But you pushed and pushed and pushed. Wow. Is EVERYTHING about you? I never said I had a problem with what you had to say to me in the Paris thread. I was just stating an observation I had. [Edited 9/13/06 6:17am] | |

... [Edited 9/12/06 19:54pm] You REALLY wanna know? There are PLENTY attractive photowhores here, DON'T get me wrong. But I SPECIFIACALLY had Erin, Abierman and myself in mind when I started the thread. Sorry in advance to all the attractive whores I left out. | |

I'm assuming that you're talking about you in the latter part of your post and I guess I can see where some may have said that about/to you, only because of the scads of photos that have been posted. I don't get the impression that you post your photos because you think you are better than everyone else and showing off, I get the impression that you need validation that you are pretty because maybe you don't feel that way and/or perhaps you aren't getting compliments that you desire from another. Just my impression, not trying to judge, analyze, or say that's what it is. With that being said, I think you are very pretty and I dig your photos. You have very cute kids, too. By my saying that you're pretty and that I dig your photos I am not saying that you are ugly. I don't come here very often anymore, and when I do, I rarely post, so I hope you don't take this post as bitchy comment from someone who doesn't interact on here. Just expressing my thoughts on this and like JustErin said, it doesn't really matter why you post your photos on here or why anyone does. Keep doin' what you're doin' and enjoy it for what it is. *shrug* One last thought and I'll wrap up this epic post: I also have never felt that compliments that others get is because they are "ugly". I think that most people here are rather genuine in their comments to others on here. What may not be pleasing to your eye may be pleasing to another and, sometimes, what people see is the beauty that they've come to know in another and not so much their physical appearance - knock-yer-socks off gorgeous or not. Interesting points, especially that last paragraph. Thing is, we're just regular people here, a real cross-section of society, and (as far as I'm aware) none of us are supermodels or anything. Some of us might be seen as more conventionally attractive than others, in the sense that while admitting subjectivity there are some things we can almost universally agree on when it comes to attractiveness. That said, I agree that the praise people give for pics is usually genuine considering there's also often a genuine admiration, love or respect for that person that isn't based on looks. Someone can have a pic that captures something about them and is a particularly good photograph of them. We have good pics and bad pics of ourselves and I for one am under no illusion that I am the most attractive guy on the planet or even close. However, I would like to think that I, like all others, am attractive in my own way and when I look good for me get genuine compliments for it. If you're cool with the skin you're in you know what the deal is about your own attractiveness and welcome but don't necessarily need the compliments that may come your way. Just because someone isn't drop dead gorgeous doesn't mean compliments aren't genuine. It's all relative and we play with the cards we're dealt. Then there are the other factors of attractiveness that aren't physical which come into play. Personally I take all of this into account when responding to pics. I may not think someone is particularly attractive to me physically, but I'm definitely not about to go around calling anyone ugly as if it would do me any credit to do so or do anyone any good whatsoever. i find it interesting that it can seem about the physical "looks" some of the most beautiful people i know are not society's beauty queens same goes for "ugliness"... some of the so called pretty people are only that on the exterior | |

You said it much better than I did, that's for sure. It's very immature to accuse people of being "ugly". Yes it is. It's also very immature to call people sea gulls. | |

mrdespues said: I like the operative use of the word "just" here.
Also I noticed the use of the same word by luv4all7 in regards to JustErin being "not JUST naturally beautiful". Surely natural beauty is the BEST kind? Whatever and ever, amen. It was an inside joke between her and I. Guess I should have org noted it. I didn't realise it was such an insult to everyone else. | |

thesexofit said: JustErin said: Ok, so you didn't give an answer to the question I asked but we all now know that you feel that people should not post pics of themselves or their family on the regular. That's cool. I was just interested in seeing what people had to say in response to my question. But to answer your question, I'm sure that there are plenty of people on here that are very insecure and do feel that they need attention from others to make them feel better about themselves, just as I am sure that there are some people who just like to post pictures to joke around or share a little bit of themselves with the org. What's really wrong with either reason for doing it? In fact, (and I have said this before on here) you could actually say that anyone that posts on the org is looking for attention - including you. And I see nothing wrong with that. I probably meant to quote luv4all7. Sorry Yeah, if u want to get all pedantic we are all here to express ourselves somewhat. But i (and most of us probably) are only here to pass time for one reason or another. Key word here is moderation. If i was on here everyday, all day, i would call that obsessive. If someone posts pics everyday all day, ditto. I am obsessed with myself and my family. This is true. | |

Mach said: luv4all7 said: So yanno what I noticed today about this place? With a little help from some friends, that is, cuz I'm pretty dumb at times. So sometimes I need help with the words. So here, this is what I noticed!
The funniest part about this whole posting pics thing is, if you are ugly and a photowhore, you are told you are beautiful and an amazing person and your pics are great. If you are attractive and a photowhore, you are a conceited, snobby bitch who thinks they are better than everyone else and is just showing off your looks. This place is so funny i am a beautifully, amazing, ugly, photowhore, attractive, conceited, snobby bitch Hey, me too! | |
