There was a global survey done by Dove in 2004 called 'The truth about beauty'
(More about the survey: http://www.ncbuy.com/news/20040930/0...-consider.html)
They interviewed over 3000 worldwide as part of the survey, asking the women whether they believe themselves to be attractive/beautiful.
The result: just 2% of the women said they find themselves attractive/beautiful.
Now this got me thinking. Modern women are constantly under pressure to look good, and perhaps the pressure adds to some low opinion of how they believe they look, which explains why so few women don't feel they are attractive.
I was wondering how representative this survey is of UK women. So the question to the girls here is 'Do you believe YOU are attractive/beautiful'? If not. why not? Also, do you feel under constant pressure from society and the media to look good?
Finally, do you ever compare yourself to other women, like when you see another pretty girl in the street etc?
