Saw this one on Reddit (don’t judge haha) and thought I would see what the collective of Lemmy thought!!

    Every time I reach for something in the supermarket, and my shirt lifts up, and my belly hangs out - I get looks from ALL the ladies.

  • Attractive strangers ask you questions and smile at you. I did a lil “experiment” once in which I tallied/catalogued behavior/treatment towards me with vs without my glasses, unkempt vs styled hair, unflattering vs flattering outfits, etc, and discovered that I definitely experience pretty privilege

      That’s pretty cool that you decide to do this experiment.

      I assume subconsciously or biologically we’re predisposed to “attractive people”. Playing the part (looking spiffy vs not) would heighten the effect.

      Then again, I’m not that smart and just guessing 🙂

    I’m my case: it’s because I keep getting invited to mini-orgies by the men I have sex with.

    It’s definitely bragging, but I’m happy to share this anyways: I can count on one hand the number of weekends where I DIDN’T get invited to one ever since I moved to the Midwest; the body positivity here is MIND BLOWING sometimes!

    I’m retrospect: I wish I had moved here as soon as I could instead of bothering w California or New York.

      Well that’s a little more information then what I was expecting 🙂

      I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself and you now have some bragging rights!!
