I've done painting of live models who are objectively attractive to have people (men I'm sure) say nasty things about the model.

Like attractive in real life an attractive in TV/Internet are different and a 10 on person is a 4 on the Internet or whatever.

This is a great illustration of that problem.

    I think anyone who's seen a decent amount of celebrities in person can attest to this. People who look attractive in 2D do look attractive irl, but in an uncanny way? Less of a sexy - I want to date this person - attraction and more of a confused - how is it possible to look like this - admiration.
