The Curse of a Beautiful Woman

What does the world truly expect or see when they look at a physically attractive woman? You think that we rule the world? We have a certain power that most people do not possess? Maybe you think that life is so easy for us because of what we look like? That may actually be true for some women. I can sit here and tell you that is so far a few between. Do you really want to know what it’s like for some of us? It’s like walking in the room and catching the eye of every man and being approached with lines like “I would really love to stalk you.” Or “I’m married but I would take care of someone like you.” My favorite is when you are networking and trying to have a conversation with someone but you are getting this blank stare back at you because they do not believe for two seconds that you are an intelligent human being with wonderful ideas. Being beautiful AND smart makes you less desirable to men, as well. Men are superficial animals. They initially judge you by what they see. Beautiful women who are intelligent, can usually see through the bull shit that men do. It would certainly seem that whenever I first meet a man, he is thinking about what I am like in bed or that I’m only down for a good time. The minute I open my mouth and start to speak, their disposition changes. Suddenly, this isn’t going to be as easy as they assumed it would be. Sure, if I was just beautiful with no brain or self respect, I would probably get all the men. What you see is never what you are going to get. It makes me so angry that I am immediately judged on what I look like. Most of the time, it never gets passed that. I am grateful that I am attractive. I always work on enhancing myself and taking care of myself. I do it FOR myself. I’m here to tell you that there is so much more to me than beauty. Even if I stay single forever, I just want people to look at me and really see me.
