Is it normal for men to comment openly about girls? Do they think it is charming to tell tell us about our physical flaws in public? Maybe this happens with me on a regular basis, so i have taken it to be their second nature.
What's more, i try to make amends with my hurt ego by buying clothes and i get booed off by eve-teasers. A new low for me. Getting booed off the streets by eve-teasers. I know i shouldn't take their remarks into consideration. However, to point out the deep dark secret - No matter how much a girl says she hates eve teasers, they are one of the many promoters of beauty. In their own cheap, vulgar way, they let you know - 'Honey, you look gorgeous'. And to tell you the truth, a girl, who gets such harassment on a daily basis, will wonder to herself whether she was looking bad, if she went unnoticed one day.
It is quite rare that i have come across a guy who liked me just the way i am. For over five years now, almost every boy has said this line to me," You are pretty, but, you would be gorgeous if you were thin." or even the more hands-on sentence, "I like you, but i would have loved you if you were thinner."
It would be a surprise if one day a handsome six feet tall man came upto me and said he liked me on the first glance. That doesn't happen to me even after a year of knowing each other. Almost all the men in my life have stopped at liking me as their friend. The excuse - You are kinda too fat. There have been a few admirers (why won't there be? I am beautiful!) However, i have screwed it up many times and just lost hope now.
I got off track there for a minute, sinking too much into self pity. However, i am still stumped about the comments passed towards me. It was not enough to just stare and snicker quietly. They took a step further to make their remarks official by being loud enough to be heard. Maybe i could just forget about the whole incident like a normal person would do, but somehow, this hurt like hell!
