What do you think looks, or is, trashy? In terms of appearance AND character?

Interested in reading a wide range of opinions. Not intended as a goady thread - I've posted to widen my own perspective.

Excessive small talk and not much else.

Men (and women) with a history multiple partners/spouses.

Father's who choose not to abandon their DC.

Women who degrade themselves online for male attention and money, and the men who pay for it.

Politicians who flouted lockdown 'rules'.

Fake breasts, Only Fans and lipfillers.

...

Fathers who choose not to abandon their DC?
Really?

TranceNation · 05/04/2025 14:48

Fake eyelashes, lip fillers and fake tan + someone who talks about politics all the time.

Giraffes, ducks and caterpillars in paddling pools.

A Duck I get maybe even a Caterpillar but why would a Giaraffe be in a paddling pool. I love to live in your world. 😂

Hair extensions, Botox, Turkey teeth, fake boobs/pecs/butts/calves, fake tan, fake nails, waxed chests, arms and legs on men.

HauntedBungalow · 05/04/2025 14:50

Yeah I hate men with arms and legs.

But, amputation is scumm. What to do?

HauntedBungalow · 05/04/2025 14:38

Wtf is a cosmetic amputation? Are you saying people remove legs that are aesthetically unpleasant?

Fingers, toes, limbs.

Also trashy:
Augmentation of the face with horn implants, and tattooing eyeballs.

Crack/Coke heads.

The open secret of incel culture which is increasingly tolerated.

Men who pretend to like women, support feminism and have lots of female 'friends', who in reality hold women in contempt. Especially when socialising amongst other men in male dominated environments. And the women who turn a blind eye to it.

Littering and flytipping.

BlahPottery · 05/04/2025 14:53

Oh. I almost forgot Donald Trump. In terms of appearance AND character.

Botox on very young women.
Plastic surgery.
Massive fake eyelashes.
Dressing your little girls in clothes they can't get dirty.

What are clothes you can't get dirty?

OhWhistle · 05/04/2025 14:55

You mean it's not spelled SCUMB?

Hereabouts we say "If they come bogging, give them a flogging. For they are scumb. Give nary a crumb."

Clothes that are designer, expensive and for show, not for playing in?

We had a pink flamingo in ours when DD was little. Sadly the dog took a dislike to it and it exploded one summer’s day.

Augmentation of the face with horn implants? Do you need to move this thread to the Paranormal section? If you are seeing a lot of these you have a bigger problem than the merely aesthetic.

To pass judgement and to think somebody looks trashy is trashy.

HauntedBungalow · 05/04/2025 15:10

Op where do you live that you are regularly encountering limbless horn-headed people with tattooed eyeballs? The Chernobyl exclusion zone?

Wow. Poor creature. They're quite large and noisy too so that must have been a horrendous noise and mess.

I was thinking maybe Wigan.

Foughtabadgerandwon · 05/04/2025 15:12

I've had a rethink.

People saying not to judge a book by its cover are absolutely right.

There are myriad reasons people go for a certain look and it doesn't correlate to character.

So I recant any judgement of appearance.

But I stand by my opinions on behaviour.

Very loud, intrusive, selfish, or disruptive behaviour in public is trashy.
