You mean in your sig, right?   Pinkie Pie does indeed deserve a better ending!!!

I found out that my pic has lightning and color issues... My hair is a little brighter. My obsession of background distracted me from realizing that!
Still I'm badass!

I forgot to say before, Celrath and Dominus have interesting faces.

It is interesting to see what people look like IRL, though. They rarely ever look like what I've built them up in my mind to be.

Maybe we should have a contest or something!

....I'm bored that's why.

I thought people would have got bored of all the stroking by now.

People never get tired of being told how pretty they are. And they think if they characterize themselves as "okay looking" we'll be fooled into thinking that they're humble, or unaware of their own appeal. We're not fooled, we know when people just want to be told that they're pretty. Some people are only too happy to oblige such obvious fishing, so whatever. Both parties get what they want, I s'pose. 

I hate to sound like a jackass, but I know I'm pretty. Why? Because I'm often told that I am and I can see with my own eyes. It's not anything to do with ego or vanity. It's not about me thinking I am better than anyone else, either. It's also worth noting that for a dozen people who find me attractive, there will be a dozen who do not.

I'd like to think that people are able to judge for themselves whether they are attactive or not - but if you don't consider yourself to be attractive, there will be plenty of people out there who think you are an absolute dish. You just have to find them. 

Yeah, it's all relative. I think I'm attractive for a woman my age, but I also think that and five dollars will get me a cup of coffee at Starbucks. Our worth as women shouldn't be tied to our appearance, especially our self-assessment of our worth. If men want to objectify us, that's fine, whatever, knock yourselves out. But we need to stop thinking it means more than it does. Women need to stop thinking that a man being willing to have sex with you is some kind of huge compliment. Here's the thing: It's really not that difficult to get a man to have sex with you. As a woman you really just have to show up with a vagina and a willingness to say "yes", and they're up for it. Not all of them, surely, some of them have standards, but guys of the average age you're likely to find on the BSN, let's just say that "fish in a barrel" is not an altogether inappropriate metaphor.

At least you acknowledge it. I am not saying that you're a jackass or even sound like one to me personally, but for many people will always see you and others who think like you as one, though I am sure you already know that.  Whether one should care about those people or not is up to the person in question.

I know a lot of people will never be able to see themselves as attractive, myself included, but rather as tolerable.

Imo, it's better to be straight about the opinion you have about yourself, rather fake being humble and unaware.

Yo Face is good, but you need a little "beard modification" and more hair.

So just to summarize, this went from:
(1)Do people find you attractive
(2)I feel sad about my face
(3)Cheer up about your face
(4)Rate my face
(5)I feel sad about my face
(6)Cheer up about your face

I imagine this is what the inside of Woody Allen's head has sounded like his entire life.

@Sian:

The people I care about are the only ones that matter in regards to their opinion of my attractiveness. I know they like me, I know I like me and that's what counts. To me.

As for the other points you make? I completely agree. It isn't difficult to get a guy to sleep with anyone - I've seen it for myself when I've been out to the club (or should I say "meat market"?!) on a Friday night.

Some men have standards and what someone with a bit of class; some want someone unconventionally pretty; some want their version of a porn star; some like a girl-next-door. Some want a beautiful model that they can show off, but will still chat up the skanks in the club when they are out with the boys.

I used to dress up in high heels and sexy clothes all the time because one of my ex's liked that. I used to believe that it's what would keep him with me, but even when I was doing all I could, he still cheated on me - and with someone who was the complete opposite of what he had moulded me into.

The most important thing is that you are YOU and do things for YOU. Not for anyone else. Be happy in your own skin.

Preach it, sistuh.

You forgot "be happy with your face (and what you are)" and "male sexual preferences (or lack thereof)."  You know, the usual.

Woody Allen is a goddamn baws. 

I agree, but he has made a career capitalizing on his neuroses and his attempts to silence them. Which always turns out to be hilarious.

I just want these bra sizes to be backed up with pics.

I thought I would check this thread out just to see what it has turned into lol. What you have written is completely true and I hope the future works out for you and anyone else in someway and your advice at the end is something many people forget.

Left out of what? Cathartic emotional masturbation? Nah, I rate my own face and like I said on the second or first page, I'm fine.

I think that falls under "cheer up about your face" and "feel sad about my face."

Yesterday I blew a kiss to myself because my eyebrows are attractive.

[Tiax Rules All]

Not especially... I have red hair. Generally not "attractive" on males

Generalising is so much fun. It's my favourite kind of ising.
