I was just reading through this thread, and I think this post belongs in the "best of Inky" section.Inkara1 said:I can see your point. There have been some real bitches, and some evil bitches that make the lower-level bitches look like saints, that I would still have nailed faster than you could say "Ambesol" if given the chance for some hot, no-strings-attached sex. I wouldn't want them around after I finished up, of course.

EVERYONE is beautiful to SOMEONE. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just because someone is not beautiful in the sense of what society pushes on us through the media does NOT mean they are not beautiful in their own way. THEY should think they are because SOMEBODY out there also thinks they are.
I'm big...I don't always think I'm beautiful (but sometimes I do) and a lot of other people don't think I am...but Chris ALWAYS thinks I am and everyone, no matter if they're a cyclops with a humpback, deserves to have someone love them like that and to beable to feel they'r ebeautiful.
Luis G said:Been told that before, it doesn't change my line of thinking.
Why should people believe something that isn't true? It is no different from telling a white guy he's black or telling a black guy he's white, or that they are black/white in some way or they are black/white to someone, that sure would help minorities feel accepted.
Call a spade a spade, but then again, whatever floats your boat.
Nixy said:Don't tell me that *I* am being affected by the media. Either you have been affected by the media into believing their is only ONE type of beauty or you just think like them naturally...either way...it is you who has the same mind set as the media (I speak of the MAJORITY of th emedia, there is SOME exposure now a days for "accept people for who they are"...like the website that started this thread...)
