    didn't read the article, but there is no wayi could do it, i need to do my hair and put my makeup on every day, i think that would be kinda difficult with no mirror!

    I even look at my reflection in any surface that reflects it. I may be a tad vain... ;)

    Absolutely not. When I was a teenager I would avoid the mirrors at all costs. Back then I had no idea how to make myself look beautiful. Right now I feel like I have learnt to like myself, and can't stop checking myself out in the mirror :-)

    I can't even go on my 5 min walk commute to work without looking in the windows of the buildings! I don't think I'm vain, maybe just paranoid or habit. :embarassed:

    Not at all, why would anyone do that?

    What a mess one would be.

    I can put on some makeup without a mirror but doing my hair, contacts etc...requires it...plus I still like what I see.

    Some researchers says I only have about 5 more years of liking what I see before age takes over.

    Hahaha yeah right. I am one of the lowest maintenance females you will meet (no makeup, super short hair) and I still need a mirror every day. For starters, if I can't check I will leave the house with Alfalfa hair, and that look is just not good on anyone who isn't a boy under the age of 10. Also, I refuse to leave the house in any outfit that I have not approved in a full length mirror. What if my underwear print shows through my pants or something?? Nooo thanks.

    You are so behind the times. Underwear went out of style years ago! :tongue:

    I'm an old fogey like that. I still wear a bra, too. Craziness, I tell ya, but I'm stuck in my ways :tongue:
