Am I ugly because I am fat?
Only if you allow societal norms and idealization to dictate how you view beauty.In Western cultures, fat is generally viewed as “ugly,” but that’s not universal. In some cultures thin is considered less desired in women (Mauritania, for example, actually has camps to fatten women to make them more desirable).A lot of what dictates this is wealth. In Western societies being fat was - at one point - viewed as a sign of wealth, and therefore also seen as a sign of health. Now it’s the opposite. So in Africa, where famine and starvation are major problems, being fat is considered a sign of wealth and is desirable to many African cultures, particularly in Mauritania where some girls are force fed (not always willingly) in order to find them spouses.In other words, beauty is entirely arbitrary. What is beautiful in one culture isn’t in another. If you want to limit how you view beauty through a societal lens, then fat probably equals ugly (unless you live someplace like Mauritania, obviously).If you want to be open to seeing beauty in the word that extends beyond the boundaries of what society has determined is beautiful for you, then no. It doesn’t equal ugly.As an aside, I want to add that I vehemently disagree with the practice of leblouh, just as much as I disagree with girls in the US being sent to our version of fat camps, where the idea is to make them thin. The difference, however, is obvious. While emotionally insidious, the “fat camps” of the US aren’t likely to cause immediate physical danger, and the leblouh camps of Mauritania certainly do.I also want to say that I do not agree with everything written in the article I linked to, as I know fat women who bike, hike, run marathons and are extremely active, eat in a way that most would consider “healthy” and don’t suffer from health issues. That’s obviously not the norm or desired of a fat woman in Mauritania, but it is possible and does happen.On a final note, it’s interesting to hear from a woman who can’t get fat enough to be considered attractive. This is a common issue, where weight gain is difficult for some people who are more inclined to naturally be thin. It’s partly why actors/actresses can gain weight for movie roles and easily lose it after or why some women easily lose the “baby weight” after pregnancy, while others struggle and can’t. Bodies are unique and genetics plays a huge factor in weight and body composition.
Do you guys delete ugly pictures of yourself?
Or when you're with a friend and they snap an ugly picture of you on their camera? I don't get why my friends are always telling me to delete ugly pictures of them, when they're not even ugly.
My prom date is fat and ugly. What should I do?
Go with her. The demonstration will be admirable. Make her feel good about herself for prom night. It is not like you're going to marry her, be her boyfriend or sleep with her. She will remember this night for a very long time and she will recognize you for being a man about it as well as everyone else. This is an impact on her life. Prom night may be a very rare occasion for her to feel good and you have the chance to make that happen for her. A 'ladies-man' is capable of make any women feel good regardless of shape, race or religion she is because he prides himself on being a gift to ALL kinds and types of women :P You do this and it will definitely be appreciated by us guys :-) Respect.
Why does everyone call me fat and ugly?
Wanna know what's wrong with you? Nothing. You're beautiful. Everyone is beautiful. The world is just screwed up. First off, it doesn't matter how much someone weighs. Everyone is fat in someone's eyes. Just because someone isn't underweight, they're ugly. Don't listen to these dummies on here either. Trust me, I've been there before. Everyone says I'm fat. I'm 5'1 and around 115. Blue eyes and blonde and brown hair. I get called things that don't even make sense. Apparently I'm a whore since I've never had a boyfriend. Apparently I'm ugly since I don't cake my face in makeup. Apparently I'm fat since I'm not 90 pounds. Someone always has to put someone down. Just hang in there girl <3 middle and high school, worst years ever. 7th grade? the year I was anorexic and got through it. Because now I know I'm perfect how I am. And I pray that you will too (: xx
Do you think I'm fat ?? Or ugly ? Honestly.?
You are not ugly, pretty in fact. You should have put a full body up though in a bikini.. :) I'm not a pervert, I just wanted to see the whole picture. What size are you? Hey, just so you know, I weigh 119 now but I have been as low as 113 this summer and as high as 189 for a semester in high school when I was forced to move to my father's house. After I went from my usual HS weight of 150 and gained 40 pounds, I lost it and then gained some more in college and then lost more after college and now I go up and down, never above 143 or so, I'm 5'8. Don't sweat it. If you want to talk about it, email me, OK?
Why do ugly fat guys get boyfriends but I don't?
Why do the people who don't seem to be that desirable or attractive get boyfriends and I don't. People tell me i'm cute/handsome, nice, and have a good personality but I STILL don't have a boyfriend and i'm 21 in college! My friends know i'm gay and say you're a good looking guy, you should have plenty of potential dates. But..I don't i've NEVER had ONE date. The only time I had something with a guy was my junior year of high school but he moved after a couple of months and we never really went out or did anything so it really doesn't count. I went on one of those stupid gay dating sites (I think it's called grindr or something) and I only got the uglies, sorry, the people that I'M not attracted to at least. I know i'm not ugly because the guy I was 'seeing' in high school was gorgeous and there were a couple of other good looking guys that also liked me in high school. Plus, as an experiment I went on some stupid site like chatroulette for fun with a friend and a few guys hit on me..so..That's why I don't do online dating because I never get anyone I'm attracted to, and the people that I could have an interest in don't say anything to me..and I don't make the first move.so it gets nowhere and I just delete my account everytime. Sighh
Should I delete my cousin off of my facebook?
people who said i started it, please read the details carefully. it was her picture, she was making fun of a stranger and knew other people would have to. she is just as wrong as i am for talking about that stranger. how does my body have anything to do with her picture. And we are family, you just don't do that to your own people.
Should I keep cutting myself. Please don't delete 14, girl. (This is not for attention, I need to talk to someone and advice is needed.)?
I just dont know who I am anymore. I'm lost. I am now in 8th grade. I know when I was in 5th grade I was so inoccent and didn't know hardly anything I loved my life. Then in 7th gradeso much girl drama, I scratched myself out of anger and tryed choking myself with a scarf. I also had a lot if family drama and my birth mother died. I went to counseling and it got better. And now im like I said in 8th grade. I'm not to popular I feel low self asteam I even have a friend who tells me Im ugly, sometimes she says she joking but I doesnt really look like it And I have this one fat roll on my belly And my friends have told me Im Kindof fat. So all this boy stuff happened. First guy was my age iv known him since I was 8 and we live close together. And we started dirty talking and iv almost let him have my virginity. We were caught the first time we ever Texted. But I kept finding ways to text him. Second guy 17 lots of crud happend and he promised he would never ask me to send a pic but he did. I sent them both a few pics. And now they both pretty much stoped talking to me. I still try to talk to the first boy. I feel like my life is over my family is fighting and I'm lieing to everyone can't focus on anything but the negitave I feel like I'm depressed. I have cut myself, multiple times arms rist stomache legs neck top leg. I feel fat so I started making myself through up last night and I'm still doing it. I'm afraid and just not comfortable with my life or family any more.Advice?
This guy called me fat and ugly and is mean to me, but we're adults. Why does he do that?
Firstly because he hasn’t had a good upbringing. Though being an adult, showed signs of immature behaviour. There is no dearth of such people who take pleasure in making other people’s lives miserable. Also, some them are complete braggarts and keep boasting about the smallest of stupid achievements of theirs. Such people often feel uncomfortable around confident and intelligent people.You might feel offended and feel like crying but don’t give them that pleasure, instead continue doing whatever it is that you were doing at that point in time. Do not give them an answer or they will feel that you are giving an explanation to them.If there’s nothing you can do to control your emotions, just walk away. Don’t waste time on such morons.Alt/Ctrl/DeleteCheers and take care.
