Poll: Glasses. Sexy? Not Sexy?

[Broady Brio]

A lot of the time, I will have to disagree with you. I mean sometimes, it works, but for me a lot of the time, it doesn't.

Oh those who pay like £250 on quite literally, pieces of plastic with a brand name on them? Go away.

Fake/lenseless glasses are the biggest turn off ever. You may as well be wearing a 'I'm a ****' shirt.
I think (prescription) glasses tend to look better on women, especially cute little reading glasses. Some men look nice with glasses, especially thick rimmed ones.
Jam jar bottom glasses turn me right off. My ex had them and he looked like a pedo >_>
i prefer no glasses. They're not unattractive though.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Err depends really. I mean sometime they can pull it off althought I guess the glasses frame matter or sometime it has no effect at all.

 

[Evilsanta]

It really depnds who is wearing them and what kind of glasses.

But then again I am a sucker for girls in glasses.

 

[Gottesstrafe]

I'm a guy and I reckon petite and/or thin-framed glasses can look beautiful on guys and girls. Those giant glasses usually now associated with hipsters I really can't stand, but then mostly they're done for the image as opposed to actually needing them. Also, they look stupid.

Agreed. With the exception of sunglasses, when I see those huge frames or coke bottle glasses it thoroughly detracts the appeal of someone's face for me. Half the time they're nightmarishly gaudy and clash with the natural contours of the human face, other times they tend to give the wearer insect like qualities.

Now, I'm not advocating for some sort of final solution against the mongrel thick frames so that the über augengläser thin-frames may take its rightful place at the forefront of eye apparel, but I tend to find that thinner frames/smaller glasses more pleasingly accentuate the curves of the face. Then again, most google searches of "sexy glasses" seem to have them either sliding down the nose or in the process of being taken off...

But what do I know? I'm just a simple velociraptor typing away on a laptop.

 

[Palademon]

Depends on the person. If they're cute they probably look nice with glasses to me.

I for example, who wears glasses almost constantly even though I can see mostly fine and just can't be assed to alternate, look much better without glasses as it reveals how nice my eyes are.

 

[Sunrider]

Don't like the alternatives on this poll. I think glasses can be sexy, but it's of course not always the case. The "Yes" answer seems to somewhat ignore that, and the "No" answer seems to go along the lines of "BURN THE WITCHES".
In any case, it can be really cute. It can also mess up your looks. You should see me wearing mine. *shrugs* Luckily I don't need them more than for a small amount of activities.

 

[Xenowolf]

I find that ones with small frames enhance a girl's attractiveness about 90% of the time. Now, large frames on the other hand....

 

[phyrexian]

I have a thing for specs, but not the fake ones people wear to appear "nerdy" because those are pretentious as hell. But not everyone suits glasses, and not all frames are flattering.

Also: glad I'm not the only velociraptor here.

 

[Relish in Chaos]

It entirely depends on the glasses and the girl. But I don?t mind either way.

To use an example, there?s a girl I know from school, for whom my crush comes and goes every now and then. She's very pretty, especially so when she wears her glasses. And sometimes she wears a miniskirt, which just completes the image.

 

[Deadyawn]

I'm a Velociraptor because sometimes they look good and sometimes they don't. Generally I find that they don't alter my opinion drastically one way or the other.

 

[dekcahw]

Your eyes are a weakness, I prefer those who lack that weakness.

 

[Fappy]

Extremely sexy. Its actually in my profile on this site >.>

 

[Sightless Wisdom]

I like how the second most popular poll answer is "I'm a velociraptor". I would have answered with I'm a guy, and I think they can be sexy, if the right frames are on the right person. It's really depends on the shape of the frames and the hairstyle and eyes, etc. But sometimes for sure.

 

[Carbonyl]

I am a girl, and I think my glasses make me look sexy.
My boyfriend wears glasses, and I think it makes him look sexy.
I feel like glasses are aesthetically appealing on a lot of people.

 

[TilMorrow]

I'm a Velociraptor, therefore monocle.

/silliness

In all truthfulness, it depends... on the glasses, face and facial structure.

 

[imnot]

I'm a guy and think they are on gir-
*sees 'I a ma velociraptor'*
OH LAWD!
Disregard sensible answers, aqquire dinosaurs!

Lemme break this shit down right here

1. Sexy girl:
- with glasses: sexy
- without glasses: sexy

2. Not sexy girl:
- with glasses: not sexy
- without glasses: not sexy

Well, even with an attractive girl, it depends on the type of glasses and how it looks on her. But yes, it can somewhat enhance their sexiness to some people, probably due to the whole sexy schoolgirl/sexy librarian/sexy nerd fetish.

But you're kinda right with the unattractive girl part. Double standards? Maybe. They're damn near the only standards we have, and that's just how the world screws you over like that.
