Women hate me because I'm *too* beautiful

Well although I found that woman to be distinctly average looking and but her article makes her ugly on here are very rude about Brits.
As a Brit who at 30 has no dental cavities I'm offended, just because we aren't big on veneers but really aren't they just the same as fake boobs? Plus they make people look like horses. Plus a great number of people in the U.S. are of British descent anyway.0 -
she looks good for a brit.
uh oh.. pot has been stirred.
crap, i was afraid someone was going to go there... it's true, unfortunately, cept for MFP, I have lots of hot brit friends on MFP.
I think brits purposely put the ugly women on TV.... although i don't know why..... theories?
Omg! I don't think so... And I watch a few British Shows... Merlin, Doctor Who... Well ok, only two right now (besides Top Gear that has no female stars)...0 -
I'm British and honestly, she's not even average looking.
Myself, I'm more beautiful than she is, but I also have pride and independence and never ever accept handouts from men. If I want something I purchase it from my own salary and personally, I think that's a healthier way to live.
EDIT Some women don't like me, but only the type of women I'd not be interested as having as a friend anyway. A certain type of woman does not like me because, my being an engineer and having "bloke hobbies" I know a lot of men purely as friends and some women find that hard to deal with. That's okay though, I find jealous insecure women to be tedious company.

Clearly you all also proved her point.
Arrogance may not be attractive, but neither is anything else being said about this person in this thread.0 -
"Too Beautiful"................what f@cking mirror is she looking in?? She's a minger!!!
The girl next door to me is more attractive than she is!! She must be "open all hours" is all I can say........I can;t see what men would shower her with gifts etc, and make women jealous......she doesn't make me feel jealous of her looks.....I'm prettier than she is!! lol0 -
Or women don't like her because she says *kitten* like "women don't like me because I'm sooo pretty."
^ probably this
but can we not bash the way she looks? whhhyyyy do we constantly have to tear each other down0 -
Lady, you don't need to try... I think you've got it down to a fine art!Think about it...she's British....she's very attractive for a woman...over there....she has white teeth to start off...huge plus.....not trying to be rude
BTW...Teeth are not meant to be WHITE.
I think the majority of comments on this message thread have proved Brick's point... talk about B*I*T*C*H*Y !!!
Then again, I'm from the UK.. I must be so hideous to all you perfect peeps over the pond. I think I'll go away and hide in my dilapidated castle until some pretty prince comes and rescues me and sends me on Extreme Makeover to become a Stepford Husband!0 -
I have exactly the same problem. LMAO :laugh:0

now this is a hot brit.

This was a really interesting article to read. Here is the original: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2124246/Samantha-Brick-downsides-looking-pretty-Why-women-hate-beautiful.html
It's not even about a woman saying this versus a man saying this. It's admitting that she knows she is beautiful and uses it to her advantage. Even though we all think it it's something to say it.
We can't tell her personality based on her photos. There are a few other photos of her in the article and I honestly don't think she's anything special. Just average I would say, which leads me to believe that it is more of her personality that attracts this attention, and her personality makes her prettier?
I honestly have disliked women because they're pretty. I'll admit it.
I'll say I'm a plain Jane and that I have had to be smart and funny to attract attention. I've never had a boyfriend, or even been kissed, even though I'm a really nice person. But people who are flighty, ditzy or annoying that I know have had that stuff because they're pretty. It does upset me some.
There are times where I'll be talking to a guy and a really pretty girl walks in and I think "forget it, I'll never have a chance with him" and just walk away.0 -
There is a fine line between confidence and conceit and yes...she crossed it!
Confidence is sexy!
Conceit is a major turn off!0 -
She has under forearm fat, that's a deal breaker there. how do you even get that?
Ok, seriously...had to pause and check to see if I have under forearm fat.
Nope! (whew...tough crowd)
I should have phrased that better, I mean she has loose under forearm skin, like a batwing but on her forearm instead of her upper arm.
Oh no, I knew exactly what you were saying! I still had to check though. I am not one of those women who stares in the mirror all day, so I honestly didn't know. lol :bigsmile:0 -
She's must put out. That's all I can think of.
Exactly THAT..whilst her co-workers do not.0 -
Completely agree. A lot of women HATE when they think another woman feels prettier than she actually is (in their opinion). This is blatantly obvious across the entire thread.Clearly you all also proved her point.
Arrogance may not be attractive, but neither is anything else being said about this person in this thread.0 -
hahah ...i needed that laugh....0
-
she's not FUGLY or anything....but she's also not someone that I would look twice at. I asked my husband if he thought that she was pretty (without explaining the article) first thing he said was "ewww....snaggle tooth".0

Friends don't let friends read The Daily Mail.0

I'm just relaying my observations. There are less overweight people as a percentage there then there are here. I think the stats bear this out.
If there are more than a few exceptions to the rule.. then the rule is crap.... and quite a chunk of the british population is overweight
There are exceptions to every rule. It's not all bad actually. I saw a lot fewer overweight people when I was over there. When I saw the portions they serve in restaurants, I understood at least one reason why.Think about it...she's British....she's very attractive for a woman...over there....she has white teeth to start off...huge plus.....not trying to be rude
Of course not. How could ethnically based stereotyping ever be considered rude?
I have beautiful teeth. I'm British. Does that boggle your mind entirely?0 -

Meh, people wouldn't harp on Brits so much for "having bad teeth" if they came to the backwoods of our own country where there are so many chemicals and minerals in the drinking water that peoples teeth are stained brown... I know quite a few people with "brown" teeth and it wasn't completely for a lack of dental hygiene (though that definitely contributed)...0 -
She looks good for her age and even if you dont agree, there is no need to make fun of her teeth and appearance. This is exactly what she is talking about and proves how vicious women can be. She isnt attacking you or putting down you, it seems she was just writing about her experience.0

Your defeated attitude is the thing which is holding you back. :flowerforyou:0 -

Quoted them both, b/c I couldn't decide which I liked better.0 -
Confidence plays a HUGE role in that... Clearly this woman is confident, and other people have picked up on that. Men find her attractive because she finds her self to be attractive.This was a really interesting article to read.

You are not "plain jane", your self image just needs some tuning! When you acknowledge your own beauty, others will too.
Also, I really appreciate the honesty in your response.0 -
she has the "crazy eyes" for sure.
Totally.0 -
Besides all this debate, the OP is a "pot stirrer", so you have probably made his day. Unless he is crying somewhere in a corner b/c his thread has been hijacked by logic.0

Wow thats you not trying to be rude?0 -
she looks good for a brit.

i was thinking torchwood, mighty boosh, skins (british version), the one with the kids that get superpowers when struck by lightening.... dammit, i forget the name, i'd remember if any of their shows lasted LONGER THAN 3 SEASONS.... wth is with that? soon as I get into it they cancel the show.... oh, found it! Misfits! And Being Human!
i love british tv0 -

Depends what part of Britain you were in, no where near as much obesity as America but sadly Scotland has the highest levels of obesity in Europe ):0 -

I think we might just tend to put people on TV that can act rather than idiots that just look good.0
