Is it true that beauty is skin deep?

"That girl you just called fat? She's O/Ding on diet pills. That girl you just called ugly? She spends hours putting on makeup just so people may like her. That boy you just tripped? He gets abused enough at home. Remember the man with the ugly scars? He fought for our country. Remember that woman with the distorced face? She was in a gas explosion."

Yes in choosing shoes I prefer to have beautiful ones and made of good material as well..:p

Well I believe that my tattoos will look good until my skin starts to wrinkle but what the hell do others care? It's not their skin anyway. I'm happy with who I am regardless of what people think.

Have u ever wonder why those ladies you know who you think have a very bad attitude have the men that u dream of? Well,like physical appearance,what's beautiful for u might be ugly for others,what's cool for u might be weird for others and what's good for u might not be good for others.

I will always look after my physical appearance. Yes,it's good to be kind but it's even better to be kind, beautiful & sexy. Why not nurture everything?

Lol at LostInSpace- yeah, it's awkward to see " i ♥ RUDY"tattoed on a man's chest. . . Supposed to be "RUBY" though :p (blame it to wrong spelling)

For me, as long as the person is still in ownership of their own teeth and all tattoos are of the correct spelling there would be no problem!

Again inner and outer beauty, as mentioned before, have nothing to do with each other.

Our eyes are drawn to what we find pleasant...or that what we find shocking or ugly...that is natural instinct.

How we go from there depends on how we are raised.

Lol damselindistress

better in what sense?

Better to discuss politics with? or better to have few drinks with and then play doctor and patient?

It depends princess. To each of them their pros and cons.

Beauty used to be skin deep, now it's Collagen, Sillicon and Plastic deep.

Tell me which one is better: an ugly yet presentable friend with a beautiful heart or a beautiful friend with an ugly heart?

Honestly, i prefer to choose shoes made up of good material.

Peter- Could be in the eyes of the beer holder? :P lol

and no it has nothing to do with beholders! this is what ugly looking chicks tell their fat girlfriends when they go have pizza at night. Beauty is BEAUTY. Like there is good music and bad music like there is a good painting and a bad painting.

Next time you go shop for a shoes, chose the one that has good material not the sexy one you freaking hypocrites.

I love how people relate inside beauty to outside beauty.

Has nothing to do with it. All depends on how you are raised. You could look like a foot yet be a good person and you could look like Carmen Electra but have the personality of a tit.

Like for example, I look good. But I'm nice too..lol.. I'm kidding. but you get my point.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, yes! I never disagree with that. . .

Anything that is unpleasant for me is ugly. . . If your two front teeth is decaying or missing, it's unpleasant to look at, therefore it's ugly, I am literally speaking of defining ugliness here. And i find people who have decayed or missing teeth unpleasant, anyways, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, right?

God created us on his own form,agreed! so we are all beautiful..,but some people are not taking care of that beauty and let that beauty turns into ugliness.

Whether you are joking or not, you have no right to label anyone in this world as an "ugly" person. Thats because every body is God's creation and you cannot condemn on what God has given. Between, i'm not ugly, I never felt that way.

Anyhow, i believe that everyone is beautiful in one way or the other. Some people feel ugly because they have problem with their self esteem.

Of course, I agree with what you have said about being presentable. But, don't you think that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. If you have problem with your self esteem and feel that you are ugly, you will see your own deficit in others. At the same time, if you feel that you are good looking, the problem with how they look doesn't matter. No offence, its all about your ego problem.

Ugly people's best defense :p lol just kidding!!!

why people are trying to look good if this is the general thinking of us. . . Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, yes! Beauty is skin deep, yes! outer appearance is still a getter, yes! If you are not beautiful at least be presentable!

I dont want to be hypocrite here, I still want to wake up with a beautiful man beside me instead of being shocked every time i open my eyes every morning with an unpleasant looking man staring at me. :( (as I've said if you are not good looking at least try to look presentable!)

So far i always wake up in the morning with a smile ;)

Beauty emerges from good deeds and good look.

sad to say "beauty is only skin deep" isn't always the case,and women are more prone to this shallow b.s than men. one example is TV anchors specially in the states, you always have a very attractive young female anchor and next to her is usually a middle aged male whose over weight and bolding. it's a common double standard of society,pressuring and targeting women.more than ever, Women are developing eating disorders and spending thousands of dollars on beauty produts and plastic surgeries. while I do agree looks definitley play a part in your every day life, however beauty has to come from the inside because if you don't feel beautiful as a women no matter how gorgeous you look to people your insecurities will hold you back. also some of the most beautiful people do the ugliest things.

For me, beauty has not much to do with the skin. I would still consider Whoopy Goldberg beautiful if she had been fairer.

Great! That means you are a rhinoceros... and uh! if you are not, i guess marrying a rhinoceros yield rhino-sapien babies (combination of rhinoceros and homo sapien). lol, I can't imagine the situation where your kids talk rhino language and their bodies are made up of rhino skin... and yeah, they will have a horn too! And guess what, you will love them because "beauty is skin deep".

:D :P

But thankfully beauty is in the eyes of the beholder so one man's(or woman's) beautiful can be another's turn off! Personally I believe everyone has what it takes to be beautiful but it's certain deeds, experiences, and circumstances than can mar a person's beauty.

Eh. let me think methodically. If a rhinoceros's skin is really thick/deep, and if beauty is skin deep, then a rhino must be really beautiful :)

I am off to a zoo with a red rose to propose to a rhino right now :D

I firstly think most people are attracted to the outside appearance..You could meet the most hansom guy or prettiest girl but if they are ugly on the inside they become ugly on the outside also...Looks aren't everything,but that also comes with age you learn other things are more important in a person beside looks :)

Well,I get attracted to people who are handsome but it's their personality/attitude that will make me be into that person.I always go for guys who are physically attractive but as I go deeper to know them it will come to a point that it's not only their physical attributes that I fell in love with but the person that they are. For me, No matter how handsome that person is if he cant make me happy and make me laugh more than anyone else could then it's not going to work.

:)

Sadly, this is a fact of life. We are attracted first to the external beauty before delving deeper.

Beauty is only skin deep; but ugly goes straight to the bone.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!..

I believe, the statement is completely true.

The outward appearance of a person counts for nothing, but it is what lies beneath the skin. The actual person him/herself is what really matters.

Imagine buying an apple, the plumpest, shiniest & ripest looking one in a supermarket; then, while biting into it, you find out that it is rotten and wormy.

Beauty is in the eye of the seer.
