Have you been judged on looks?
More from OCGirl
I was judged by my looks when I was a kid.
When I was really young, I was judged a lot. I never smiled in my pictures because my teeth were really crooked. I remember being called piranha teeth at times. So, until veneers came along I always smiled like Mona Lisa. But, I think it all boils down to economics. We were really poor and I think when people have very little they become easy targets for judgment. To this day I hate mirrors. I never go to hair salons nor do I go to gyms because I hate the thought of looking in one. I think when people are judged by their looks especially when they are kids it stays with you for a long time. OCgirl
