    I walk around with a cut-out of Ryan Gosling's face and tape it onto mine.

    Not gonna lie that's kinda creepy

    but cheaper than ryan gosling's real face

    But isn't it always best to have the real thing

    Very, very fortunate to have been raised with a dad who daily boosted the self-esteem of my sisters and I. The most loving, caring, thoughtful and selfless man on the planet. Because of this, I don't ever feel unattractive. I don't think I'm super hot or anything, but I never feel badly about my appearance.

    That's awesome! I'm trying to do the same for my girls.

    I never considered myself much of a head turner. :/

    I've been feeling this way for the last couple days..
    I've been mulling over things in my mind but ultimately for me, i decided that i can't change my genetics and even though i put in 2 years of hard work to lose weight, a smaller waist does not make ugly less ugly and im working on trying to accept that about myself, if i can do that maybe it won't bother me as much, i think my expectations of myself losing weight were just way too high.

    It's funny but as a teenager I thought skinny meant beautiful. As an adult I don't think that at all.

    @ Kasner1975: Beards are like anything else...some women love them, some do not. You look good in a beard. Not many men can pull off no hair and a full beard, but it suits you. I am a sucker for a beard...

    Probably that would be so much less creepy if my profile pic weren't a sky view through tree branches! :p But I just verified something that I think I knew but maybe didn't really believe. That men are just as insecure about their looks as women are. But what we keep forgetting is that most people are so busy feeling bad about themselves that they never even notice other people's flaws. That, in and of itself makes me feel so much better...

    Nothing is working for me today... but I did just finish my almost-run and feel pretty good because I never thought I'd be able to do it.

    You guys are all so beautiful! It makes me so sad that we all feel so badly about ourselves :( ask yourself if you've been kind to everyone you've encountered today. If the answer is yes then you are absolutely beautiful in my book. Keep your head up guys you're all a 10 in my eyes <3

    Physical beauty is nice but I have met some pretty people who are incredibly ugly human beings...there are so many qualities beyond the physical that make people attractive to me.

    I remember one of my profs in college, by no means physically attractive by typical standards, but he was so incredibly intelligent & funny that I was completely enamored with him...I thought he was hot!
