Generally an intelligent, heterosexual, socially concerned male with adequate amounts of male hormone but who's sadly been hit with the ugly stick at birth. They go through most of their adolescents and young adulthood severley tormented, discriminated and rejected by both sexes because of personal appearance flaws, but its the female rejection which would later demonize them forever. Then from about ages 25+ these somewhat psychologically damaged and bitter individuals begin to despise all human rights and wrongs especially the 'asthetic law' which places the ugly away from the goodlooking. The end result being a sexually frustrated, deprived lonely individual whos only en-route to eden and out of depression is to go on a ballistic rampage for nothing more than self gratifcation, revenge and power.

Either way, they just love to see you upset, and don't even feel guilty. Urban Dictionary
