This post was deleted for the following reason: It's ok to post about this article but the thread will go better with a different framing that (a) doesn't reproduce a bunch of his gross remarks right up top and (b) doesn't seem like it's offering "just how unattractive are different women" up as a thing to debate - contact us about reframing? -- LobsterMitten
