#EverydayLookism

Story 912

Growing up, people stopped being direct when it comes to showing they didn't appreciate your appearance. However you could understand it based on their attitude. What really struck me especially is how male behaviour changed towards me as I became pretty. Before I learned how to take care of my hair, had a still "unharmonious" face, [...] guys were ignoring me. When we were in a group conversation, they kept talking to my pretty friends, not looking at me, not answering whenever I was talking. As my face became closer to beauty standards, I suddenly got a growing attention and guys kept trying to seduce me, always listening, always agreeing to whatever I had to say. That made me feel completely sick. It seemed to me I only existed whenever they had interest in sleeping with me.
