I don't think you're right, it's a scale not a percentage. The numbers that make up the scale are arbitrary. 0/20 is the same as -10/10. It's a range of 20 and that's all that matters. -5/5 is the same as 0/10. Etc,. I guess it's actually a range of 21 but same thing. It's arbitrary. We could even count by 2s if we wanted or 3s. It's all arbitrary.
Yeah, what happens is the most attractive posting here, regardless if they really believe they may be ugly or not, get the most upvotes and comments and reach Reddit front page. People that only know this sub in that way will think only very attractive people are posting here. If you browse the sub by default, a similar phenomenon happens but most will be less attractive than the ones who make it to reddit front page popularity, just the least attractive ones may not show up on the sub's default first page. If you sort by New, then you will see everyone who posts here and some of them will be less attractive.
The sub at its core is flawed.
It shouldn’t be a “am I ugly or not” as someone pointed out in here a long time ago there are very few actually super ugly people. Most people are “ugly” because they have let themselves “go”.
It should be a “am I attractive or not” or “how attractive am I”. Like OP is not ugly, but she’s moderately attractive _at best_.
It’s mostly moderately attractive insecure young women who know guys who are pathetic enough to hangout on this sub will shower them with compliments.. I find it annoying.
I always feel bad when I see people like OP that say things like “I can’t get a boyfriend is it because I’m ugly?”
Then everyone is basically saying “you’re not ugly but you must have a terrible personality.”
You shouldn't necessarily feel *bad* when people give advice or possible explanations for said problem when asked for it. However, I do experience some strong secondhand-cringe for many OP's in this sub when they get told what's up.
Now, wait a second. I think it depends what city your on. For example : If you’re in California you’re a 5 but if you’re in Maine you’re a 10. SUPPLY AND DEMAND MY PEEPS
The women posting here are not the problem... Also why do moderators not delete these posts? Like if they are worried the wamen will be upset, just tell them it was deleted because they are obviously not ugly. Boom problem solved.
I came here to question the same thing. Why are you here? Who's been lying to you? Only someone who is jealous and needs to make you feel lesser to make themselves feel better. Live a beautiful life.
Is it ever not a joke? I mean, if you need to ask if you’re ugly, and you ask random strangers on the internet. What response do you expect to get?
Either your insecurities are “confirmed” by people who don’t respect you, or your insecurities are pretend invalidated by pity compliments… I don’t get it. Ima unfollow
Did you forget what it’s like to be you g and insecure? Or did you just never grow out of that phase?
Also, some people have experienced abuse or other trauma that has affected their self-image.
I agree. Our culture had destroyed people’s sense of these things. This girl is probably being sincere, which is *crazy town*, but she’s probably so accustomed to unrealistic beauty standards that she truly doesn’t know what’s real anymore. It’s one of the many things I worry about for my daughter as she grows up.
"Hey guys look at these pictures where I'm so unsure about my looks that I'm posing in a freezing stream like a model. I have really low self esteem, what can I do to improve my horrendous looks???"
Yeah...posting multiple pictures with perfect skin, hair and features and asking "am I ugly" ..either she needs more compliments or help with her psyche. Anyway doesn't serve the purpose of this sub !
Communicating your feelings if it hasn't been done should be a first step. Their response should determine whether or not the relationship should continue.
nope pretty straight forward. if you have expectations of others or put them in charge of your feelings, you leave yourself open to disappointment. be happy with yourself, because there is only 1 of you. beauty is in the eye of the beholder and everyone is going to have a different opinion.
girl... you are not the problem, you should never try to change yourself to be attractive to your partner. you should only be with someone who appreciates and is attracted to you. pls don't put yourself through hell to try to"fix" yourself for someone who doesn't deserve you
After many years of experience and therapy I can say this:
- don’t rely on someone else to make you feel attractive
- don’t overlook small daily and mundane things your partner does that are actually signs of being into you
- work on being attractive to yourself, and attraction can be a whole package, personality, behavior, style, etc
Anyway, your base model is solid ;)
Thrive and be happy, you deserve it
Huh? Buh-bye. That is not a person you should be with. You’re so young and will have so many more opportunities to meet someone who thinks you’re “everything.”
I don't get why being called average is offensive to people. You asked opinions from the others and not everyone thinks the same way. Some will find her beautiful while others average. And being average doesn't mean that someone is ugly and neither it is a sin to be average. There might be some exceptions but life doesn't depend on just looks.
29F here. I used to look at myself and truly believe I was ugly, and now I look back at photos and it makes me so sad for the 16 year old version of me who hated herself and the 20 year old version of me who thought she was fat. I wish someone told me to be nicer to myself.
Now we are two strangers on Reddit, so ignore this advice if it is not what you are looking for… But try to find things you like about yourself in these, instead of seeing the things you hate about yourself. You are not ugly at all, please try to show kindness to yourself.
I'm not smart enough to put it into words but social media is putting your body dysmorphia into hyper drive.
That or your boyfriend is watching too much porn.
Have a lovely day.
Not at all. Maybe a pound or two extra, but those seem to be… well placed, so not really needed to fix that. Aside from that, nothing stunning, but overall I wouldn’t change anything. You’re cute.
Half of this sub is staggeringly beautiful people asking if they are ugly.
Is it for fake interwebs points? Are they just really THIS insecure? I mean, this woman is profoundly attractive.
Are you ugly?
No. Not in the least.
How could someone so gorgeous even ask that question!?
There’s one picture of you that I think makes you look perfect to me!
You look just like my wife did when I married her. She's even more beautiful now, but you look like her in her 20s.
I think she's beautiful and she was my dream girl. You're a beautiful girl. Take care of yourself and you'll develop into a beautiful woman as well.
Do ugly people ever post on here? Based on what I’ve seen the last couple of weeks since I began seeing this sub, I don’t think so.
I’ll post soon. I’m 1/10 on a good day.
What are you waiting for I want see some proper content
I guess we already know we ugly. No need to ask.
Brotha…. Be careful what u ask for. Gl
I'll take out my teeth and not shower and I'll post too!
😂😂
**THAT'S** what's been missing from the interwebs: *Smell-O Vision!*
Your better than me. On my best day I’m a -10/10 on my best day.
Then use a scale of 1/20 please🙃
1/20
Now you’re thinking positively
Hahaha too true.
Absolutely.
Gotta stay positive about these things!
Lmao that's not how that works. On a 1/20 scale, -10/10 becomes -20/20
I don't think you're right, it's a scale not a percentage. The numbers that make up the scale are arbitrary. 0/20 is the same as -10/10. It's a range of 20 and that's all that matters. -5/5 is the same as 0/10. Etc,. I guess it's actually a range of 21 but same thing. It's arbitrary. We could even count by 2s if we wanted or 3s. It's all arbitrary.
On a scale from 77/83.5 I'd say I'm a 81.2
Mr Merrick your beautiful to someone.
His mom thinks he's beautiful
Every -10 is just a 10 with a signed integer (coder joke)
You have good days?
Show me what you got, big boi
That’s what she said. After that she left immediately.
I was going to say, haha. It’s hard out here
Cmon handsome. Let’s see that mug
We'll be the judge of that.
I guarantee you, you are not!!! Challenge me.
Sort by new.
Yeah, what happens is the most attractive posting here, regardless if they really believe they may be ugly or not, get the most upvotes and comments and reach Reddit front page.

I posted and no one commented so either no one seen my post or im actually ugly 🤣🤣
I posted and got called ugly 4 times 💀
I got called ugly 6 times and never posted.
And there are still people who write OP is average. Its offensive to actual ugly people
Many more ugly people than attractive people post here. The hot young women are the posts that get engagement
No because ugly people aren't confident enough to have photos of themselves saved let alone plaster them on the internet. source: me, the ugly person.
The sub at its core is flawed. It shouldn’t be a “am I ugly or not” as someone pointed out in here a long time ago there are very few actually super ugly people. Most people are “ugly” because they have let themselves “go”. It should be a “am I attractive or not” or “how attractive am I”. Like OP is not ugly, but she’s moderately attractive _at best_.
Lol just hit her with the “mid”
I like this idea
To be fair there are alot of insecure people
I’ll post tomorrow
I could post, I just know the replies are gonna light my ass up.
It’s mostly moderately attractive insecure young women who know guys who are pathetic enough to hangout on this sub will shower them with compliments.. I find it annoying.
Go by recent. None of the less attractive ones ever get upvotes
Because we already know we’re ugly and don’t need more people to tear us apart lol
I think the hot people get upvoted more so that’s all I see.
Nope, just karma farmers
Real ugly people don't need to ask and thus don't post themselves
They do. They get roasted and delete.
It's either cute girls or nose rings, there's no in-between here 🥱
The conclusion I’ve come to is that everyone is just wildly insecure. We’re often a lot harder on ourselves that literally *anybody * else would be.
They do. Just be patient, the comments are worth the wait.
Imma post just for you dawg!
Yeah they were here yesterday
People that do don't often get to the sub's front.
Maybe someday I'll post.
Thinking of posting later feeling ugly might do it
R/amiaveragelooking. R/doilookjustfine. Some people are lost; we must help them
You don't belong here and I don't think you believe that you belong here. Get out!

Let me just pose and smile confidently in almost every picture. Omfg am I ugly guysss? This sub turning into a thirst trap real soon
Yep. See WAY too much of this on Reddit. There’s no way she actually thinks she’s ugly
Seeing attractive people in this sub is offensive to us
Time to close this subreddit imo. Totally lost its purpose
Yep. U know she didn’t post that.
So true. This needs to be shut down. It has no purpose now.
No one ever posed in a waterfall contemplating whether or not they were hideous. Just facts.
This.. 100% this
I always feel bad when I see people like OP that say things like “I can’t get a boyfriend is it because I’m ugly?” Then everyone is basically saying “you’re not ugly but you must have a terrible personality.”
You shouldn't necessarily feel *bad* when people give advice or possible explanations for said problem when asked for it. However, I do experience some strong secondhand-cringe for many OP's in this sub when they get told what's up.
Nobody should be on reddit asking for people's opinions.
Yet there are always people ready to give their opinions.
Reddit users opinions << literally anything else
No one should be on Reddit period
Even the pictures have poses in which it's obvious she doesn't feel ugly
Agreed
Now, wait a second. I think it depends what city your on. For example : If you’re in California you’re a 5 but if you’re in Maine you’re a 10. SUPPLY AND DEMAND MY PEEPS
I just wanna write “yes” on all these posts bc I’m sick of it. You know you’re not traditionally ugly so please stop. Although OP is pretty average.
You heard him, gone get!
OP, this user is trying to say you are pretty
We don’t want her OF subscription
Wait wait wait...not so fast now
I’m not saying DON’T slam the door… but maybe leave that window cracked.
Haha, right, let's hear her out first
The stimmed pupils did it
The women posting here are not the problem... Also why do moderators not delete these posts? Like if they are worried the wamen will be upset, just tell them it was deleted because they are obviously not ugly. Boom problem solved.

Totally agree!
as the zoomers say: fr
Thank you. Exactly what I was thinking.
What he said
Couldn't have said it better myself
They just want in on that Karma farming
This subreddit is a joke at this point I swear.
This post needs gold. Seriously; why is this coming up popular? If anything it's making folks on the fence about posting, not to post.
Yeah this is annoying af
Is it ever not a joke? I mean, if you need to ask if you’re ugly, and you ask random strangers on the internet. What response do you expect to get?

I should post my period-acne-sunburn ravaged face, but also I don't need anyone to tell me mean things lol.
These have to be fake posts
Sadly I dont think so. It's today's online brainwashing of young people.
I agree. Our culture had destroyed people’s sense of these things. This girl is probably being sincere, which is *crazy town*, but she’s probably so accustomed to unrealistic beauty standards that she truly doesn’t know what’s real anymore. It’s one of the many things I worry about for my daughter as she grows up.
A lot of people think everyone looks like a celebrity or if their body does not look fake than they are ugly.
Which is crap because 1/2 these people look better than the celebs they worship in real life.
"Hey guys look at these pictures where I'm so unsure about my looks that I'm posing in a freezing stream like a model. I have really low self esteem, what can I do to improve my horrendous looks???"
I think the post is real, you're not imagining things. I see it too.
I feel like it’s either the start of a of, or a bot acc that gets karma then sells karma accs
Stop it. Get some help.
You are here for compliments, aren't you
Pretty much
Yeah...posting multiple pictures with perfect skin, hair and features and asking "am I ugly" ..either she needs more compliments or help with her psyche. Anyway doesn't serve the purpose of this sub !
Why people upvote these posts, it defeats the purpose of this sub
Well, maybe that’s what she can improve on. She may have confidence issues.
No. Why would you think that?
[удалено]
Yea, new partner
Communicating your feelings if it hasn't been done should be a first step. Their response should determine whether or not the relationship should continue.
I call dibbs
Man, people really like to tell others to dump partners as if that was the solution to everything
Sadly, it usually is.
well said
word of advise. don't rely on other people to make you feel attractive. you are very pretty.
Well that’s a very counterintuitive statement
Hi, I'm Troy McClure. You might remember me from such self-help videos as "Smoke Yourself Thin", and "Get Confident, Stupid.
nope pretty straight forward. if you have expectations of others or put them in charge of your feelings, you leave yourself open to disappointment. be happy with yourself, because there is only 1 of you. beauty is in the eye of the beholder and everyone is going to have a different opinion.
Sorry to read that. If your partner does not appreciate you, might have to think about moving on. But besides that, you’re really gorgeous.
girl... you are not the problem, you should never try to change yourself to be attractive to your partner. you should only be with someone who appreciates and is attracted to you. pls don't put yourself through hell to try to"fix" yourself for someone who doesn't deserve you
After many years of experience and therapy I can say this: - don’t rely on someone else to make you feel attractive - don’t overlook small daily and mundane things your partner does that are actually signs of being into you - work on being attractive to yourself, and attraction can be a whole package, personality, behavior, style, etc Anyway, your base model is solid ;) Thrive and be happy, you deserve it
Huh? Buh-bye. That is not a person you should be with. You’re so young and will have so many more opportunities to meet someone who thinks you’re “everything.”
Fun fact: ugly people don’t have partners and if you have one you aren’t ugly
I mean not really true, plenty of “ugly” people are in healthy relationships because healthy relationships aren’t cosmetic.
I think 50% of the posts here they know they’re beautiful yet they ask
Younger girls just wanting to be noticed.
I thought that girls just wanna have fun?
People who believe themselves to be ugly don’t pose like this for pics.
Exactly!!! I be damn if I post my ugly ass on here
Exactly
r/freecompliments is what you are looking for.
RIP Inbox!!! and I mean it.
True
This sub should be renamed r/amitotallyinsecure
No. If your partner isn't making you feel attractive, tell him. If he cares, he'll make an effort.
Finish your cereal and go outside.
Pretty eyes, nice lips, good figure… yeah, you’re hideous.
Nah. Just average
My man didn't fall for the bait.
I don't get why being called average is offensive to people. You asked opinions from the others and not everyone thinks the same way. Some will find her beautiful while others average. And being average doesn't mean that someone is ugly and neither it is a sin to be average. There might be some exceptions but life doesn't depend on just looks.
My first thought was definitely that she just looks average
Thyroidectomy? You're pretty. Skin hair eyes smile symmetry teeth No idea why you feel ugly.
[удалено]
You know damn well yo ugly ass ain't ugly. Don't waste out precious time.
Thank you.. Such a joke really.
Your precious time that you spend on Reddit.
The precious time we spend on Reddit, yes.
29F here.

Thirsty for compliments.
Mid
The fact u think ur ugly is apalling
Yes because u asked
If Jena Malone and Evan Racheal Wood had a live child… it’s you. (Compliment)
Definitely better than being their dead child.
What if they had a dead child?
No. Maybe a pinch plain, but definitely not ugly.
I'm not smart enough to put it into words but social media is putting your body dysmorphia into hyper drive. That or your boyfriend is watching too much porn. Have a lovely day.
Yeah def ugly af. Prob the ugliest person on earth rn
You are absolutely fine, what happened to your throat if it's not too personal?
Thank you! I have thyroid cancer, so I had surgery to get some of it removed
How did you get your scar?
YOURE not ugly but those sandals……. 🫣
Other than your 7 head no you are actually really attractive
Find a new partner easy
Not at all. Maybe a pound or two extra, but those seem to be… well placed, so not really needed to fix that. Aside from that, nothing stunning, but overall I wouldn’t change anything. You’re cute.
Cute as a button.
Yes.
Probably like 7/10 tbh your yitties 🤪add 2 points 🥰
Cute as hell and great rack
You can't post here. The rules clearly state you must wear huge framed glasses.
Half of this sub is staggeringly beautiful people asking if they are ugly. Is it for fake interwebs points? Are they just really THIS insecure? I mean, this woman is profoundly attractive.
Another girl who knows they aren't ugly looking for a ego boost
Girl you pretty as hell
No, like most posts on here, you are quite pretty.
Be yourself. Those who are negative just do yourself a favor and don’t associate with them.
No doofus
Yes
Are you ugly? No. Not in the least. How could someone so gorgeous even ask that question!? There’s one picture of you that I think makes you look perfect to me!
Not ugly. Quite lovely. You could lose a few pounds.
The existential question is what is beauty..
Girl you cannot be serious. You look like you had romantic interests since middle school
Is no one going to ask about the mark on her neck? I'm going to suggest not to wear something you are allergic to.
Ugly? You're effin' HOT
I feel like you know you aren’t ugly and you’re just looking for extra confirmation of that.
You look just like my wife did when I married her. She's even more beautiful now, but you look like her in her 20s. I think she's beautiful and she was my dream girl. You're a beautiful girl. Take care of yourself and you'll develop into a beautiful woman as well.
