This is a pretty bad one. The problems with the current name are threefold:

1. The trope name is taken from a Willie Nelson song, but not everyone is going to be familiar with it. 2. In the lyrics "ten with a two" refers more to the morning after than the initial encounter itself. 3. This phenomenon has a much more common designation in "beer goggles".

The description is biased toward drunk men being attracted to ugly women, but honestly I think this would change if more people looked at the article. It's got very few wicks.

My proposal is simply to open a crowner for a new name. "Beer Goggles" is one option. We could also go with something descriptive like "Alcohol Induced Attraction". By all means, let's have a trope name that actually says what the trope is about.
