The French judges consider it, along with "innate dignity."

Well, who are we kidding, of course I would, but that doesn't mean I have an active thing for her.
She was a hot preggo.

Reality?

And I'll thank you to stop channeling Stuart Smalley.

All kidding aside this has kind of fucked with my head. Which is I am sure, TM's goal since he's all about the truth, and being "honest" and basically messing with people's heads. If that was your goal, good man, then you've achieved it. But me being me I reserve the right to consult a second opinion :)
You need to quite while you're only as far behind as you are.

1. You picked the wrong person to meet IRL if you wanted an ego stroke. He's not being unduly harsh and I don't think he's trying to mess with your head.

If you've ever really read Thurgreed's posts you have to know he's one of the tougher "graders" here when it comes to looks. Other guys might think you are pretty but he doesn't. So what? He's one guy. The only problem is that he's the one you invited to report back on your looks.

2. You're overreacting. He never said you were ugly or butt or any of the other things you've been posting out of hurt feelings. There's a whole lot of territory between not pretty and ugly and it's where most of the population lives

3. There is a big difference in how people perceive the attractiveness of a stranger and someone they know. I have a friend whose sister was Miss USA but I think she is prettier than her sister because of her personality. People who know you and think you are pretty are considering you as a whole. That should be much more important to you than what TM, or anyone else who doesn't know you, thinks.

4. On the plus side, he said you had a nice personality (or something like that, I don't want to scroll back to find out). Considering the board persona you had established before you met, that's a huge compliment.

5. You are investing waaaaaaaaaaay to much emotional energy in what TM and a bunch of anonymous posters think about your looks. Actually, you are investing too much emotional energy in what anyone but you (and probably your husband) thinks about your looks.

So let it go.

sigh. TM is this what this is all about? you are supposed to be objective. I didn't find you attractive in that way either but was able to say objectively you are handsome. I think you're mistaking that with analyzing objectively. you're not my type either at all. not that you weren't nice or intelligent...you are.
This is all starting to remind me of the Howard Stern bit where he'd evaluate women to tell them whether they were hot enough to be in Playboy. And they never were. And they were always shocked...shocked ...that this was the case. And always argued with him about why he was wrong.

Is this a visual from the film, or from your own head? I have never seen the former, and have had only glimpses into the latter.

I have heard that real beauty is on the inside. Which is, in itself, a really beautiful way to look at it. I mean, think about it. Is not the very definition of superficial "on the outside"? If the superficial among us want to get hung up on outside appearances, well, I guess we have learned a little bit more about those people, and I do not mean that in a good way. As for me, I can only judge how attractive you are after I get a good look into your soul. By happy coincidence, the best way for me to look into the soul of a women is to gaze deep into her eyes while she is engaging in unsolicited fellatio on me. And if she has large but perky tits, all the better.

Two of my favorite passages in a news article this week:
[list=1][*]We're back at the pool, where I meet Wayne, the genteel, well-groomed leader of Healthy Hides of Houston, a social organization that boasts 90 members. I'm distracted by a tall, bulbous man in his sixties who walks by me. His belly seems to have an additional spare tire. White hair dots his back. Each cheek of his desktop-flat ass ripples like a flag of surrender in a war movie. He bears a large terrible tan line; it's so expansive, it looks like he's been sitting in a pool of thick white paint. His breasts point sadly to his knees. This man should never be naked -- not even when he's bathing. And yet he strolls around poolside like he owns this place -- and he does so confidently, nonchalantly and happily. This is his turf and he's here to work on his (dining table-size) tan line. There is one beautiful, well-built couple here, so I just can't understand why I looked at tan-line guy in the first place.
[*]"Oh, everybody takes in the full picture once. Once," says Marianne in passing. "That's just human nature. But not after that. I mean, that's just not what this is about."

"Well, of course I look," says Jim, a gay father of six adopted children (who are all here and all nude). "I look at men's...endowments. I think 'Oh, wow' or 'Oh, that poor, dear man.' But yes, I notice, at least once. I still remember when I first saw him. That man has the largest penis I've ever seen." Jim points to a well-built man in a baseball hat and sunglasses standing nearby. The man's appendage hangs nearly to his kneecaps. Heck, it's the longest penis I've ever seen.

All this penis talk raises an inevitable question: "What about erections?" I ask. "I mean, you figure with all these guys..."

"I've only seen one, and the guy apologized profusely," says Marianne. Slim fesses up. "I've discovered that I can't slow-dance naked with my wife," he says. "I've done it with other women -- nothing. But with Lucille, it's trouble."

I also can't help but notice that in apparent contradiction to the natural approach, pubic hair is, well, showing up missing. Nearly every woman who walks by is completely shaved or has a tiny landing strip. Same with the younger guys. I'm starting to wonder if I'm breaking some sort of nudist etiquette.[/list=1]
(spree: intrepid reporter visits nudist camp, sfw)
My best friend's sister is married to a guy whose father used to own a nudist camp. There was upset a few years back when the family went to visit Grandpa at his camp. My friend's nephew (who was ~12 at the time*) wanted to swim in the pool and a bunch of old meanies told him he couldn't go in unless he took off his shorts. I think they backed down once his mom intervened on his behalf.

*He is now a gorgeous, sullen, pot-smoking, 18-year-old ladies' man.
