IT was that part that got me..
I felt if that comment were made about any other quality of which someone had no control, it probably wouldn't have been made.
Looks seem to be the last moderately allowable prejudice. Oh to have the unmitigated gall of being born plain..
or to stay in love with someone who is plain, when you could trade her in for a newer younger model...
That being said, I really do enjoy reading your posts they are vibrant and witty, like I said it was this one that struck a nerve.And no I'm not bitter, I'm fortunate enough to not
need a "bag" I also know I'm going to age, and not get whistled at anymore.
I think women with substance, brains, confidence and who support other women are very sexy, whether they take 'pretty' pictures or not.
I'm glad there are men out there who can see that too.
