Well, to be honest, I'm not a big fan of men generally. When it comes to the battle of the sexes, I usually side with women. But yes, being less attractive is not a guarantee of quality. I've known some plug-ugly misogynist a-holes.
I was raised in a liberal feminist household with two university professor parents. Learning to take care of myself and see women as real people was assumed. I may come at this differently than most.
If you want good news, age can help. I've been married longer than you've been alive, and I'm finally starting to round into form. We mature slowly...
