When a person has qualities that would normally be arousing or alluring (
good looks, money,
expensive car, flashy job), but has other qualities, such as a distasteful
personality or an appearance that doesn't quite match their photos posted online, that make him or her sexually repellent.
Jake was totally hot
on paper - he's an attorney at a big law firm, drives a new BMW
convertible, is tall, and in his profile online, looked really cute, with dark, wavy hair. But when I met him in person, his hair had mostly fallen out, and all he could talk about was his psycho ex-girlfriend. Hot
on paper, not hot in person!
