If that girl in the picture above said "I am pretty" I would definitely think " no you're not, but I'll play nice"
Nice take 😊 I feel like a lot of girls do that but I'm not one of them thankfully lol
Um, most girls say they’ve been told by others that they’re attractive, and even then it’s just so that people get more of an idea of what the problem could be.
Maybe that's what *you* hear-- "People tell me I'm attractive." What I see and hear is "I am attractive," much more often.
I’ve been here since forever and I’ve barely ever seen someone say “I’m attractive.” Why? Because we do actually realize that proves nothing. It’s the reason girls want to be called beautiful. Many don’t even believe that about themselves unless they're told.
Good take for the minority, though.
And yeah a lot of girls do say "they've been told... such and such," but when they do that is just comes off as them telling us they're attractive... it's kind of assumed females are fake like that. It's like when they say they "want a generous man," we hear she wants a sugar daddy or a free ride. The list goes on and on... I just chuckle to myself when I hear "I usually don't ever do anything like this." Sure... I believe her sooooo much. What next, 'never met anyone like me?' lolz
If you say so.
Yes... anecdotally speaking of course.
If that girl came up to me and told me she's pretty I'd be like " yeah I know. .. I can tell 😍😍😍😍"
Not "ok... good for you i guess"
I'd be like "why couldn't it have been a girl that's actually pretty?"
If she were actually pretty, I'd think it kinda odd but cute that she randomly told me she was pretty.
@Devourtheuniverse u don't think she's pretty?
Not really...
But I'm rarely attracted to Asians and I've never been attracted to a black girl. I'm a bit biased, but whatevs. As the post says, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".
I wouldn't be rude about it. I'm not racist.. I just have racial sexual preferences. I've heard tons of black girls, especially on this site, say the same thing about white guys. I guess most of us just don't mix. I mean, I see tons of black guys with white girls but I rarely ever see the other combination with a white guy and black girl.
@Devourtheuniverse oh ok.. fair enough lol
People reinforce their attractiveness because trolls on here begin questioning their attractiveness when they post questions about not being approached, being rejected, etc. So they do that so others don't post that as a possible reason.
Well... except they may just be asking the right questions, not trolling...
You asked why people reveal information about their level of attractiveness and I gave you a possible reason why---because outsiders tend to assume that the OP's level of attractiveness is what is causing whatever the point at issue is.
In general, people who question a user's attractiveness tend to do so with the intent to hurt or insult the person in question, hence why they are probably trolling. Not always, but 9 times out of 10 it's someone who is doing it to feel better about themselves.
That's not really what I see but it's interesting that you have that perspective. And the OP's level of attractiveness is indeed often what is causing the issue. Attractiveness is first and foremost in most people's minds.
Not necessarily. The power of attractiveness has its limits. You'd be surprised to know that the most attractive women in the world tend to get approached far less than average-looking women for a number reasons:
1. Guys assume she's already taken
2. They believe they'll get rejected because they assume that they are not good enough for her
3. They just don't have the balls to approach anybody in general
Factors such as body language and perceived compatibility also play a major role in such scenarios. So in regard to the question you asked, people online emphasize their attractiveness when they ask such questions because they predict that many people like you (no offense), will assume that they have such issues because they are not attractive. They are really looking for deeper answers such as the ones I mentioned. Albeit, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it could very well be the case that whatever issue they have could be a result of not being someone's type physically.
Holy cow, yes. Yes, this is so true.
Right?
I'm ugly and I admit I know it. Does it matter that I know it?
I don't know. How do you feel about that?
I feel relieved that I'm capable of accepting this truth
Fair enough. How long have you felt that way? I think many people feel that way about themselves in some form or fashion.
A year by now. Puberty stopped and I realized nothing will change.
It does matter telling people they are attractive i makes then feel good
... Huh? That's not the point of the post. Did you read it?
No just the headlines
I'd encourage you to read it-- it's not telling other people that they are attractive.
What's the point of your existence and this Mytake?
I'd give quite a bit to be able to say that with a straight face.
Say what?
I'd like to be able to tell gals that I'm attractive ... but I'm too honest
But the whole point of this take is that it wouldn't help you any. It doesn't help anyone.
I must need to get out way more often cuz who says things like this?
Lots of people. Mostly online in melodramatic Facebook and blog posts, but also in person sometimes. I'm surprised you've never noticed.
Good take. Everything you outlined makes sense.
Awesome mytake. I agree with everything.
very intriging article😶🙂.
"People tell me I'm ugly"
i'm not attracted to 10's. 5-7 are my favourites.
Why on Earth would that be the case?
it should.
But, but, but I am attractive.
:(
nice take
nice take brother.
