This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

No one maybe talking about lookism but they're practicing it.

Between strangers, yes. For social groups, people tend to stop seeing each others looks as they get to know each other. This is where people's advice to work on your personality is necessary. If you're out just expecting random people to approach you because of your looks, you're going to be waiting around for a long time unless you're blessed with the lucky quality of being born gorgeous.

If you go outside more you also notice that there aren't a lot of gorgeous people in the real world. (No, Tinder, clubs and other places where people LARP don't count as the real world.)

Agree with the first but not last paragraph; I work at a grocery and every day I'm floored by how many beautiful people come in on a daily basis. People I would consider just as beautiful if not more so than models.
