and while women lose their attractiveness with age, it's mostly guys who can remain attractive until their 80s. Sure, not for everyone, but good looking men in their 80s? Yep, I think they do exist, even though I myself am exclusively into younger guys. In an objective way, like with women, I can safely say that I've seen hot guys way above 60.

Now I admit that there is a certain body type i am most attracted to, but im not that shallow lol...

I was thinking about art when I wrote about the male form, art as well as the men we see in other forms of media too. Like no one looks at Michelangelo's David and says, wow, what a great personality. Im all about a good personality and brains to match personally, but when we are talking about the idealized male form in comparison to the idealized female form, men are shown as having physical strength and muscle, women are shown as being delicate and not athletic.
