DON'T JUST VOTE!



Some of you may remember so of my earlier threads, where I've discussed issues concerning things like body image, perfection, etc. and such, usually with some kind of reference to myself. Usually they have me dodging more direct questions, arguing the nature of the idea or question itself.

But the other day, after another rather spirited debate, I finally gave in, and gave them as accurate an image as I could. Their response was more then expected - "You're nuts man. No wonder you're lonely all the time if thats what you're looking for." Etc.

So once I again I turn to the Escapist for a objective (HAH!), POV on the subject. I will provide you the same description I gave them - you be the judge. Insane, or well within bounds of reality? Normal, or setting myself up for defeat? Too perfect, or about normal?

Being a Facebook arguement, I gave them a picture as a basic template. Some of you may recongize her. (If someone would like to tell me how to do the "Spoiler" in-post version, that would be great.)

The base [http://www.pitiwazou.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/soi-fong.jpg]


So from there, I said that I imagine she would have a bigger bust, around C-D, heck, I wouldn't be opposed to Es either. (Call me shallow. Go ahead.) I also see the hips as being slightly more...prominent. (See above.) Height is fine....hair color - well, nothing wrong with deep blue/purple dye is there?

Further, I say her because she already has many (yes, I am aware that she has that one particular personality feature. You know which one. Lets not dwell on it, shall we?) of hte kinds of personality features I admire, like, and would probably need. She strong-willed, and hardly willing to let my laziness get the better of either of us. She smart, but not so to the point where I'd feel useless next to her. She can relax...eventually. She isn't overly emotional. Finally, she isn't the kind of person that you have to lie to protect her feelings. (Your spleen on the other hand.....but not her feelings.)




So....small padded room, or some sense of normality?

to spoiler pu "[spoiler/]" - Then your topic - "[ /spoiler]" (without the space in the second box) to put spoiler tags in.

Curiosity means that Perfection is unobtainable.

Yes...but was using the body type and personality as a base.


Though, if the super-natural powers could be included, that would be a definte bonus.....

Insane, but insanity is good. No one really wants perfect, because perfect prevents growth. Growth is important.

No, you're cool.
I know a girl that looks slightly like that, except shorter, and Mexican.
And her hair is deep magenta instead of blueish purple.

Exactly. Still, you can't just have a particular set of characteristics for someone to match up to, people are human and therefore have faults and won't perfectly match your fantasy. If you find a girl that you think is cute and you like, try dating her and perhaps you'll really click with her/ she'll turn out to be your dream woman after all. You can't go looking for a specific type of person because: 1) That's extremely unrealistic and 2) You don't know that a person is or isn't like that until you get to know them, and you'll never do that if you're too uptight to talk to them because they don't fit your standards. So, lighten up a bit and have some fun in life.

Perfection is over-rated. You achieve it and then what's left? Nothing, except a downward slope.

Plus, Soi Fon is kinda crazy...

I could call you shallow, but that doesn't really define it. You kind of sound unhealthily obsessed.

There is more to a good person than looks, and you can't always define what you like in other people.

By the way, if you did find someone who looks like that, what do you think they would say if you showed them the picture and said something like,
"You look like this girl. I always wanted a girlfriend who looked like her."

Well sice there are around 7 billion people in this world I'm sure that exact person exhists somewhere. Now the chances of you finding her, slim. Also what do you look like, are you an attractive person? Not to be a dick but attractive people usually gravitate towards other attractive people. If your not then, that makes it even slimmer.

I have a friend, he's unattractive and fat and totally abrasive towards women. Women hate him because he's bitter, and he's bitter because women hate him. And yet he see's himself only ever boing with the hottest women. Seriously, i've seen him hit on model or movie star caliber women and get pissed because they don't like him and find him unattractive. Because of all these things he's a 26 year old virgin. Now I'm not saying you will be like this, just keep that image in you mind. Having standards is good, unless they are unrealistically high and you deny yourself happiness by not giving somebody else a chance.

Perfection doesn't exist because it is only a concept. Their is no limit to how good you can be, so it is impossible to hit the top. Also, their are to many things to get good at that perfection is ridiculous. The natives were said to be able to see farther than the white man in the dark, but in reality they jsut focused on what they good see instead of farther then that, so they were less adept at seeing the dark. Not that I want to discourage anyone, but make do with waht you have. (this get's vulgar) I thought once about what it would be like to have two penis's, or more, when I was 12, 13. But I determined it would just split it in half and since you would have to focus on two things at once, but you're brain is only really set up to focus on one thing at once, it would not be any better. I did warn you. Get better at one thing at a time, and accept that you can only work with what you have. I am a HUGE hypocrite in saying that, but it that doesn't make it less true.

So.. You're wanting an unrealistic anime character?

We all have things we're attracted too. Hell, I had the perfect girl for me in my head for years, then I got hit by a blonde bombshell. XD Considering I didn't find blondes attractive before her, it took me by surprise, but.. Yeah. Sometimes things sneak up on us like that, so don't get too hung up on the 'perfect' one.

.. That might sound harsher than I intended, but none the less, I wish you luck. You know yourself, so if you succeed, then kudos to you.

Oh, I never said I'd act if I ever saw someone like this - I was just pressed into having to explain my ideas.

I know that for myself, someone like the person I described would be an impossibly high mark, as I am not attractive at all....err, rather, I might be, but I don't really have the money or motivation to give a dermotolgist the money to fix my skin issues. I'm not unfit, but I won't be running a marathon in a respectable time soon either. And while I might be smart, it only really works in the classroom, work, or "serious" issues areas - I am mentally incapable of carrying out small talk.

I get to know the girl before deciding to go out with them or not, and most the time its how they act and who they are that I like more then what they look like, mind you I love me some eye candy I just never put it first.

There is no such thing as perfection. If that is your perfect girl looks wise, whatever man, but if you will only date a girl that looks like that, well, you are going to have a lonely life.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. If you're going to talk about body types and perfection, you could at least look for a real-life person to count as the base.
