Who? He's dead to me.

Because you all have such good taste.
 

Ooof. sorry

Because you all have such good taste.
 

See, now that's my brother. Hit it twice for me. I think you may have to turn her around and close your eyes. And probably rub some menthol under your nose.

Because you all have such good taste.
 

Don't tell him I said that. Tell him I said "hi!"

Pouting doesn't make you pretty.

Look, you put yourself out there for inspection to a fairly honest critic who wasn't going to pull punches because you're a nice, happy person. I actually give you a lot of points for that, because I don't have enough self-confidence in how I look to expose myself to that kind of scrutiny.* That said, you have to live with the results of the analysis.

You have to remember that the thing that you are objecting to the most (overall prettiness) is also the most subjective of Thurgreed's three points. You're happily married and men flirt with you on a regular basis. You KNOW this. What more do you need?

*Note to anyone who has met me IRL: this is not an attempt to fish for compliments; I and the rest of the board don't need to hear testimonials to my relative beauty or lack thereof.

Because you all have such good taste.
 

I don't know. Because I mostly don't give a shit about nice hair?

What are you basing this on? My views are narrow because I don't think you're pretty?

I have posted time and time again that if you have a nice ratio you can be hot, even if you're not skinny.

I have posted time and time again that hair color and eye color and race have nothing to do with whether or not you're hot.

I have dated all kinds. You don't know what the hell you're talking about. But I like that you're on the offensive.

I'm trying to figure out why she seems to need this assessment from everyone she meets. I would say that most people I meet don't volunteer to me whether they think I am cute or pretty or beautiful or ugly. Of course there are a few people who have saddled me with their confining "labels", leaving me with nicknames that I just can't seem to escape, no matter how hard I try.

I think I have my answer about the purported hitting-on incident. And most likely the never-ending street oogling by bankers. That was the only thing that had me the least bit curious.

Sincerely,
The Pretty Lady

Because, he makes me sound like an ugly, delusional wackadoo who only thinks men flirt with her for whatever silly reason. I'm pretty grounded and know the difference.

Because you all have such good taste.
 

You just like to brawl. admit it.

Because you all have such good taste.
 

And you live where now?

If you can get him to admit to this, then his meeting you will also have changed his life.

Ahhh this is what I mean. Some men factor in the hair into the ratio. Some, legs. You didn't so it is very subjective and I did leave myself vunerable to criticism because I don't feel I am ugly which even you mr. hard grader admit to. I'm not saying I'm all that I am simply stating most find me attractive. that's all. I didn't have to do this I could have hid behind my monitor. but I didn't. I feel you portrayed me in an unflattering light. Not that you lied, but that you won't even concede that my bra size is what it is which is printed in there. agrh

France, I think.

I have to admit
 

I find the entire ppnyc "But I Am Pretty" raving/justification thread fascinating. But you all know that I am a big fan of reality tv, so this should surprise no one. ppnyc, have you ever considered signing up for Big Brother or Survivor or some such show? I think you would make excellent tv.

I have to admit
 

My husband swears he is funnier than lucky louie and if we took our show on the road so to speak we'd be a hit. don't encourage him.
