I know there are a lot of neighborhoods where teens have a lot of casual sex out of boredom, but usually they sort of know what's going on, unless very drunk or stoned.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I really get the impression he's very good at getting chicks into bed (or the back seat, whatever) and has never given much thought to the idea of elongating a courtship.
Have I met teenaged boys who have had a lot of sex and are like that? Absolutely.

Let's face it, probably not all that hard to skip the pesky intermediate steps between "hi" and "got a cigarette?" when you look like Ryan.

Maybe the actor is playing Ryan as so uncomfortable in the O.C. that he's not acting the way he usually does, which would make it seem more likely that women just constantly fling themselves at him. He just doesn't seem to have that sort of automatic chemistry, like the kind JM put in Spike, or MR in Lex.

I would consider "Hi" to be a complete waste of time.

Uhuh. Sure.
In opposite land!
Okay, not as finessed and masterful as those two, but DAMN.

I think he's good with the sex, and the getting of it. And not so great with the dating aspect.
There are plenty of people who are good at being able to get sex and bad at being able to negotiate dating. God knows I was one in high school and college.
So not that shocking to me.
weird xpost.

Okay. To me Ryan is just not that attractive. Very nice body, but huge nose and teeny squinty eyes like Josh Hartnett. And he's all sort of uni-colored, like a butterscotch blob of boy. Yeah, yeah, I know, I'm a freak. I mean, I don't even consider Clay Aiken to be handsome either.

Wait, so now you're not only insulting Ryan, you're insulting my boycrush Josh Hartnett?? I don't think I can know you any more, Madrigal.

No! You're not. I didn't/don't (still undecided-ish) find him attractive either. And yet I looooove him. It's crazy. The ferris wheel scene from last week's ep really went a long way toward giving me the Ryan love. But he is in no way someone I would naturally find attractive. Whereas skinny tall curly dark haired boys are the only kind I have ever found attractive. (Yes. I love the Seth though I realize he can never be mine.)

Wow. I'm with you on the body and the schnozz (but as a devotee of Peter Wingfield, that's nothing), but the only person on the cast with bigger eyes is Mischa. Or maybe it's a proportion thing, and the rest of him is so teeny it throws me off.
