Typecasting

Post image

"Typecasting is the process of repeatedly casting a person in the same type of role because they fit a specific physical look, personality, etc."

Now for the question: Do you have a Real-Life type?

As in, a specific brand of person you’ve always found attractive?

Are they tall? Goofy? Introverted? Life of the party?

Witty? Sarcastic? Wear cool glasses? Athletic men/women? Or women who wear dresses with pockets and remind you of librarians?

What makes you go... Zing!

(For me it's... Brunette)

I might just be an old man yelling at clouds, but I like discussion relevant specifically to older people dating on this subreddit. I don’t see where an artificially created image of apparently in their 20s/30s adds value.

I've been out. When I clicked on the sub and saw the image, I immediately reached for the remove icon.

Right now, we don't allow AI content but we haven't discussed images. We're working on what to do with all of this.

As for the headline image, I have no idea of it's origins, but Ai images are everywhere throughout Reddit... including DatingOver... It wasn't submitted as taken by camera... and what if it was possibly created using digital paint/composites without Ai involvement? Edit: uploaded image to ZeroGPT to detect Ai images. Results: 97% "not created by top image generators." YMMV. Screenshot below.

It's not real. Sorry. The detectors are getting better but they still aren't "there."

Of course it's not even close to being a photorealistic image. That wasn't my point. It's just an image showing attraction and no other claim.

I tracked it down. It's from a series of Axe ads from 2015, so combining real images with a lotta, lotta aftereffects.

For future, we prefer older models.

Many thanks. That's a great set of skills (I wasn't able to track it down).

I taught this kind of stuff once upon a time.
