Is it stupid to follow a hubber because you think they are attractive?
Most people I've seen on HP use avatars of photos other than themselves (at least I haven't really payed attention otherwise), but like wandererh said, you are just being human!
I can say I've only listened to a band before because the guys in it were quite nice to look at... didn't hurt that their music turned out to be super good, too, haha
No, I don't think so. Hopefully they are attractive and write interesting hubs. :-)
lovable, attractive, helpful, inspirational or useful... you might follower a hub or hubber for any reason you see fit. Point is, nothing is stupid till you yourself believe its stupid, doesn't really matter what everyone else thinks or says.
This not only applies to Hubs but everything in life
I love all the answers. I just wanted to see what everyone else said. I actually did follow someone because she is cute. I will read her hubs later, I promise.
i wouldn't call it stupid but to me it defeats the purpose of this site. but then again look at what looks have done for the kardashians.
It's not stupid and you're free to follow any hubber that you choose and for any reason that you feel suits you. Go for it!
Definition of stupidity varies from person to person. You are free to follow a hubber for no rhyme or reason. If you are choosing by the attractiveness of profile images, let me remind you that they may not belong to the person at all. Good luck!
It is somewhat like judging a book by its cover - we all do it. But do read the person's hubs - you might find even more you like.
Not at all as long as you give her a chance and read some of her work.
No one is called to be stupid for following someone attractive, after all that shows that you appreciate God's creation, but what matters is that: is it in harmony with the guidelines of where we are?
Why not try to visit to the FAQ or frequently ask question and see # 14 about; What are Followers? In the last part it says:
'' You should only follow people who you have a genuine interest in keeping up with. By following a Hubber you are saying that their activity on HubPages is noteworthy or interesting to you. Following excessively or indiscriminately may result in a low Hubber score."
Actually I made a poem about that maybe you want to take a look at it? http://hillymillydee.hubpages.com/hub/W … n-Hubpages
I hope that helps.

Do you feel it's just plain rude for a hubber not to follow you back?

What makes you choose to follow another hubber?I have come across quite a few members on here who are following hundreds of other hubbers. I can only speak for myself, but I barely have enough time to write my own hubs, let alone time to read every hub that is published by all of the people that I...

When a hubber starts following you, do you follow them back?

Is it Polite to Follow a Hubber That is Following You?Out of courtesy, I follow any Hubber that follows me, but not all Hubbers seem to live by this rule. What do you think?

My feed is full of "shares" by a Hubber. HP recommends we do not share our own Hubs too frequently, why can't that apply to multiple sharings by the same Hubber for other Hubs. I don't think they can possibly read all those Hubs, I think it's done for other reasons.
