Interesting detail in the news story "Scott Ruffalo, a married hairdresser"
― Sandbox Jesse, Tuesday, 27 December 2011 17:24 (twelve years ago) link
fwiw I hadn't really thought about it before but the patronizing undertones of "unthreatening" are pretty obvious
Like the patronizing tone of this response.

maybe you should post photos of yourself so we can see if we think you are threatening or not

Sorry I'm on a train across Exmoor or Dartmoor + my connection keeps cutting out. Want to see these photos but they won't d/l!

Neither new or a concern to me. I am with the truth, even if I have to be a little outrageous in expressing it.
― illegal crew member (C.K. Dexter Holland), Tuesday, 27 December 2011 17:29 (twelve years ago) link
And I am v unthreatening as is well known
In the brother pic Ruffalo is the one on the left? He has v kissable lips.

Yes. Scott Ruffalo was really cute. How awful is it that he had a Russian roulette compulsion?!

who I just learned died playing Russian Roulette :(
I dug into this a little more, and the coroner was skeptical that Russian Roulette was to blame.

Oh, I can see that. I thought it was really odd that he would have shot himself in the back of the head.
― Sandbox Jesse, Tuesday, 27 December 2011 17:32 (twelve years ago) link
lemme mansplain it for ya:
he's non-threatening, I guess, while retaining enough macho not to embarrass the opiner
you are making a number of presumptions about what other people find attractive in Ruffalo. At the most basic level you are presuming to speak for them (which is - wait for it - patronizing!), and then you are also presuming that they hold a specific set of aesthetic standards (macho = bad/embarassing, a scale of attraction that is based on fear/weakness, etc.)
xp

It does if you think about it. See? Patronizing. Like anyone who tells anyone else that they're wrong on a subjective matter (including the meaning of a word, or the attractiveness of an individual).

Guesses, not presumptions. Which was the expressly-stated point.
hen you are also presuming that they hold a specific set of aesthetic standards (macho = bad/embarassing, a scale of attraction that is based on fear/weakness, etc.)
You actually have the equation backwards, and I don't even know what the last clause is supposed to mean.

saw The Girl w/ the Dragon Tattoo, reminded of Zodiac because of subject + Fincher, thought Ruffalo would've been better than D. Craig in lead male role but I guess not a very convincing Swede.

The truuuuuth, man, the truuuuuuuth!
The truth is: Ruffaloes are all about the lips, huh?

I can completely see that that mouth would be a lot more sensual in motion, rather than just in photos where he's all teeth.

Guesses, not presumptions.
distinction without a difference here
I don't even know what the last clause is supposed to mean.
well, consider why someone's THREAT LEVEL would even factor into attractiveness, and what the implications of that are. That attraction is based on how likely someone is to hurt you, either physically or otherwise - are you afraid of them, are they stronger/more powerful than you, do they make you feel safe. Do you see how maybe possibly classic MAN STRONG/WOMAN WEAK gender stereotypes are bound up in this.
