Quote:while I once had a boyfriend who could never find another man goodlooking, even men widely acknowledged as heart throbs.

I'm like that POM. Wildly acknowledged heart throbs I find even more nauseating than the ordinary Joe and he's nauseating enough. I presume that's why the Heroic Man of today is often to be seen all kitted up as Action Man.
Men do admire other men though. It's nothing to do with their looks.
It
CAN be. I 've had the experience of watching a movie and thinking:
"jeeez, I 'd be better off if I looked half as good as that guy."
I 've always felt bad when I pass a mirror,
yet (
inconsistently therewith) when I get these feelings of personal esthetic dissatisfaction
when I 'm in a public place, I never see anyone with whose appearance I 'd like to trade mine.
