Personally, I do not consider my self to be extremely attractive nor extremely unattractive...though I do recognize that I have a youthful appearance that is somewhat pleasing to the eye.
As for other females: I fail to comprehend their obsession with appearance (which may the root of my current isolation), though I respect their interests and indulge in their fancies from time to time. For example: I almost never wear makeup and believe that people look so much better without it. I do, however, allow my friends to play "dress up" with me from time to time. They (both the said females and other neurotypicals) swear that I look like a super model with a cosmetic-smeared face. Personally, I think the makeup makes me look hideous. Basically, I put up with their obsessions with attractiveness, and they tolerate my apathy towards it.

I've had girls want to put makeup on me and I'm a dude. They can't help themselves? idk...

I've been told by a few people (mostly friends, but some not) that I'm really quite pretty, but I don't think I am. I think it's because no-one asks me out.

I have been told that I am very pretty, but I really don't care. I am not interested in a relationship, and I spent a good deal of energy in middle school convincing boys that I have no desire whatsoever to date at this point in my life. People tell me that I look great with my hair out and should wear makeup, but the former is impractical for school purposes, and the latter makes me itch, so I refrain from doing either.

I cannot comprehend my classmates' obsession with makeup for the life of me, and prefer that people look natural.

I consider myself attractive very much so. I wear women's clothes, I wear makeup and all that. All of that stuff is very important to me.

I will add another question onto this: what do you think of interacting with other girls? They are, after all, probably far more emotional and appearances based.

this is a false, sexist assertion. it may be true in some cases but certainly not gospel

Being attractive does not concern me, so I guess that there is a high probability that I am not.

Precisely! I, however, can't wear makeup anyways because of my severe eczema. Some days I'm able to cover up the horrible red blotches but other days everyone is asking me how I managed to get a "sunburn" in Oregon; the most rainiest and damp state in all of the country, I must say.

Amen. I have a lot of rosacea on my arms and legs, and people think I have a sunburn as well.

I live in Oregon too! They should know better! :lol:

Eh, I don't think about it much. Appearances are not that high on my 'to do list', but I do want to wear more fashionable and artistic clothing to fit my style. As for make up, I just put on cover-up, tweeze/get my eyebrows waxed when needed, and just rely on natural looks.

Although I am quite often told that I am attractive. I just go along with what those people have been saying although I may not always feel attractive.

Yes, or at least I find myself handsome enough for me, if that makes sense.

I used to be incredibly worried about my appearance, convinced that I was ugly and fat and worthless and stupid-looking, etc. etc. Anyway, I've slowly changed my mindset since then to accept that although I'm never exactly going to be pretty, I can get away as average. I've also recently started allowing myself to dress/look the way I want and not try to conform to others' ideas of beauty- no make-up, jeans and hoodies are fine.
