Is saying a woman is a 'butterface' necessarily an insult?

While I can understand this rationale, since I don't like j.lo's face, but christ is Rihanna gorgeous with a lackluster body.

Wait what...

Looks fine to me.
 
I think butterface is really only something you use amongst yer bros or whatever when you're talkin' women (which is always. I mean, come on guys.) Like, there was this one girl at my old job who had a crazy large rack and the rest of her body was pretty nice too, but her face (ha ha ah) was not.
 
That's Rihanna? Could have sworn she had a much nicer face than that. Also, she looks 12 in that shot.

I believe it is one of her earlier album covers, so she might have still been a teenager when it came out. Not 12, but a good bit younger than she is now.

I think she is pretty, but that is not a good picture of her.
 
It is an insult. If the theory about how men are visually-oriented is true then it'd mean that we tend to gravitate towards someone with good-looks. Saying someone is a butterface, especially a woman is basically saying "Unfortunately, her face is not high on my hot list".
 
Next time you see a girl who's a butterface by your definition, call her that and explain how it just means she has an incredible body. It should go over fine. :p
 
Dat jiggle. I never thought Rihanna was bad looking at all. Exotic, at least. Kesha on the other hand looks a bit... um...

Ke$ha works hard to put on a look that says I sleep in every other pop stars trailers, steal their discards and don't shower for weeks. If you see her without the awful styling she does including the makeup she actually doesn't look bad.

Just searched for her without the get up. You're right. She's not bad at all without all that crap on.
 
I searched for Oezil (middle) and found this trifecta. Ramos (right) isn't that bad though.

ozil has an interesting face, i wouldn't call it ugly. he reminds me of arya from game of thrones, who i think is pretty, not in a traditional way.
 
Big honking noses aren't really that much of a turnoff. In fact most of the guys I've had things for were not small in the nose department among other things.
