yeah but usually when you're chatting about it to other people, the question "isn't X is hot?" has the implication that the asker is in fact attracted to X. they're not asking if you consider them conventionally attractive in the abstract sense, they're asking if you, like they, are attracted to X.

I agree with the secret OP, I remember that thread and the responses here just make me feel all the more abnormal because I don't, in fact, consider any celebrity attractive beyond "well they have a symmetrical face" or "that is a good haircut on them." it's possible to not engage with celebrity information very much, especially if you don't see many movies. maybe I'm broken. maybe I don't see real people often enough to care. maybe I'm just old and jaded. maybe people aren't as hot as they used to be. I used to think Ewan McGregor was pretty hot back in my youth. now I can't be arsed to give a shit.

OP of original comment

I used to feel like I was broken too. In my teens everyone would have calendars and posters of their favourite celebrities and I just couldn't find it in myself to care about these random people I'd never met and would never meet. Obviously as a teen I felt like a freak. Now I don't think it's a bad thing to not give a crap about random people living hundreds or thousands of miles away who are completely irrelevant to my life.

As for not finding them attractive (in the 'being attracted to them' sense), well apparently I just need more than how someone looks and that's just who I am. Eh.
