Pretty girls, do you find annoying all the attention that you get? If a guy randomly compliments your looks on the street, do you enjoy it?

I find it very annoying indeed my young padawan.

>> No.6439358

most guys don't have to balls to make a complement so of course they enjoy it
however most guys are needy faggots who want something in return. the come from an inferior frame and put the girl on a pedestal which is the most unattractive thing ever. this is why "nice guys" get friend zoned. you need to set a man to woman interaction instead of tying to be friends first.

>> No.6439369

They find it annoying unless you are at least semi-attractive and then leave her alone afterwards.

>> No.6439642

I like it when they're attractive, and not rude about it, as in, I rather hear "Your smile made my day" then "DAMN gurl I liek yo ass"...

Also, don't like it when people ask me out and don't get the hint when I say no, wait 3 months and ask me out again.

I also find it awkward to turn people down so when I'm talking to guys I try to find subtle ways to mention my boyfriend, such as "Oh, my boyfriend'sin the same program!" or something like that.

I don't think you have to be pretty to get attention. I've gotten everything from "You are exactly the type of woman I want to marry" to "Yo girl wanna fuck my dog" and "You 18? Ever been spitroasted?"

You sound like a tool. Have you lived life or just read the feminist newspapers?

Women don't like to be harassed or feel threatened but yes, they enjoy compliments like it's a drug. They're addicted to it, literally: http://mashable.com/2012/12/15/social-media-brain/

Models who use twitter love to favorite random tweets from strangers complimenting them. Check out Andie Arthur or Cora Keegan's twitter, half their favorites is just that, all comments along the lines of "I love you", "you're so pretty", "I want to impregnate you", etc.

I don't mind the compliments. I compliment people too if I think they look nice. Nothing creepy, just a simple statement like, "You have a very nice face." or "You have aesthetic proportions."

Not too odd at an art school. We all know aesthetics so it's a language we can all speak and understand without thinking it means YO I WANT YO D

I do mind the harassment though - guys being pushy, touching my legs, smacking my ass, forcing themselves on me, etc., etc. I don't want to believe guys are pigs but I've seen a disappointing amount of evidence pointing at the fact they are.

But so are women, so whatever.

I don't mind because being the benefit of being attractive and young far outweighs the cons. Random compliments can be odd but are usually better laughed off than getting annoyed by them. Recently an older biker guy at a bar just put up his hands in a "10" when I walked by and it was off putting but not all that annoying I just nodded and kept on walkin'. I think the attention that comes with being strikingly unattractive would be more annoying.

i get embarrassed easily by it.

when strange girls compliment me in public, it's usually like, "your hair is so pretty!, i like your outfit!, you look like you came from a runway! (i'm tall enough for that, i guess)"

with guys, it's usually slack-faced staring, leering, or when they're in groups, i'll get, "EY!, EY GIRL!," or whistling or tongue-clicking like they're addressing an animal. i dunno if they do that to prove to their friends that they're dangerously heterosexual or what, but it always feels horrible.

the only times i haven't been uncomfortable when male strangers try to compliment me is when they're in close proximity, say it in a way that is polite and endearing (some examples for me have been, "i like that some people still dress up for going out!{that was an older guy}, i have a friend who dresses like that, too!, nice day to be out, isn't it?"), and they don't dwell on discussing their opinion of my appearance.

my recommendation: PLEASE DON'T DO IT to strangers, unless if you're in a situation where idle chatter is acceptable, and even then, proceed with caution. you bring any negative reaction upon yourself when you address a stranger about their appearance.

Yeah, exactly.

I've done my own share of piggish behaviour I'm not proud of, I've just experienced far more extreme and crass things from guys, so from my perspective, it seems like guys are more piggish.

But it's all relative. Regardless of what your view on it is, though, you just have to be more guarded. Learned this the hard way, unfortunately.

it means she is watching you because youre staring at her. wondering like "wtf why is this person staring at me"

learn to "see" people staring at you with your peripheral vision. if you're in a staring contest you'll never know. even then its still debatable. ok so for example i stopped looking at anyone in the eyes or face on the street but still sometimes i notice in my peripheral vision people looking at me. i don't flatter myself thinking "yeah must be because i'm attractive" no my internal monologue is "it's probably because i'm wearing all these weird clothes they've never seen before and they're just trying to wrap their minds around it, they probably think its weird and dumb." im also really tall so theres just the sheer fact that i'm a large object entering someone's field of vision, naturally getting attention, fleeting or not.

Objectively speaking I'm a 6/10, 7 on a very good day. A teeny bit above average. I get a lot of attention though, I think because I tend to smile often I seem more approachable. I've gotten a lot of weird compliments and awkward date proposals, and one time this guy talked at me for about 30 seconds before demanding me for a hug (actually followed me down the street for a block or so pleading with me). I guess those were the negative experiences. For the most part it's nice. I get a lot of free stuff.

It depends on the kind of attention. When people say nice things like "You're so pretty!" or "My goodness, you are beautiful!" or "You have a wonderful smile" that's pretty nice, assuming it doesn't really go farther than that.

Unpleasant attention is different. Like the dude in front of me at the grocery store who kept trying to look down my shirt. "Oh, I just need to look up and behind me for some reason ... and then down." Sexual shit, stuff shouted from cars, etc. is all definitely not flattering. Or the time the guy at the club stamping hands stamped mine a bunch of extra times and was like, "You don't really need that many, I just wanted to touch you longer." Creepy.

Reading this comments I feel like /fa has some sort of a mix of inferiority and superiority complexes. I notice you guys complain about how bad your features are and how horrible your genetics have screwed you and how you don't have a girlfriend. But then you say that you're a solid 7 or that you're attractive or that you find other people (who aren't attractive) attractive. Sometimes you guys boast about your model genetics but lack of height or some shit like that. Oh and your love of "high fashion" i.e. desert boots and raw jeans with the occasional obscure designer piece thrown in be it undercover or rick owens. It's just an observation it's not anything personal. I just think that you guys are odd to say the least. Oh and I can't forget the Madonna whore complex that seems to be shared by almost all of you. I honestly don't understand you guys.

/fa/ is not a hive mind, and the tendency to vacillate between self-love and self-loathing with such astonishing fluency is a very human one. Doubt and faith go hand in hand, remember?

I don't mind that much when a guy is like "excuse me, I just wanted to say that you are really pretty" because even though it's somewhat nerve wracking I can usually assume the guy has good intentions.

But more often it's like, some guy hollering at me from his Jimmy Johns delivery car like 'AY MAMI WAD IT DOO LEMME GET THAT NUMBA" or some scrubby motherfucker who's all "HELLOOo BEAUTIFUL WHY DON'T YOU SMILE"

It's hard explaining this to men because they they haven't experienced the female perspective. Obvi from your male perspective, if a random girl was like "oh you're a cutie" you probably wouldn't mind because you don't see her as a threatening being. Women have to be wary of male strangers tho bc they're usually physically stronger than we are and (at least in many parts of the US) sexual assault on the street is still common. Consequently, when a male stranger says something to insinuate that he deems our body desirable, we have an instinct to protect ourselves.

You ever notice how in interviews models always say that they were unpopular in high school? They always claim to be ugly ducklings, every single one.

>“I was never the prettiest girl in class. But I do have a look that works on image and on the catwalk.”

Other top models say the same, even VS angels. Raquel Zimmerman, Karolina Kurkova, Erin Heatherton, etc.

Several options come to mind:
1. Many models have a bit of an unconventional alien-like look (they aren't "classic all-American pretty), so they might have been very awkward children/teens
2. They had and still have horrible self-esteem, which explains their willingness to starve themselves and be exploited by the fashion-industry.

>FW: How about the pressure to be thin? That subject is never going to go
away.
>AR: No, I’m quite lucky in that I have a good metabolism, but I also eat really healthy
and I exercise. I do a lot of yoga and Pilates and I run. You know, the body of a girl
who’s a model, that’s her tool. You have to take care of it. It’s not even about being
slim or skinny but it’s more about being fit and the quality of the body and [that] the
skin is really nice. That’s super important. And now it’s a little bit changing, towards
curvier girls, so that’s a really nice change. But they get so caught up in the whole
weight thing. When you look at the world, people really die from being overweight,
that’s a much, much bigger issue than anorexia. And to be honest, there are a few
girls who are young who have difficulty dealing with their weight and what kind of diet.
But I think it’s a huge responsibility of the agency to take care of the girls and to kind
of lead them the right way.

Are they just terrified of the industry and doing good PR? Doubt that. Anja has called out Terry Richardson for his bullshit.

There's definitely some truth to your first point; the girls who end up being Miss Alabama or whatever are often hot as hell as soon as they hit puberty.

Pic related. I'd be surprised if she didn't get figuratively shat on in middle school for those lips, teeth, eyebrows, and that eye width. Now she has an interesting face, but kids are stupid; I remember making fun of a girl for having thick, "angry" eyebrows, which I now fucking love.

>>6446742
I can't remember any girls (in a HS of 4000+) who had any kind of classical beauty about them. Maybe there just weren't any around, but maybe that's the kind of thing that comes to light a little later than big titties (which I agree brought all the high school boys to the yard).

I don't think its feminine tripe. Yes, some people are naturally thin, so don't call "fat murrican" on me. Are there many people as naturally thin as runway models are now? I doubt it. I've been to residential for an eating disorder, so my radar is pretty strong. I think there is pressure to protect the industry. The "big dogs" may fare okay; the average girls, I do believe, are exploited, not only for pressure to be thin but being paid very poorly. But that's my opinion.

There's your answer. Too many of them live in the moment and are shortsighted with their goals. I don't even want to know how many girls have chosen modeling over going to university or a stable job just because they thought they could be the next Heidi or Giselle.

The smartest "models" only model part time and are rarely involved in anything major... most of the "models" I've met are students at my uni that shoot stuff with local photographers or are signed with a smaller agency... not the kind you'd see headlining the next Prada show.

It's like I'm not supposed to be polite either. Why? I can understand if someone's obviously just trying to get into someone's pants, but giving a dirty look over a compliment as if I'm not allowed to? Do I need to meet a criteria before I give one?

Getting shouted at on the street by a bunch of guys is just frustrating, do they honestly think that I'll turn around and start sucking their dicks or something?

Though like the others have said in the thread, a lot of it depends on WHAT they say, such as if someone said I had nice shoes or whatever then that's an opener for a conversation. Staring at my legs like you haven't eaten in days and moving to the back of the train when you're spotted just makes you look like an idiot

I personally find it so romantic when shitty boy racer cars pull up beside me and five total strangers start screaming that they want to fuck me.

I have a bitchy resting face apparently, so I get a lot of "You're so pretty, you should smile!". The next cunt who thinks my face is his business is getting glassed.

I get it less from women, but when it is women it's usually grannies. When I get it from men it's usually cunts who think they're clever.

I've never given a compliment to a stranger before, but I often smile and say "hi" to cute girls I pass. There's no point in saying "wow so beautiful" it sounds cheesy. And there's no point saying "I like ur dress" cause it sounds gay.

I feel like a smile and a hello is obvious enough that I'm saying "you're hot" while leaving something to the imagination.

When I get drunk I've been known to tip my invisible fedora and say "madam"

I sort of used to experience something like this myself when I was shy and more inwards. Whenever I did smile or laugh, I'd get told I have a nice smile and should smile more etc.

What is it about your face that makes it bitchy when it's neutral? What I've noticed is that it's often the eyebrows which make a person look more -- tense. Is this the case for you?

I get what you mean, I get that, with an added "I see you've cheered up!".
I think it's partly because my lips are quite full, so it's easy to look like a toddler pouting. People tell me I look bored and impatient when I'm not actively engaging with something/someone. I was once told that I look like I'm waiting for someone to answer and important question and they're talking shite.

I can't imagine how it would only be from your full lips. If you were to seem like you're pouting, your eyes (+ eyebrows) definitely come to play in the "emotion". I can't really figure out how to solve the issue here other than something about your eyes, because you'd just look odd if you were constantly doing something with your mouth.

cba read the whole thread, im a grill and get compliments alot. i mostly ignore them, when the guy insists on continuing i will most likely flipp him off. If a guy comes and talks with me, generally seems to be interested and then gives me a compliment, i gladly take it.
