@op, true, looks hav always been important and will always be. unfortunately, people take this idea and become obsessed with it. some men wud say i'l rather be with someone dat is cute than never and that is why their image of body become more important than their own true desires. sure when they meet the real person, they wud admit you are nice and sweet but they would rather be with the fake girl cos they are afraid of what family and friends wuld say.

I get you. . . . . . .LOL@ the last part of your post, the bolded part makes it seem like "authentic" girls have given up on life and themselves and don't really care about their look. I guess what I was referring to in the original post is the barbie look on black women as opposed to the more clean and natural look with just enough make up to enhance what one already has without having to go plastic with long weaves (chemically processed hair is still a natural look to me), claws for nails, fake eye lashes and the likes. . . . . . . . . .that is what seems to be in these days but I guess that is the younger women who look up to Ciara and Beyonce's lace fronts that reach the bum and can be flicked off the face. . . . . . . . BTW, I am not old, just grounded

loooooooooooooool

Its funny that you mention girls wanting to emulate the Beyoncé and Ciara looks, my mom was having a conversation with a co-worker and mentioned that she's never had a weave, acrylic nails, or fake eyelashes and this was the co-workers reaction >>>

lol, when I see fake eyelashes its makes me laugh because its basically weave on your eyes

@ weave on eyelashes, never thought of it like that the lengths people will go to for beauty!!!

Yupp, its astonishing

It's madness. . . . .

Keep it real

@Topic,
Anyone who'd rather have you be fake isn't worth having you at all,and for those who fake to keep someone,they are blantantly abusing themselves.No matter how effed up,stand up,stupid,senseless,blunt,stubborn,confident,annoying,talkative,playful,childish,quite,loud etc you are,there's someone who'd love and appreciate you that way and all you need do is locate such one.However,it doesn't mean cos you are yourself you shouldn't try to adjust your 'bad' self to unveil a better you.

I totally agree with you, there is always room for improvement, be it looking better, changing bad habits and so forth, I like how you worded the line in italics!!!

Exactly the same thing that bothers me with 'some' ladies, and I keep wondering and asking myself why some girls do keep a blind eye and walk pass the real men that wil give them comfort and a happy marraige, but keep this time, they keep their eyes wide open like Owl and with the instint of of a desert Eagle when walking and they keep stucking on players, wife beaters, cheaters, rude dudes etc [ how are we to be sure that the complainers are not 'fake' themselves, and pls, how do we recognise 'fake' girls when we see them on the street, thanx] ?

God bless you!
