Wow. My wife struggles with her perceptions because of her father's criticisms when she was young and I am constantly learning how to be supportive so that she can feel good about herself. I hope that Ms. Beard's story helps some women out there because its a shame that they resort to those types of things to meet expectations.

 

I agree with this message. All women are beautiful. Except fatty fat Kate Upton.

 

You want to know the sad part about that? Those who are adored like Ms. Upton may have the hardest time accepting themselves as is.

 

And she has a book coming out. Shocker.

 

Its so sad to hear that when I see her shoving her tits in the camera and licking on a Carl's Jr. Jalapeno burger.

 

Screw that. You are flawed and you need my male approval to feel good about yourself.

 

It's possible to be too beautiful:

She made a solid move by changing to the un-beautiful look so as to fly under the radar.

 

Is that a British 10?

 

God, we women can be brutal. I'll give her that.

My first thought upon seeing her picture: Botox.

We're awful. And we have about as much control over our awfulness as you men do over your sex drives.

 

Is that why when men and women get together, they have awful sex?

 

According to Jones, yes.
