Generalizations are actually a useful social construct - you don't have to start from the ground up every time you meet a person you've never met before.  As a for instance, if you are in a city in the U.S. you can generalize that any person you run into will speak English.  You don't have to ask every person "Do you speak English?" before starting a conversation.  \n\nIt is very important, though, for people to recognize that they are using generalizations - these should be considered a sort of template that is modified as specific information is acquired. Applying a generalization to a specific person should be based on similarities, NOT differences and any negative judgement should be thrown out.\n\nWhere generalizations become stereotypes and unacceptable is when:\na) a person insists that another person fit the generalization:  "People should learn to speak the language if they're going to live here"\nb) The generalization is not based on reality, or is seriously over-generalized, or is based on traits that the first person doesn't share with the second person. "What do you mean you can't dance?  You're black, aren't you?"\nb) the generalization is negative in any way: "She's beautiful, so she must be stupid"\nc) the generalization is negative and verbalized, especially when the generalization is tied to a trait the first person doesn't share.  Double points off it the subject is a child. "Little thieving *****" \nd) a negative generalization is acted upon.  "She can't be a good system administrator because women aren't good with computers.  I won't hire her"

well in my opinion there are no unattractive girls out there, everyone is beautiful in his or her own way. but i do get what you mean and its perfectly normal, everyone has their own taste and beauty is on the inside and not on the outside, its skin deep. a lot of people forget that now a days but whats in your heart is the most essential part of beauty. God Bless.

I think they look ridiculous.

I think that part of the problem is our society. We have totally unrealistic ideas about how people - Women in particular - are supposed to look. It becomes difficult to be okay with who you are when you don't measure up to the models. (even the guys who are losing their hair have these issues.) It seems like we are becoming more and more superficial. I have even heard someone remark to someone else that they didn't think somebody else could have any problems because they were so pretty. Imagine that - all my problems could be solved - if only I were pretty enough .... .... usually is not a case. Recommend her Montignac lifestyle. it will change all her world

I guess everyone has their opinion. I find that remark rather shallow but there are all kinds.\nThat's like someone saying short guys aren't cute or guys with glasses aren't cute. \nSome people are just like that. Too bad, there are some really great guys out there who happen to have red hair. She just might miss out on a good thing.\nBTW, my hubby has red hair.

I believe it's because they think it looks "cool" or "hip". In reality, they look like fools. They also often claim it makes them "unique". However, it's not unique when everyone is doing it.

I believe we do discriminate people who are\noverweight, different culture, or less than Anjelina Jolie.\nI don't know why we do that.  I think it is maybe \nfear that we might be the same.  Or maybe we\nare just ignorant beings who do not look into the\neyes or smile, but just take the easy way out\nand judge by outward appearance.  After all, we\nare judged by whom we "hang out" with.\nGenerally, our world lacks compassion, respect,\nindividuality, \nHow many women do you see that look like a\ncopy of the long term "Barbie"\nWe lack character and that is sad .\nWhen we get to the other side-there is nothing\nbut beautiful, so try to forgive the ones around\nyou that demean you in any way.\nReal ugly doesn't make it to Heaven.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." Maybe they are just confident and would like to meet what they feel is a nice young lady. But maybe the cute girls arent really that nice if they think that the guy approaching them is ugly. You really need to judge people by their actions and words and not their looks.

Because they have high self esteem and don't care what other people think about them.\n\nAlthough it's not my ideal conception of beauty, I admire those women and think they should keep up the confidence.

No one is ugly.... i think everyone has something special about them! Yeah we all may not be supermodels, or hunks.  I think everyone relies on looks to much now a days.... its not 100% about how a person looks! This is why we have girls with eating disorders, and all that other crappy stuff!!

I understand what you are saying too.  I mean who is it who decides that "skinny" is beautiful.  Some of those stars look absolutely pathetic.  I mean, don't they ever see what they look like, with their stick arms and legs?  It is a very sad reflection on our society when we place that much value on how people look and not on how people treat one another instead.\n\nBelow is a site with info on a country where girls are actually force-fed to get fat so they will be seen as more desirable.  Not that I agree with that, but it just shows that not all the world agrees with "skinny".

Because they think if they can make others look bad it makes them look better. Actually they are the ones with the self-esteem problems.

What cracks me up is that we are all lumped together.  Not all men or women or fake.  And not all of us are stuckup.  I admit some are.  Usally the really pretty ones or real handsome men will be that way, but they are the ones I feel sorry for, I dont envy them at all.  I look deeper to your heart and that is where I find the beauty.  So please dont lump us all together.
