How about "talented girl"?


Debbie Downer. As luck would have it I'm not a eunuch. Which I'm thankful for when watching a talented and attractive woman sing a very pleasant song.

seriously?

You don't believe that socialization has something to do with how we behave?

>> ^deathcow:

things will never change unless the behavior is removed from human dna

Bow wow, dear deathcow, bow wow.

That makes sense if you read the link of @Angua1. It's really great, once you get past the opening -- if you decide to explore it, I recommend starting with this sentence, partway down:

A man has the privilege of walking past a group of strange women without worrying about being catcalled, or leered at, or having sexual suggestions tossed at him.

There follows a parable that I found pretty dang compelling. And pretty funny, given that you live in Alaska and it "stars" a Husky dog.

And yes, I agree with you about biological "imperatives" -- study after study have proven that men are visual animals. To argue with that is profoundly idiotic, indeed jousting at windmills. I don't think that is the point though. I think all this is being asked for is an "Oh. I didn't think about it that way. Huh."

>> ^deathcow:

oh cry me a friggin river... she's cute, get over it... we're a fucking ocean of animals, we appreciate a pretty face... so go fight your DNA instincts whilest pissing into the wind and jousting at some windmills

How about talented woman? (Sorry, couldn't resist -- I still mourn that grown women are called girls.)

Having said that, I must say that I rather liked the "cute" label. I know, I know, call me inconsistent. But when vid after vid after vid fawn over gorgeous women, with long and lingering camera shots over body parts, it gets pretty oppressive feeling if you are just ... normal. So this young woman who is healthy and talented and charming gets a label of "cute"? It was a relief.

And yeah, it sucks, too.

>> ^Opus_Moderandi:

she also happens to be cute. What is so wrong with noticing that? How does it cheapen an otherwise excellent performance by calling the performer "cute" (when they actually happen to be "cute")?


Trying to argue the merits of the title just reinforces the male internet user stereotype of a loser with the self esteem of a hollowed out coconut. Stop it!

I couldn't agree more. I fucking cringe every time I see a video title beginning with "cute girl". What the hell does the person's gender, let alone their physical appearance, have ANYTHING to do with the content of the video. You don't see that giant spider video, currently at #3, titled "tall guy with big hands has massive spider". Why? Because it's a dude. If it was a girl, it'd be "OMG! Hot girl has balls of steel".

I disagree. Yes, she is talented and anyone that watches the video will see/hear that. But, she also happens to be cute. What is so wrong with noticing that? How does it cheapen an otherwise excellent performance by calling the performer "cute" (when they actually happen to be "cute")?
