Were you hot when you were young?

I was a very plain child , my father kept drumming it into me that I was ugly and I got beaten up for it by him too , so I was clear about that .... then I became pretty average looking... there's only 3 pics of me as a kid (and all of those were taken by relativesnot my parents)..and 2 class photos..(father said I was too ugly for photos.. )

never had a problem attracting guys in my adulthood tho'... :)

Did your father ever get fitted for glasses, because there was definitely something wrong with his eyes? :confused:
You, Holly, are our 'Dolly-Bird'.🤗
 

Yes, if one likes small curvy women with long legs, and high cheekbones. Due to my childhood, my feelings re my appearance were ambivalent to say the least, and there is no doubt that although

being a pretty belly dancer paid most of the bills while I was at university, my looks were a drawback when it came to being taken seriously in a “man’s profession.” Apparently, young

women who resembled dolls couldn’t possibly make the grade. Pfft, I graduated 20th in a class of 250. Lol. I kept men at a distance for a long time. Trust remains a challenge. They seemed to enjoy my company anyway,

I've been told I was but like so many others, had low self-esteem and was really shy. I think a lot of guys took my shyness for stand-offishness and I did not have many dates in high school. I met my husband a month before my 19th birthday. He said he took one look and that was it for him. 😍
 
I was an ugly-duckling adolescent....glasses, acne, kinky hair. About half-way through high school, I bloomed and was considered moderately attractive after that. Held on for a while but now I'm a lumpy old lady. I don't scare any dogs, children or pregnant women except at Halloween, but I'm not going to win any beauty contests, either. I just try to keep myself dressed nicely and appropriately and hope for the best.
 
I don't care who was hot or not when they were young. The real question should be, are you hot now or not? There are so many older hot guys and gals now that why should we always be focused on the "young"? I'm way more interested on now. Forget about when we were young! That's past. I want to know about you now! And hot is in the eye of the beholder besides just the physical. Let's not forget that either.

Yes extremely come to think of it. Even hotter than I am now. Which is hard to imagine.
Problem for me was I thought that was all I needed to get a girlfiend.Didnt think charm might be important. You know. Social skills. Being able to relax when communicating. Took me years to realise that women only want us for our ................. (fill in the blank)

MONEY lol
 
Sorry Hypo, this is the song but without all the young hotties, too bad that one isn't available in Australia. Hope you can at least see this video. :)

 
To me, this kind of question is really not dignified for a senior age forum. It's like a teenage type thing. Really, asking someone if they felt they were hot or not in their young years. I mean seriously, should this really be for real? Sure, I could post pictures of myself to prove I was hot or not in my younger years. But what does that prove and what is the point? It's just makes us into some stupid kind of beauty competition.

Okay, I'll post some of mine then if that's being a bit of fun and also my 13-year old boyfriend crush who even at that age was a
hunk. Okay, maybe he'll see himself and contact me. How's that?
