You make perfect sense, and I definitely agree. How beautiful she is or is not should not come up a discussion about her performance. That would make me think someone's got a personal agenda.

We might use the word ugly in different ways. Ugly is harsh, and reserved for when I have additional negative feelings about the person, aside from looks (say, I find them painful on the eyes and their opinions to be offensive). Not finding someone pretty is a term I'm more likely to use if I respect the person, or don't have feelings either way. I think that's the best way I can describe. I'd use 'ugly' to help fuel hate. 'Not my type' is more neutral.

There's no real right for me to be mean about her (or anyone's) looks. It's just that when you dislike someone, you'll pick them apart any little way you can. They're less likely to get a pass on things you'd let slide for someone you did like. For me, personally, I think my hate is more from Twilight being everywhere, so it's hard to avoid (when I'm trying to stay respectfully away from it), and then the Snow White movie also starring her & looking so romance oriented (guess I should've expected it). Being the forefront of those kinda gives her the brunt of my already-in-place irritation.

Oh good. I'm glad we agree.

Ah, then we seem to use the word in a similar way.

Oh, I saw Snow White and the Huntsman. There's a little romance but I think it mostly had to do with beauty and duty. Wasn't that great but it was okay I guess. But you don't have to like her, that's fine. I just don't fully understand why it needs to be, well, expressed in such a bullying manner. I don't know.

Oh, really? One of the trailers I saw turned me off it. I may check it out next time I'm at a friend's house then (I was very interested in the wicked queen-- love my badass villians, and she seemed the type).

I think the hateful comments go back to the grade school days. Calling someone ugly instantly makes them worse than you. It doesn't, but you'll feel cooler. I usually stop at snickering behind my hand in some far off hallway. But I guess if you're louder or more obnoxious, you'll get more reaction or do more damage. Possibly become Queen Bee... Yeah. Not nice, but it happens :x

Ah, I can understand. Trailers are... interesting. The normally lie for all movies. If you want, I can spoil the romance bits of Snow White and the Huntsman and you can decide whether you want to see it or not. The rest of the movie was nice. It wasn't phenomenal but I enjoyed the ride.

Yeah, I think that's unfortunate.

Oh, man. Now that you mention it, I can remember a bunch of movies I walked out of feeling mislead from the trailer (sometimes a good thing, sometimes not so much). Thanks for the offer, but I think I will just go ahead and give it a shot!

Okay. Well, I hope you like it. If you don't, I'm sorry.
