The thread was started by who shared the stunning side profile she captured of her man compared to the uncomplimentary snap he had taken of her.

And it seems she was not alone with dozens of other women coming forward with their photo comparisons as well as a few men.

From harsh lighting to dreadful angles these photos do little for the women in them compared to the Insta-ready pics they’ve snapped of their boyfriends.
