Do people assume things about you based on your looks?

[bigpauly]

[Oigit]

Yes and I embrace it. People have said I look mean, evil or scary. Also I have been told some of the shirts I wear are offensive. So I'm the kind of person that people rarely approach or talk about within ear shot. Also old people can sometimes be caught off guard when I hold the door open for them. But in general I'm not a super social person and most of the time when I'm out and about, I don't want to interact with people. That and the uncomfortable looks I get from random old people when I hold the door open are always funny.

[Sonorous]

Yeah. I've had many people assume that I'm up to no good due to being a darker skin tone. But then they hear my voice (I sound like a white guy) & their anxiety goes away.

[bigpauly]

Lol wow that's sad. I totally believe it though

[Sonorous]

But sometimes when my voice isn't enough, I'm forced to whip out the "bless the lord" on em which usually does the trick. Then if they start asking me questions about religion and shit, I'm covered since I was legit forced into the christian religion at a young age & had to keep pretending I was christian until I was old enough to (hypothetically) beat my mother in a fight.

it's been a long life

[bigpauly]

wow, ridiculous

[Sonorous]

ya get used to it after a while

[JustAnj]

All the time ☺️

People assume I am Filipino or a mix of something.

When they see me in person a lot of people get intimidated by me which I find funny cause I am short. Lol

They assume my weight is much lower then I am.

And I seem to have a face that makes people think I will be angry but once they talk to me I am very bubbly and jokey.

[bigpauly]

Lol nothing scarier than an angry short girl

[JustAnj]

If you ever met my sister.

She is shorter then me (I am 5'2 she's 4'11) and man that temper.

She's like an angry Chihuahua. 🤣

[bigpauly]

Lmao nice

[Ms_Facesitter]

I'm tall so that makes people think I'm intimidating, not afraid, can get any man I want, that I only date people taller than me, that I am automatically very dominant or a dominatrix, what else, the opposite, that I should curse my height and that it's not attractive to be that tall.

[bigpauly]

Oh wow that’s crazy you’d be expected to act and be into certain things just because of that.

I’m really short so I guess we are like opposites lol. That being said, tall is still beautiful and I hope you realize that and don’t let haters get you down

[Ms_Facesitter]

I don't listen to the haters or people who assume, they're just annoying. Don't listen to them either. :)

[Ms_Facesitter]

Short guys can be really attractive as well!

[bigpauly]

Good, and I won’t!
*gives you a low hi five

[bigpauly]

Thank you for saying that! I know a lot of girls don’t mind but I still see a lot of negative comments about short guys too so it’s nice to have a balance for the confidence sometimes lol

[Ms_Facesitter]

If you take care of yourself, know what you want and go for it and you're easy to get along with, you're attractive in my book ;)

[bigpauly]

I think I can accomplish all the above 😏😏

[Ms_Facesitter]

I have no doubt about that :)

[bigpauly]

Ha thanks! We need more people spreading the good vibes like you

[Starlight007]

yes, apparently to some people i look like stuck up. then when people talk to me and get to know me they be like ohhhh your actually nice and humble, i though you were stuck up, you look stuck up!

[bigpauly]

Weird lol

[Starlight007]

Lol it is weird but most people find me to be weird so may be that's why it happens to me sometimes lol

[bigpauly]

Haha well weird is good in my book

[Blackcosmo]

My face looks glum and sad so I think people look at me and think I'm depressed or something. My mom and dad always asks "what happened" and "you look so moody" and I have my normal expression on. Even my teachers and classmates in elementary commented on this.

[menina]

Yes, I'm pretty sure they assume many things about me based on my looks. They assume that I speak in a certain way with a certain accent. They assume that I'm dumb, that I'm aggressive or that I'm mean.

[bigpauly]

funny how much people can make up in there head without hearing someone speak

[menina]

I know right? I'm not surprised anymore, it has happened so many times.

[Sixgunsound]

I generally have different clothes on then the costume in my pic but I’m still the same race and the same gender so I get called all kinds of names people make a lot of assumptions about my political social and religious beliefs etc. I don’t really hide any of those beliefs in real life or on here, so I don’t understand why all the assumptions?

[Shamalien]

Yeah. I don’t dress very well, and I look like a hippy, so people assume I’m a broke loser. In actuality I’m a professional software developer working for a giant multinational corp, 0 debt, great prospects, and I actually have a lot of conservative leaning opinions on cultural issues. And don’t tell me to dress well, there’s no point, I’ve never cared for fashion and my clothes get ripped and dirty so fast there’s no point

[dustybiker]

No idea. They might be too scared to show it. Not of me of my SO. 😈

[bigpauly]

Lol uh oh

[call_me_scar]

Probably the human brain can/does make assumptions about people in about.2 seconds but who cares about their concussions

[bigpauly]

Good points

[VV3ZZY]

Yeah i get asked "can I help you sir?" when I go in a new store. They think I'm a thief because I have tattoos.

[bigpauly]

oh interesting

[NamerOfStars]

They do. They assume I'm crazy, or on drugs, or something. That's mostly adults, though; babies know better. They pretty much invariably love me.

[Sour-rose]

Because that's the first thing we see? Like I wouldn't think a woman looking like a ho was actually a cop in disguise or was actually really smart was an assassin. So i'd probably be dead on both occassions.

[Aerissa_Jade]

They assume I'm pretty, beautiful and not smart and that life is easy cause of it.

[snackthatsmilesback]

Yeah they used to assume I'm dumb but now they assume I'm smart? Lol I'm still dumb I just stopped talking.

[MCheetah]

Think of all the worst things that short or overweight people get. I've heard all of those before.

[jennifer_bloom]

People assume I’m gentle and sensitive cause very agreeable

[lamaguy]

I understand someone’s personality by looking at their face and hearing their voice when I meet them

[CattusNoir]

Sadly yes, they think i am a nerd cause i wear glasses.

[bigpauly]

Lol what an old stereotype

[Rebecka33]

More then anything absolutely my looks yes more then anything.

[skyeee_]

at least my classmates think im probably dumb or innocent. but im neither. i just look babyfaced

[Adronicus]

Yes & it's funny cause I'm kind of a nerd at heart, I used to look the part when I was younger.

[driven159]

Most everyone thinks things are all about them no matter looks or not they think the world revolves around them it turns me off

[mandyfire98]

That I might not talk to them or brush them off.

[bigpauly]

Sounds like they’re going intimidated by you

[mandyfire98]

No clue, just had guys say they thought I would be stuck up. I've had guys I've run into from highschool that said they thought I was stuck up in highschool even though I literally haven't changed my personality at all. They just never approached me or talked to me. They just assumed.

[bigpauly]

Strange thing to assume of others lol

[mandyfire98]

Yeah people just make up their mind immediately I guess. Judge a book by its cover without reading the book.

[bigpauly]

Yea too true

[NathanDavis]

some assume I'm a vampire...

[bigpauly]

You’re not?

[NathanDavis]

well, they're right...

[bigpauly]

Lmaoo

[NotJim3]

That I'm younger than I am.

[bigpauly]

Same

[Starlight007]

same

[SandandWaves]

@Starlight007 same

[JoyGirl]

Probably, but I don’t care. 🤪

[bigpauly]

Good, F them!

[JoyGirl]

Yea! 😂✊🏾

[bigpauly]

😂🤣

[Cubus]

I heard that I look 28 heh

[bigpauly]

You could rent cars with no problem lol

[avery_111]

People assume I'm intimidating

[bigpauly]

Why so?

[avery_111]

They say I look like someone who is cold and doesn't speak much. I mean true to a certain extent

[bigpauly]

I see lol

[exitseven]

Yes, people are a little intimidated by me.

[Msputiton]

All the time

[bigpauly]

Bunch of judgy mo fos out there

[Msputiton]

Very tru

[Blackcupcake]

lol yes

[bigpauly]

A bunch of judgmental pinheads out there

[YourSong]

Probably

[bigpauly]

I assume you’re devious based on the expression of your profile pic

[YourSong]

Well you’re right so I’m keeping my glasses on

[bigpauly]

I knew it!

[serious]

Yes they do

[Agape93]

Yeap

[jahaims]

Everyone does that

[TrillXHippy]

Yes they do 1000%
