    Just curious as to why everyone in this video appears to be under the age of 25? please don’t tell me this is ageism at its best. Beauty is not determined by ones age! I am 38yo and have been told over and over again(Since i was a child up to the present) just how beautiful I am. However, everything that the people in the video are saying is absolutely true. I don’t feel pretty, I don’t trust anyone. The men only see us as an object and the women only want to be our friends because of the attention we get, positive or not. Am I complaining? I’m not really sure how I feel, but i can tell you that I would love to have a caring, compassionate, HONEST, man that I can trust in my life. Not that I don’t do fine on my own, great job, house, cars, wonderful daughter, but how incredible it would be to share that with someone that I could trust. Oh and some great girlfriends would just be the icing on the cake!!

    I’d like to hear more about the feeling not pretty, and less about them ranting about how beautiful they are.
