Beauty

I got this from a roommate:
Take the prettiest woman you can think of, stick her in front of any mirror, and the words (or thoughts) out of her are, "Oh, I look ugly. I don't like my skin/hair/butt." Take the same mirror and stick an overweight bald man, and his first reaction is to point at his reflection with both hands saying, "Heeeeey, looking good!"

Anecdotal, yes, but is it still true? I've realized recently that it might be true of women without exception. You think that the exceptions are the really beautiful women that seem very confident in themselves and their bodies; the women that know that they're beautiful.

Well, the truth is that those women don't exist. The women you think are that way really just have learned that other people think they're beautiful. They don't actually believe it themselves.

gay v-day

I am so glad its Valentines day again. The one day when all the couples in the world pretend to be in love. I'm pretty sure that love is found only on Valentines day. The other 364 days of the year, we can all just go back to hating our partners, and planning how we can survive till next Valentines day without smothering our partner in their sleep with the decorative pillow that everyone hates. I'm so thankful that Hallmark and Sees invented this great holiday, where couples must buy each other material items in order to show how much they are in love for one day.
Because we all know it, when you are in love the only way to show it is with fancy diamonds, and a rolex.
