I go to rate subs to self-harm

It’s kind of an addiction now. Whenever I come across a picture of a pretty woman especially on a rate sub I become super self-conscious and I post myself basically asking for low ratings. Like I want confirmation that I am ugly so I can put it to rest, but it doesn’t actually work and I can’t accept it. It doesn’t help that I get DMs telling me I’m pretty and a few comments also saying that but most comments tell me I am below average. I didn’t want to have doubt left but I still have doubt though I am becoming increasingly convinced that I’m objectively unattractive. Why can’t I just accept that I am not pretty and will never be treated like a pretty girl?

Men only like the idea of women

Why else are men only attracted to plastic looking women? Women who are super smooth and hairless with a caked face of makeup, plastic surgery, high heels, tight ass dress, etc. It‘s like to be attractive to men you have to be as uncomfortable as possible. They don’t give a shit about natural faces don’t be fooled. When men say they like natural women what they mean is that they like the top 5% of women who are naturally stunning. Otherwise you have to spend a lot of time and money just for men to consider you. Men on the other hand at worst just need to be fit and have a good skincare routine (which isn’t even a requirement for most woman apparently). The bar for men is in hell, the bar for women is in heaven, completely opposite standards.

Muslims only care about your life if you are Muslim

You notice the only people in dire situations that Muslims support are Muslim? Gaza, Sudan, Yemen, Syria, etc. You will never see Muslims advocate for helping the people of non-Muslim countries because they don’t see non-Muslims as worthy of help or life. If anything Muslims will see their suffering as brought onto themselves for not being Muslim. But if Muslims are suffering conveniently it’s not a deserved punishment for their sins. Rotten, selfish people they are.

Was choosing computer science a mistake?

I chose it cuz I saw good job prospects but now I regret it. I’m almost 2 years into my major. I don’t regret it because it’s too hard, I regret it because I’m realizing it will only become more difficult to get into. The job market is way too competitive and AI lowered the demand for programmers by a lot. I fear that by the time I graduate the bar for entry will be even higher, at this rate I might need a pHD to even hope to get in. It feels utterly hopeless. I’m seriously considering switching majors, but I don’t even know what I should study instead. I feel lost. I hate the advice of following your passion because my passion doesn’t pay enough. Genuinely what can I do?

20F wishing I majored in architecture instead of computer science

I gave up on art like 6 years ago so I was trying to find a path completely unrelated to my dead passion. I was interested in architecture and drawing buildings as a kid until I gave up on my dream of pursuing art. I was lost on what to choose and I chose computer science last minute because I was naive and I thought I could make it with just an associate’s. The reason I was in such a rush was because I wanted to move out of my strict parents’ house asap.

Now I’m rethinking my choices and wish I could take back the two years I wasted on compsci and start architecture instead. I know the path for architecture is much longer and also less lucrative but with AI decreasing the demand for programmers and the industry becoming almost impossible to break into it might as well be the same anyway. I never had a passion for tech, I was just making a hasty decision as a stupid teenager. And I don’t hate coding itself I just hate the environment I’m studying in, but I’d much rather study something closer to my real passion than a soulless industry like computer science.

If I make the switch it will be another 5 years studying and 2 years wasted on a major I will likely never use, but if I don’t I will be stuck in a field that will probably never hire me. What should I do?

Obsession with protein blocking progress

I'm 20F, 200lbs, 5'6.5. I want to lose weight while avoiding muscle loss but at the same time hitting my protein goal will be very hard. I see people talk about crazy numbers like 1g/lbs which would be 200g of protein for me, and if my intake is 1700 calories per day that's almost half of my calories coming from protein, which is just not sustainable. How do I even make room for other important nutrients? Even 100g is impossible for me to hit, forget 200g. But apparently even 100g isn't enough even if I strength train. I won't elaborate on why I can't hit that much because it's a complex situation for me, I just can't do it, especially not consistently. Best I can do is 70g-90g. I'm too afraid to go back to my deficit in case I lose too much muscle. So what do I do?

How to be conventionally attractive? [20]

I've been told I need a nose job and I'm really tempted to go for one. If I should get a nose job, should I go for surgical or non-surgical? I want to be universally attractive not just attractive to people with specific tastes, and it seems the answer is surgery. What do I do?

Feeling like my humanity is determined by a number on a scale

It’s very hard to see myself as anything more than a number on the attractiveness scale. I’ve asked to get my face rated many times on this site and I had a wide range of opinions. Some people rated me a 4, others a 5, some a 6, 7. A small minority gave me 8+. I just dwell on these ratings and I feel like the lower my score the less human I am. Like I legit believe that I am less human than women who are prettier than me and I can‘t get out of that mindset no matter what I do. I don’t even feel content being a 6-7 because there are still 8s 9s and 10s that will be loved more than me. And yes I also believe more beautiful women are loved more. And because I can’t see proof that shows otherwise I can’t be convinced otherwise. What do I do?

How deep does a yeast infection go?

I went to the OBGYN a couple months ago to get checked out for an infection. The check up was super painful, she was spreading the area around my clitoral good to check. The only way for her to get a look was to spread the folds and that’s how she confirmed I have an infection. She told me to clean it with an unscented soap and prescribed a topical treatment. She said the sensitivity was most likely from the infection. But because she had to spread my folds to the point it caused pain to be able to see the infection does that mean I have to do the same to clean it? I don’t want to put myself through that pain again it was too much. I don’t know where the yeast is embedded and I’m afraid it is stuck in the clitoral hood. What should I do?

How can I be confident when there is nothing to be confident in?

I'm not conventionally attractive, I don't have stand-out skills, I have zero charisma. So tell me why I should feel confident in myself. I don't believe in "fake it till you make it." Even if I do have skills and charisma they won't make up for my looks. People are shallow and especially when it comes to women, if they sense any confidence from an unattractive woman they will do everything they can to make sure she has none left. Our confidence and self-respect is seen as unjustified. It feels safer to just be timid and and obedient than risk opening myself up to humiliation.

“Even beautiful women get negative comments on their appearance” BULLSHIT

I posted my face several times online and besides a few creeps who rate everyone highly and people lying to be nice I got mostly negative comments on my looks. People cope by saying it‘s just “negging” but this is completely untrue. Women who are truly pretty do not get a single bad comment on their looks under their posts, at worst they are called validation/attention seekers. I’ve seen it myself. This is how you know someone is actually attractive, when people scoff and roll their eyes at you when you post a picture asking for an evaluation of your appearance then you are objectively attractive. When it’s an ugly person people beat around the bush and treat you like a charity case, they’re like “no you‘re so prettyyy don’t say that.” I’m sick of it.

Gonna go against the grain here

I've tried tapeworms and they actually work so well no matter how much you eat. I know some of you fatties can't control yourselves and always eat past 100 calories everyday so I tried a little experiment with tapeworms to see how much food you can get away with when you have a tapeworm. The sky really is the limit y'all, you can eat 500 and even a whopping 1200 calories and the tapeworm will absorb all of it. Just be careful not to overwhelm the worm with too much food at a time or it will explode. So yes you can get away with overeating a little if you use tapeworms. Good luck future skinny queens!!!

If I have mixed opinions on my nose should I get surgery to fix it?

I have asked quite a large sample of people online about my appearance and about half say my nose is too big and ruins my appearance to some extent and the other half says it does not ruin my appearance at all (it is either unnoticeable or in a few people’s opinions a bonus). If around say 50% of people say my nose detracts from my attractiveness is that good enough reason to get a nose job? It might even be more than 50% because I am sure a good chunk of people who claim to have no issue with my nose are lying to be nice.

You can be against Islam without supporting white supremacists

I know this will be controversial but I have to say it. I’ve noticed a lot of ex-Muslims (not all) will abandon all their morals in the name of hating Islam. Yes I know islam is a deeply problematic religion but that doesn’t mean you should just let your hate blind you into swinging to the far-right. It’s also self defeating because why are you in favor of the deportation of muslim majority populations from the west? Policy makers will not make an exception for you just because you abandoned the religion. You are brown first and foremost to racists, they don’t care about your faith.

The sight or mentioning of a beautiful woman is extremely triggering (BDD)

Everywhere I go I'm reminded of the existence of women leagues more beautiful than me. Whether I'm out on the street and I see a pretty girl or I am scrolling mindlessly and I see anything related to beautiful women, I get triggered and go into a spiral.

I am reminded that I will never be pretty enough and that there will always be someone way prettier than me who will take all the love and attention. It feels I will never break out of the loop.

This has led to me posting my pictures on this site and showing them to people in dms asking for evaluations of my attractiveness. When I don't get positive feedback it just gets worse and I become depressed and suicidal.

The only way to avoid getting triggered is by becoming a complete shut-in and blocking all my socials, but this is obviously not possible. So what do I do? How do I cope?

Men are more shallow than women and you know it

Why do men pretend they are less shallow than women when they are the ones calling themselves visual creatures? Besides that I also see a lot of redpill men say women value security over looks while men value beauty over anything else. Literally everything you guys say is an admission that you care more about looks than women but when it‘s time to actually confront that you deny it and say “nah women are more shallow because they like tall men.” Yeah women like tall men but men want women with big boobs, full hips, big ass, narrow waist, perfect skin, petite, etc. Women are held to insanely high standards but god forbid we want a tall man.

20F given up

At this point I just want confirmation I'm ugly so I stop deluding myself into thinking I'm any better. My nose is big and way too many people have pointed it out for me to pretend it's not an issue, so I don't believe anyone calling me pretty. Just stop lying and be straight with me.
