Ngano magsige man gyud istorya kinsa'y gwapo kinsa'y gwapa? I object!

This is sounding too negative man gud nga dili gyud nako tuyo himuon ning negative nga plea. This is I insist not crab mentality, in any sense. You know why I say this? Here's my take:

Let's put that "crab mentality" behavior into the limelight. The perceived negative crab mentality, that is. "Because I can't have it, you can't have it either" mao nay common analogy sa crab mentality. Kay ang mga crabs lagi kuno inside a hole magbinitaray ug kinsay naa na sa taas para dili kagawas ang nag-una sa hole. Now, be mindful of this. Actually, ug imo kunong huwaton unsa gyuy mahitabo sa mga crabs? Eventually makagawas ra silang tanan.

Kung imo gyung tutukan ug ngano pangbitaron sa mga naa sa ubos ang crab nga naa sa taas, that's really not what's happening but instead the crabs who are almost out the hole would grab the other crabs nga naa pa sa ilawm to help them up, mao mangahulog silang naa sa taas. It's actually like a "bayanihan" "tinabangay" effort para silang tanan makagawas sa hole.

Then perhaps we apply this positive analogy of "crab mentality" into this discussion. In order to build a friendly positive environment for human growth and confidence, dili kaayo ta mag-istorya ug makapa cause sa atong isig kataw ug kahiubos, loss of confidence and self-worth kundi atong mas tagaan ug emphasis nga kitang tanan gwapo ug gwapa and help each other build ourselves up. That's all there is to it.

Dili ni buot pasabot nga ako gi promote nga magsuyaay ang ingon nilang gwapo/gwapa sa mga dili gwapo/gwapa (stereotypes lagi) kundi nanghinaut ko nga atong ablihan atong awareness nga in some way (however small or large) dili ta mag promote ug LOOKISM.

i dont think kanang dili gwapo or gwapa will get insecured bcoz they know there are alot of things more important than looks

ehem

padaplin lang ta ani para di ta mapiksan

[--Makoy--]

theres more in life than good looks..

[sakurai999]

i don't mind the gwapo/gwapa forums and i really don't care at all, hehe..i think they were created for the heck of having fun...i see nothing wrong with those threads and i'd rather focus on threads w/c are worth reading..

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

[klavel]

there is descrimination in a sense that only gwapa and gwapo are posted..

whenever those istoryans (that are uhmmm let's say di jud tantong gwapa) might browse that thread..

uhmmmm considered what they might feel?

put yourself on their shoes..

bisag unsaon pa ninyog ingon na wala rana, kay lage kalingaw lang.. etc.. etc..

bisag unsaon ninyog bali-bali naa jud point na makasakit tag taw labi na tong depressant na

gipakataw, kay nganong di xa ing ana etc.. mag self pity dayon chuva!

faet.. gapataka nalang kog yawyaw..

and Ms beau the comparison between juices and RH is almost there..

but juices dont have feelings, do they? ma depress sad diay na sila kay dili sila ang gi prefer tagayon? jewk.

it would be so shallow for a reason if people worry just because they were not in the gwapa/gwapo list...such weak personality...

there's no discrimination...threads such as those were made for fun, pure appreciation of other people's beauty, and personal preference as to who's beautiful...every istoryan is entitled to claim that they're beautiful..just make friends here and they will see it through your personality...

i am not speaking for my self here.
cos i also see my pic posted right at that very thread by a friend.
i just expounded the threadstarter's view.
cos as much as we want to deny it and promote that those topics are created for fun.. there are still other members who might feel a bit itchy while browsing that thread out!

if you will try to re consider my post, you quoted,
i just cited a very good situation which is not impossible at all.

One can only speculate that there are people feeling that way, otherwise you share the same sentiments. It takes one to know one. So basically, if people generally think that way as per situation you cited, I frankly say that they are insecure and shallow minded people.

that's one serious fact.

Seriously, any takers here who'd comment nga na strain ilang self-confidence tungod ani nga mga gwapa/gwapo threads? Seriously

you dont have to be one to feel such..
you just have to open up your mind for possibilities!
sensitivity issues, i guess..
oh c'mon harsh words for an already depressed being! w-t-f#$@%@^

you dont get the bottomline here.
or maybe we dont share the same opinion!

read past posts! phulease

you rather read the first page of the thread.

kinsay may depressed diri? isang kamot

sensitivity or over-reacting? one should know the difference between those two words. if you happen to read the first post of this thread, 'ngel suggested that those threads be deleted because of this and that..and then it evolved to Lookism.


Lookism: discrimination or prejudice based on a person's physical appearance.


sa kadtong mga threads nga iyang pasabot PLEASE site one good example where people who posted there descriminate one's physical appearance.

Those threads are purely made for fun, para makaila kung unsay nawng ani nya, to Appreciate that person's beauty. wala koy nakit-an or never did i feel nga naay descrimination ato nga thread.

so what's the catch here? nga naay tao nga dili gwapo og gwapa nga masubo

I don't get it? examine further kung kinsay nang descriminate here.

kadtong negatibo og huna huna o kadtong positibo

I honestly, honestly don't think naay batig nawng sa kalibutan. one's eyes may differ from the other.

two people may see one same thing but look at it differently. one sees the positive side and one sees the negative side.

so kadtong tao nga nag hunahuna nga naa jud possibility nga naay na depress tungod atong mga threads..

lemme ask you, are they thinking positively or negatively?

kung naa man galing gahuna huna nga naa jud possibility----it means only one thing. those people are the ones who descriminate.

no more no less.

Lookism on the other side --- would only be an issue here sa Istorya kung ibutang na sa forum rules nga

NO ONE is allowed to be a member if you are not good looking.

Lookism for me only exist sa mga shallow minded and would think that a person is less significant because of how he looks physically.
