Why Do You Have To Be Drop Dead Gorgeous?
Posted: 11/19/2004 7:46:17 PM
Just a quick question… Why do people today spend so much time fusing about what you look like? I mean it is good to take care of yourself but appearance seems more important these days then who you are on the inside. Why is that? Isn’t the person within more significant then the person on the outside?

Sweet,

Your looks do not suck, your actually a very beautiful person. And personality does count because it is who you are that a person will fall in love with. Continue being a great person and great guy will fall head over heels for you.

OMg i so hear you on this sweet
I am your typical tomboy i own like four pairs of shoes, my jeans are tattered and torn, i wear tshirts and sweatshirts that show no part of my figure off, in fact the best i look is in the pics here online...
but the other thing is i dont want to get all dolled up for a guy and then have him realize the next day that im a bum who loves sweats.
be you and you will find a man who loves that you....
I know its hard, and you see all these skinny, short skirt wearing, fake (or real) blonde hair b*tches out there getting all the a** in the world, but thats all they are getting trust me i was a bartender i saw that sh*t everyday....
us non girlie girls do get our man, it just takes time,

Hmm, I don't know if a person has to be drop dead gorgeous but it does appear that a lot of people have unrealistic hopes or expectations.
Also, everyone likes beautiful/ attractive things, that's why we find them attractive/ beautiful. That's just nature.
When it comes to people though, I think society is so focused on the gym culture/ perfect body thing these days. Its seems harder and harder for the average masses to get any attention.

All of you are right your appearance is what gets the other persons attention and who you are keeps them in but maybe it is just me but it seems that no matter how good of a person you are it doesn't matter to so many people. You can be the sweetest person in the world but if there is something wrong with you physically; you will be dropped like a hot potato.

I am not just saying this for attraction in a relationship; I see so many people saying so many rude things about others they do not even know just because of what they might have on, or their hair, or just something like that. Comments that they will never come in contact with that person just because of some little stupid thing that doesn’t even matter.

There are a lot of people out there that do not do that and that’s awesome but then there are a lot that do and my question is juts why? Why be so shallow? How can you even have good friends or relationship if all they care about are your looks? Is it really worth it?

Looks are a relative phenomenon. If we all had three fingers on the left hand, we'd think it perfectly normal and would think others more beautiful if they had three fingers on the left hand too.

People's expectations parallel their surroundings and what they see most of the time. We have media bombarding us with Photoshopped beauties 24/7. Visit a different culture and you'll discover looks are taken more with a grain of salt.

I completely agree with Descartes, but one attribute that is considered beautiful on a global level is symetry

i was just joking around, don't take that personally. I've seen your picture, and you are nice lookin', but what i do mean is some girls think i'm really good looking, and some think i'm really not.
I really couldn't care what the wants that don't, think.
