All of them are attractive, it's just a lot of people think attractive = conventionally attractive.

I think the bottom is probably what my transition will look like, except more kitty :3
Pero me gusta La Criatura. ¡Es graciosa!
The artist is actually so cute though
Our self image has been destroyed by social media under capitalism.
Self image has been destroyed by both social and classic media under any regime - I'm pre-social media and my self image was just as bad. But yeah, I agree that social media carry the torch now.
Hey Beep, are you Azul? because if so i like your art!
No bro.
I just liked the comic, so I shared it here.
aww i got banned from reddit for ~~posting luigis~~ the old ultraviolence. if you are on reddit would you tell azul i like her art?
i think it was this one that finally did it for me
I think this person's point was lost when they drew the creatures to be very cute as well.
Sarah's Scribbles is one of the better comics for drawing the author's self as pretty cute in most comics but knowing how to draw herself as an ugly goblin when the comic is making a point about insecurity or embarrassment around physical appearance.
That comic is basically the gold standard for how to convey those ideas in an otherwise cute art style.
The artist draws themself and they're allowed to judge their own looks however they want,
Even if we would disagree with them.
You're missing the point the comment was making
So, you became cute AND spanish?
Been to Spain and I thought most young pp were good looking
my dude, once i got old enough that young (20s) people were not interested in me i noticed how they were all good looking, i just was too picky.
I don't understand. Are the characters in the bottom frame supposed to look unattractive or undesirable in any way? Is that so for both or just the one on the left? If so, well, I don't see it.
It's a DLSS 5 meme.
I think they just turned Spanish for some reason.
So it's trans for translated?
It's the old "media shows you an objectively attractive character then attempts to gaslight you into thinking they're some kind of rotten gremlinesque undesirable" trope.
Ready Player One.
Trans folks are really bad at being unattractive!
Thank the gods I'm in the top half. I'm also in the bottom half, but we focus on me being in the top half.
I want to marry la creatura.
If I'm not confusing it with another comic they are already married
I mean in general. I feel like attractive people live in a reality so different from mine that we could never relate well enough to be more than acquaintances.
Gotcha, that makes sense I guess but I wouldn't generalise it that far
Is this a blazer hoodie?
It's "criatura" If you are trying to write it in Spanish
La Real academia española lists "creatura" as a synonym of criatura
It's not synonym, cult means that the "correct" way to write it is "criatura". Is in the index because the RAE acknowledge that "creatuta" exists as a word.
cult. just means "creatura" is closer to Latin creatūra. Also, as far as I know, the RAE doesn't list any misspellings. I'd take them acknowledging it exists as a word to be enough for it to count as "proper" Spanish.
I didn't say is a misspelling. There's a reason why the RAE page have all the definitions and synonyms in the "criatura" page (that dosen't include "creatura") while "creatura" only links to the correct spelling "criatura".
