Do you consider yourself to be more physically attractive than the average person?

Masturbation is so annoying.

I can think of better pastimes, but I suppose it can suffice. W/E.

Aye, I'm him/her/that :)

I should also mention that Leslie garnered almost 8% of the 2000 mayoral election vote.

I'd much rather compliments on the way I dress or something, because at least that's saying something about a thing I've had some say in. My looks are ... well, you might as well compliment that tree over there so we can at least admire it together - because I had about as much say in its looks as I did mine. Anyway, I've never equated a guy's looks or strength with how attractive I find him in any real way. And guys that obviously give a lot of attention to their looks really turn me off.

I understand how you feel, Jem. I always found it strange and uncomfortable (though flatterring) when people compliment my looks on days where I put no effort into it, which is essentially everyday; the only thing I do on a regular basis related to grooming is maybe combing my hair. Although, when I do put effort, that is dress a little nicer than I usually do for some outting and get compliments I am much more comfortable and receptive.

Anyway, my perception of good looks is heavily dependent on personality.

I am probably somewhere around the 96th percentile of guys my age in terms of attractiveness. Maybe higher if I didn't insist on looking like a cave man.

This thread should be re-titled: "are you more delusional than the average person?"

But that doesn't make sense because my answer would change :(

it would? lol

j/k g, i'm not directing the comment at you... at the general tenor.

YEAH RIGHT

*runs away, hands crammed in his face, tears flying behind him*

I would say that I am below average as in my physique, but I think I make up for it in how I carry myself (i.e. confidence), or at least I try.

I wouldn't say BELOW average for you Jim, at least not facially. However you very well may be a Stringjimbean, but despite the apparent negative implications, this also means that you have the potential to be nicely cut with minimal effort. Like me :)

I'm at work right now and not keen on googling for a paste, but I swear if someone doesn't post a pedobear reference in response to this, I'll cut one of you.

One thing: I have a really hard time accepting compliments when I know I'm not the best I can be. About five years ago I weighed almost 20 pounds more than I do now (not sure why really, I think I was unhappy and it was emotional eating). If I had received a compliment back then about anything--hair, clothes, "you look nice", I would have wrote it off in my mind as being untrue or as meaning very little. Now, however, I welcome compliments because I agree with them, relative to my own personal potential.

---

Oh my god. I totally relate to this. My job last year was so stressful. I binged ate my way +20 pounds. I've always been like model skinny so I'm actually still really thin, but to me I look sort of fat and not good. And whenever people say I look good I just get all sad and think they're lying, which makes them think I have an eating disorder or something.I dunno.
Also, the difference between how I look when I'm "okay" vs. "ideal" is probably minimal to an outside observer, but it's huge to me. And it majorly affects my self-confidence, which - in turn- affects my attractiveness. I mean, I could try to fake confidence, when I'm not looking my best, but I find it impossible.

Personally, I figured it does not matter. If I achieve my goals and become a powerful and rough, but unattractive young man, women would be all over me anyway :)

Actually, when I say I am unattractive, this does not mean that I carry myself unattractively, what I mean is I do not fit what people say is attractive, or at least that is what people think of the standards. People around me act as if I am somewhat attractive.

Actually, I have always wanted a scar on my face. I think that would fit my personality :P

I know a guy with a scar on his face. He's cute. A bit scattered, but cute. And nice.

Please add this to the official members' pics thread.

aww, :)

yeah i dunno.. i tend to get obsessed with little things, individual things about someone's appearance. like noses, something will physically upset me or make me feel good or whatever.

this kind of question used to be easier to answer.. if we're talking about a symmetric scale? my face is not symmetric.. i think i can be feminine.. carriage varies on the confidence scale -- i mean i think its harder to look sexy looking for car keys than i dunno.. walking confidently down the street? haha. its hard to not laugh at this. i dunno. Let's say under average or a little above average but thats ok i have a better personality then. I also tend to think with grooming and good eating habits and youth make people look handsome. A lot of people. I would say that average is handsome.

I get complimented a lot, like what happened in the other thread. In a vulgar manner, even when I'm just trying to sip Perrier and act classy. But in all honestly, I have a serious inferiority complex and believe myself to be an ugly duckling.

The ocean floor is hidden from your viewing lens
A depth perception languished in the night
All my life,I’ve been sewing the wounds
But the seeds sprout a lachrymal cloud

I like the way I look, usually, and I guess that's what matters the most., although I go through fits of incredibly low self-esteem.

I agree with this! And I think sometimes it's just chemistry or something that stands out about someone, even if you can't quite put your finger on it.
