        Yup - lots of work, at the moment. Must stop procrastinating on HP. hmm

        My take on the argument: Maximus is simply seeking to argue for the sake of it, therefore is not worth responding to smile

        Why should any of you ladies have to justify yourselves?

    *snickers*   KCC is actually, Karen, a 46 yr old married female from Texas.   Those who have known me a long time know the story behind the monkey.  The monkey is a tribute to my daddy who died just a month before I joined HubPages.  There is a hub about the story behind it if anyone wants to know more.

      And this is why one can not guess who or what people are ... but I still think of ya the same KCC, so finding out you are a woman only allows me the fun chance of correcting the next one who guesses wrong. smile

      And as I said ... avatars are more created to express ourselves than to conceal ourselves - and I can think of no better way to express one's self than by creating an avatar in honor of another ... to me, that shows a person who cares deeply about others, but then again, I already knew this about you KCC. smile

    I will say this, from personal experience.
    If a hubbber switches to a real, current (as opposed to baby) photo after having used a graphic or photo avatar for some time,the adjustment is quite jolting.
    Whereas, hubbers who start and get known with their actual photo can change to another photo more easily,
    This is probably an unnamed but perfectly legitimate science about the selection of avatar and personality....
    Fascinates me but I can hear some unmuffled yawning...

    Wow, I really opened a can of worms here, or actually Max has. I was thinking originally about men using beautiful women avatars to entice extra clicks.
    I'm fairly new here and don't know everyone but maybe cabingirl doesn't really look like cabingirl? If you know what I mean. So if that's the case, how about it cabingirl, any extra clicks?
    There's so much more to people then the way they look. Looks really are only skin deep and shouldn't have anywhere near the importance that they are given! Some of the most beautiful people I know are ones whom some would call fat, ugly, old, etc.

    Jery, that's what I thought your thread was supposed to be about, as well.  Apparently, however, for all the stereotypes some people on here have chosen to notice, that person has not had the opportunity, in real life, to also notice/experience the Cinderella/Ugly Step-Mother and Step-Sisters stereotype or the Snow White/Wicked Queen "syndrome".

    It wasn't a can of worms that was opened here.  It was a can of misogyny.  The world is full of people who don't want to believe that women can be both beautiful on the inside and on the outside.  That would just be too much for any misogynist to deal with.  After all, if he had an unattractive but brilliant and kind girlfriend that would mean he hadn't managed to get an attractive girlfriend/wife; and if he had an attractive but not-so-intelligent and/or kind a girlfriend/wife it would also mean he hadn't been able to attract someone who "had everything going for them" (including looks, intelligence, and a kind heart).

    The same goes for narcissists, who need to be Number 1 and need to feel superior.  If their own girlfriend/wife happens to have all three things going for them the narcissist won't acknowledge it because if he does he won't be Number 1 in comparison to her.  If his girlfriend/wife doesn't have all three things going for her he can't feel superior to other men, who may have girlfriends/wives who do.

    So, whether it's a misogynist or a narcissist (or even a forum troll), there's too much for such a person to lose by ever backing down on the kind of ridiculous, deluded, stance taken at the beginning of, and throughout, this thread.

    Curious fact time.

    The most vociferous complainants in this thread - Lisa HW, Cabingirl, Star Winess and Yoshi - have all chosen to hide behind an avatar.

    Perhaps they have the most to complain about. If their true appearance is somewhat lacking in visual delight, is it not safer for them to hide themselves behind a fake representation rather than to reveal themselves to the world and risk ridicule.

    That completes the thought for the day.  smile

    Colebabieposted 14 years ago

    Curious opinion time.

    I haven't been a part of this thread but I feel that are multiple reasons why someone chooses their avatar and whether or not to use actual pictures of themselves. Most people could care less (or notice a difference) in regards to page views. I think people who use avatars rather than actual pictures are doing a greater service to their writing. Reading someone's work without knowing much of the author (appearance-wise) allows the work to be better understood.

    Someone could look at someone's picture first and think, "She looks like a bimbo, he's a tool, that picture is obviously from the 70s, that's definitely not her, what a fake...or even... she's beautiful, he's hott, that's sweet, I wouldn't kick her/him outta bed, etc."

    Either way, positive or negative thoughts, it sets the tone before you read. Sometimes its just better to be neutral. And that is more likely with an avatar than a picture.

      Cheap cop-out I'm afraid. This is the classic 'authors incognito' trap.

      By not revealing who they are, they believe their 'work' and I use the term loosely, carries a greater weight and prestige. They seem to think that if they were to reveal their true identity that it would in someway contaminate their work and make it less valuable. Of course, it's also highly likely the fear of rejection has forced budding authors to play the 'authors incognito' game as a way of deflecting rejection from themselves and onto the 'persona' they create.

      1. Lisa HW profile image62
        Lisa HWposted 14 years agoin reply to this

        Colebabie has it exactly right (the way she so often gets things right on here).

        Maximus, on the other hand, has slipped from just believing in incorrect stereotypes (or pretending to) into imagining things and wishful thinking.  On the one hand, I have no need or wish to defend myself (or my appearance) to someone like this.  On the other, I do get a kind of perverse joy out of responding to this kind of foolishness. 

        Maximus, the writing I do on here is hobby writing.  I'm no "budding author".   I've written professionally, so I do hobby writing in order to be able to write what I feel like writing (rather than what someone else hires me to write).  Even with it just being hobby writing, I'll put any number of my 200-and-however many Hubs up against your 4 any day.  (If, by any chance, you've written a few more overnight then those too.)   If there's any "incognito" it has nothing to do with the baloney you've concocted in your head.  Because much of my casual writing is also based on personal experience I write under a pen name and don't include my picture because I'm a decent enough person not to want to have potential employers/clients and/or family members' friends Google me and see more of our personal business than any of us would prefer (although, when it comes down to it, I don't really have anything embarrassing written about any of us - just more personal story than is either wise professionally or else that may be desirable to family members.

        My writing is what it is; and, believe it or not, there are people who don't give a rat's bottom about prestige. (Everybody but Maximus, please overlook the next obnoxious statements that I can't resist making...):  I don't have to worry about "rejection".  No editor I've ever worked for has changed my work, and on every "personal-writing" writing site where I write I have good ratings, scores, stars (whatever the site uses to measure quality writing).  They're right up on the Internet where anyone can see them, so feel free. I'm sure there are plenty of people who don't like the kind of writing I do, but there are plenty who do.  No secure writer in the world ever expects 100% of readers to like the kind of writing he does.

        As for that appearance thing, I selected my avatar because it's Earth (a non-gender-associated thing and kind of a nice "message") and yet the picture isn't too Earthy and is, instead, but also a kind of feminine picture too.  Imagine what you want from that.  HubPages isn't the Miss America Pageant, and it isn't a dating site.  The day I want/need any dates and have any trouble meeting someone in "real life" I'll happily post my picture on the appropriate site.  (FYI:  Imagining what people "must think" or "seem to think" is seldom a wise thing to do; and reading a whole, big, conjured-up, thing into the simple choice to use an avatar is equally misguided.)

          Star Witnessposted 14 years agoin reply to this

          I want to thank Lisa for her excellent comments.  In fact, it was her comments concerning gender and image, etc. on previous forum posts that made me consider using a non-photo avatar for forum writing.  I have done this partially as an experiment on perception.

          I am also not a newbie professionally as an author or designer and my work has been well received on an international basis.  Lisa is also correct in that for those truly engaged with an avocation, 'image and prestige and glamor' and the emphasis of that are secondary.  I don't even emphasize that sort of thing on my real-life photo profile.

          Maximus' ideas are truly stereotypes (and not only that--they are stereotypes based mainly on misogyny).  If what is presented here IS the sum total of his thoughts and contributions, no wonder he is carrying around so much fear (and I want to emphasize it is his fear) in regards to presentation in creative work...or appearance.

        blue dogposted 14 years agoin reply to this

        max, does this same belief hold true to your claim of being a "photographer"?  most photographers i know are proud of their work, and will openly provide a website (maybe it's there on your profile page and i've failed to "see" it, if so, disregard the comment).  of course, they are real "photographers" and are comfortable with themselves and "it's also highly likely the fear of rejection" means little if anything to them.  "what is real, asked the rabbit."

        ps - instead of carrying around a match.com chip on your shoulder, you might consider joining getalife.com. it's a safe bet that all the women of match who wouldn't give you the blink of an eyelash are thinking that very thought.

        Colebabieposted 14 years agoin reply to this

        Max I hope you realize that the "fear of rejection" in regards to revealing an actual photo of themselves may be the case in some instances, but definitely not all or even most. In my case, I use a part of a picture of myself. Don't care what people think about it. Don't use the whole pic because I don't feel comfortable with strangers having a picture of me. Silly maybe, but it makes me feel more comfortable. Additionally, I write and post on forums occasionally. I also work two jobs and go to school full time. Definitely not sitting in front of the computer all day smile But anyways, you may be right when it comes to a few people, but saying it applies to everyone or even most... ugh nope.

        But asking you a personal question... and of course you don't have to answer. But if your avatar is you, you're a good looking guy. And if looks has so much to do with personality and self esteem I assume you'd have the confidence to meet someone in person. Of course confidence isn't the only quality, but I'm just wondering. You seem to have an active life, so just because you use your actual picture you have those qualities you suggested?

          Maximus591posted 14 years agoin reply to this

          You contradict yourself.

          'You don't care what people think of your picture'.. then you say... 'I don't feel comfortable with strangers having a picture of me' So, clearly you do care. It makes you feel uncomfortable. What do you suppose these dark, mysterious strangers would do with your ever-so-tightly-cropped-black-and-white-picture?

          This is an interesting one.

          Fear or perceived fear is often used as an excuse for not being real or true to yourself. Anyone who uses an avatar to hide behind is not being true to themselves. They are cowards. Whatever excuse they choose to use - 'I don't like anyone seeing me' ... 'I'm an author, I'm so far stuck up my own arse that it is my authors privilige to remain incognito', 'I'm really very unattractive, I cannot reveal my true appearance through fear of being rejected'...'I'm a female, I'm just well, you know, feel, erm, uncomfortable because I'm well, a female, you know' <<<<----- I just love this one some females use, it's thoroughly devoid of logic....'I don't want any of my friends or family seeing me'... 'I'm experimenting with different personas and gender identities, if I use an avatar it's safer for me to hide my persona/gender identity, so no-one really knows who or what I am' <<<<--- frankly, this one is beyond pathetic.

          Coclusion : Those who use fake pics/avatars are cowards. Plain and simple.

                    There is no circumstance that I would not understand.

                    Whatever the circumstance is - fear and cowardice - will go some way in underpinning that circumstance.

                    It's just that it's easier for cowards to hide behind 'Oh, you just won't understand my circumstance' rather than admit that its a fear - real or otherwise - that underpins their behaviour.

            I don't care what people think about my looks. I use a part of my actual picture. But I don't like someone looking at my full pic everytime they go to read a hub. I just do not want people I do not know having a picture of me. So I use a cropped picture of myself that strangers can't do anything with. smile People know who I am, what I do for a living, etc. but as far as being able to use my picture for something, I don't feel comfortable putting it out there. I think I'm good looking, I think I've posted a full pic of myself somewhere on here. But for someone to access it every time they look me up, eh no thanks.
            The rest of your post doesn't apply to me. So I'll leave it alone smile

            Conclusion: People who use fake pics or avatars are none of your business. And you are wasting time concerning yourself with it.

    hi to everybody!

    I will say my final say on this issue, thanks Lisa HW for all your comments!

    pre conceived notion of people due to their avatar is not at all correct, we cant judge people by their avatar. there are various reasons why people choose such avatars.

    to maximus, I hope u can still read this, I am not stallion or whatever or I am hiding because I am a male etc.I am a woman who loves to watch sports and I have children too. Yes I am pretty really according to friends and my parents lol.... I just chose the horse as my avatar because I like horses, I have collections of them (figurines), and I took care of two horses when I was growing up.And beauty really is in the eye of the beholder....and yes health tip is also right, all women are beautiful in their own rights, to their lovers, they are the most beautiful woman in the world

    I have nothiong to prove to u, dont put people in a box!

      'All women are beautiful' is a bogus statement. It's meaningless. If such a statement was really true then beauty could not exist. The baseline would become corrupted as the aesthetic excellence of beauty would be diluted by all the fatties. You would no longer have classifications such as 'fat' or 'ugly' or 'beautiful'. This is what the aesthetically challenged females want. They want equality. They want their 'inner beauty' to radiate outwards and no longer be judged on how they look physically but to be judged on who they are. The essence of them. The total package if you like. Well, my dougnut munching fatties, that's not how the world works. The world owes you no favours.

      'All women are beautiful' statements are merely consoling statements. They are an attempt by those who feel they don't shape up in the beauty stakes, to make themselves feel better.

      But if you really wanted to make yourself feel better, they why not attend the gym fives times a week? Or do some bunjee jumps (assuming you can find a rope strong enough - haha)

    Ok, so this is my take on the argument so far.

    Models are thin and beautiful, writers are fat and ugly.

    Max claims that writers are fat because they sit around all day staring at computer screens thinking about what to write. But writers aren't the only people who do this. What about people who work in an office all day. A large number of them are just sitting, staring at computer screens. I'm sure we could all think of jobs that involve little or no exercise, which would mean (according to Max) that they are fat. I'm not going to comment on the beautiful/ugly thing because I genuinely think that different people see beauty in different ways. And often models are chosen because they look interesting, not necessarily classically beautiful.

    Ergo, models are thin and (debatably) beautiful. A large majority of other people are fat and ugly. (This is obviously rubbish).

    Now as for the fact that all models are stupid with no personality and fat people are intelligent, funny with lots of personality ... I imagine that a lot of models diet to get themselves down to the right size in order to be a model (they don't become models). A lot of models I think are really not that attractive until they put a lot of make-up on. They might drop out of school (or not go into higher education) in order to pursue modelling. i.e. they do not become models because of their size, looks, personality ... they mould these things so they can be a model. So there may be SOME correlation between intelligence and models, but I don't by any means mean that this applies to them all. I don't know any models so I couldnt possibly say for definite.

    Now what about me? I'm not thin enough to be a model. I'm not fat though. I am the right weight for my height and by definition that is not fat. So unless Max has his own unique way of judging fat and thin (in which case what he says makes even less sense) I am neither fat nor thin, which I imagine actually applies to many people here anyway. So that leaves us at an alrite weight and an alrite writer ... I think I can settle for that.

    jenblacksheep, very cleverly and efficiently summed up.  lol

    Now what we could address is this generalization:  "Everyone with a screen name that starts with the letter, 'M', eats pink Marshmallow Fluff and oatmeal for dinner."  (I don't care what anyone tells me.  I've seen people with 'M' names eating Marshmallow Fluff and oatmeal for dinner.  There's no point in anyone arguing anything else.  These people think pink Marshmallow is healthy, and they think eating oatmeal will make them sing better.  I just know for a fact that I'm right about this 'M-name thing)  (Also, everyone with an "M-name" on here must be insecure and in fear of rejection....)

    FD, you probably just don't fit into either of his stereotypes, and so he has to make some excuse as to why he won't judge you. I spent a lot of time responding to this thread earlier, hoping for some analysis on where I stand in regards to the two stereotypes, or even a rude comment in response that i could argue with. But I got nothing, so I can only assume that I don't fit a stereotype either.

      Furthermore, what makes you think I should reply to each and every comment? Just because you take umbrage at what I say and put across your piece motivated by a sense of injustice or whatever, that in turn, I must then respond to your sense of injustice as a way of placating you? I don't think so.

    Ladies, I think Max has got to be one of those "forum trolls" mentioned earlier. He seems to be pushing every button he can, and quite effectively at that.
    Physical beauty does get you "things" in this world we live in, but in the end won't amount to anything at all. When it's all said and done, those people who think their physical looks are going to make a difference will be sadly mistaken.
    Worrying, (Max) about how you "look" to others is such a vain waste of time!  Your physical appearance really has little to do with real beauty, to my way of thinking.
    For instance, I find "real beauty" in some of the writing here on Hubpages that has nothing to do with the persons image (I could care less what they "look" like!)
    Real beauty is who you are, I see real beauty all the time and I don't even have to look at an image of them!

    If I told you what I look like has no reflection on the number of people I draw in, it would be a lie. 

    I have experimented here with avatars and twice I posted my stripper silhouette and twice my fan base increased. Immediately.

    However, those fans left no comment and I had to figure out who they were.  Both men and women.  Mostly men. 

    Those fans do not leave comments on my Hubs now nor do I suspect they even know who I am.

    I'll stick with the real fans thank you.  The ones that give back and I enjoy giving to for who I really am.

    this isn't the first time i have read negative or hostile comments re: professional writers on this site. as a professional writer myself, i am compelled to respond to this drivel.

    first of all, there are many brilliant women writers who i am not going to waste time listing, some of them pulitzer winners, who are NOT fat.

    or ugly.

    i have to wonder why you think that if a woman is a good writer it must mean she looks like a dog's breakfast. you also say writers have a deep-seated need to be loved - WHO DOESN'T?

    second, why single out women? why not apply your spurious reason to include male writers?

    do you know any women writers, or is this just an asssumption on your part? how many do you know, and how familiar are you with their day-to-day workday activities?

    since i am a writer, let me fill you in on a typical workday for the technical writer, 'k?

    most technical writers work in highly technical environments and have a wide range of individuals they must interact with on a daily basis. many technical writers work for companies like honeywell, motorola or intel, which have offices on huge campuses with several stories and buildings. each building is huge and the technical writer must meet with many people throughout the day, including engineers, programmers, marketing personnel, managers, etc. as well as visit prototype labs, which requires more daily legwork than that of an average office worker. many people the writer needs to talk to are in other buildings on the campus, which the writer must walk to. they also must visit places offsite such as print and copy services, as well as external clients.

    for the freelance writer, it can be even more labor-intensive, as a techncal writer can be juggling several clients at once. the technical writer does not "sit on their a$$" dreaming at their desk all day.

    as far as using "pretty avatars" to attract fans...all the pretty avatars in the world aren't going to attract and keep fans if your writing sucks!!! anyone who fans me and whose loyalty i earn does it because i'm a good writer, period.

    you say you are a photographer...would you like it if someone painted photographers with mean stereotypes or unfair and false generalities?

    i'm not going to bother engaging you further but i am also not going to let you disparage writers this way.

It's as if, claiming to be a writer has endowed them with almost mythical abilities. That to write is a grand and noble profession unequalled by anything else on the planet. You write. You knock a few words together. You don't save the world.

      Furthermore, if you really were a writer with an outstanding pedigree you simply would not be here. You would not be posting your tedious meanderings in a frivolous forum such as this. You wouldn't. You really wouldn't. So, I guess you're maybe not such a hot deal in the writing stakes as you seem to think you are.

      What's more, why would I care what you thought of photographers. Are all the photographers in the world suppose to slump to their knees, crushed and demoralised because the fake writer (you) has passed comment?

      Step back and analyse what you're saying. If you analyse well enough you may actually learn something from this experience. But I suspect you won't.

            lol   This thing is still going on?

            Agreed on the bad-hair thing.  Anyone can look at a picture of a guy, size up his "hair-do", and figure out a lot about his personality.  The wrong hair-do on a guy is like the guy's wearing a sign that says, "I'm a little jerk, but I aimed for a cool hair-do in the hopes of compensating for my lack of substance, intellect, and emotional well-adjustedess."   Sometimes (maybe in the case of Josh, here), it's just a bad choice of a "do" for a photo.  Other times it's the hair-do the guy has all the time.  Josh is an actor.  I suppose his bad hair-do can be written off as one of his hair stylist's mistakes.  Some hair-do's just scream, "I spend way too much time looking in the mirror, and I like what I see way out of proportion to what other people see in reality."  Poor Josh.  His hair stylist ought to be fired.  lol  Old Josh had better watch out.  Star or not, he'll find himself without anyone interested in him and desperately signing up with online dating services to meet someone.   lol

    In another forum, I made the mistake of complaining about a hub I was mislead into visiting that featured fat housewives from India. I just about got my head cut off (virtually, of course). I was informed that not only am I ethnocentric, I also don't respect the fact that hubpages is a place for people of all tastes. If you want to write a hub and fill it with nothing but pictures of beautiful (or ugly) people that were borrowed from other sites on the Internet, many hubbers will support you!

    Max, you said the "all women are beautiful" statement is bogus. But isn't beauty in the eye of the beholder? My husband, for example, has always preferred big women. And I find Jery himself more attractive than Brad Pitt. Brad is just a little too "pretty" for me. See? Everyone has a different idea of beauty. I find Gene Leavy incredibly sexy. All my friends think I'm nuts because of it!

    So here's another question: Can someone be sexy without being beautiful, and vice-versa? I vote YES!

    1. Jery profile image61
      Jeryposted 14 years agoin reply to this

      My vote is a yes as well. And because beauty really is in the eye of the beholder, ANYONE can be considered beautiful and/or sexy. It doesn't matter if anyone disagrees or not!

      Now, how can i put this without reducing you to an emotional wreck?

      I know, I will just slam right in there head first... it is my unique style afterall.

      Ok, where do we start Mon cherie? It's fair to say you're a lady of some heft, correct? A big mama if you like. As a big mama your perception of beauty will already be influenced by your own physical attributes. How you are physically, becomes the filter for things you find beautiful. This does not mean you find people of equal heft just as beautiful. Your hubby may well be an anemic looking garden rake. But, physically and genetically you will be attracted to items of beauty that already fit with your physical and geneitic make-up. So, it's easy to explain why you would not find a guy like Brad Pitt as sexually aluring as say a guy who many would discount as sexy.

      Absolutely they do. That's why in your mind you have clearly developed a stunning crush on me. You clearly think, or a part of you thinks, that genetically and physically I resemble you in some way.

      That is why you find me irresistible. I get this all time so i can deal with it. smile

              The answer will be no.

              I already know what you look like. Your words have done a good enough job in painting a picture of your appearance more so than any photo would. This is one instance where I'm truly thankful you haven't replaced your avatar with a real picture.

                Em, I have not identified if I were male or female.  That's very interesting... If I were female, however, I would obviously already have a much more valid, handsome guy, and not be seriously interested in what a garden variety troll thought.  I have noticed you unconsciously pick up verbiage from my posts and spread it around like garden manure, however.

                Painting pictures, redheads, trolling.  What can it all mean? 

                You've a real case of narcissism going.  Sure you don't need some tips on how to have success with the ladies?

                  You are female.

                  Despite your anonymity you are definitely female or a very effeminate man. Or perhaps even a short haired lesbian.

                  I don't think you're a fatty. I dont sense a breathless chubbyness in your rantings. However, you are not attractive. That is a given fact. On the bell curve of attractiveness, you comfortably fall well short of the median. Oh dear.

                    Self assessment and self knowledge is a very good thing.  You should try it sometime.  May keep you from over photo-shopping your 'photo' with a little digital plastic surgery...  Enjoying the parallel structure you keep picking up (and obviously remember well) from my previous posts.
