We humans are so complicated, aren't we? While growing up, I was told I was the ugliest, dumbest and least talented in my family. So when I walked out into the world as an adult and people started telling me I was exotic or beautiful, it made me uncomfortable and I played it down as much as I could. Now that gravity is getting the best of me, I wish I'd believed in myself and held myself to higher standards when I was young. I wish I was more confident about that part of myself. When someone points out, with all seriousness on his/her part, that he/she is beautiful, I see a person who is actually very insecure, who doesn't believe there is anything really good or interesting about his/herself as a person. So I ignore the physical beauty and look for something inside to encourage them that they are so much more than looks. Does that make sense? It may sound corny, but in the people I am getting to know I see beauty in so many ways. Krupa's posing makes me giggle, but he has the heart of an artist and is so generous. Mg, you're purty but your peacemaking is more beautiful to me. Soufie doesn't say a lot but when she does, it's always worth reading. Andy's quest to cut through bullsh!t touches me, no matter how outrageous he can get. Dragoness and Actionlynx are so intense. Most of the time, both Winterblue's and Ladylid's comments could have been written by myself. Bulldog and Newarkjw are just so comfortable with themselves and often make me laugh out loud. Vivian is such a mixture of humor and graciousness. Luv is so open for all to see and full of love; you can't help but love her. Wux is the master of grandiose. These are just a few examples. Beauty, to me, rises above the physical and the family I've met here is like no other I've found since I came online more than 13 years ago. I guess my point is, I see you all as beautiful. |

I'd rather promote my books than my looks.... Thats what i am saying, when you are reliant on your own talents for a living, I say brag it up, promote yourself. . . sell your product...thats what it takes...network the hell out of yourself... If i wasnt so conceited people would not know who i was today...doors would not have opened at the right opportunities. I believe in fate but i also believe in knocking---(doors down-lol) Nice analogy Thanks, I don't go around like, check me out, im so gorgeous...i do mean on a attribute scale though, there is no shame in saying, hey I am really funny, im smart... im a great artist....(true story) |

Hey everyone. I probably won't be able to maintain this thread, but i think you can all identify with what i have to say. This was inspired by another thread, but the idea popped in my head, among other things that pop in my head.. like Margaritas on a beach somewhere, but i digress. Anyway, to the question at hand.. Is it a turn on, or a turn off, for someone to flaunt, or brag on their looks? Many times, I have heard comments from women, about my good looks, lol, ok, j/k there. Many times, i've heard women say, what is really sexy about a man, is a man that looks good, but doesn't think he does.. I'm wondering what the guys/women think, about women/men who do promote themselves, and do you find it more attractive, or less attractive? For me, i like a more modest person. One who doesn't think they are "all that" Your thoughts? |

You are a good looking woman Alterette! Great bone structure. It is a shame about your family putting you down young. I see alot of that. Fortunately we never did that in our family. (cept me and my brother...but, even that was just joking around)
It freed me from from alot of self consious things. When people develope insecurities at a young age...seems like they carry them with them for the rest of thier lives. P.S. I don't pose. I stand like this in line at the convenience store. |

It's taken me most of my adult life, but I'm happy with who I am ... and who I'm not. Thank you for the kind words, Krupa. And I believe you about the non-posing; I can imagine you standing that way anywhere! |
