Do you think people realize their small/insignificant flaws? (now w/ link)

Sure, the obvious things, like weight and/or acne and things like that are easy to be aware of...

But have you ever seen someone where their ears just look "too big for their head" or "their nose is oddly shaped" or maybe "abnormally large"... little physical flaws that you notice immediately about another person...

Basically, that guy who's eyes are too close to the middle of his face, does he look in the mirror and say, "Uhg, my god damned eyes are too close together!"

I mean, I've definitely thought things like, "Wow, that girls arms are too long for her torso... shame..."

And no... I'm not high.

ETA: first reply caused me to rethink the question because it was pretty obvious he was correct. Basically, the smaller flaws that make us unique and how we're able to differentiate one another... not necessarily the flaws that people would make fun of or people would point out.

Yes.

This is what leads to insecurities and over-compensation.

Yeah, for the big stuff... but I'm talking about their smaller flaws that people wouldn't necessarily point out or ridicule...

I am too.

This is why foundation and makeup exists. Perhaps contacts instead of glasses for some, hair dye, nose jobs, etc. And that's just for starters.

A small "flaw" can lead some to life changing measures.

I would have no trouble recognizing my flaws. Fortunately I don't have any.

I wouldn't call it small or insignificant..

Dick is too big.

I have to drape it over my shoulder when I walk around naked so it doesn't drag the floor.

I think it depends on the person. Someone who notices this kind of thing on others would surely be pretty critical of themselves as well. However, someone like me who does not really notice that kind of thing on others, would likely not see it in themselves either.

This gets me thinking....I might be all fricked up and don't even realize it....

Wrap it in a silk California king bed-sheet. I've found it helps out with shoulder wear-n-tear.

Other OTrs have different methods, but I prefer silk.

of course.

You see something by looking at someone for 5 seconds, you don't think they've ever noticed it over the course of their entire life?

I'm very self conscious about my oversized dick. It's just not proportionate.

I have a huge head, huge ears, a huge crooked schnauz, but I am still better looking than 90% of the male population. Potentially higher.

I'm a woman....of course I do.


Women are pros at picking out flaws to obsess over. I spent a month obsessing over my pores (spent like $300 in beauty products that month because of it)

People notice something on other people all of the time. All flaws are subjective though

I am beautiful, in every single way. Words can't bring me down.

I am beautiful today.

My eye is wonky. That's one reason I wear the patch

InStyle reported that women on average, spend upwards of around $15,000 on beauty products in their lifetime.

I know some that can probably do that every 7-10 years.

A slight imperfection in an otherwise beautiful woman makes her hotter IYAM.

If they shop at Sephora and Ulta then I believe it. Both stores are like Costco....you ain't walking out of there without spending at least $100.
