The only thing I disagree with BoB's post is that some people are genetically predisposed to be overweight, and it's either very very hard or straight up impossible without 'supplementary surgery' to resolve the 'problem'.
He brings up an excellent point about the double standard of thinking one's fat when equally proportioned peers do not suffer the same mockery though. I've never thought of that.
Well, these are exceptional circumstances, obviously. I mean, people tend to not look attractive when they're throwing up and are covered in the measles, too, but I'm not going to go out of my way for conditions and diseases.Most people don't fit into that category.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I think Xandy posted a thread a long time ago about how much touching up and photoshopping models' pictures go through before they hit the magazines. It was a <i>huge</i> difference. Yeah, sorry guys, most people actually don't look like that in real life :</>D It's a LIE.

Who's at fault here? Stupid individuals. Capitalism wins every time.
You're not being serious are you?I tried to edit my picture from asian into a caucasian, once.
I never would fit in the magazines like that woman. My face is so round, my eyes not like what they call 'smokey' eyes, I'm too small, tiny, short.
The western women is like the ideal. Like the standard of beauty even. Even our men love them. LOL what are we to do?
Thats not true at all. At least not for me, lol.
"They said this day would never come. They said our sights were set too high. They said this country was too divided, too disillusioned to ever come around a common purpose. But on this January night, at this defining moment in history, you have done what the cynics said we couldn't do." - Barack Obama.

We need more curvaceous women in this world.
Additionally, more curves means more boob and ass...
...
I wonder how handsome I would be if someone photoshopped me?
...
Dove Soap Smells Good
The only way to conquer this is to assume everyone else's subjective opinion of what's beautiful is wrong. Alot of insecurity about looks, or anything for that matter tends to be caused by the comments and expectations of others. Physically speaking, it doesn't really matter what you look look like as long as you're healthy. Therefore, (in my opinion) anorexia/bulimia is not attractive.
My research paper for my Social Statistics class last semester was about photo manipulation and general perceptions of idealized beauty. But I basically BSed my way through it so I don't really have any insight to share!
I've always thought that mothers are worse than men.
I agree. Darn mom!
BoB I could QFT. Women decide they're ugly ect and you know something last time I had a girl say "I'm ugly" once I'd complimented her looks I immediately decided to try something new and went with it changed my mind so to speak just said "Yeah actually, I see what you mean...you are ugly!" strangely that didn't go down too well with her. I'm going to say it now once and only once: "Women of the damn world...when a guy or anyone for that matter tells you you are pretty/beautiful/cute don't stand there and say 'no I'm not! I'm ugly!' because you sure as hell won't like it if they then agree with you. Instead simply show some graciousness and say 'Thankyou.' then if it's true perhaps add a compliment on there 'you know you're not too bad yourself' works well...lifes a lot nicer and a lot more rewarding when you think like that."
I prefer to see girls without makeup and the like. People should stop watching shows like "Americas Next Top Model", those women aren't pretty in my opinion.
Indeed
At this point its not the fault of men or women who create these images; they're just advertising a product and giving in to popular demand which is thinner, smoother, younger, tighter.
It's totally cool if you want to wear makeup and look pretty but at the same time its important to not become a victim of the system; of course it's hard not to compare yourself with images that are so saturated in the media... but it's important to look at ideals knowledgably.
A lot of girls don't feel good about themselves, and I'm sorry but not all women are beautiful; I think its fair to have standards on personal image.
You should care for yourself, you should eat healthy, you should strive for a physically fit body, you should have healthy hair, heealthy nails, healthy skin.
The important thing is not to strive to be something or someone that that doesn't exist.
But I believe everyone should strive to better themselves physically, emotionally and mentally.
PS Aicha
You're totally cute
I know lots of boys who would like to meet you!
It's weird though - here, I notice most asians kinda stay in their own racial groups and date mostly other asians :i
I alsways had a thing for asians - rawr - but I'm just a silly geishan.
Boldly go.
