@Redstar I've seen numerous posts on EP in that group ''I want to know if you think I'm attractive" and I have never seen anyone say anything negative about a person posting the picture and I said "directly at least" because I don't know what people are talking behind someone's back. And hold on a minute, don't you think you're contradicting yourself a bit? You say that people are most likely going to say negative things about someone's picture and then you say that people who actually post those photos are people who are generally unhappy with their appearance and want to to hear positive things to make them feel better, well if the first statement is true, why would they want to do that? Wouldn't they be scared of having to deal with negative comments? And from the way you're trying to defend those people's actions, I can see that you completely misunderstood my post because 1) no one is attacking anyone here 2) I spent majority of my childhood and early teenage years being insecure about myself and constantly comparing myself to models, going on strict diets and exercise routines and since come from that past I can very well understand how is to struggle with your body image but I also know that the only one who can do something about that is you, positive self talk and spending more time loving yourself are the only things that work. Old men's flattery?
-not really.
