I'm going to go ahead and make my assumptions
"Btw if anyone cares, I got pictures of me in my profile" Are you serious? hahahaha >

Yup not the best line🤣 >

Heyyyy do we have the same name? Yael / Yaelle. >

That's some pretty transparent compliment fishing you're up to ma'am. >

How can you compliment fish with nothing to show for compliments, it’s not like they attached photos >

It's in their profile, as specified in the post >

If anyone cares, I got pictures of me in my profile 🤣🤣 >

Yup that line probably brought the pot to boil over lmao. Anyways always fun occasionally discussing something a bit more controversial >

Checked your pics.  Are you transitioning? >

Yup >

Well either way, I don’t think you’re pretty 
Glad you do tho!  Lol >

Brutal >

I think it’s absolutely fine to like your appearance and to feel pretty. In fact, it is probably healthier to love yourself than to feel otherwise. But usually you don’t need to say it out loud to anyone. If others find you pretty, they will describe you as such or quietly notice your prettiness. Having to proclaim yourself as pretty to others can have a negative effect, and attraction is definitely subjective. >

You think you’re pretty. >

Thanks for making me notice, I should’ve said that differently. What I meant was obviously “I know that I’m pretty” >

You think you’re pretty. >

That is correct. I also know it >

You can't know it, because it's not a fact. You think you are, someone else may think you're not, I'm glad you've got self confidence, but dont confuse your opinion with fact >

I agree it is not a fact. Since there is no subjective attractiveness or anything the only “fact” is I know that from my objective point of view perceive myself as pretty. Others may or will have a variety of other opinions/views on it. I do have to say neither of my statings were very well formed. Knowing I’m pretty isn’t the best way of saying it neither is thinking, since it says that there would be a correct answer. I guess it’s all a matter of how someone perceives it >

There's no such thing as an objective point of view. Also there is definitely subjective attractiveness. >

Yup I switched up objective and subjective. Not a native speaker xD >

Psh! 
Build the wall!!! >

Whatever that means >

“I got pictures of myself on my profile” 😂
Look Confidence is definitely a good thing but it seems like you’re trying to seek a bit of validation out of this post. >

Yeah that line didn’t make appear so well after all xD. Just kinda thought if I read a post like this I’d be curious to see how the person looks, so I included it >

Before all of this you made the decision to post selfies. Why? Who the fuck cares what you look like? Brainwashed generation... >

Sadly for some reason some people care, anyways I basically only make selfies to document my transition xD >

Suuuuure, for the whole world to see, just to document your transition... >

I just don’t understand why some people have need to constantly verbalize praise for themselves.  If you know you’re pretty then what’s the point in saying it? >

Positive affirmations are very beneficial for self esteem and mental health. It never hurts. >

Why not just say it internally then? >

What you say out loud is believed by your subconscious mind >

What i say inside is believed by my subconscious. >

Same reason lots of people hype themselves up by saying things out loud, it helps them more than just saying it in their head. >

Even then there is no good reason to have to say it in front of others >

We're unfortunately getting to a point where we see no distinction, as far as aesthetics go, between self-esteem and narcissism. It's really over the top.
But there's really no vanity in looking in the mirror and being able to conclude, the same way you could with some who is not yourself, whether the person you see is attractive or not. That's not the same as being overly into oneself. >

That sums it up very well >

Who's picture are you using in your profile picture, then? >

Mine? >

Thanks for the criticism, mind if I ask how you come to that conclusion? and possibly give me a chance to explain myself xD >

I don't really have a dog in the fight. I just think it's a pretty weird viewpoint. Like, you could be proud of something you worked hard for and pat yourself on the back for that but even then, there is a fine line.
Don't listen to my opinion regarding your profile picture. My opinion should, and likely does, mean very little to you. And mainly based on a mild dislike to the idea. >

Yeah I agree with that >

There's nothing wrong with being confident, but if you're being pretentious about being attractive, you're probably an annoying person to be around. >

Well I wouldn’t say myself I’m pretentious but I’m probably the wrong person to really determine that xD
