[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to agree that I’ve met very few truly ugly people.

To answer the question, no. I would encourage my child to be as well-groomed as possible. A haircut (they are both male), good skin, manicured hands, and well fitting clothes will take you very far.[/quote]

+1, and most of the "ugly" people I have met would have been fine with some dental work, a decent haircut, and better grooming. Not supermodels, but not someone you'd ever single out for being ugly.

Also many people who get labeled as ugly have birth defects or disabilities. Would you tell your child that they are ugly because of their birth defect? I definitely would not and I wouldn't view a child with a birth defect as ugly.[/quote]

As the person who said I've been ugly since I was a child, have been asked if I was in a fire, and am often invisible, I also grew up with a big birthmark on my neck (which of course I got teased for all through school for having a piece of sh*t on my neck) and with a lot of learning disabilities.
