vertigocidic Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 You should talk. You were on here bragging about how you were rated second in hotness 100 women in a club. And I'm the one being un-modest? Good call, famous! No matter how naturally beautiful a person is, there's room for improvement. It's up to the individual to decide at what level they're willing to settle. From the posts you've put up, I can picture you as a very, very attractive woman. Excercising? Sure. Hair dyes? Why not, free world. Surgery? That's when we should seriously consider; Do we really have to go that far to achieve that perfection? I have everyone know, that at 5"5', 120 pounds, and having a very slight pooch, I still have issues in reguarding of my body just like any other women out there. I have experimented so much with my looks- Hair highlights, colored eye contacts, false lashes, fake fake things... And then I dyed back my original, soft black hair and looked at myself hard in the mirror and told myself, "You go under the knife, you might as well serve your soul to the devil." Back to the arm-candy women... I've seen them before. And quite frankly I am afraid of them, lol! But they will never make me feel far superior because I've got something that they all don't- the ability to find about 1000 flaws on my body and not cry over it. Not saying they're like that, but hey, maybe most of them are like that from the way they look.
bigmanpayne Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I don't think most cool, down to earth guys put up with super high maintenance, drama oriented girls regardless of how hot they are. Most of the guys I date and have dated would never put up with drama. yeah, so you say!

Not saying they're like that, but hey, maybe most of them are like that from the way they look. For myself, I draw the line at cosmetic surgery or needles of any kind like botox. Botox is a form of botulism which makes me cringe. Each person defines their line. Sure, I have flaws that I've left "as is". This doesn't mean I can't improve on things I want to improve on. It's a total win/win when you lead a healthy and disciplined lifestyle. Exercise and healthy eating habits makes me feel great physically and mentally. When I feel stress building up from my job, you'll find me working out in some way, more often and at a more aggressive pace. The byproduct of this is that as a 33 year old, I still have no cellulite.
porter218 Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Talk about misogyny... You see a beautiful person and have to rip her down? Why? You have no idea what her IQ is, or what her talents are, or if she is deeply caring or trustworthy. You do not know what kind of life she led, or what problems she has overcome. You see a woman walking and assume she is stupid? Come on... I just find it amusing when people make such assumptions about me. Little do they know I started and run my Hs company all on my own between my own 2 careers. It is really interesting how hair color and tan level can indicate your IQ:rolleyes:. Maybe if I bleach my skin and die my hair brown my IQ will increase??

Athlon Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I think there is a bit of a conquest thing going on here. It might even be a question of demonstrating prowess to other men i.e. you want this woman but I got her. How many guys actually marry the arm candy?
lovestruck818 Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I'm an arm candy kind of woman and I have trouble keeping relationships...I also am apparantly someone men don't want to marry. Being attractive is such a curse.
Trialbyfire Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 How many guys actually marry the arm candy? All five of my serious relationships ended with a proposal. I married and divorced the final guy. What that means, who knows, except yes, they do marry arm-candy.
djhall Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Can't honestly say I read all the prior posts, so I may be repeating or off-topic or something, but: Attractiveness catches the initial interest. You walk past an ordinary girl and you don't know if she is the coolest person or earth or utterly annoying so nothing really spurs the interest to find out. On the other hand, you pass an attractive woman and the attractiveness catches your attention, so maybe you make an effort to try to get to know her better. Even if the contents turn out to be diappointing, at the very least you can enjoy the packaging for a while. Being with an attractive woman gets you noticed by other attractive women. Go to a bar alone and see how many attractive women take notice of you. Go back with a gogreous woman on your arm and watch all the attractive women notice, wonder what it about you that got you )_her_, and see how many of them try to pull your attention away from her. Similarly, attractive women tend to have attractive friends. She might not be the one for you, but she might get you noticed by someone who is and would otherwise never have given you a second glance. Being with an attractive woman is an ego boost. Yes, its shallow, but it is undeniably fun to walk around with a hot woman and watch the jealousy and amiration from other guys. This is obviously more appealing the less self-esteem you have. The dumb thing actually works pretty well for some guys. Lets face it, not all guys are rocket scientists, and its easier for alot of guys to date a girl who makes them feel superior than one who makes them feel ignorant or stupid. Personally... I like arm candy as much as the next guy, but for me "I'm hot, I know it, now beg for my attention", "I'm like, so totally hot... right, no wait.. yeah, that's right, hot, hehe", and "Don't I look great with my fake tan, my expensive hairdo, my designer clothes, my perfectly manicured nails, and my half a gallon of makeup I spent half the day appying with a trowel" just really ruin everything instantly. Looks don't make up for a bad personality or stupidity.

Trialbyfire Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 NO cellulite? You have got to tell me your secrets! Nothing much besides always eating healthy, no fast food, rarely junk food, maybe a bag of chips a year, primarily baked veggie style ones, no soft drinks, no candy, consistent exercising since I was a kid (currently working out 5 - 7 days a week with yoga/pilates combination anywhere from 20 to 45 minutes, sometimes up to an hour lately, subsidized by walking, hiking, swimming, etc.). As a kid, I was far more active. Oh, and I snack on raw veggies and fruit, intaking less or equal calories than output.
Lizzie60 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 I strongly believe that cellulite has nothing to do with anything.. it's all about your 'genes' IMO. I am 56 and hardly have any cellulite.. I am just starting on my thighs... I've seen women much much younger with lots of cellulite.. skinny or fat.. there is no difference..

Hahaha, I'm just pulling strings. But yeah, I am quite careful of what I eat... sometimes. I just drank a can of Yoohoo. I know, I'm terrible!

I am 56 and hardly have any cellulite.. I am just starting on my thighs... I've seen women much much younger with lots of cellulite.. skinny or fat.. there is no difference.. I've seen the back of your thighs in pics, and yes, you do have cellulite. It's not all genes. Cellulite becomes more obvious, the more fat it stores. If you keep yourself lean, it will not show up as much. Also, if you keep yourself fit, it will not show up as much. Fat cells don't multiply past puberty unless you gain a crap load of weight. Conceptually, if you raise children on healthy diets since babyhood, they won't have as many fat cells as the couch potato, junk food kids. As kids, we snacked on pre-cut fresh veggies and fruit, not candy and chips. Mom made decent and healthy, low-fat meals, with lean meats and tons of veggies. We didn't carb overdose as children and continue not to as adults.

But yeah, I am quite careful of what I eat... sometimes. I just drank a can of Yoohoo. I know, I'm terrible! Everything in low moderation. I rarely crave junk. It doesn't mean I don't indulge once in awhile but barely if rarely. Trail mix, dried fruit or nuts are more interesting, than just plain crap with no nutritional value. Take a look at the back of a bag of chips one day. Most are somewhere between 16 - 25% fat! On average 23% fat content. That's how I stop myself. I look at the back of the bag and get grossed out.

lovestruck818 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Yikes, you're far more extreme than I am. It's just not appetizing though. I lost 40lbs in 6 months time...obv I am doing something right. I am at the perfect weight now. I was much too heavy before. The 5 minutes of something that tastes good isn't worth the consequences of putting back on any weight. I eat a lot of tofu as well, lol.

If you did it in a healthy way, your body won't go back as long as you continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Don't be surprised if you put a bit back, since you lost it so fast.
vertigocidic Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 I am taking a culinary class and we are currently discussing about the food group. Eating healthy is great and all, but can't we have a little bit, erm, excitement to our plates? Like, mixing vegetables with dairy? I'm afraid that one day I might have a mental breakdown and rush out to the nearest Seven Eleven for Dorritos. Ooooooh, those dorritossssss! And I do have cellulites. And I am a pretty young lady, so this embarrasses me all too well.
Trialbyfire Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Cooking, one of my favourite hobbies. Of course you can have some fat but eat healthy fat, like olive oil.
