mm, you're sorta getting it - what I meant was that not everyone's pretty or complies with the norm of society. if a series of mine ever gets developed into a movie (it'd be exciting, although I'm not sure if it's possible due to one story having a character with prosthetics) I'd want it to not be limited to the "famous" actors - it'd be fun, but my characters aren't the norm that society pursues.

the norms of society always imply that girls have to be pretty and boys have to be handsome to be loved. I enjoy pretty girls (as I'm gay and sometimes that's attractive to me) and there are people who but I'm not going to change myself or my writing just to be loved by society. I want my characters to fit in the reality of society - that we're all different in our own way, and we shouldn't be shamed for it.
