I wouldn't be jealous of her, she's not beautiful to me. She's not unattractive but nothing special that I'd stop and think wow what a stunner.

Yes, she's attractive enough but I see better looking women every day. I wouldn't even notice her if I bumped into her over the milk cartons in my local Tesco.

I do think she's on a massive wind up, and is profitting nicely from it.

Some of you are tearing her appearance to pieces and slagging her off for criticising other women?! Hmm

"tearing her appearance to pieces" is a tad melodramatic.

But the point, surely, is that Ms Brick is selling herself as a great beauty, so gorgeous that women are green with envy and men just can't resist her. So in that context, I don't think it's unreasonable for people to say that they don't think she's all that beautiful. If she was claiming to be a cordon bleu chef, for example, and people felt her recipes were just average, that would be OK to point out too, wouldn't it? It's not like anyone is just randomly discussing her looks. She is the one who made her looks a talking point.

She does actually look better now than she did ten years ago! I think the hair colour suits her wel

I'm curious how her narcissism goes down in France. Anyone know?

Nowomenaroundeh · 20/05/2022 10:35

I agree with some of what she's saying. She is clearly attractive to men based on her observations of how they respond to her.

I have been asked out randomly many many times over the years or approached by men generally. Much more than my conventionally better looking friends. So I have some theories on that. It's just a curious observation. I would never air these theories in real life though, I would sound ridiculous. So I applaud her on that.

And I agree with her that looking pretty, elegant is so much more appealing to men than ott hair and nails.

What I strongly strongly object to however is her assumption that everyone is (or should) motivated by how they appear to men, that all women are competing with each other for men's approval and that women don't like her based purely on jealousy. They don't like her because she's nasty.

Someone piss in your cornflakes this morning ? @Paranoiacore

I like Samantha Brick.
I’m sure she has fun winding up other women.
Her self confidence is what men probably find attractive and I think she is more beautiful now than she was in the first article.
Theres nothing wrong in loving yourself, it’s better than being an anxiety ridden over thinker like me.

The thing is, we only see her in photos. We don't know what she's like in real life, so can't judge.

I think she probably has got very, very good skin. So had Marilyn Monroe. Someone who met Marilyn described how it was just luminous and hard to to do justice to in words. Princess Diana had good skin. There might be some biological imperative to having a sex hormone which makes your skin glow. It might be a sex pheromone thing which only potential reproductive mates pick up on.

Some men are devastatingly attractive without it being easy to say just why they are so much more attractive than other men. Case in point - Harry Styles. He seems capable of attracting any number of famous and beautiful women. I've never seen him in real life. Perhaps he has a strong sex hormone magnetising women.

I wouldn't argue with either example, unless I'd seen them in the flesh.

Why did you resurrect an old thread, just to be unpleasant @Paranoiacore?

What is your reasoning for this? You know it will be deleted as you are a pretty crap troll ? What's the point?

StupidSmallFruit · 12/10/2022 06:58

Just ignore 🙏
