Why do Pretty Girls have Low Self Esteem and critique themselves often?

[slick635235]

Is it normal for my girlfriend to say the following all the time? My teeth are too small. My ears and nose is too big. I am unproportional. I have a big ass. My breasts are too small. My legs are too thick. I can go on and on. Well, anyway, I would always give her reassurance that she looked fine. What are your problems, pretty ladies?

VERY simple:

Through years and years of societal pressure and attention addiction, these women feel like their entire self worth lies in their looks.

It's not something that gets reversed or "fixed" overnight.

they criticize themselves often so that we can compliment them and give them attention,

they dont actually think what they say they just find random shit to bitch about so we cna make them feel good

Here's my suggestion...continue to beat them down.

Either they'll realize how stupid that type of thinking it when they hear it verbalized from someone else OR they'll commit suicide and prevent that type of moronic thinking to continue. Either way..win / win.

look at all the hot chicks that post almost completely naked pics of themselves on myspace and then bitch about getting "too much" attention from guys... i mean WTF did they expect...

or girls on this site that have half naked pictures or links to said pictures in their sig... i mean fuckin COME ON....

the only ones i would exclude from that on this site are the ones that really work out and have done great things with their bodies (the short one for instance) and i exclude them because, 1-they appreciate the compliments, 2-there is a lot more to them, than just the pictures... there is a lot of hard work and time that went into their bodies... not just naked pics of some fake tits and a thong.

It's the noncritical girls that fall behind. The ones that take the time and energy into their looks usually reap the benifits of their labor. When you work hard to achieve something you will work just as hard to maintain it. I will take a 'high maintenance' chick over some tree hugging nappy haired granola whore any day.

She's asking for reassurance from you. She needs you to tell her "No you're beautiful h oney" because she is insecure.

What she said. All the compliments in the world will go unheard while a singular rude comment will echo in her head forever.

Hopefully as she matures and realizes that her worth lies not in her external beauty she will no longer seek so much reassurance.

Gisele: 'I'm Past It'

Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen is mourning for her youth, insisting men are no longer interested in her because she is over 25.

The former love of Leonardo DiCaprio fears she may have lost the nubile charms she had as a teenager, because flirtations feel like a thing of the past.

She says, "I definitely feel that I had more men hitting on me in the past. When I was younger, maybe 15 or 16, for sure.

"Maybe I am not as good-looking? I don't know. Maybe my age has started showing? I take off my sunglasses and I'm 25."
