I am not sure about myself. I have a poor self image. I am occasionally able to photograph well with a little trickery...but I am sure that though from one angle...and with my "stage makeup", my face is passable, the whole of my being is rather physically flawed. I am lucky to have one good angle...Any other angle and the illusion goes to hell...I am short, with ugly hands, weird posture, a double chin...etc...
As far as how I judge other people...I feel largely neutral about the appearance of most people.
I can maybe objectively see in them what others may see as being their physically attractive features if I focus on that...but I usually don't focus on that.

Its very rare for people to right out call me attractive, mostly b/c I get pissed off if someone (even in my family) calls me pretty or beautiful. W/ guys, I think I prevent any comments about my looks by saying I'm asexual + possibly being unattractive. But oddly enough I had a female friend tell me "you look gorgeous" recently when she saw me coming in for dinner (I'm on campus). This didn't make sense b/c I had my head down (she lifted it too) & she's not a lesbian (she's gotten offers from girls b4 & turned them down). This just a girl thing I don't get? I've also been told by 1-2 guys that "you've definitely got boobs" when I said I was the smallest girl their (I hang out w/ nice weirdos where both the guys & girls compare breast size   ). I also had an instance in HS where a friend interpreted a guy I knew had a crush on me b/c he kept staring at me after I had a panic attack b/c he surprised me (this went on for months until he graduated). I keep getting mixed signals, either comments saying I'm attractive in what I'm guessing are non-flirtatious (this a word ) situations or staring & no comments. I'm confused! (Frustration level at practically  )

I think my ability to tell who's ugly and who's pretty is getting better as my ability to recognize people improves.
I was wondering if anyone else doesn't have a clear idea of what he or she looks like. And I don't mean not knowing how you rate on a beauty scale, but rather, not remembering your features. I'm always looking in the mirror, because I tend to forget what I look like, and every time it's like a surprise. |

I don't know. I don't know what people think about me if I'm attractive or not, sometimes I think I'm ugly, sometimes I don't.

Now where the hell did I put that time machine?  |
I want that time machine too. I look a lot cuter to my middle aged eyes than I remember being. Now the best I can hope for is "not bad...for someone your age". |

Aspy eyes can be critical....and see fault too remember....see the details, not the whole picture.
So DONT look in the mirror on days where you are in that mode!!! (Anorexia/body dysmorphia is more prevalent in AS brains too) You may just see your ears, or a small bit of fat, and not notice the rest of you actually blends in to other people, so to them you are not fat or just a big nose (or in my case, I think Im a big chin, with a bit of face attached) |
When you refer to "Aspy eyes" are you refering to an autistic person's gaze or what? Do we all have a similar "eye light"?
