What are examples of said type of face?

Everything is grade "A" but her face. It's degrading and disrespectful to say so. Never call someone this.

The first time I’d heard the term was in reference to Michael Phelps. So I didn’t immediately make the connection that it’s mostly about women, but through context clues concluded that it meant Phelps has a nice body but a hideous mug.

"But her face", OP.

She's got a nice body... BUT HER face... *holds in the vomit*

R3, even though he’s a tremendous athlete and had the body to excel in his sport, I don’t find his body attractive.

I always thought it meant "fat" face - like lard ass means fat person or fat ass.

Me too, r10. Now that I know the phrase comes from Howard Stern, I will doubly not use it.

Everything “but-her” face is hot. It was a cruel bit, but girls & their boyfriends were clamoring to get on the show & get the prizes!

Does it have anything to do with complexion including greasy skin?

I always thought people like Kaley Cuoco, Matt Damon, Philip Seymour Hoffman, John Goodman — folks with sort of blurry melting looking undefined features (irrespective of body type) were bitter faces. Like not particularly ugly facially, but just kind of looking like their face came off a baking tray half-cooked. Slightly off putting but not totally ugly. If lit well and/or if a good actor, can be somewhat attractive or magnetic onscreen. But not facially attractive. Daniel Craig, Jeremy Renner, Andrew McCarthy, Anthony Michael Hall, Kevin Bacon. Bryce Dallas Howard, Brie Larson somewhat, Amy Adams. Among rockers when they were young Greg and Duane Allman, Van Morrison, Janis Joplin. Faces with ill-defined edges or bone structure, contrasted to very chiseled and distinct (non-melting looking) features.

"But her face" became "butterface".

It doesn't have to do with butter. It just means someone who has a nice body but their face is not exactly the greatest or kind of odd looking.

Like Adam Driver. Total butterface.

....What's that douche's name? Logan Paul. Logan Paul is the dictionary definition of butterface.

R33 Just finished watching clueless, and that is the description of a "total Monet". Not a butterface.

Butterface is SPECIFICALLY someone with a GREAT body and a BAD face.

by Anonymousreply 37May 31, 2019 2:57 AM

I'm under the impression it means a chubby type face. Plump cheeks, smallish nose, no real discerning chin. There's a chunky/muscly guy at where I work who has a bubble butt and butter face. He's seems kinda dim, but boy I'd sure love to pump my cock between his ass cheeks. His name is Ed.

Out here in flyover country they say "She's a 40/40." As in she's good looking from "40 feet away driving by at 40 MPH"

It means ugly person with nice body. It doesn't mean butter i.e. fat / melted. It became "butterface" because that's a "fast way" of saying "but her face".

Elder, here. We used to say “Nice legs...(Shame About Her Face)”. It was a punky pop song by The Monks that came out in the UK in 1979. No one could sing stuff like that now, even though rappers get away with murder, hoes and bitches.

On US Shameless (early seasons) they had a recurring character called 'Butterface,' which is how I first learned the term.

You know, I went to Google (it's obviously new to many people on here) typed in nothing but the word butterface and this is the first thing that came up:

a woman regarded as having a desirable body but an unattractive face. an unattractive face.

This "Google" is something you should all try. Maybe it will catch on-who can say?
