That really bothered me.

Me as well. First is confused me and later it really annoyed me.

Seriously! It's almost like the dominant culture has white washed, I mean brainwashed everyone as to what beauty/handsomeness should look like.

I mean - maybe the majority or posters are just white and people are predispositioned to find their own race more attractive. I don’t think that’s racist. We can’t control who we are attracted to, and I don’t think it’s racist for someone to say they don’t find a particular person attractive. Perhaps as a society we should focus less on constantly tearing apart women’s appearances in general.

I don't know what you're talking about. I was slightly obsessed with Bridgeton season 2 and read just about everything I could find about it. I don't recall a single article that said Simone Ashley was not good looking enough for the male lead. Not one--the unanimous opinion across all the press was that she was gorgeous and they were a gorgeous couple.

You are just trying to stir up sh$%T.

People are talking about a mismatch in One Day because Ambika is downright not attractive. It has nothing to do with race.

Leo Woodall is adorable. Kind of reminds me of a young Leonardo DiCaprio. Possibly cuter. I enjoyed watching him in this role.

That said, paul mescal in normal people - a similar kind of role but a bit more intense - was completely mesmerizing.

Which is especially telling bc Simone Ashley is gorgeous in a pretty conventional way

Dex, on the other hand has some terrible angles where his eyes look all sunken and he gives us Macauley Culkin vibes. Plus he sleeps around. Even the most posh bimbo in his circles would hate that.

Ah! I thought I was the only one! Found him so cute until suddenly I saw this connection.

Because he’s white and blonde? You lost me there

Do you meet every year? Has he recently chucked all else and started working in a kaf slinging flat whites? If so, don’t ride a bike

Just binged. Did not read the book— maybe thinking I will now.

Ok, so I have had one of these encounters where I met someone and there was this instant weird connection where we were joking about being in a past life together. It can definitely happen and the guy was definitely better looking than me

Better than expected.

Freakish. That’s a bit much.
