80. Do you remember the uh... enthusiasm around Palin?
Wed Jan 13, 2021, 01:49 PM
Jan 2021

For some reason, there are many people (men primarily) who are turned on by the idea of women posing with gun while wearing skimpy clothing, or in Palin's case, women with what could be termed objectively attractive features, who love guns.

I have not above the visual attraction of attractive women, but I have never understood the mixture of women and guns being a turn on. Then again, I have never understood the "sexiness" that many in gun culture find in the guns themselves. I may be a minority in this experience.

Melania may have been attractive at one point in her life. Obviously, she was a model so, someone saw attractiveness there. With her obvious surgical enhancements and her horrific personality and values, there is no attractiveness at all. In my own experience, you can meet standards of attractiveness that are widely held in society, but be such a horrible person, that the physical attractiveness is severely diminished. Melania would be an example of that for me.
