Liezel's aversion to her void of narcissism
I am sporadically boggled with an unrequited self callipygous love.
The word callipygian means: Having beautifully proportioned buttocks.
"Pyg" is the morphonemic unit which means ass. Platypygian refers to a wide, flat rear end, and a "pygist" is a buggery enthusiast.
Though I lollop through life with dreams of becoming the next supermodel under 5"10; I have realized that self-love has been that condition in our spirits that allow us to live life without the self's doubt. I never fancied myself as being a "looker". Fearing of my sounding too pompous, my charming and quick-witted personality is usually what catches one's attention. In all honesty, I'm quite comfortable with myself. I have certain body hangups, to be sure, but it's more of what is deemed beautiful that keeps me skeptical.
Society has stamped a barbie doll delusion for women of all ages. In turn, creating a world of absurdity and needless jealousy. Note certain fad diets will consist of such: Having side salads with any fat free dressing, diet soda, low fat pretzels, cigarettes & coffee, skinless chicken sandwiches without the works, omitting french fries with meals, exploring flavored rice cakes, and learning to enjoy soy. Personally, I'm content with a slice of pizza and a tall pint of beer. I go to meals without the calorie counting so that I may actually enjoy eating. None of this "I'm full. I had a few jelly beans, fruit cup, and half a M & M" nonsense. Women have gone to physical extremities to keep pace with these "My Size" barbies. There are certain groups of individuals who have paved the way to anorexic & eating disorder hell; we usually refer to them as self-centered bitches. The first group are the "digitally enchanced" models who grace numerous magazine covers;often mistaken for being natural beauties. Another group are models/actresses who have one-liners in big budget films; proving not only are they beautiful, but can actually read. Their use of big words such as "overrated" and "over dramatic" will further their careers, indeed. The dancers are a rare group who never miss a beat or the opportunity to showcase more than just a bare mid-riff and cut off shorts in music videos. They also possess the uncanny ability to do just about anything in stiletto heels. Finally, the women who go under the knife on a weekly basis to keeping up their "looks" and their self-esteem.
It may be different for men, but I know that they are just as conscious about their bodies as women. Justin Timberlake will be my poor example of what a man may think is considered sexy to women. Sexiness varies on the man himself in my opinion. Some men will spend most of their waking moments in the gym in hopes of pumping some iron and raising testerone levels to new heights. Why do men need the excessive muscle bulk? If you can't swing your arms in front of you due to the bulkness of your muscle mass, how can you give out hugs? That's not attractive at all, fellas. There are also other routes men undergo to sprucing up their looks: Spraying shoe polish on their bald spots, overdoing exercise routines (while breaking your back & neck in the process), "combing over" the surviving strands of hair left on your head, sucking in the buddha belly when chicks walk by, getting calve or bicep implants to display a new & improved bodybuilder physique, or waxing the nether regions of the body to achieve the smooth "swimmer" look. I can offer a bit of advice; otherwise, avoid all contact with women from this point on. Men are expected to be the tall, dark, and handsome types. Not everyone can be Justin Timberlake, and we wouldn't want you to be! All we ask is that you get out of your local gym for the "yet to be classified" smells from the locker room has clouded your better judgements. Women are attracted to confidence, adventurous personalities, intelligence, sense of humor, and spontaneity. Stop worrying about your ear hair; we really don't give a damn that the hairs in your earlobes have a life all on their own. We like you the way you are. Body hangups and all. If you want to change your look because you want to look and feel better, we're right behind you cheering you on. Do it for the girl you stalk who lives downstairs; however, the plan of asking her out can be ruined knowing damn well she has a boyfriend who can beat you up.
My void of narcissism can only lead me to believe that I will never be crowned Ms. America. It's not that I wouldn't be able to take part in the pageant and do well as a contestant. I'm beautiful in my own right and I can live without the beauty title draping over my fireplace to remind me. I probably won't grace the cover of People magazine. It's also safe to say I won't be shaking my rump shaker in a music video anytime soon. I probably won't get my own reality tv show on Fox. I can forget about traveling the world and doing calendar photo shoots. I'd have to cancel my plans for getting plastic surgery and becoming a human floating device and playtoy for men everywhere. There was a time I wanted to look like the "pretty girls". In the past, I would have done anything to achieve that self-centered goal. Now, I've accepted the fact that I'm not like those "too beautiful" for real life women. Nor do I want to be. Simply put, I rather have someone fall head over heels in love with my ability to charm the pants off of people than have any physical attributes mask my inner beauty. ( I mean, I do have a great ass, but that's beside the point) Confidence is by far the most attractive characteristic one can showcase to others. I may not don the "barbie doll" look, but I sure as hell can rock a "Liezel" look with great pride. Beauty comes in all forms. In my case, it's packaged nicely in a petite and sassy asian chick.
All this is derived from a conversation I had with women bitching about their appearances during our lunch break.
