This question is interesting. It one of those things that are hard to define. What is attractive?? I don't know how to define what makes somone attractive. I've seen hot chicks that were ugly and I've seen plain woman look really attractive.
It's true. Attractive can mean different things to different people. However, there is a certain percentage of people whom the majority finds attractive. Math defines that - symmetric features.
When I was young(er) I was 'striking'...I stood out, even though I did not go to any great length to bring attention to myself. (I'm a stealthy lurker, not the chick on stage shakin' it with the band.) Other people found me variously attractive, by whatever definition. I just relished my unusual features - those which I didn't find disturbing (more of those), because it set me apart in what I thought was a good way.
But I never looked in the mirror and thought I was all that...knew better. It wasn't ever beautiful.
Now I'm older and am adjusting to not being noticed...the key to aging gracefully is getting over yourself. ;)
Yeah, I'll probably catch a bunch of flack but most of the time I would place myself into the "hot" category. Sometimes I put myself into the "not" category.
I think I look best when I have my hair and makeup and a nice outfit on. I was talking to a friend the other night and she thought I looked good without makeup and she thought my black hair made me look older. She thought I looked better when I had brown hair. So, now I'm kinda obsessed because I don't want to look older. I've asked some other friends for their honest opinions and pretty much everyone else said I look fine the way I am and that she had a screw loose.
I keep my hair black for ballroom because it is a more dramatic look on the dance floor and it looks more latin for my latin and rhythm dances and a dramatic look for my tango. I've grown very use to having black hair, which enables me to do more dramatic makeup.

Ugh! I'm having a mid-life crisis!!!
Do you guys think I'm obsessing way too much?
I think it's cool you feel that way about yourself! I gained a lot of weight when I had the kids and have lost a lot but still have a good 30 pounds to loose so don't feel attractive or my best. It's a work in progress.
