Why are there so many average looking girls who believe they are pretty?

[Anonymous]

What i have come to notice over the years are the number of very average looking girls usually in their early to mid 20s who thoroughly believe they are "pretty" even when they are a 6.5 out of 10 at the best. I dont know where this type of delusion comes from. Is it that young girls want to be pretty so bad that they actually believe they are pretty?

[Anonymous]

Women even average women are told they're GOLD from puberty on. And some of them after being told this enough times start to believe the hype.

[Dkc123]

Generally females just prefer the sweet lies n false reality. I know it's childish n self destructive.

[noemiii]

What a shallow question. If they want to believe they are attractive, let them. They’re attractive in someone’s eyes so who are you to dictate who’s pretty or not? Why would anyone want to live their life believing they’re ugly?
You asking something like this makes me ask why you are so worried about what another woman feels about themselves, and screams insecurity.

[Asker]

Whats wrong with telling a plain looking girl she's plain looking? you're not entitled to fake compliments

[noemiii]

And how do you look? Because from how you’re talking I can only assume you look like Adriana Lima right?

Fuck out of here. If you’re not a lesbian you shouldn’t be worried about how another woman looks so much. You seem like a pick me.

[Asker]

at least i don't go around expecting everyone else to call me pretty like you do. you sound like YOU have low self esteem

[noemiii]

Lol. Projection at its finest. If you want to go around telling women you don’t find attractive that they are, go ahead. Just make sure you look like a Victorias Secret model while you’re doing it!

[Asker]

you're projecting. Nobody has to look like a vs model to tell you what you really are. I will you what you look like even if im the ugliest girl on earth.

[noemiii]

Yeah, sure I am. Like I said, go ahead and do it and see what happens. 😉

[Asker]

Its not my fault you can't accept the fact you aren't pretty.

[noemiii]

🤣🤣🤣

[noemiii]

Typical anonymous.

Self esteem is a sign of a healthy mind. A woman shouldn't have to pass someone else's standard of beauty to think she is pretty. And it's really wrong to try to tear her down. That's the kind of shit that bullies and the mean girl clique in high school does.

This recent trend of rating people on a scale of 1-10 is toxic af. There is nothing beneficial about it. It forces everyone into a competition and causes self esteem issues by telling people that they aren't good enough. It leads to body dysmorphic disorder. Normal is considered ugly. Girls start comparing themselves to others, obsessing about their looks, and are tempted to get plastic surgery and body modification in a quest for "perfection". They become commercial products instead of human beings.

But what is perfection? It's subjective. Different people have different tastes.

The benefit of self esteem is, a person who thinks they are attractive appears more attractive to others than does a person with low self esteem. A person's personality, attitude, mannerisms and charisma play a large role in their attractiveness. That applies to both men and women.

The only problem I see is when people on social media have unrealistic opinions about their looks and what kind of partner they "deserve". They are caught up in the rating game and want a 10 when they, themselves, are not on that level. That seems to be the problem with a lot of incels. And I've seen ghetto girls who think they deserve tall, handsome, rich guys. But those desires are based on the shallowest of values.

I, personally, prefer normal, girl-next-door types. They can be adorably cute. Every normal person has their own individual character compared plastic Barbies.

there's nothing healthy about choosing to delude yourself with lies because you are too weak to handle the truth... mentally healthy are people accepting the truth. there's nothing good about being weak and chosing the cowardly way out

[Anonymous]

Delusional. Society tells them that they are. We men are part to blame because we tell chicks this to get between their legs. To me saying you’re a 10 is delusional. What she’s saying is she feels like she’s on the same level as all these high end women, that she doesn’t need to improve, she’s perfect. I get having confidence, but that’s not confidence saying you’re a 10. That’s almost being conceded.

[kellytheman]

Well it makes sense if they think think they are pretty and show that confidence it’s gonna make the guy think she is pretty. Most girls in there are still very pretty and her good looks have not faded yet. They also try hard to look pretty and it makes them feel pretty.

[Little_Bumblebee]

Why does that bother you though? Aren't they allowed to feel good about themselves? Or do you want them to grovel on the floor beneath you?

[Asker]

I dont give fake compliments to people.

[Little_Bumblebee]

You need to elaborate more on the issue

[Asker]

its wrong to give fake compliments to people. i don't try to tell ugly people they're pretty. its wrong

[Little_Bumblebee]

Indeed, but are they asking you to, or what is going on?

[Asker]

i dont think girls realize how foolish they look calling themselves fake things. what i notice through the years is that the real pretty girls rarely boast that they are pretty. its always the average looking ones who are most obsessed with their looks and call themselves pretty

[Little_Bumblebee]

Right... they are allowed to feel good about themselves.
And beauty is different to each person.

And also, why do you care?

[Asker]

@little_bumblebee

i dont beauty is that different. you may find someone is kinda good looking but not your type. but you can see why they call that person "pretty". but if its really a plain girl and there's absolutely nothing special about them... there's a good chance they're just calling her pretty to be nice.

[Anonymous]

Because even average women can easilly get sexual attraction from men, and that can mislead them into thinking guys are attracted to them because they are beautiful. But those same women complain that men won't take thems seriously, t=and the reason is they don't offer men anything of value other than sex.

[Asker]

Yea this may be the reason why

REPORTED... TROLLING.

[Asker]

Im not trolling

[EmmaMary]

No, of course you're not!! lol

[LiamHamsworth]

The research suggests that both men and women view themselves as being more attractive than others do, but the effect is increasingly becoming far more pronounced in women than in men. Why this is the case, we’re not sure, however, more and more psychologists speculate that social media likely has something to do with it.

[_no_one_]

Coz of unreal enthusiasm

OMG 😍😍😍

[Avicenna]

Well, there can be a number of reasons why a woman thinks she's pretty and it's anyhow subjective. No one is pretty to everyone anyway.

[Billlewis]

There are no average women, only women who aren't yet aware of how beautiful they are.

[Apple1996]

Why does it even matter? If they feel pretty then let them

[VikingWarLord]

it's from all the desperate beta simps who call them "beautiful" every day

filled their head with lies

[Worst]

Oh right lol only your opinion matters on their beauty

[dolemite58]

social media and dating apps have made a lot of girls delusional.

[ShellyBo]

Online dating taught them that.
