Seriously whats with all the "Do I look good" questions?

insecurity and/or attention whore complex is my best guess

Preach is son!

I know in my case I ask if something looks good on me or if I look good because half the time I can't tell if something looks hideous on me or not. I always used to get picked on when I was younger as well because i grew up in an area where everybody was blonde haired and blue eyed, and I'm italian with extremely dark features so I stuck out! The popular girls tore me apart and I coudln't STAND to look at myself in the mirror. Yuck, dark, dark times. But then again, those girls were just trying to make themselves more secure, and they're the kinds of people fishing for compliments. heh.

I'm dying to argue with you. Simply for the fun of it. This is a really subjective topic, and there are a lot of different perspectives.

I could point out that I myself have asked the question once... but then my boyfriend had just cheated on me and gotten another girl pregnant... is it ok that I felt a little less confident at that time?

Idk. Sometimes I agree with you, especially when these obviously pretty girls ask it... but then, no one's forcing you to answer it...

I'm cool with people asking what they want on here as long as it doesn't insult me... Relax k?... No matter how much you argue your point none of the girls that love to hear people tell them they're pretty are going to change...

Its hilarious because i was JUST looking at a guy who wanted to know if we thought he looked good..

And i was thinking to myself, man! If only people would stop fishing around for compliments, and you know some of these people know they are hot, and yet still need the compliments...

I will never understand people.. Im not the most confident person, but i definitely am confident enough to know that putting pictures of myself on Yahoo Answers is just dumb.. lol

I agree...I am rather tired of seeing questions like "do I look fat?" "Am I pretty?" "What do you think of this girl?....it's not me ..just curious"

If you are being picked on it is most likely that the person doing it is insecure and trying to direct the negative attention toward someone other than them self. It is a shame that so many people in our society are so convinced (brain washed by media and advertising!) that everything about a person is determined by looks. Too bad so many people can't think for themselves.

I totally agree with you! I mean what's wrong with them? I wouldn't care what a strange in the other side of the world thinks about me, besides it's a very dangerous trend cause they include like actual pics of themselves, who knows what kind of freak whatches them and for what purpose??? They think that getting their pics in internet is a way of becoming like famous (similar to getting on TV) but there's a lot in stake when they do this!

You make a legitimate point, but what about those girls with a fast metabolism that weigh 80 pounds naturally? I have a friend, she's 16 around 5'8 and she weighs 100 pounds. She eats, but she also swims.

Though I see your point, those questions are annoying.

Besides the ugly "all American girls" Always get a 10 and the exotic girls get like a 5 I've noticed. Those questions are idiotic.

So many young people are way to insecure. Their parents don't take time and encourage the kids. Other kids are cruel. It is a cruel cold hurtful world and they are just trying to get some POSITIVE FEEDBACK for a change.

i honestly dont know why there aare so many.

to be honest, thats NOT why i came to this section of answers.

i want tips,

not some people clogging up the possible questions

Agree with the confidence. Confidence is one of the most important aspects of life. Without it you can't do anything. Instead of asking for compliments over the internet they should just ask close friends or family. Personality is what makes you look good not your appearance.

your right mannn

they get annoying after awhile

but i dont mind looking at how people look

Portia is Hotttt
