For fun poll...Beautiful face/or Beautiful Body

[Mia001]

Hi,

I only dress at home and am not into wigs and makeup really which means when I do dress I'm not likely to pas anyway. I voted for "body" so I could wear whatever I wanted and look good (to myself anyway).

I suppose it depends on your situation and dressing preferences as much as anything else.

Mark.

I chose face for all the reasons outlined in previuos answers. I have always had a tendency to look at a persons face first "The eyes are the window to the Soul".

You can pad and constrict parts of your body, but not your face.

[trannie T]

As I have neither a beautiful face nor a beautiful body I'd be overjoyed to have either one.

[Kimberley]

I chose the body for a couple of reasons. First it is likely to be more healthy and second, makeup dahling, makeup.

[SIZE=3]I can't really answer that. I already have a cute body and manly face. I don't think i'd want to trade what i have for a bigger body though.[/SIZE]

[ReginaK]

The perfect body for me. It opens up so many more clothing options. No more need for pads, corsets, and other expensive things that keep me from feeling real.

A not so perfect face is easier to hide.

[rachel-h]

face is the one thing i feel gives me away when out. I would love to be able to soften my features when dressed

[Cheery GG]

Hi kathy,

Not sur eif this poll is open to gg's, hense not replying to the poll directly, but i wanted to add a post anyway.

many people on this thread have said that beauty is skin deep etc etc etc, which it is. but unfortunetly society says we should all be beautfiul AND slim to be acceptable.

Unforuntely i do neglect my body, afterall i am a working (hard) single mum, and would much rathr put my time and efforts into my family than working out on the cross trainer....however, i do think facially 'i'll do !', i mean im ok with my lot thanks very much....im no glamour model, but hey im just me....(now just need to loose those 40 pounds....)

My baby loves me as i am, and i dont really care about anyone else anyway.....

This was a very good poll and very hard to come to a decision but I too would choose a beautiful face over a beautiful body. But I want my cake and eat it too so I would need both

[kathy gg]

HI...
70% of people who responded picked a beautiful face/not so great body.
30% picked beautiful body/not so great face

There were alot of interesting comments well.

[Julie York]

What poll? Did I win?



:cheeky:

[kittypw GG]

As a genetic girl and if I were trying to catch a guy. Then it would have to be great body hands down. Men always choose great body over beauty. Never see men out looking for fat beautiful girls. Kitty

[cheryl1035]

I have to agree that a beautiful face and hair can make a big difference as to whether I can pass or not. Of course, confidence when out also helps. Just my 0.02

[Jesse69]

I voted face. I already worked on my body and went from a size 16 to a size 4. But I'm generally a size 6. A man does not get feminine curves from losing weight. No hourglass figure, but that's ok with me, I'm not a female.

Oh not all men!!!

If I could change myself, I would want to have a beautiful face. That is what everyone -- the general public -- sees. But if your body isn't perfect, then the only one who will see it naked is someone who loves you. And it won't matter to them, because they will be interested in who you are inside, not what your body looks like.

At least, that is my experience. As Angel always says to me, it is not the shape of the bottle that matters, it is the quality of the wine within.

Love,
Marla

[bridgette63]

Id take a pretty face, no question. Your face is out there for all to see and makeup even, very well done can not hide the underlying structure.

[TGMarla]

My dear Marla, you already have a beautiful face. And I mean that sincerely. At first I was going to choose body. I mean, I'd love to have a gorgeous body....but then I thought of Rita Cosby, and changed my mind. She's a big girl, but wow! what a face! Beautiful! Oh, well, at least I can pretend to have both, even when I have neither.

[Jasmine Ellis]

I'm going with the girls on this one. it's got to be the face.

[kathy gg]

Gg's thanks for chiming in. I should have specified ...silly me.

Anyway, since gg's we are weighing in, I thought this thread was about to die! I will give me thoughts ...

I personally have felt that most men usually go for a woman with a beautiful body rather than a pretty face. NOT ALL MEN...but MANY do. I can remember in high school girls with a hot body but scary faces always got guys dying to date them. Girls with cute faces but so-so bodies were usually left in the dust.

I do think that the men who do choose a pretty face over that hot body are rare. I am fortunate that my husband likes me the way I am. My body has not been that great for a couple of years thanks to having a baby. And the last time I fit into what society deems a good size for my height was around 1991.

I think crossdresser on an average are more sympathetic to a woman with less than amazing bodies. I think they are sympathetic due to the fact that they can relate to not being able to fit into the size they would like to. Not that many are fat or overweight even, just that an average build for a guy is much bigger than an average build for a female. I also think becuase alot of men are slimmer hipped and have smaller butts and don't have all those excess areas to store fat which we can.... they like the idea of curves and shape and not gg who looks like a 12 year old boy with no hips and no butt and no chest.

I was glad to see the results of this poll. Although it was centered on what your preference to your femme self would be, I like many gg's sort of wonder how to interput those thoughts as they might or might not relate to us as a whole.

Thanks again to all who chimed in and voted.

Never see men out looking for fat beautiful girls. Kitty

I disagree. There are men like me out there, granted we are few and far between. Unfortunately, most me see a 'fat chick' as a one night stand, something to f--k when they're hard up and this lends to big beautiful women (BBW) having low self esteem.

However, there are men out there that appreciate big women, they're called 'chubby chasers' or 'fat admirers.' I met my wife because she is a BBW and after knowing her for just a few minutes, I fell in love with her. I am in love with every ounce of her. Truth be told, I haven't dated but one girl under 200 lbs. in 5+ years. I've always been attracted to big women. When I met my wife, I weighed 130 lbs.

I love seeing that big women are becoming more accepted in mainstream media. Ashlie Atkinson (Rescue Me) and Camryn Manheim (The Practice) are two examples of BBW actresses that are making their way in Hollywood. Fat Pig is an example of BBWs making a mark on Broadway. Many personal products now have commercials showing big women because not everyone can look like a super model.

So, to all the BBW GGs (and BBW CDs): Keep that double chin, 'cause big fat mamas are back in style again!

Heads Wins!!! Take a big girl for example. When she has a gorgeous face, I tend to forget the rest. My S.O. is a big girl but she is so beautiful, I just want to eat her all up. (No sexual pun intended)

Hugs, Sarah R.

[Teresa Amina]

i would have to say face. you could always work on the body

Chubby is often more attractive than skinny anyway!
