My conversation with my boyfriend before writing this blog:
Me: Would you say I'm hot?
Him: No
Me (after I gave him the 'oh buddy you just made a big mistake' stare): why not?
Him: You're cute, but that's better than hot.
Me: What do you mean?
Him: Well, cute is datable and hot is hit it and quit it.
If these hot girls are just purely for 'hit it and quit it;' and they know it; what is even the point of the extra make up, the short skirts and breast implants? Women do it because it's horrible to be the 'ugly' girl. Women are trying to be perfect for that one night, to be accessible. Short skirts are accessible and that's just what men are looking for.
Women need to start living for women. I know that I've been in the spot of making myself look better to get a guys attention. But, I've also been in a relationship for three and a half years. I know how amazing it feels to have someone look forward to see you in the morning, so matter if you have bed head and bags under your eyes. I think there's a better chance of a guy being disgusted by the one night stands morning look then the boyfriend of three years. I know it's hard to listen to someone say that you look beautiful when your whole look just doesn't look for you. Pop culture is something that every woman tries to live up to, but it's also something that hinders are ability to love our real self. I real self under the layers of make up and the too short skirts in our closet. The real jeans and t shirts us. We need to look past pop culture and love our true selves.

After reading this I asked my boyfriend the same thing and he responded the same way. I've also been with my boyfriend for three and a half years and I completely agree with what you said about how it feels to be able to wake up in the morning and for it to truly not matter what you look like.
ReplyDeleteI was reading your blog and I liked everything you said but this sentence caught my attention, “I know it's hard to listen to someone say that you look beautiful when your whole look just doesn't look for you.” I always thought why most of us want to hear the word “you look beautiful” even though when we are not. For me it’s hard to listen to someone saying you look nice or whatever when I know that I am not, but I don’t think it’s the case for most people most of the time. Most women want to hear that they look good or they are hot rather than hearing they look “ugly”. I think it’s really hard for most people to hear and accept that they are ugly when they hear it from other people even though they know it for themselves. But it always makes me wonder why we get so excited and happy only when we hear good things about us and hate or don’t want to hear or get offended when someone tells us we look bad or ugly even though it’s the truth…..hummmmmm
