Why would anyone call someone ugly? Isn't it really mean?

I have always wanted to put this question up. First I was ignoring at my best but then it got quite bothering. There's a cousin I have who is barely 8. I don't know why she does that always. I never took anything seriously considering her to be quite little. And also I have another cousin in family. She is of my age. Regardless of being brought up by well qualified parents, they're adamant on calling me ugly.

The younger one says: Oh my God, I hate your nose. Its so ugly. You should cover it.

The older one says it to my sister: I am sorry but your sister is very average and is not fine at all. I hate her face features.

And trust me, I praise them both a lot

I've asked myself this for years because when I was in middle school I liked this boy who was one grade above mine and somehow he find out and his friends started chasing me around school calling me ugly. It was horrible. I mean, my teeth were terrible, I had acne so yeah, of course, I didn't look my best guys. But neither did them. That doesn't justify being a shitty person. Plus, we had a couple kids at school that had disabilities and they were genuinely the nicest people to them. Just because I didn't have a disability did that mean I DESERVED to be bullied? I was the shy, quiet person who had good grades so I guess that made me a target. I want to believe it was because that made them feel better about themselves and more empowered I guess. It took me years to overcome all the scars and insecurities that came from that, but I've forgiven them and actually feel sorry for them. There is no logical explanation to it. Speak up and defend yourself. Talk it with a grown up. I wish I had at the time

Yes of course it's mean. It's damn right nasty. They sound like awful people. There's no need to be rude and mean to people like that. It's not just mean, it's a form of bullying.

If my kids talked to anyone that way , I'd slap it out of them and make them apologize.

There's enough hatred and evilness in the world without being part of it by intentionally being mean to people by calling them names and saying hurtful things

They're toxic people, so you should either cut all contact them them, or at least limit your contact with them.

You are very right, girl. Stay blessed ❤❤❤

Aww thank you, bless you too ❤

Only a piece of shit would randomly tell someone that they’re ugly. There’s no confident self assured person on this planet that would put someone down like that for no apparent reason. Only time I’ve called someone ugly is when they were insulting my appearance initially. When I was bodybuilding, a lot of people just thought it was perfectly fine to tell me in front of my face that my body was ugly. I wasn’t even on a “freak” level. It really pissed me off and I noticed that the only people who said this were unattractive. It was projection.

Even on here, some girl on anon randomly told me my face is ugly even though she can only see the upper half of it. Literally just told me this at random using the anonymous feature as a safety net lol. People who do this are generally unhappy with themselves and put others down to make themselves feel better as cliche as that sounds.

[Hassaniscool]

Fuckers like that need to be put in their place

[tenukitanuki]

When we were approx 13-14 we would run around yelling down people with one simple insult: "You're poor!" "Shut up, you're fucking POOR!"

It was awful and cruel but we did it without thinking and that's what made it funnier. Also, we were running around the boardwalk just being sweaty kids thinking about rubbing our parts together.

But honestly, I mostly save ugly to describe someones' character so that it can burn them from the inside out when I say it.

[centerline]

yes, it is mean.
but there ARE ugly people in the world, and they probably know they aren't really attractive, and there really is no good reason to point it out to them... doing so says way more about the darkness and insecurities of your inner personality than it does anything else...

[Pinay_ako]

A few people have called me ugly many times, even from my own family... It hurt but it's on them. I don't answer back. I just let them say whatever they want to say whatever makes them happy.

[kayaleyla285]

Aww I am sorry for you. Stay blessed. You're gonna rock at life sweetheart. Plus you look quite good to me already

[Pinay_ako]

Thanks.. My own aunts keep saying to me how ugly and fat I look while growing up. Even stops me from eating more because I'm "fat enough"...

[kayaleyla285]

Thats really bad!
I haven't heard anything as such from my elders and not even some young people but there are 2 to 3 people. They call me so.

[Moonchild714]

Well it's not nice. People can be mean. That's life. There are mean people and there are overly nice people, try to be in between not a pushover and not mean...

[Moonchild714]

1) Their your Cousins, families say shit like that to each other...
2) Their kids always say you're ugly.

[Moonchild714]

3) Start hitting them back with it, you're, you're stupid, yoyr parents picked you out of the garbage, you're adopted (this one only if they aren't really adopted)... LOL

[kayaleyla285]

Trust me! My family is super loving. And I am quite close to them.

[kayaleyla285]

I would never do this. This is not my thing. I can't hurt anyone.

[Moonchild714]

It's teaching them a lesson:
Do unto others as you want done to you.
So they like insulting their cousins they must ant their cousins to insult them...

[kayaleyla285]

Kill em' with kindness 😉

[Moonchild714]

That doesn't work on kids. But do your thing.

[Drifter83UK]

Sticks and stones may break your bones... If that doesn't apply to you.
There are lots of dumb shits around. So why listen to them? What's the point of taking Ren & Stimpy serious?

Also, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Ugly and pretty differs to everyone. Your cousins are silly little shits who need someone to pop their egos and bring them back to Earth...

Are they as pretty as they think... Do they have a pretty certificate from the state? Lol
Fucking bullies need a lesson..

[aleksi_siltala10]

It's mean and childish, adults should be able not to say every stupid thing they think. (I don't know who were you talking about but calling someone ugly is just very immature and rude).

[kayaleyla285]

I know right!

[Anonymous]

I've been called ugly, jimmy neutron, the name of a local known pedophile, shrek, your face looks weird, creepy and lots of other names i can't even remember. Mostly by guys. I usually have no problem attracting girls for some reason

[kayaleyla285]

I am sorry! I hope you're good now. :)
Stay blessed

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah im good, thank you and you too

[Opinion Owner]

You look beautiful, ignore them

[Browneye57]

Oh my, such a quandary.
The bigger question would be, why do you bother entertaining anything they say?
Sometime it works to simply reveal the truth about a rude comment - "That's just rude." Done.

[BluesheepOwl]

@Browneye57 have you ever been in a physical fight and did you win it?

[Browneye57]

@BluesheepOwl - Of course. But you can end up in jail for that, did you know that?
What does that have to do with being ugly?

[BluesheepOwl]

Nothing. I was just curious. And of course it's assault.

[Browneye57]

@BluesheepOwl - Ever been in a gun fight? Or had to shoot someone? Of course - that's homicide.

Do you always do this? I mean WTF over?

[BluesheepOwl]

I've never held a gun before 😵 I've had a leave it to beaver life growing up.

[Browneye57]

@BluesheepOwl It's actually very fun. The feeling of power and the rush never seems to escape the first timer. You should try it - find a great guy and ask him to take you target shooting. Guns aren't bad, people are. Never forget that.

[BluesheepOwl]

Ok :) thanks for the advice

[Gedaria]

YES. But you can just shrug it off , don't let them get you down.. Its only their opinion, it doesn't mean anything ….

[kayaleyla285]

👍👍

[Brookie1212]

People used to call me fat to my face. People are just mean sometimes and don’t care who they hurt

[kayaleyla285]

Aw I hope you're alright, girl. ❤
Stay blessed.

[Brookie1212]

Thank you beautiful❤️ I mean they don’t call me that anymore but back then it hurt. Stay your sweet self

[kayaleyla285]

❤❤❤❤
Its good to hear that its no more :)

[homegardener]

Speaks volumes of the mindset prevalant in your extended family. Presentability has its importance but being contemptuous on someones genetic makeup is a mechanism to cope with a pathetic life for chutiyas

[homegardener]

Not to mention it reveals their own insecurities

[Rangers]

They put others down to make themselves feel better

[kayaleyla285]

Very true!

[poneglyphs]

A girl i went out with told me that i was ugly and I didn't really know what to do afterwords.

[El_Heffe]

I find the moniker extremely distasteful and o defend those to which they refer, voiciferously, and loudly as well so that others can see this boorish attitude.

[I_need_sleep]

It is but other people don't really think words have meaning

[cavmanier]

From my experience, people tend to do that when they're bitter.

[Secret6620]

No clue. Had someone do this to me this morning unprovoked. Such strange behavior. 🤭💞

[jennifer_bloom]

When somebody calls somebody ugly - they are revealing their lack of character and emotional intelligence because a mature person accepts people with physical imperfections

[SexyAshh]

Some people hate themselves and project their insecurities onto others

[ElizaPam]

Before I transitioned into a girl girls used to always call me ugly and it was always one of the most devastating feelings.

But I was an ugly boy because I was meant to be a pretty girl! 🤗

[flaminhotcheetos]

it is mean, and any decent human being wouldn't tell someone they're ugly

[Anonymous]

I know we’re all supposed to pretend like no one is ugly, but in reality some people are just ugly. We shouldn’t go around telling people that out loud, but some people are rude enough or brutally honest enough to say it.
