I'm not even sure I understand what you're trying to say.
Sorry! said:Doesn't that beg the question?
Aren't they both 1 person?yyttr2 said:See the difference xD ..)

Those are some terrible examples to illustrate your point.See the difference xD (everyone has there own idea of cute and hot though..)

Romeo and Juliet too, except she transformed into a hot guy. It's complicated and it didn't work out well.Math Is Hard said:Wasn't this one of the themes in Grease (and more recently, Glee)? The "cute" girl transformed into the "hot" girl to secure the affections of her beloved.

zoobyshoe said:I don't think it's begging the question yet. It would become begging the question if someone answered something like "Men prefer hot girls over cute ones because hot girls are generally preferable, whereas cute girls are merely cute." In other words, to "beg the question" you have to answer the question by asserting the assumptions of the question.
BobG said:I think this was the theme of Shrek, too, where Fiona turned into a hot chick every night and back into a cute chick every day.

I'm not completely certain myself, but I've googled it and read about 5 different sites. A couple of them characterize it as a form of circular argument, and it seems, from all 5 sites, that in order to constitute "begging the question" you need both an unproven assumption and a conclusion based on that assumption. The OP has only unproven assumptions. So, I don't think it's begging the question yet, and won't be until someone offers a conclusion arising from acceptance of the unproven assumptions. My impression is that, to be properly labeled as "begging the question" it's acceptable for the conclusion to be completely circular ("because hot girls are preferable") or not so circular ("because hot girls give the impression they'd be more exiting in bed").Sorry! said:I think that is: circulus in probando (circular arguement).
What I meant by begging the question is that the OP has assumed that 'most guys prefer "hot" girls over "cute" girls.' I'm not sure if that's what begging the question means though.
Mary Ann always wins because she was authentically cute while Ginger was always a hollow caricature of a hot woman.Vanadium 50 said:This is an age old discussion: Ginger or Mary Ann?

I prefer 'cute' primarily and 'hot' secondarily.

GeorginaS said:Thank you for the translations. I guess I don't speak Current Young Male. Or something.
MIH, I always resented that theme from Grease, although I was convinced it was true when I saw the movie when I was a teenager.
Um, so, okay, are we debating a supposed universal truth, then?
P.S. Post #4 you were entirely unhelpful.
BobG said:Definitely Mary Ann!
She's hot!
zoobyshoe said:She's totally hot. Which should confuse Georgina.
rolerbe said:Similar to the difference in girl-speak between 'Cute' and 'Handsome'. I never got that distinction either.
zoobyshoe said:She's totally hot. Which should confuse Georgina. But the fact is "hot" can be used to describe any sexually attractive girl. A girl's hotness may only have to be distinguished as the cute variety when she's being compared to a girl whose hotness is of the hot variety.
lisab said:"Cute" describes a male who is nice looking but not a mature man yet.
TheStatutoryApe said:You could probably better describe it as "innocent" versus... "not so innocent" ("slutty" probably carries too much of a negative connotation). At least I think this describes better what is going on in the average male's mind.
The OP seems to think that men prefer the "not so innocent" type. I think that this is more a matter of them broadcasting a more 'sexual' (in men's minds) message than their counterparts. They tend to turn more heads with a short skirt, boldness, aggressiveness, ect. "Innocent" tends to be more shy, demure, coy, ect. They tend to be less obvious and many men may feel they are not as approachable so they tend to receive less direct attention. Its a stereotype that you are supposed to be more gentle with "innocent" women and more aggressive with "not so innocent" women. I think this is probably why it may seem that "hot" women get more attention.
