frustrated

Up there with rating communities, another lj thing that continually makes me feel bad about myself is the host of celebrity gossip communities like ohnotheydidnt. People in these communities are constantly calling attractive celebrities "fugly." For example, I can't believe how many people have called Mischa Barton fugly, when I would kill to look like her. I think to myself if this girl's really fugly or at least plain, what hope do I have? I would have never guessed anybody in their right mind could call her unattractive. And then they'll turn around and call somebody like Mary-Kate Olsen, who I don't think is more than cute, gorgeous. I feel like I don't understand what people find attractive, and everybody seems to agree -- there's no dissent.

It also seems like they're so focused on looks. That scares me because people are always telling me "you're too focused on looks"..."most people don't think about looks that much." But these communities seem to prove the opposite.
