There is no such thing as an ugly woman

I’m convinced. And I’m also exaggerating kind of but not really because I know they are few and far in between; therefore rare. I've seen enough make-over shows in my life to understand that no matter how ugly a woman might seem at first corneal destruction, no matter how much her eyebrows look like dried mud-streaks on her forehead, or how bright the radioactive lipstick she uses makes her lips, or how her mistreated tooth-brush of a cranium has sprouted straw like strands of hair ...

There is no such thing as an ugly woman..

And I'm not saying they're not ugly because they are beautiful on the inside. Of course there are those women who give so much of themselves every day that you can't help but be in awe when you're around them--how can you really turn the other cheek? How can you work those two jobs and still make it to your daughter's soccer game? How did you hold that marriage together? How did you forgive him, and forgive him again?

--Who are so magnificent that even if they ran the risk of slitting your throat open with their snaggle tooth, you would ask yourself the question: "Could I really be in a relationship with this swamp thing?" And you cry because the answer is yes, you can, when you realize that the physical really means little in the long run. Because even when they're ugly, they're beautiful because of it.

But discounting them. There is no such thing as ugly women. I haven't seen them. Maybe there are conditions that make them look better, like darkness and drunkness, but ugliness ... doesn't exist. And I wish I was young again so I could believe in ugliness, but I realize now what I realized then, that there really isn't ugly women, and how this whole ugly duckling into a Swan thing is a matter of socialization--we're just trying to fit in when we call them ugly!

But they're not. And it's beautiful, because now we can't objectify ... we can only glorify and appreciate. Eff. "Ugly" people are people too, and they have feelings, and just because you feel fat sometimes doesn't mean you should make yourself feel better by comparing their faces to rocks.

I Love you.
