To the author of the original post that was an interesting read!

I have to disagree with the title though, people are responsable for their own self esteem and it's extremely silly to think that some model somewhere who never had any interaction with can be responsable for your insecurities. As you think so you shall be. I agree with the rest though completely! I think guys do indeed feels more and more the weight of not "measuring up" (if they are insecure). I think it's unfortunate in a way that we choose in part based on physical attraction, I know there are a lot of shorter or physically not attractive (or in the parlance of science: sub optional reproductive specimens) but they are kind hearted and decent human beings.

Lots of men have lots of expection in part due to the media, in what they expect from a women.Some of them probably feel as if they are not quite up to snuff genetically speaking for the women they secretly wished they have. . Ignoring women on their "level" is not smart though and only cause these dejected men feel more miserable. People do indeed match based on their "level" so to speak of physical desirability it's evolution. Personally I must admit reluctantly I've always been with objectively extremely good looking men, some who even model (not the androgynous effeminate kind though but the type who have classical "rugged" handsome look...hot!)
