Stereotyping against Beautiful People

Change your profile picture to something not of you then if you don't want the attention. A cat, a tree, a car, idk. Pretty easy resolution.
Also your thinly veiled bragging thread got negative attention and you're surprised? Do you only interact with people who asspat you all the time or something? Go complain to your personal hugbox if you don't want people mocking you for complaining about a non issue. Idk what to tell you. That was pretty dumb of you.0 -
OMG, I GUESS THE PEOPLE ON THIS SITE AREN'T AS NICEE AS I WAS TOLD...I SHOULDN'T GET RIDICULED FOR BEING OFFENDED
Good lord, don't throw a hissy fit. This type of stuff happens on the internet often. Just block the person next time and don't worry about it. You'll be okay.0 -
Grow up..seriously
That's what I was thinking too!!!
...when reading your replies to this thread.
No really you defiantly should consider growing up..you're probably 40 something with your head shaved..what a bad *kitten*0 -
You know what, you ARE too pretty. Because both of your pictures are alllll over the internet on Tumblr and Pinterest. You must be, like, REALLLY popular!! No wonder guys won't leave you alone. :flowerforyou:0

You got into college without first learning how to spell? :noway:
Being beautiful is a cross some women learn to bear silently.
I'm not like most victims of society..I know I'm beautiful and I shouldn't be afraid to speak out about it
Beauty is more than skin deep and the attitude you've demonstrated in this thread is far from attractive.0 -

Heres a hint for managing internet creeps.
IGNORE THEM. Don't reply to msg, block them, dont even give them the opportunity to entertain the idea that you would invest time in them.
This is like internet basics 1-o-1, time to get with it.0 -

But if she ignores and deletes the messages she can't then start "look at me" drama online. There is a mature and an immature way of dealing with the situation. The OP didn't pick the mature method.0 -
But I'm also assuming that once I started to reply and wasn't acting like I was interested ( I do have a boyfriend ) he got mad?
Unfortunately, MFP is a bit of a douche canoe.
Sorry that happpened to ya....just put 'em on ignore, or report them.

Oh, sweetie, I know what you are going through. Even though I'm over 40, am married, and have weight to lose, I ALSO get hit on on MFP, and at the gym, and at the supermarket, and pretty much any where I go. I have tried to be less desirable, but I'm just.....too sexy for my own good I guess.
I think we should start a support group, maybe something like "Beautiful People Not Afraid to Speak Out About Being Beautiful" , or BPNASOABB for short.0 -

You're not serious are you?0 -
So I'm new to this website..one of my close friends told me about it and was explaining the wonderful people and the support that she got from here, so I figured I'd give it a try. But I recently got a message today from a guy I'm assuming, who started out with calling me good looking..Noww I'm not complaining I mean who doesn't like getting complimented? But I'm also assuming that once I started to reply and wasn't acting like I was interested ( I do have a boyfriend ) he got mad? or insulted which usually happens to someone once you "turn them down" he accused me of being fake? I'm sorry that I'm a mildly attractive young girl who isn't interested due to a relationship? That doesn't make me fake..and for some reason that really eerked me this morning..
Hey girl, forget him. From your profile pic I can tell you are very very pretty, but he needs to realize that you signed up for a weight/fitness sight not EHarmony. You have every right to not want guys to harass ya.0 -
I can't believe we are still posting about this 8 hours later. REALLY!!!!:noway:0

OMG! For real, you're acting like it's your fault because your "beautiful" (quoting, because that's your words) that creeps PM you. Get over yourself. Even the ugly ones (I know, I AM one, see my pictures, lol) get creep-o PM's from all forums they are on (or not, some forums are full of decent, polite folks). It's not your looks! Yes, you are a very attractive woman (no, I'm not jealous, I truly appreciate beauty).
You just have t*ts, so weirdos are totally drawn to that. And you responded, and weirdos REALLY love that. Then you were offended, then they just blew their wad! That's how the internet works. Get used to it. It's not about you (or us, or anyone unfortunate enough to be the target of someone's affection).0 -
You're a woman on the internet, you can look like a pile of dookie and desperate weird dudes will still message you.
Yes, it's pretty gross that guys have no sense of boundaries or act like ridiculous psychopaths when someone doesn't return their unwarranted attention, but acting like that creepy attention means anything beyond the men being weirdos is where you're turning delusional.
Also, you're overestimating your attractiveness, maybe that's ****ish to say, but if you're going to go on an internet forum and start parading around your inflated ego, people are going to try to reduce it because you look like a tool.0 -
:laugh: Thank you all for bumping this, otherwise I would have missed out on this entertaining gem.0

Um, we need to put this subject to bed. On the net, people hide behind fake personas and names and feel they can say anything. Block them and move on! Problem solved. More than likely, they are major a DB in real life and here it's upped because there are no boundaries. I am absolutely nothing to look at and I still get them, we all do.
Let it go........0 -

Yes, be defiant against growing up. Fight the man.

Yet according to a post on another thread you say you are insecure and don't ever feel pretty...0 -

I have a feeling she is quite familiar with that!

This thread is depressing in the context of #yesallwomen.
A young woman was turned on by a man whose unwanted advances she rejected - and SHE is the one getting grief?
Some a'y'all need to reconnect with reality.
Seriously.0 -

right!! My kife is so hard people stewreotype me because I'm beautiful. Its so hard on me...
stereotyping you how??? lmao i feel a blonde joke coming on0 -
Honestly, this just looks like an attention-seeking post. "It's so hard to be so good-looking!"
And no, it's not victim-blaming. The guy was obviously a ****. But this looks like someone fishing for compliments.0 -
This thread
delivers.0 -
You're lucky OP. I have to post about bjs and backdoor before I get creepy messages.

I'm sorry, I don't see victim blaming at all. I see people who said it wasn't okay and gave her tips on how to avoid these types of things in the future.
Along with a little poking at her frequent assertions of her beauty. What happened to her wasn't amusing - the way she chose to present it, was.
Now if people had said "yeah, you shouldn't be posing like that in your avatar if you don't want to be hit on" - THAT would be victim blaming.0
