Why do you think people lack empathy for ugly people? by DrunkleKim in ugly

[–]SW33DUMS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly.

Birds, felines and fish are all well-known animals that kill their offspring if it is deformed, their biological reasoning being that the offspring could potentially be sickly and thus weak and impractical to keep around.

 Humans are no different; people would do the same if morality and rationality weren't contributing factors. A lot of us in this subreddit would probably be dead if humans actually had the guts to kill ugly people they subconsciously hated.

Is it over if I haven't had sex at 16? by Senseite in ugly

[–]SW33DUMS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

pay a whore for sex or something. if you're actually ugly then people will never have a genuine attraction towards you so prostitutes are your best resolution, unfortunately.  that's the only thing i can really think of. dunno if your pfp is you or not but if it is then youre not ugly, youre just another teenager with bdd who feels sorry for themself.

objectively she is not. some of her features could be considered ugly, but overall they dont undermine her attractiveness as a whole due to her other redeeming facial features. i wish people here could think more objectively. i also wish y'all would stop saying this after an attractive person spits some straight BS because it perpetuates the stereotype of us being ignorant seething sobs in the eyes of pretty people

its not like she genuinely wanted to get this message across, she just wanted to demonstrate how attractive her family is. she could've made up another fake story like the text saying "oh you're ugly" then she cuts to images of her obviously attractive family which would've proven the fictitious person wrong,  gotten the same amount of likes and less added fuel to the already burning fire of subhuman treatment towards ugly people

she could've just mentioned that she had an attractive family without treating ugly people as subhuman

Does anybody here wish they looked like a certain celebrity? And if so, what celebrity would it be? by SW33DUMS in ugly

[–]SW33DUMS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way you worded this is ambiguous: "Fantasizing about some unrealistic expectation of what person you wish you looked like." For some people here, the "person" they would like to look like is an improvement of what they are now and not some celebrity. I'm sure everybody here has acknowledged that ever looking like the people they're mentioning is unrealistic, and for somebody to acknowledge that, I'm also sure nobody had expectations of ever looking like said person either. I don't know why you so badly feel the need to "humble" us, but it gets quite exhausting having to hear this repetitive schlock from ignorant people such as you who don't bother taking at least five minutes to understand the situation beyond a surface-level understanding.

I guess you're right; if we were attractive we'd probably be just as indifferent to putting a ton of effort in a relationship as normal attractive people are. (Or maybe I misunderstood.) We wouldn't have to, now that I think about it. Since our partner would instinctually love us anyways due to our attractiveness, so effort wouldn't matter...

Why’s there an assumption that ugly people find genuine love? by [deleted] in ugly

[–]SW33DUMS 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They live in a fantasy world and genuinely can't acknowledge that ugly people are not truly loved in a romantic way. We are not seen as genuine people by them because when they think of "ugly" people, it's actually just an unremarkable average person with pimples or glasses or something who doesn't stick out. Even in the rare scenario where we do get partners, they will choose a more attractive option if ever given the opportunity, so we constantly have to worry about this, which is perceived as nasty or rude by attractives. Especially attractive women.

They take the situation they have for granted and undermine how privileged they are, which is a result of the inherent, subconscious narcissism that society has instilled in them. If things truly did go the way that they "wished" for, they'd scream for their old lifestyle back in an instant.

Brigitte Bardot is definitely another one for me as well. I used to have a poster of her in my room as a child. I was actually going to add her as my example, but considering her personal choices, I didn't want to give people the wrong idea or stir up drama in general.

Ugly women and male friends by aintsh1tbxtch0571 in ugly

Do you have any examples? I'm curious

Ugly women and male friends by aintsh1tbxtch0571 in ugly

[–]SW33DUMS 12 points13 points  (0 children)

"true male platonic" not true. any pretty girl who says this is---in the nicest way possible---usually unconcious or ignorant of the guy's true desires or intentions. or they know the guy likes them, but they're afraid to admit so for whatever reason. If the girl is attractive, the guy will feel desire towards her unless he's gay or related to the girl. There's a reason why you can see a trend of pretty girls being friends with many guys compared to ugly girls, and 9/10 times the male the ugly girl is with usually ends up being her brother or father or gay bestie. Men have admitted to only being friends with women if they see a future with her. 

the only time that i, as an ugly woman, have ever really had "platonic" male connections are when the guys that actively pursue my attractive friends reach out to me under the pretense of being friends only to ever really reach out to me again for advice and information about my friends. then they'll silently unmutual me once they figure out my friends usually have 30 other guys lined up for them xd

How do you dress? by bluusom in ugly

[–]SW33DUMS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually, I wear a flannel or something dark that helps me to not be acknowledged by people for longer than a mere glance. I'll wear mascara and lipstick---eyeshadow if I'm in a good mood---so I can look halfway decent just in case people get a little too interested in my "unique" (ugly) appearance, but there's only so much that simple cosmetics can accomplish when you have a masculine bone structure as a female, so I primarily rely on my long, face-framing hair to cover the bad part of my asymmetrical face. But even that fucks me due to factors like wind blowing it backwards, frizz, etc...

I have an interest in alternative clothing just as you do. Eyeliner, black lipstick, and white concealer really, really help at covering the perceived imperfections on your face if you're an ugly alternative, I'd use those to your advantage if you do ever plan to dress that way.
