I can't stop thinking about how weird it felt to say this. Like, it's a common, well-known thing that people want - entire industries are built around people wanting to be cool & sexy. But it feels weirdly taboo to actually admit it.https://twitter.com/imhinesmi/status/1231077111835889669 …

Like, beauty & status are supposed to be effortless. Being seen as actively wanting these things makes you have less of them, somehow? But they're skills you can cultivate. The people who are best at them obviously want them, by revealed preferences if nothing else.

Maybe this is just because I'm a guy who's bad at The Social. So I've never really been liked by people, or thought of as pretty, or even had "being pretty" as an option. I bet girls who were popular in school would have a very different experience.
