So if they gained or lost weight, or became scarred or lost their hair, would you still judge them on appearance?

You know that's quite a different thing.
Quote: Tim Walker @ August 5 2009, 4:25 PM BSTI think you'll find Bareback Mounting is the correct "comedy" title for that film.
Well, not a play on both words. Either; 'Bareback Mountain' or 'Brokeback Mounting'. The latter being the title for, say, a porn movie starring Dawn French & Ronnie Corbett.

Don't worry Loopey. It just show some of us are nicer than the average bear! 
Only joking guys. Loves ya.

What I'm saying is that for me to fall for someone I need to find them physically attractive in the first place (and that definition, 'physically attractive', can cover a lot of ground!). Once I'm invested in that person things change. If that person were to become disfigured through no fault of their own I'd like to think I'd be man enough to see past the physical. If however they stopped looking after themselves out of pure laziness, well, that's another matter...

Happily, in most cases it IS a different thing, but there are people who don't stay with their partners when their appearance changes - male and female alike.
I'm off to borrow some shiny things from Rube to get myself in the right mood for my evening out. Now where's that rainbow?
I do own some kickass shiny tops.....
My Bridesmaid dress can blind people. Must figure out what to do with that....

I agree. Making the most of what you have and looking after yourself is more important than whether you have big or small boobs, long legs or whichever attribute the media would have us think is essential to bag a partner.
Cocoa butter is my top tip.

Cocoa buttered boobs? Now we're talking!

I heard that was slang for a black man's semen.
I have coconut-flavoured semen.

Why, what do you use on yours?

Sorry, mate - I'm coconut shy.
