Why do people ask if they're pretty?

Is it just me or is it getting really anoying all these people asking if they are pretty? There are so many posts about it. To everyone who wants to know if they are pretty... everyone is pretty in their own way now stop asking.

AMEN!

I agree
= ]

ditto

well people wouldn't ask if they are pretty if there weren't jerks out there that cut down people's self esteem and confidence.
not at all saying your one. just saying that that is the problem

Yeah...

The thing is, we can whinge and whine about how much "am I pretty?" posts get on our wicks, but it's not really going to stop people posting them. Especially when people keep giving "am I pretty" posters the type of answers that they want. I usually ignore these posts, but there have been a few times when I've thought to answer these "What do you think of me?" posts with "I think you're vain!"

But that'd be a bit mean, so I usually find it better for all if I zip it.

I agree there are way tooo many jerks in the world I dont know why men have to cut the women out in the world...

I agree with you

thank you!

People now have so low esteem because the think they need to look like these role models that the media is giving them!

It is old.. but also very sad!

People who ask other people if their pretty, just reallys wants a compliment.
Pathic if you ask me.

Everyone's unique in their own way.

Should we create a policy that says people can't post those anymore?

Same as we do with a few other question types...if this would make sense, let me know.

Yes... along with the 'Do you like <insert band/prowrestler/celebrity name here>???' threads...

gaaahhh...

people wouldnt be saying that unless there where people telling them that they where =/ and it lowers their self confidence they just need to here the truth =/

JUST SAYING

Like I said.

They only want to be complement on.

If you really didn't think you were pretty, you wouldnt ask anyone because you would think they would say no, so you wouldn't even ask.

& people who put a picture online& then under it put im ugly, or im gross, or somthing.
JUST WANT TO BE COMPLEMENT ON.

because really, if you think about it, if you Thought that picture was gross, why would you put it on the internet?

People need to use common since.
