Outcast Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 It's perfectly fine to think you're attractive. What's not fine is to think of yoursef as better or others as 'down', 'lower', 'lesser', or in some way not as great as you because of your attractiveness. Or intellect. Or job. Or whatever. Humans are different; not 'better' or 'worse'. Stephen Hawking isn't pretty but he's one of the smartest men alive and has managed to live despite all the odds against him. So does that make him 'better' than you? Link to post Share on other sites

So does that make him 'better' than you? I'm way better looking. I think that makes me better than him. Sure he's pretty smart, but who would you rather snuggle with? Me. Who is Stephen Hawking anyway? Link to post Share on other sites
Outcast Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 who would you rather snuggle with? Me. Well, it's true that a ton of tubes and equipment whirring away could be a bit of a mood-killer. Of course we don't know that you're not similarly outfitted, Johan. Link to post Share on other sites
Touche Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Wow..and here I thought you were an intellectual! You don't know who Stephen Hawking is? (Oh, and yes..you ARE better looking than he is but does that make you a better person?) Link to post Share on other sites

Yamaha Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Who is Stephen Hawking anyway? Stephen Hawking has written many books and papers on the laws of theoretical physics. Google him for more info. The amazing thing about him is although he has ALS he still writes and lectures despite is failing body. Link to post Share on other sites

So does that make him 'better' than you? I don't think in my case that cheating "down" per say was all based on looks, O . The girl was ghetto, bad looking , uneducated ,and out to have a taken man just because he was taken , not to mention mean . She intentionally went after him while I was recouping in the hospital after having our child .He was obviously a peice of work too. If looks are not the prereq for cheating Down then these other things certainly are . You can call it how you want but if it walks and talks like a duck then its no moose.

midori Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Hi everyone, This thread has reached an extraordinary length, and has veered off-topic many times with off-topic exchanges. Perhaps eventually the moderation team will have time to weed through the 25 pages of posts and remove the off-topic banter that so many seem to find irresistible. But since we don't have time at the moment to clean up the thread so that it is a focused, relevant discussion, we'll have to close it for now. Best regards, midori Link to post Share on other sites
