Whenever someone shares a photo, even a partial one, it’s obvious they are stunning! Is it just me who isn’t!?

OP posts:
Frogmarch89 · 23/11/2023 12:15

Nah its just only people who know they are gorgeous are going to be comfortable sharing a photo!

Celticliving · 23/11/2023 12:16

I'm fat and ugly so wouldn't be sharing pics on MH to show-off.

YesThatsATurdOnTheRug · 23/11/2023 12:17

Haha nooooo

Creepybookworm · 23/11/2023 12:17

I look like a troll and wouldn't post my photo on here even if I was gorgeous.

I bet you don't.

Spinet · 23/11/2023 12:18

I am. Top totty me. Can't speak for anyone else.

Syndulla · 23/11/2023 12:18

I'm definitely not. I'm not ugly, I'm just very plain.

IHeartGeneHunt · 23/11/2023 12:19

I'm bloody lovely.

backtowinter · 23/11/2023 12:20

There was a pic last week with lots of "you look stunning OP" and the OP clearly thought she was femme fatale. I was nonplussed.

Not sure if it's limited to Mumsnet too. Loads of "gorgeous hun" on Facebook too

LightDrizzle · 23/11/2023 12:20

I’m not, and I don’t agree that most photos shared here are of stunning people. Probably fairly representative of the population.

Has there been a recent stunner on a prominent thread or something? People rarely share full face photos. I’ve seen a few photos asking advice over hair cuts or colours but most of them have some of the face obscured.

Americano75 · 23/11/2023 12:20

I'm fucking stunning but sadly it just never seems to come across in photos.

Wildo · 23/11/2023 12:21

I have to admit I’ve posted a pic on style and beauty and got a lot of compliments- comparing me to Angelina Jolie and Arwen from Lord of the Rings. I wish!

Posted a flattering pic (to show eyebrows). Photo was the one I took for my work profile pic - used an ungodly amount of contour to give myself a jawline. Wouldn’t have shared a candid. I’m not photogenic.

Yes me too. Do you think our cameras are faulty? 😁

bombastix · 23/11/2023 12:24

No. I've got bags that I could use for shopping.

MistyGreenAndBlue · 23/11/2023 12:25

Well I am. I don't know about everyone else. 🤷‍♀️

It's these new camera phones. They're jealous of my beauty.

SoRainbowRhythms · 23/11/2023 12:29

I have the face of an angel and the body of Cindy Crawford.

Colinswheels · 23/11/2023 12:33

I once received a backhanded compliment that I am "quite pretty" whatever that means. I am also extremely unphotogenic, particularly in selfies. I would never post my picture on here and agree that its skewed as only the very good looking posters do.

(I also maintain that the parents race at sports day is skewed as none of the unfit parents run and this alone is the reason I am always near to last)

Dulra · 23/11/2023 12:34

Absolutely inside and out 👌

Beezknees · 23/11/2023 12:34

I wouldn't call myself gorgeous but don't think I'm bad looking. I wouldn't post photos here though as I want to stay anon!

SurelySmartie · 23/11/2023 12:34

I look horrendous in photos and am convinced there’s something wrong with cameras. And screens.

MrsMarzetti · 23/11/2023 12:34

Bloody tall and gorgeous me but i am not posting a photo or you will notice i am short and gorgeous😂

Oohh i missed this, can you link it please?

frecklejuice · 23/11/2023 12:36

Nope I'm fat and not fair of face so def wouldn't put my photo on here! I think you'll find the only ones that do are the attractive ones!!

ZenNudist · 23/11/2023 12:37

I know I am! Can't speak for anyone else.
