I’m told that “Scars are tattoos with better stories”.
But I don’t mind being ugly. Since I’m a gainfully employed, property-owning male it’s not a handicap; and in some ways it’s an advantage. For example, it helps me deal effectively with younger, stronger, faster people who intend me harm; being physically large and ugly is a good mugger deterrent.
I’d rather remove the sexist bigotry and shame surrounding ugliness than pretend it does not exist. That being said, ugliness is mostly subjective, so I’m sure it’s possible to reach a state of consciousness where no human being is ugly in your eyes. If you’ve done so, kudos to you, my friend!
