    Well damn society has us so conditioned to be a space to all sorts of numbers. We need to be happy in our own skins.. But being told by someone (especially someone who they themselves are not "all that")... Stings just a little. Lets just keep to big and tightening our bids and strive to ge that person at our High School reunions that people say, "wow! I never noticed how hot they were back then!" :p

    ...sick of.. And yet flattered...to be called an "8". Your thoughts on if "8" is a compliment or jab?

    maybe you could move up a little in the world if you would work on your sammich making skills.

    In my book, it's a complement. Only perfect goddesses are 10. Then you have supermodels and actresses, 9.

    Then you have me 8. The height of mortal non-photoshopped perfection.

    Now if only ppl would stop telling me I'm a 6.5 due to "still have a pretty face".

    You're 42, why do you care what someone said in a clearly childish game?

    kidding me? I'd be happy to be called an 8 I have been called a 5 :-( I didnt think I was that bad lol

    5...FIVE!!! Are you kidding me???? Really? Whomever told you that is a jacka$$

    I have a friend and he referenced me as a number, I punched him dead in the gut. Told him if he ever deduced me to a number, he'd get one in the nose. I love him to death though. I really do. I'm an not a number!! I'm an Nika.

    There's nothing to embrace, because it means absolutely nothing.

    I like the assumption that opinion equals rudeness.

    Most people are 5s.

    for someone who stares in the mirror and sees a 2, an 8 would definitely be considered a compliment :)

    Whenever I want to feel pretty, I just visit the prison instead of making threads on the interweb phishing for compliments

    Why the Prison? When Walmart or Golden Corral is more convienant.

    yea, not sure I get the point to this post? Do YOU feel like an 8? Why does it matter what someone you admitted isn't "all that" thinks about their perception of your appearance in an arbitrary scale of nonsense? Maybe they meant 8 out of 8? Maybe 8 out of 5. Maybe, shudder, 8/15 (ouch!) I promise you get +2 for not giving a **** what other people think, now THAT is sexy. Fishing is -2.

    Ya knkow what I thought the first time someone told me I was an 8? I thought oh great, my bottom half's only a 4 and my top half's only a 4 and that's notihing. I"m less thatn average. Because, low self esteem and pain meds. LOL.

    Then all of a sudden I got a genius! I asked separately. I post my bottom half only and wait for my lowest score. 5 or 6.

    then post my top halfs and wait for my next lowest score 6 or 7....and add them both together and BAM 11-13! on a scale of 1-10.


    Do you even...math?

    NOT fishing. So all the fishing lines are way off. I've just worked my *kitten* off to redo my body after major weight loss.. Was feeling good...then it's so sad how someone can make use feel bad about ourselves. I needed clarification. Plus, is it wrong to smile if someone gives you a heartfelt compliment? I think not.
