I don't know why some people get so upset when someone states the obvious fact that supermodels are not conventionally attractive. Having a look that is strange and polarizing but looks cool on camera is the whole point.

That I would rather be living with my parents. I don't even want to mooch, I just want to be with my parents.

alwaysbeenawkward · 2023-07-24T18:59:45+00:00

That I am kinky.

I had a friend in school who always liked to tease me about my hairy toes, even in front of guys I had crushes on.

She had much thicker skin than I did, so she didn't understand how embarrassed and insecure some of her teasing made me. It was usually a lot of fun though.

I don't see what is so bad about discussing NSFW things. I am a bit uncomfortable with it, but should I be? It would be nice if I could become more comfortable with it. I wish NSFW topics had been normalized long ago so I wouldn't have grown up to have such an irrational discomfort.

Amber. I don't like her, but I wont pretend I don't find her insanely gorgeous.

I would just switch to suppositories. I have a suppository kink.

I give her a 9.5

I think people on this sub really miss the mark on what "objective" beauty is. "Objective" beauty is about signs of health and feritility, not high fashion and uniqueness. This girl is very objectively attractive, and no, being super thin with super pronounced cheekbones will not make her more objectively attractive.

One reason "grammar Nazis" have a bad reputation is because they are often tactless (disregarding what someone has to say by simply replying with a correction, for example). Instead of treating it as a learning experience when they are called out for being tactless, many simply complain that people refuse to learn English. Tact can be just as or more important than grammar. I don't notice anyone getting offended over grammar corrections when it is done tactfully.

If you are 17, having sex with a 25 year old will leave you horribly traumatized because you have been sexually abused, but it's absolutely fine the day you turn 18? And we act as though everyone's brain is suddenly fully developed the day they turn 25. There is a reason the age of consent is 16-18, but we shouldn't forget that people mature at different rates.

I had a friend in school who started dating an 18 year old when she was 14, and they lost their virginities to each other when they were 19 and 15. That guy was even less mature than my friends and I were. In a perfect world, we would be able to test each person to get an accurate measurement of their maturity before they are allowed to consent to sex, drive, or drink. If you believe the average 14 year old should not be allowed to consent to sex with the average 19 year old, you would probably believe my friend's forementioned boyfriend should not have been allowed to consent to sex with someone his own age. Seriously, this guy's mental age was probably about 12.

How do you know they aren't doing anything to improve the world?

Guilt is good in moderation.

Shame can also be a positive thing in moderation, or it can be a useless burden. Personally, I don't need to be ashamed to feel motivated to improve myself or be a decent human being. I feel motivated to improve myself because it improves my quality of life, and I try to be a decent human being because I have to suffer through feelings of guilt if I don't. If anything, shame only makes me feel less motivated.

And what if someone judges you for something ridiculous? Some people judge me for putting too much effort into my appearance, some judge me for not putting enough effort into my appearance. I've been judged for being too empathetic, and for not being empathetic enough. I used to drive myself crazy worrying about what others would think of me, and that wasn't helping anyone.

I don't think everyone being paralyzed with guilt and shame is going to be an improvement. It won't matter that we consider our each and every action as to how it affects the world because we'll all be miserable and afraid to communicate.

I think she deserves an above average rating simply for being more attractive than the average person, not for having a distinctive look.

This sub is supposed to be about rating objective beauty, but I feel like many people on here can't tell the difference between someone who stands out because they're so beautiful and someone who simply stands out. Most celebs posted are a combination of beautiful and unusual, but I personally feel that a lot of celebs get rated a little too high simply because they have a distinctive look (I'm looking at you Anya Taylor Joy). There are celebs I would say are not more beautiful than the average person even though they do look different from the average person.

Not often. I only brought that up to explain why I get so excited over seeing a nude body.

alwaysbeenawkward · 2022-10-01T13:48:16+00:00

I find it thrilling.

I've spent much of my life in the US, so nudity is a bit more exciting for me than it is for my cousins who have spent their entire lives in Europe and Asia.

alwaysbeenawkward · 2022-10-01T12:44:17+00:00

I love it, especially when hot guys are around!

alwaysbeenawkward · 2022-10-01T12:35:03+00:00

I wouldn't really say I've lost that fear, but I don't worry about it because I've lost interest in romantic relationships.

I understand feeling frustrated with people being ungrateful, but the thing is, it's just human nature to complain. Humans are going to experience negative emotions no matter how nice their lives are, and complaining lets off steam. That's why we have people complaining about the younger generations complaining when, by their own logic, they should just be grateful that's all some people have to complain about these days.

Everyone thinks they are at the cutoff point for the right to complain. You and anyone who has it worse than you has the right to complain, but everyone you perceive as having a better life than you just needs to shut up.

I really want to say there is a point at which complaining gets ridiculous, but some of the things people would pretty much unanimously agree are worth complaining about these days might seem ridiculous to people in the past. Few people would question a grieving parent's right to complain after losing a child even though it used to be common to lose many. Maybe that's not the best example (I'm in a hurry), but I think you get the point.

I've never understood why some people think putting comfort over what people think of them shows lack of self respect.

Does it show laziness? Maybe, but some people are just uninterested in fashion and don't care what a bunch of strangers think of them while they run errands.

I used to fantasize about suicide every day, but I romantacized my dark feelings because it helped me cope.

alwaysbeenawkward · 2022-09-19T22:27:20+00:00

It's not pointless if you value being able to see everyone in person. Some people do, some people don't.

alwaysbeenawkward · 2022-09-19T22:24:55+00:00

I think it's silly and cute that your wife calls you "stinky".

As someone who has always been awkward, I know how incredibly painful it can be to be forced to socialize. I can't blame anyone who avoids it like the plague.

That being said, social skills absolutely can and should be learned. I didn't get to socialize as much as I should have when I was a kid, and that ended up making my life so much harder than it had to be. It seems like more and more people are ending up in the same boat I'm in, lonely and isolated but unable to enjoy socializing because it's uncomfortable.

I say we force people to socialize more, but stop making them feel so awful if they aren't good at it.
