Like, is the balance necessary?

If all people would be attractive, would people stop havin' relations with their spouses, God forbid?

Would free will be removed?

In the olden days, bein' fat was optimum; d'ya think that will come back (like ties)?

ForI those who have insomnia (see threads here and there....I don't know how to make those words blueI; actually, I do), these are good question to ponder.

Random question: what would have been so bad if God created everyone handsome, gorgeous and attractive?

I differ, although being that people here are so kind, I don't feel the need to beg. 
Why does everybody have to be gorgeous/handsome? It's like saying that one can't be gay unless he chooses to, because otherwise, why would it be assur to act out on that?
Sometimes, Hashem makes things happen in this world that don't fit our reality. Some people are just ugly. Like Shvartza Wolf.

In a way.

I know a rabbi who's really ugly. He married someone who's really ugly. But they're beautiful to each other, perhaps.

What would it matter if fat comes back into style, for us nothing would change except the last word in this sentence -  Does this make me look thin?

If fat comes back into style, there is more (people) to lust after, includin' the (so-called) permitted lust.

Is it just me, or does anyone else have this sneaking feeling we're supposed to believe it is true, or at least wish it were true.

Maybe it's fair to say that everyone is attractive someone, some of the time. John Gray has a story about that.

I think it is both true and not true. At first glance, it is very hard to imagine that someone finds the people who are not attractive attractive. However, I think that for many people as they get to know someone and start to see their essence, they can even see beauty on the outside as well. I'm sure we all have people we met but we thought were very ugly in the beginning but then when you got to know them or know their smile you thought that they are all of a sudden much more beautiful.
