They have lost the plot. I m not surprised that such ideation comes out of America. Such segregations are brought in to try fill an ugly personal void that is not understood. If this gets off the ground then yes it will promote discord and anger by segregation, superiority and degrading of fellow humans. We do not need mythical rules of elitism's to engender "superior people". Arrogance needs no support.
Our human attractiveness from a persons personality lasts forever. The skin deep superficial good looks are subject to mood change.
The most attractive and best good looks for me is when I see the face of some one who has just experienced a great boost to their self confidence and self esteem. This is what human happiness is about. I rejoice in this. Nearly80

I am new on here. Well I started yesterday and responded to a few people. I haven't a clue what I am doing. I can't find any of the posts I responded to.
I have read a few new ones today. I have lost the confidence to respond now.
I have been flicking through different pages, reading stuff, a lot of it I already know as I have had depression on and off since I was a young adolescent. PTSD and anxiety jumped on board at some stage when I wasn't paying attention. Most likely at a time when I was lost in the fog.
My son has finally been diagnosed with schizophrenia after slipping through the cracks for so long. He is in denial.
I have read this article even though the title put me off. I just needed to stay on the website somewhere.
I now feel sick to the stomach to discover that this is real. I have said for ages now that many people today are obsessed with taking selfies, messaging each other backstabbing others, facebooking, twitting, instantgrammaring and whatever is the latest. Sorry not meaning to offend anyone on here who does any of these things.
many people are having botox, surgical procedures , experiencing bullying on social media. They are spending thousands on makeup and eyebrows, eyelashes, it goes on and on. all to look the same
This has become out of control. Social media has so much to answer for. These people are trying to alter how they look to fit in and to look the best. But they are all trying to look the same. It is like watching some scifi film
There are so many sites to get help, specialists to see, support groups to assist. it is so confusing
There is just so much of so little. i find it overwhelming. i can only begin to imagine how a young person not accepting that there is something wrong might feel
Then I read this article and all that I can feel is utter despair and sadness. I feel that the health system has been almost diminished. The experts and trained people are leaving in droves. The apathetic and a few empathic ones are left to check over the continuing incoming "mentally unwell" to give them a bandaid and sed them on their way. I cant say send them home because some dont have homes. the waiting lists are endless, the groups assigned to help rely on family and friends taking over as these workers know that there is not much out there that the "mentally ill" can afford.
So back to the article, I found I was asking myself "surely not?" i will get to the bit soon where it turns the message around and states that nobody can segregate the beautiful. who defines who is beautiful. how can anyone say out loud that there are ugly people. I could go on and on and on because that is what is gripping me inside tugging at my throat.
i'll just try to forget that i have read this. I dont want to think about people who are like this. I dont want to further burden myself with concern.
I dont even know if i should be on here. Im not sure which page i should be writing on. i dont even know how to start a post i only understand how to reply. i am feeling very hopeless, lost and so weary. i feel that I have been propping up too many people for too long now. wearing one of my many masks and saying that i am fine. but now that i have an illness and have a son who is diagnosed with an illness it is going to be even harder for the mask to fit. Even more so where do i fit?
