Do you think you're attractive?

I've never thought of myself as "attractive", but every now and then I've been told by others that I am. I am satisfied with my looks, just happy that my body is in great working order.

I agree with Decker. I'm not conventional by any means so it's hard for me to compare to the standard "beautiful" woman. A lot of people don't see super short hair as beautiful, and my hair is suuuper short (and shaved on the sides). I don't have big boobs like a lot of people see as beautiful (and is one of my biggest insecurities). I guess I could say I don't have the best self esteem, but I don't hate myself. I'm in the process of improving my body so I can hopefully not feel like a walrus anymore

Well I'm not butt ugly, but I am not a Angelina Jolie either.
I feel like I have a nice face structure but other things make it ugly.
For example, I have perfect straight teeth without ever having braces but they're kinda yellow. I also have a nice face but it's bumpy and discolored. Same with my eyes. I have nice eyes, but I have the WORST dark circles ever!
But oh well....

Maybe it's a bit arrogant, but I think I'm quite attractive. My best feature is definitely my eyes. I have really bright and unique looking blue eyes and combined with long dark hair, people definitely notice. I've been stopped on the street my whole life with people complimenting me on my eyes. When I was a toddler, people would actually stop my mom when she was with me. I think she was always worried that someone was gonna try to kidnap me or something.

Now that I'm at my ideal weight, the attention is actually becoming a bit troublesome. I get stared at wherever I go, I get hit on all the time, and worst of all I get judged at various work and sport functions. Being a young, attractive woman in a male-dominated technical field is quite difficult to be honest. Same with being involved in super outdoorsy sports like mountain/rock climbing/etc.

I feel like after having worked as a makeup artist in the past that everyone most definitely has something attractive about their physical features. That being said, there are also super beautiful people out there that have horrible attitudes and it doesn't matter how pretty they are...pretty is as pretty does.

Also, I get stared at a lot too...but again, I live in downtown San Diego and there are a lot of weird people here haha. Just today someone took a picture of me with his cell phone while sitting at the intersection I was walking across. Weird.

Not normally. Sometimes I'll get a confidence boost and think I look good but the fact that when I go out I'm still the heavy one after all the weight i've lost is hugely discouraging.

nope

I have my off-days, like everyone else, but for the most part I love how I look. There are certain features I love about myself no matter what my mirror tells me the rest of my body looks like. For example, I love my ridiculously long hair and my eyes.

I'd like to think I'm attractive....doesn't matter what anyone else thinks as long as I feel attractive.

It feels great when other people do notice and comment that you look good too.

I sometimes have my off days but everyone does.

Very.

Depends on how I feel that particular day I guess

No, I really don't. I have always struggled with self esteem. I think I am passable. My husband gets upset with me sometimes about it because he thinks otherwise.

I found it interesting how many people answered based on what other people have told them or their comparisons to others. (Not judging what that means, just observing because it's what I do.) It's something to think about.

This is an awesome question! It's very interesting reading every body's answers.

I do think I'm beautiful! Even at my heaviest, I feel pretty. I have always attracted a lot of attention....I don't know if I just look really friendly and approachable, but it boosts my ego, lol. I don't like my body at this point, but I hope that will change.

I think I'm pretty average
