And I mean when it comes to someone's looks. Are gay men more superficial than others? I think if you are goodlooking, a happy gay life is almost guaranteed. Of course you can be a gay gay while being not so goodlooking, but it seems to me the chances are higher if you are handsome, because more men will want you. This might also correlate with professional, economical and intimate advancement, i. e. good looks open doors.
It is rather sad how discriminating gay men are to other gay men.

So, I’ve heard a lot of bad stuff about you, GermanGayGuy, but I’m gonna comment. Yes, absolutely looks matter for happiness more so in gay culture than straight. I’ve got overweight gay friends who never leave the house. I’m lucky in that I possess all the traditional features that qualify a man as handsome. (Square jawline, full head of hair, height/weight proportionate.) I walk into an event or a gay bar and I get immediately noticed. I do take it for granted, but I’m a very happy and content man, and partly it’s because of looks.

It's all relative. Good looks definitely open many doors in both the straight and gay world, but good looking people aren't exempt from tough times, depression, social anxiety, etc. just because they happen to be hot. Life is what you make of it.
About the only thing good looks guarantee is DL's forgiveness for any misdeed, no matter how heinous.

At 18 I realized I was very homely in gay terms and it was devastating. No dates, weekends or vacations with guys who I was excited to be with. Had I been straight I would have had better luck with women but they would have been interested in nesting and I would in any case have had no interest in that and they'd leave me soon enough.
Unfortunately for me nothing could have been better than to spend time with guys who I had been attracted to so life has been nothing more than putting one foot in front of the other. I guess I was always pretty shallow in that way but I couldn't and can't change my nature. God knows I've tried to find interest in other things but they ultimately don't matter and leave me feeling empty.

R1 Oh come on, surely you won't believe the lies you see here about me. But aren't you rather jaded and isn't it kind of sad to know that men are only to some degree interested in your looks?

R4 - Maybe you’re not all bad! But seriously, I’ll never be a member of MENSA so I know I must trade on my looks, and I don’t mind.

Imagine being male. Or German. What awful business.
