When people say that someone looks average, what do they mean? What does the average man or average woman even look like? (lemmygrad.ml)

This would be of course regional and specific to the person saying it. Some examples of averages: if someone is in the middle range of weight, so not skinny nor fat they would be average. If this person / these people are in China, black/dark hair color would be average. If this average person has natural red hair, they would only be average in the annual ginger meetup as being a ginger is rare everywhere.

If you need a picture of this for your area, this is very Googleable. Here is a example average looking women. https://images.app.goo.gl/wFzkRwFjM1WnkfQt8

For some reason, I found all of these attractive. I thought that average meant unattractive

Na. Average isn't bad. It also isn't exceptionally good, it's simple in the middle. I mean people could say it meanly to make themselves feel better because the are "above average", but fuck them.
