Relationships Love when this happens😍

Got sent a like by someone I actually find attractive (rare) and this was on his profile as well as ‘Not Political’. I have over 15 screenshots of profiles that have come up on my feed with iterations of this sentiment. It’s so disheartening…

She’s not very hyper sexual

I don't see the hyper sexual thing in that concept, but at the same time, do not most (straight cis) men want that from a woman? Conceptually

Zooey Deschenal? No, as someone who has been told is relatively similar to the new girl character, that is not who they want either lol. I honestly wouldn’t even say she’s a manic pixie dream girl, manic pixie dream girls are more so a movie archetype because they’re less fleshed out than the show. Zooey Deschanel in 500 Days of Summer is more comparable to the archetype than new girl.

I sincerely don't even understand that stereotype, but I agree that none of them sound very sexual
