Alternatively, birds use vibrant coloring to attract mates.

Devil's advocate:

Isn't the vast majority of examples where the male is the vibrant coloured one and the female is plain looking?

Time to dress in drag and do the hula.

Literally peacocks.

Got it.

So I've run into traffic and somehow I still don't have a girlfriend, I don't understand it.

Males do. Rarely females

But it does happen

Humans are just one of those exemptions

Also, unusual hair colors has been in use for thousands of years, with blue hair being the most prominent color used in places like Egypt and the English Isles.

Bleached dreads in Scandinavian cultures is another.

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 19 points 4 months ago

Lyes!

No, they're telling the truth.

[-] olutukko@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

I'm pretty sure he meant it as a joke since lye can be used to bleach hair

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 7 points 4 months ago

I was pretty sure they did too.

I think saying "English Isles" is a great way to piss off a lot of non-englidh people.

Scots right now re-reading the wording of the Act Of Union again just in case they missed a loophole.

[-] Silverseren@kbin.social 1 points 4 months ago

The question is whether English Isles or British Isles is worse. Hmm...

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 19 points 4 months ago

Love this. If anyone has look you don't like guess what they are not for you. Move on.

[-] mogoh@lemmy.ml 4 points 4 months ago

If someone isn't into you the way you're comfortable looking then you're not compatible with the person. It's not wrong to communicate what way of looking you enjoy in your partner, but if your partner isn't comfortable presenting that way and you're not attracted to the way they enjoy being, then it's not a match. Not everyone is meant for everyone. I wish people were able to present however they desire. There's also limitations jobs inflict upon people. Sad.

I love blue hair, but my fiancee is a chef so she doesn't dye it.
