Beauty Introduction

What is true feminine beauty? As the artist I fancy myself to be, I feel that I know it when I see it. Many women are blessed with natural beauty which has two components as far as I’m concerned: 1.) The face. 2.) The body. In the face, some women have striking looks but if they don’t have beautiful souls it reverberates there. Your resting expression indicates the type of person you are. Over time, this expression becomes your permanent face which is why I can tell who looks happy in a relaxed way versus the girls with anger, sadness or a beef with the world written on their faces. They have scowls on them. Just look at yourself in the mirror with no expression on your face. You can see how other people see you. If you want outer beauty, you have to take care of yourself physically and mentally. Aging is the curse for women. Beauty is a large measure of a women’s worth in society so you’re gonna lose some of your outer beauty as you age.

24
I’ve known a few over-50 girls that I would say I was physically attracted to but you have to live in the real world, know what’s goin’ on and focus on living the best life you can with what you got. That’s what I wrote all my other books for, to help you take care yourself because you can’t rely on anyone else, especially after 40. There’s a quote I read that said a woman needs a good retirement plan after 40. Chances are your parents have passed on, you can’t rely on men simply by the law of human nature. Every man goes through a midlife crisis. I’ve known seemingly honorable men who divorced their first wives out of the blue just because they met a young gitl who was interested in them, probably because they had some money and offered a more secure lifestyle than a younger guy could. Beauty to me is not skin deep. I look for someone with a beautiful soul that shows in the face, that glow of inner beauty. For vain, beautiful girls, it’s all about them. It doesn’t matter what I say, the beauty industry has already got its hooks into you. How can it not? When I watch TV, a good percentage of the commercials are geared for women’s beauty; hair coloring, beautiful hair, cosmetics, jewelry and trendy clothes.

25
And how about all them makeover type shows? Makeovers don’t do anything to change a person’s soul. True beauty is being the person you were born to be with abandon. That’s what my free spirit books are about. I’ve written articles about how coloring your hair tells the world you’re in disharmony with yourself for doing something that fake to try to enhance your look when all it does is make you look like trailer trash. I’ve said we could easily solve the world’s hunger problem by using the money we spend on hair color to feed poor kids but every night I still see those hair coloring commercials and think we live in such a lost society. Beauty to me is health, wholeness, naturally good looks and a warm heart. I’m a guy, I go with what I got. I measure myself by what I do not what I look like. You have to think like this, especially as you get older. You might as well do it now. Sure it’s great to try to look good but there’s that line of looking good as a result of the person you are by how you live and looking great because you spend an hour a day putting make-up on. Have some balance in your life. If you’re looking for a

26
guy, guys know when you’ve crossed the line from natural beauty to vanity. Many make allowances for a girl who is kinda young because she’s just trying to learn where she fits in out in the world but if I see a 32 year old dressed to the nines, full of make-up and jewelry, I got her pegged right away, somebody too focussed on her outer look. I don’t wanna deal with her. It shows you’re too self-centered and superficial.

Chapter 1. Outer Look & Inner Beauty

Outer Look & Inner Beauty 1

All that is in the heart is written in the face. African Proverb The most lucrative commodity is a woman’s insecurity. Alexis O’Hara, poetry slammer I feel pretty. Maria in Westside Story I’m tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin deep. That’s deep enough. What do you want, an adorable pancreas? Jean Kerr, The Snake Has All the Lines, 1958 I want the women to be modest and sensible about their clothes and to dress properly; not with fancy hair styles or with golden ornaments or pearls or expensive dresses but with good deeds ... 1 Timothy 2: 9

29
Outer beauty is a certification of health which means good genes to create babies. In the 1940s movie Flesh & Fantasy, the old wizard gives the girl a mask at Mardi-Gras that will make her look outwardly beautiful but he warns her that love is not concerned with outer look. It's about two things: 1.) To give without expecting anything back. 2.) To create faith and support in another person. Once she helps the guy she likes see that he is better served using his education as a lawyer rather than shipping out to sea, he falls in love with her on the inside, says he doesn't care what she looks like on the outside but when she takes the mask off, he says she's beautiful anyway. A guy conducts a workshop where he takes photographs of mostly naked women then gives them a 24 by 36 inch poster of it whereupon they're spozed to write comments on it about what they feel about their bodies. Most of the women think negatively about themselves, namely they're too fat and their breasts are too small. Hardly anyone is happy with themselves. Is this due to a

30
neurotic society that has brainwashed us to chase unrealistic images of ourselves in the mistaken belief that if we ever get there, we will be happy? With or without outer beauty, the truth is that your consciousness/ soul doesn't change much. You have the exact same soul regardless. The formal literature in psychology and conventional wisdom asserts that outer physical beauty equals goodness, warmth and love even though in real life, plenty of people with good looks are arrogant, selfcentered elitists who think they’re better than everybody else. It’s true that good looks will get you into relationships with desirable people and get you breaks out in the world but everybody's physical beauty fades at some point in life, usually by 40. A lot of pretty people can’t sustain relationships because they don’t have the modesty that makes them truly beautiful. True beauty comes from within. The modern day fashion, plastic surgery and cosmetics industries make billions of dollars promoting outer beauty but it’s not about make-up or the clothes you wear. It’s about the

31
joy and goodness in your heart. Never forget the statement from the Bible’s Book of Proverbs, beautiful heart makes a joyful face. You have to be happy with yourself regardless of whether your body and facial look are great or not. That's the key to happiness, love your inner self regardless of outer body but your inner self will show in your outer body. It can either make it look nice or angry, like a permanent scowl on your face which many people have. Everybody turns into a prune as they age. All women over 40 simply can’t compete with the fresh beauty of young girls so why try. Accept yourself for you are at any age in your life.

Outer Look & Inner Beauty 2

It will not be necessary for you to say a word because they will see how pure and reverent your conduct is. You should not use outward aids to make yourselves beautiful, such as the way you fix your hair or the jewelry you put on or the dresses you wear. Instead, your beauty should consist of your true inner self, the ageless beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit which is of the

32
greatest value in God's sight. 1 Peter 3:1-4 You are not your looks but does the rest of the world know that? Of all the things that you wear, your expression is the most important. Your biography will become your biology. Poise is being at ease with yourself. Outer look has everything to do with inner beauty. Outer look is based on the face and body which tell us immediately how primally inspired and healthy you are about life. That's our entire judgment system right there. We read people based on how much youthful spark or lack of it they have to them. Youth and beauty comprise one period of life where you have the grace of flawless vitality, natural good looks and vigor regardless of how much you might abuse yourself but it passes all too quickly then you either go off into chubby midlife mundanity and oblivion or figure out how to keep that youthful spark which is what my book A Free Spirit's Search For Enlightenment is about.

33
It's not facial beauty per se nor the look of the body per se, it's how sparkly you are about life. Granted some young girls have stunning facial beauty but this alone can't sustain you if you don't stay physically active and inspired about life as you age. You will eventually wear your life on your face and body. If you've had a sad life, by the time you're 40 the glum expression will be imprinted there. If you stay happy, your face can look sparkly at 80. America is obsessed with looks, just watch the TV commercials sometimes especially the one where the girl says I'm worth it or the one where that supposed celebrity gives a phony pout to the camera, playing with her hair like some frivolous airhead with nothing better to do than obsess over her looks saying “it changes everything” implying that the use of some hair product that rhymes with Canteen to “get rid of frizzies” will transform her life. I've seen hundreds of girls who've dieted themselves thin with pills, colored their hair, poured the make-up on, wore the latest styles and even got cosmetic boobs yet I still didn't get that sense of true beauty about them because they didn’t have the true quality of beauty as a rare and unique gemstone. Beauty comes from within from the heart.

34
The body is not distinct from the soul. The body is the expression of the soul. How you feel inside is how your body feels and vice versa. If you want to be an alive, vibrant, sexual human being, you must become aware of your body, take care of it through diet, rest and exercise then use it as an instrument of your freedom and sexuality not to mention that you will be a healthier and happier person overall. The human organism is a unitary whole. You can't have good sex or be a good lover if you're missing a piece of the puzzle. In order to be desirable sexually and to be a good lover, you must have a decent body that you're in control of. It's that simple. Be yourself. Don't wear too much make-up. Ralph Nader wrote a book about the toxic effects of make-up and I watched a preacher at 3abn.org (the Baptist Network) quote from the Bible saying that vanity a la make-up is wrong. If you're a truly beautiful person who cares enough about life to take care of yourself, it will show. You don't have to do frivolous, stupid things in the name of vanity like live for those impostors called fashion and make-up.

35
They've got nothing to do with the real you. If some bubbleheaded idiot approaches you just because of the clothes and/ or make-up you're wearing, then he's a superficial idiot too just like you. Maybe you were meant for each other. Do not divorce your body from your mind. Feel it, experience it, go with the flow. Learn to relax, breathe easily, exercise, move, walk, dance, swim, do Tai chi, etc., develop good posture, meditate, use the five senses and savor the feelings, massage yourself, introspect, center yourself, love your body then use all these insights to become a better lover with your partner. Gaze at each other, talk about your bodies then massage each other. Dancing to music is one of the greatest sensous, physical activities around. A good book about women, true womanhood and cultural brainwash is A Woman's Worth by Marianne Williamson, 1993 even though I think she’s a bit of a hypocrite for trying to come off like a trendy yuppie when I saw her on some TV show. campaignforrealbeauty.ca

A Girl’s Appearance/ The Vanity Business

36
It's better to be looked over than to be overlooked. It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible. Oscar Wilde Women are massively brainwashed to focus on their appearance to the point of excess which violates three principles of ladyhood: 1.) A true woman of substance is modest and concerned with doing worthwhile things either for herself, for her family or for the world. She is not wasting her life buying different clothes, trying them on, coloring her hair, painting her nails and putting make-up on. 2.) True beauty emenates out from within a person. In the Book of Proverbs in the Bible, they say a beautiful heart makes a joyful face. You can’t fake a truly joyful face, not even with all the cosmetics and clothing in the world. You either have that quality in your soul or you don’t and it shows on the outside. People can sense the type of person you really are simply by looking at your face and your

37
dress. 3.) Anyone who spends excessive time grooming and buying trendy clothes gives their true character away when you look at them. An excessive preoccupation with the way you look tells other people you’re vain and vanity is a negative quality because it shows you’re a self-centered narcissist who doesn’t give a damn about anyone but yourself. A truly noble person is thinking about the problems in the world and how they can help it. They are not thinking about culturing a certain frivolous look or image about themselves. All vain people have an aura of superiority to them, a feeling that they are better than others and they are engaging in the frivolous pastime of looking good while there is so much need in the world. It reveals your true character, that you’re not a good person. You’re a brainwashed, self-centered ass who will age and look ugly then all the clothes and make-up in the world will not help your cold heart look any warmer. If you’re an active, inspired person releasing your natural energy in trying to live a good life for yourself, you will look good naturally without having to try to create a trendy aura about yourself. All enlightened

38
people can tell who’s naturally inspired, just being themselves and who’s a fake, frivolous person trying to look good to get some ego boost from others. The whole thing about being enlightened and attracting the right kind of guy or girl is that you don’t do anything to attract external attention to yourself by your clothes and make-up. You don’t have to. You’re fine as is. You feel good inside. You don’t have to impress other people with your look. The right people will recognize your true beauty when they see you for the first time. It’s got nothing to do with clothes and cosmetics. It’s the natural joie d’vivre a person has written across their face and body by the way they live. That’s the only beauty that registers to people like me. Every night, I watch the documentary channels and the independent movie channels on TV so I’m thinking to myself that the demographic target audience for these networks must be for people like me, over 40 year old farts who’ve seen it all and don’t like glitter and flash. We want to see something original, great and inspired yet they still have the stupid hair coloring commercials even on these networks. It just goes to show how pervasive the brainwashing effect is where girls are portrayed as these extremely

39
frivolous people who have got nothing better to do than color their hair then they imply that coloring your hair or using a certain shampoo will magically change your life. You’ll all of a sudden feel very glamorous, guys will notice you and you’ll meet the prince of your dreams. The TV commercials are so obviously fake, made at such a cheesy, primitive level that I wonder how is any sane girl gonna watch that and be convinced by it but apparently millions do. The commercials must work because they never end. Yes, girls are brainwashed to aspire to be beautiful and trendy. There’s nothing wrong with a girl trying to be beautiful but there’s a point of obsession and overdoing it to the extent that she’s all about her outer look. She’s not thinking deep thoughts about all the problems in the world and trying to do something about in her own way. She lives in this phony glamorous world created by the media that guys like me can’t stand because I believe it’s part of the destruction of good quality people in our society. When a girl gets into this mindset, I don’t wanna have anything to do with her. I like people of substance who get beyond this phony, frivolous world and I don’t like these people who think there’s really such a thing as

40
fashion beyond a massive delusion of trendiness. Advertising has created a silent competition among women as to who’s the most beautiful and trendiest in the room. It has ruined the helping sisterhood that should exist among women. Instead of parading around trying to look like proud peacocks, women should be more friendly to each other and less concerned with being all that, looking like some model sashaying down a runway. A woman uses her beauty to attract men and hopefully find a strong, wealthy husband in the bunch. Where many of them mess up is that they accept the definition of beauty corporate advertising has given them so they color their hair, cake the make-up on, splurge on expensive clothes and shoes but they don’t realize that noble, worthy men see all this as a negative quality of vanity contrary to what the TV commercials say about how glamorous this stuff will make you look. They can see past this into the soul of a girl because her true soul is written all over her face and her body and it’s got nothing to do with how trendy the dress is that she’s wearing. If you’re a girl either married or in a relationship, don’t

41
tell your husband how you think you’re fat when you’re not because it’ll just make him mad that he’s working so hard and there’s so much real need in the world while you’re so frivolous that all you can do is think about your imagined weight problem. A billion people on the planet are starving and your problem is that you’re trying to lose ten pounds. It doesn’t make any sense. Is it any wonder why people like me turn our backs on the corporate pop culture entertainment culture? Don’t complain about how your face isn't pretty enough, how your legs are too fat or the fact that there are wrinkles on your face. Guys have to hustle out there in the real world. They don’t want to hear about your imaginary problems about your looks. If you knew how little people care about your looks unless they plan to have sex with you or marry you, you’d realize why the cult of outer beauty is a big shamscam.

The Fine Line Betwwen Dressing For Vanity & Dressing For Self-Respect

42
When I was in grade school, I realize now that I had an inner standard back then to dress cleanly, neatly and nice. I never wore jewellry or anything to make others pay attention to me based on dress but I was always dressed like the polite middle class kid. When I went to college, I was exactly the same. I always wore neutral middle class type clothes. I was never grungy. I never wore t-shirts and sweatpants to school but I never wore trendy expensive stuff either. You can look nice and neat without drawing attention to yourself based on your clothes. That’s the line. You can wear a comfortable pair of shoes or knee-high high-heeled boots. People make judgments on you based on your dress. The judgments I make are something like there’s some kid starving in Africa and this girl who thinks she’s hot is wearing $500 boots that are total pretense. Why would I ever want to befriend her even for the possibility of casual sex?

Physical Beauty 1

43
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Before going to bed that night, I looked in the mirror above the bathroom sink and when I saw only my face staring back - and that it would always be this ordinary face - I began to cry. Such a sad ugly girl! I made highpitched noises like a crazed animal, trying to scratch out the face in the mirror ... The girl staring back at me was angry, powerful. This girl and I were the same. I had new thoughts, willful thoughts or rather thoughts filled with lots of won'ts. I won't let her change me, I promised myself. I won't be what I'm not. Amy Tan, The Joy Luck Club Many women will try almost anything to improve their looks such as paying outrageous prices for useless creams and gadgets, getting poisoned sometimes by the chemicals in beauty aids and live in pain just to look beautiful such as wear corsets, shoes too tight, high heels, etc., not to mention the time wasted trying to create a façade of beauty or glamor when true beauty is in the essence/ aura of a person. It is not affected either way by splashing chemicals on your face. A bit of make-up is ladylike. Too much is tawdry trailer trash.

44
Youth is the elixir the beauty products corporations try to sell to every woman over 28 and they make billions off it but there are four factors that nobody can change: 1.) The fact that aging is natural. To accept yourself as you naturally are is divine. To me, it’s better than the vain, frivolous aging woman obsessed with your looks. 2.) It’s not a manufactured youthful look per se that makes an aging woman look good, it’s a youthful attitude to life, an inspired, fresh, free lifestyle, not chemicals and clothes. 3.) I personally feel I can usually tell when someone has a facelift, uses botox or has had other cosmetic surgeries done. It gives the face an artificial “tight” look. 4.) The easiest way to stay young is to sweat through hard physical effort at something for at least a few hours a day, almost everyday. Don’t be a fool. Don’t believe all the stupid beauty claims out there. There are no creams that can enhance bust size.

45
Some chemicals in beauty products are poisonous or at least hazardous to people allergic to them. It’s not about dress to impress. It’s who you are on the inside that shows on the outside. All the fashions and cosmetics in the world won’t do much for you either way. All that crap on TV about makeovers is just reminiscent of a lost society. You don’t change your consciousness or your soul by getting some make-up slapped on, a new dress and some assholes who think they’re trendy who are supposedly your makeover coaches tellin’ you to go girl. I can generally read people by their face and body. It’s not about the clothes they wear or how trendy they look. It’s about the way they carry themselves, the look of joy and peace on their faces, the sparkle in their eye versus a generic, bland look, the look of health and self-respect or lack of it, their nobility and humility as opposed to immature, loud, in your face arrogance. Way back when I was a stupid, brainwashed undergrad psychology student, we all had to do an independent study for our third year. I chose the beautiful is good phenomena, the tendency for people to think that goodlooking people are morally better and superior to others in most things like intelligence, kindness, wealth,

46
athletic ability, etc. when the truth is that good looking people can be just as evil as anyone and are not necessarily superior to others in anything. Despite everything we say about it's the heart that counts, beautiful people are thought to be better leaders, better human beings and more special than other people. Studies done where people's faces are flashed onto a screen and the brain reactions of people watching analyzed revealed that the more beautiful the person of the opposite sex (same sex if you're gay), the more your brain lights up and goes haywire. The part that lights up most is the limbic system which is the primordial instinctive part of the brain we share with animals dedicated to cravings of pleasure like food, sex, recreational drugs, etc. Out in the world of work, men can be as ugly and fat as they want and nobody cares as long as they do their jobs well but a woman has to be beautiful or at least pleasant to look at in order to be considered successful at life regardless of how powerful they are at work. I know vrtually all women are brainwashed by physical beauty en masse because even though I'm a guy, I've scanned several hundred woman's magazines over the

47
years and they're always about two things: 1.) Be beautiful in looks, enhance yourself any way you can. 2.) Be thin. These two factors have created multi-billion dollar fashion, cosmetics and weight loss industries all designed to make women always feel deficient no matter how good they look so they can spend their money on frivolous things to try to enhance their look somehow to reach that standard pounded into them by TV commercials and frivolous magazines and if they're not there, they feel bad about themselves and neurotic about life, all except for one minor category of truly liberated women. Some post-menopausal women but not all, only a small minority, accept themselves as is, know they ain’t gonna be looked on as beauties anymore so it frees them to be who they really are without feeling self-conscious about their looks anymore. The problem with the capitalist-corporate-pop culture game of getting women hooked on their looks in order to sell them product when it comes to attracting guys is that guys like pretty, thin girls with big boobs but they also

48
like wholesome, healthy and real not the so-called trendy one with her high fashions, colored hair, too much make-up and her frivolous "I'm all that" attitude gleaned from the magazines. This is where easily 90% of you are brainwashed to miss the boat as to what constitutes a true nice, noble lady. Some girls smoke cigarettes and take laxatives all in an effort to stay thin whereas anyone who knows anything about the medical industry knows that smoking is the worst thing you can do for your health and looks. It ages you faster causing premature wrinkles. It's not all that crap they try to brainwash you with in frivolous women's magazines that attract men, it's a nice girl untouched and unphased by all of that because it's so rare. When I look at a girl for the first time, I'm asking myself how much does she own herself as a free person being herself versus how much is she a product of her culture trying to look beautiful and fashionable with the trendy clothes, too much lipstick, the nosering, the colored hair, etc. The magazines are paid for by the advertisers from the so-called beauty industry which is why just about all the articles are about beauty, they want you to spend your

49
money and be a brainwashed clone but this is the big fallacy; these things turn guys off. They like the look of sleazy. slutty, made-up girls trying to look trendy for sexual arousal but as far as love goes, most (or at least me) really aren't interested in the pop culture clone trying to be trendy and cool. The deception of the corporate cosmetic industry is that they sell stupid, frivolous products to women they've brainwashed into thinking that these superficial things will make them more beautiful but they really just cheapen them. The colored hair, the painted nails, the overdone eye make-up, the perm, the fake eyelashes, etc. look good for a porno movie set or a vamp in a music video trying to act like a pop star but as revelations of true, inner character, they’re horrible to a guy like me who believes being natural, unpretensious and unassuming are high virtues, quite rare in the search for beautiful souls. I presume you try to beautify yourself to attract men or at least to attract compliments and leering looks to build up your ego but the catch is that men are born with instincts wired into them that say I want to reproduce with the youngest, most wholesome healthiest (and sincere, honest and nice) females I can find.

50
Beauty is really just another word for health. A man is looking for a healthy sex partner. Her youthful beauty tells you she's healthy. It doesn't have anything to do with all that cosmetics crap out there, it's your youthful vitality that counts. Artificial breasts will make you more attractive because men are particularly attracted to that curve but anything else won't really help you all that much. Hair color makes you look cheap, painted nails are kinda frivolous, eye make-up makes you look sexy but it's a slutty type of sexy not a wholesome type. If you want love or to be seen as beautiful by men and other women, you gotta live such that you radiate a healthy glow in your lifestyle and attitude towards life from the inner core of your being. Facial beauty or ugliness is something you're born with. It's out of your control therefore it's neutral value-wise, neither good or bad yet we all know that beautiful people generally get preferential treatment except for the backlash where people do bad things to them because they're jealous. If you got it and flaunt it, you're a fool because it's frivolous, skin deep and will fade in due time. If you're

51
pretty but try to accomplish something of substance rather than just rely on your looks, you're living life the right way not trying to think you're superior because you're supposedly so beautiful. The one thing you can do to change your face other than cosmetic surgery is to exercise and eat the right foods such that it's lean and chiselled and you have hollowed in cheeks such that your cheekbones stick out. This is a universal signal of beauty because it signifies you're healthy unlike the chubby puffy faces we see on most people in our society who rarely exert themselves intensely physically despite the fact that there are thousands of gyms and exercise machines around. It’s trendy to say you’re into physical activity but how many people live it as part of an inspired lifestyle rather than just use it as an unpleasant means to an end. Beauty can attract people to you if you've got a nice face and body when you're young but once you pass about 35, your looks go somewhat so if you've got a bitchy, uppity personality, don't expect your outer beauty to get you what you want anymore. Men will simply go after the younger ones.

Physical Beauty 2

I'm of the belief that inner beauty creates outer beauty, you have to be beautiful on the inside to be truly beautiful on the outside. If you have outer beauty without inner beauty, you give off a phony, empty kind of vibe which equals nothing because a pretty face and a nice body without a feeling of niceness or warmth is useless which is why all those bleach blond cosmetic tit chicks do nothing for me emotionally except to want to have empty sex with them. I feel no inherent warmth or niceness coming from them so I'm not attracted to them as people I like for being who they are. In fact, wheever I see rootsshowing through, the words phony, superficial and brainwashed immediately enter my mind. I've watched obsessive women on talk shows say they wouldn't even put the garbage out without make-up on and a pregnant one who put her make-up on before she went to bed every night in case she went into labor and went to the hospital. You've all been brainwashed by frivolous women's magazines and cosmetics companies who want you to buy, buy, buy, never satisfied with your alleged beauty

53
when the facts are that true beauty comes from within and the people out there that you think are looking at you and concerning themselves with how beautiful or ugly you are really aren't. They're more worried about how they look rather than how you look so we got a society full of a bunch of selfcentered women and some men walking around, each in a world of their own creation, worrying about how they look with nobody giving too much of a damn about how anyone else looks but themselves. This is where the culture of vanity perpetuated by the illusion of media glamour and the cosmetic commercials has brought us. In my book A Free Spirit's Search For Enlightenment, I defined one of the factors of the anatomy of the soul as the body as the temple of the soul. I'm not talking about these vain over the top girls you see on trashy talk shows flashing their cosmetics boobs, I'm talking about taking care of yourself physically by not overeating, getting some exercise and living a balanced life. The beauty and reverence you hold for life is reflected in your body. As far as facial beauty goes, your soul radiates through

54
your face. You may have been born with good looks but your biography will become your biology meaning the way you live your life will eventually become your face. You will have a few years of grace during youth but I've seen hundreds of once beautiful girls who got fat, wrinkled or just developed permanent scowls on their faces from a life not well lived. I looked at photographs of some of them from ten or so years ago and the way they look now, you'd never know they were once stunning beauties. The way you live your life, the way you feel all the time forms a permanent imprint on your face. It's very easy to tell the truly happy people from the phony vain ones. Happiness is beauty, it's that simple. It's in the eyes. I've seen older women with beautiful eyes which made their faces beautiful. I've seen people with faces not considered beautiful who looked beautiful to me because they had a presence of soul in their eyes and a happy glow in their faces. I don't buy into that phony cult of celebrity thing with the entertainment industry and those stupid celebrity gossip magazines. That's all crap. Truly beautiful people don't go around trying to flaunt it, posing as if they actually have the vanity to presume to be one of the

55
50 or so most beautiful people in the world according to some stupid magazine while people in Africa are worrying about where their next meal is coming from and kids are starving to death today yet we’re obsessed with these meaningless things while we’re perfectly aware all this stuff is goin’ on. No wonder we live in a lost society out of balance with the karma of the world. In my opinion, we have a phony cult of beauty created by the entertainment industry, gossip columnists, tabloid TV shows, tabloid newspapers, cosmetic commercials and frivolous women's magazines who use so-called celebrities and supermodels as fodder in this illusion they put forth about some cool, glamorous in-crowd of beautiful people out there having a great old time while the rest of us pleebes get to watch in envy, feeling inferior because we weren't blessed with superior genes so we're not there, part of it. If you buy into this game, you're the idiot for allowing yourself to be manipulated like this. I have my own standards of beauty and it doesn't come close to all those bleach blonds with their tired roots showing through, their phony smiles and their cosmetic tits or anybody else trying to act frivolously fashionable. I'm a real human being. I like real people without any frivolous pretensions to them whatsoever. If you pierce

56
your tongue, you're sending a message to me that you're such a brainwashed lost soul that you had to go out and mutilate a basic part of your anatomy to give off the impression to others that you're a cool, adventurous human being but to enlightened minds, you're just giving off the impression that you're stupid and lost, conforming to the current definition of cool. Be a noble person within yourself by your own standard. Answer to yourself only. Don't play anybody else's game, particularly don't allow yourself to be miserable by trying to fit into a standard that's not the real you. Physical beauty will fade in all women so if you've got nothing inside, you will have nothing left once your age starts to show. Try to look nice but don't dwell on it. Focus on what you do not on how you look.

Physical Beauty 3

Beauty starts from the inside. Trendy on the outside, empty on the inside. There are no ugly women, only lazy ones. Helena Rubenstein, My Life

57
for Beauty, 1966 Is it too much to ask that women be spared the daily struggle for superhuman beauty in order to offer it to the caresses of a subhumanly ugly mate? Germaine Greer, The Female Eunuch, 1970 I’ve never met a woman who thought she was beautiful and I’ve met a lot of women. Gay hairstylist Beauty is portrayed as both a source of grace/ feminine charm and a source of sexuality where women are perceived as sex objects. Feminine beauty is a double edged sword for women both as a source of power over men and as a source of neurotic anxiety. If you don't have it, that's a double strike against you. Why do you think the cosmetic and clothing industries are so lucrative? One of the most popular types of books are the weight loss books which are all a sham because weight loss is a matter of three factors and a bit of common sense; Eat less; Exercise more.

58
Love life more than you love food. We're bombarded at one end to be nice people on the inside yet the TV culture focusses totally on the frivolous, super thin, highly made-up girl as the ideal leaving many women to get miserable when they gain a few pounds or hit their mid-thirties. What's a gal to do? I live for the spirit that I feel within me. Food is functional. You have to develop that kind of attitude about food and get away from using it to fill the emptinesss you feel in other parts of your life. Many women also use other addictions to compensate for the emotional emptiness in their lives like booze, shopping, valium, supermom, codependence, diet pills, compulsive exercise, drugs, bingo and anorexia/ bulimia. Eating should be an act of will. You decide to eat less so you eat less and don't develop a deep psychological neurosis about it. It's a fact, people respect fat people less. You have to make firm decisions and commit to them. In the final analysis, you have the power of choice. Accept your body, accept your beauty. Choose personal power. Black women accept their bodies more than white women. Get a clue, accept your body and strive to

59
be a more energetic, vivacious person. Let your inner light shine through. It will make a lot more impact than your obsession with your weight. Within the mainstream society at large, physical beauty is defined as an attractive face and a well proportioned slim body. It's a universal source of invisible power wherever you go because it represents an esthetic; a thing of beauty, rarity, coolness, niceness, goodness and innocence. Something about physical beauty transcends normal mundanity. We seem to equate it with a higher quality of life, that people who are physically beautiful are somehow living happier lives, that they're somehow one step above the rest of humanity. Everybody generally evaluates everybody else on physical look, men and women alike. Physical beauty to me is a glow, a spring in your step, a nice gentle face and a nice body not too skinny or too fat. We automatically treat beautiful people better than we treat others all the way from babyhood on through to old age. We smile at them more, like them more, give them breaks, freebies, jobs, etc. We befriend them more and want to be around them but this is the fallacy.

60
You can be born with great looks and a good body but beauty is only skin deep. It really is what's inside that counts because over time, what's inside will shape your body and face, i.e., your biography will become your biology. Natural beauty alone might sustain you until about 35 if you're a light eater but unless you actively exercise, eat right and live a happy life, the wear and tear of life will destroy your youthful looks. In my observations of people, I've noticed that we as a race generally treat attractive people better but not really that much because it's a money-business oriented world where function is king, what can I do for you, what can you do for me. Who really cares about someone sitting pretty doing nothing unless you can get something out of them like sex, love or to be seen with this beautiful person to enhance your popularity rating. Beautiful women make porno movies, so what. Ain't nobody out there that dazzling that I'm going to come crawling on my knees to anyone. I personally don't care what you look like unless I plan to have sex with you or marry you.

61
To me, a soul is a soul. They're all equal despite the outer wrapping. If we have a meeting of the minds in whatever it is we're doing, I don't care how ugly or pretty you are. I know that all people have the same basic emotions so ugly or pretty, you're just another human soul to me. Show me something original from your soul and I will respect you way more than I give a damn about all that dye in your hair and that make-up on your face. Men are vain to a limited extent, recognize handsome looks in other men and either respect it or are jealous of it but women take the cake because they're judged almost exclusively on physical beauty all their lives. It doesn't matter if they're smart, wealthy, creative, original or funny. The outside world meaning men and what I've gathered about the collective soul of women, both judge women by looks and women play a silent game with each other based on who's the prettiest and slimmest in the room. This invisible standard is devastating to many women because it puts the feminine physical ideal into one mold and if you don't fit it, you're somehow uncool, not quite with it, not as popular as the others.

62
It's a double edged sword. There's nothing uglier than someone with outer beauty being a high and mighty, vain and empty bitch. A lot of women play that game and get what they want from dumb guys but smart guys know an ice queen or a phony bitch when they see one. If you were blessed with physical beauty, sure look nice and take care of yourself but don't flaunt it and think you're better than everybody else. Do something useful and functional with your life. Don't just sit there, get a boob job and try to make it on that alone. It's so useless, phony and empty. Remember the line in Kipling's poem ... nor look too good or talk too wise. If you look good and feel good inside, good for you. You don't have to announce it to the world by wearing excessively tight, skimpy or otherwise overly extravagant clothes, caked over with too much make-up, sashaying around like some dumb vamp out of a frivolous woman's magazine or one of them stupid videos by them phony manufactured pop divas out there. Men like nice looking girls but not phony vamps. As a man, I can't understand the cultural over-obsession women have with what they wear and how they look.

63
I can spot a true beauty right off and it ain't got nothing to do with make-up or the clothes you wear. I was attracted to one of my soulmates while she was wearing a plain supermarket frock because it was something beautiful about her as a person that I could immediately sense, not anything else. Men are functional, clothes are functional. As long as we look alright, that's as far as it goes. Any guy who reads GQ magazine or has a fair-sized wardrobe has violated the true essence of manhood, to do something worthy with your life not sit around looking pretty. I personally can't stand girls that are purposely trying to be frivolously fashionable. It tells me they're out of touch phonies who don't know much about life in the real world. Some beautiful women say they're too beautiful to get asked out because guys are intimidated by them. Based on watching dating shows, I've concluded that most women have a higher opinion of their beauty and charm to men than they actually have in the objective sense. After the dates, many said they were above his class, out of his league so to speak. This is snobbery, a deluded sense that you're so beautiful that you can control guys

64
and they're dying to get close to you. Most guys live in the real world. They will be nice to you but know there's always another bus around the corner with a whole bus full of new girls trying to look beautiful so if you think you're extra-special, you'd better think again because people in general hate that vibe. I've known beautiful girls with nice faces who were approachable because they didn't have any pretense about themselves. They were just being who they are. Physical beauty is beautiful if it's paired with a nice soul not a phony, vain, frivolous one hooked on her selfperception of being a dazzling beauty. As I already said, at my age, no one female is that special to me anymore. There are nice ones around but beauty's a dime a dozen, it's all interchangeable, people are basically generic, all attractive bodies are equal, any attractive one will do so I and I hope most people my age who I presume are mature are not affected by a person's looks much either way. I like people who ignore their looks, either good or bad. It's just not much of an issue. I can't stand people who tie their egos up in their looks to the point of absurdity

65
like eating disorders, overrated trendy clothes, etc. The Arts & Entertainment Network, aetv.com, have a documentary called Beauty in a Jar which they sell in video format.

66
Chapter 2. The Essence of Beauty

Beauty in the Bible

The Bible wants women and men to be healthy, wholesome, modest and spiritual. There is more information in the Christian Women section and the Modesty: A Lost Virtue section but for now, read this over as food for thought. It never ceases to amaze me how some of these hyprocrite so-called pop stars calling themselves Christian parade around in their trendy clothes, trying to act alluring. A true Christian is modest, that’s all there is to it. They don’t seek out attention from their physical look. Watch any Christian TV show. See how many of the women there color their hair. That’s kinda stupid, isn’t it? They’re denying the hair color God gave them to waste money on some gunk while some kid will die tonight because he doesn’t have a dollars worth of food then people wonder why I have contempt for the hypocrisy of fake Christians. God hates pride and the high look.

67
Proverbs 21:4 The Lord sees not as man sees; for man looks on the outward appearance, the Lord looks on the heart. 1 Samuel 16:7 Do not adorn yourselves outwardly by arranging your hair, or by wearing gold, or by putting on clothing. Rather, let your adornment be the inner man of the heart, which never decays, the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is of much value in the sight of God. Peter 3:3-4 Him that has a high look and a proud heart will not endure. Psalms 101:5 As a jewel of gold in a swine’s snout, so is a beautiful woman who is without discretion. Proverbs 11:22 Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman that fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Proverbs 31:30 Who is a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubles. The heart of her husband safely trusts in her so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him

68
good and not evil all the days of her life. She seeks wool and flax and works willingly with her hands. She is like the merchants' ships; she brings food from afar. She rises while it's dark and gives meat to her household and a portion to her maidens. She looks at a field and buys it; with the fruit of her hands, she plants a vineyard. She girdeth her loins with strength and strengthens her arms. She sees to it that her merchandise is good; her candle stays bright by night. She lays her hands to the spindle and her hands hold the distaff. She stretches out her hand to the poor; yes, she reaches forth her hands to the needy. She's not afraid of the snow for her household; for all her household are clothed with scarlet. She makes herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple. Her husband is known in the gates, when he sits among the elders in the land. She makes fine linen and sells it; and delivers girdles unto the merchant. Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looks well to the ways of her household and doesn't eat in the bread of idleness. Her children arise up and call her blessed; her husband also and he praises her. Many daughters have done virtuously; but you excellest them all. Favor is deceitful and beauty is vain but a woman that fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her

69
hands and let her own works praise her in the gates. Proverbs 31:10-31 Unto the pure all things are pure. Titus 1:15 Let it not be that outward adorning of arranging the hair, or of wearing of gold, or of putting on clothing. But let it be that the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, the ornament of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God. 1Peter 3:3-4

The Mechanics of Beauty

At 50, everyone has the face he deserves. George Orwell, Notebook, April, 1949 Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Everybody has their own vision of what a dream person is and it varies wildly. I've been turned on by girls other guys aren't particularly interested in and guys have pointed out girls to me that turned them on that did nothing for me.

70
It's the way it is. We're wired with a vision of beauty back around childhood which is usually someone similar to our opposite sex parent. For what's it worth, a recent poll said that the number one factor for men about women's look was the breasts. Being a man, I can attest to the fact that I value a woman's beauty; her facial beauty, her body and an undefineable feeling of inner beauty that I must sense immediately if I'm to be attracted to her. For the women, the number one feature of men was the eyes. Most of the attractive features were centered around the face like hair, small nose, big eyes, etc. Body parts rated high for the men like the butt, legs, etc. but not so for the women. Biceps only got 6% as the most important feature for women. The most basic facets of women looking good to men are: Healthy appearance. The clean wholesome look. Healthy skin. Glossy hair (eat protein). Hair long or medium long, either straight or mildly curly not frizzy like you stuck your finger into a light bulb

71
socket. Breasts average size to large. Tight ass, tight legs. Tanned face, the blush complexion. Good grooming. Light scent of perfume or cologne. White teeth. Nice clothes not fashionably frivolous though. Dress appropriately for the occasion. Moderate amount of jewelry. Moderate amount of make-up. Smooth, soft hands. Manicured nails. Pedicured toes. High heels. Nice underwear. Everybody wants somebody healthy looking with good skin and no body fat. It's the universal constant around the world. Biologists say it goes back to primitive days when men and women alike searched for mates that would produce healthy offspring. According to some psychologists, attractiveness in both sexes equates to symmetry in the face and a big head with big eyes, small ears, clear complexion, minimal amount of wrinkles and an oval face.

72
According to psychologist Dr. Michael Cunningham at the University of Louisville who did studies by showing people photos and asking them to rate the people in them on an attractiveness scale, there are two categories of features that attract men to women: 1.) Neonate features, features that make a girl look young and childish such that we feel protective towards her like large, widely spaced eyes, small noses and chins. 2.) Sexual maturity and responsive features like narrow cheeks, prominent cheekbones, arched eyebrows, happy smiles and dilated eye pupils. The sum total according to his article in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology is “someone who is slightly young and helpless though sexually mature and friendly.” This is that vulnerability thing I talk about elsewhere which is why the modern liberated babe ain’t exactly setting men’s hearts on fire. She’s too hard with that I’m in control attitude. People with big heads and big eyes with visible cheekbones are considered attractive in every different society in the world. People with attractive, symmetric

73
faces have sex more and cheat more than others, hence, healthier genes get passed on down. Psychologists have categorized the following as youthful features; a big face: symmetry of the face: big eyes: high cheekbones; rosy, tan complexion; right sized nose; clear skin. These are the marks of beauty in every culture of the world. They showed babies pictures of people that were ranked on attractiveness and found that babies looked at the universally attractive ones longer. Some facial proportions for facial beauty are: The ideal mouth is half the width of the face at mouth level. The eyes are 1/14th the height of the face and 3/10th the width of the face at eye level. The pupils are 1/14th the distance between the

74
cheekbones. The chin is 1/5th the length of the face. The distance from the center of the eye to the bottom of the eyebrow is 1/10th the height of the face. The total area of the nose should be no more than 5% of the total area of the face. Psychologists went around to a bunch of different cultures in the world and showed them pictures of both men and women. The universal constant for men perceiving a woman to be healthy and fertile was what they called a 0.70 waist to hip ratio which means that the waist is 0.70 the size of the hips. All men are turned on by this measurement. For women, it's about .85, .90 waist to buttock ratio in men so the point is that we seem to have some prewired scope within ourselves that can detect what's fertile/ attractive in the opposite sex. Even though men’s preferences to the size of women (thin to fat) change with the times, the 0.70 waist-to-hip ratio remains constant regardless of the overall size they prefer.

75
According to studies, women seem to generally prefer a feminine face in a man because it's perceived as more friendly except during ovulation where they want a masculine looking man to seed them to pass of good genes. Physical beauty is a person's way of advertising that he or she is virile and ready to create babies so it's part of the mating game to try to be beautiful to attract an appropriate mate. A part of beauty is health. A man is attracted to a lady who takes care of herself. If you smoke because you think it helps keep your weight down, get strong, quit and take up a real healthy lifestyle. In many psychological studies, it was proven time and time again that physically beautiful people are considered morally superior, more talented and friendlier than others and often get the breaks in life although they get the backlash of jealousy and scorn to go along with it and beauty fades after 40 so it’s not a lifelong thing. In conclusion, men are definitely attracted to physical beauty, women are more attracted to the inner soul of the guy and the size of his wallet although I don't shortchange men. They're not stupid. They want inner beauty just like women do .

76
Blond, light, fair hair is associated with youth which could be why men are more attracted to blonds than girls with other hair colors.

True Beauty is Love of Life

True beauty means only one thing; someone who has taken the genetic seed they were born with to strive to be as strong, free, natural, pure and loving as they can be without pretense, doing it because that’s what they feel within that they must be. Everything else is pretense, bull, vanity or meaningless. This is why I have contempt for all people who color their hair. It shows how much they don’t get it and how much they’ve been brainwashed by all the crap out in

77
the world. I constantly come across girls with colored hair who are trying to act like deep, profound, conscientious, morally upstanding, noble people when they’ve already defined themselves by putting that gunk in their hair. It negates everything, reveals how brainwashed and superficial they really are, especially the ones masquerading as Christians. Anything somebody does for image as opposed to who they really are in their soul takes away from their beauty. Nobody needs to drive a Porsche. If you do, it just shows there’s something missing inside that you feel you need to project this certain image you’ve been brainwashed by. No guy needs to wear an earring. If you do, firstly it shows you’ve been brainwashed by the world, secondly, it shows you’re that vain that you’re trying to project some phony cool image about yourself and thirdly it shows you couldn’t be all that enlightened, free or stable because you don’t understand that being yourself and following your true identity as you really are is true beauty. If you did, you wouldn’t wear an earring because it represents the pretensious, pop culture, capitalist world of meaningless glitter which is all negative. A real man is someone strong enough to be himself, to

78
stand on his own without needing to conform to some phony image of coolness from out there. I don’t pretend to like professional sports or violent action movies but this is the way the sales machine try to define men as so that they can be a bunch of dumb consumers brainwashed by all this stuff but is this cool or beautiful? Think about it. What’s so cool about watching a bunch of overpaid people play some sport as opposed to doing something with your own life? What’s entertaining or redeeming about some movie where some guy gets revenge by killing everybody who wronged him or wronged society? That’s the theme of every action movie. Why is America the murder capital of the world? It’s not a stretch to figure it out. We’re a bunch of brainwashed macho clowns rather than being who really are, sensitive, creative and inspired people but most of us don’t follow our true natures because we’ve been told it’s sissylike, be a macho clown instead. What’s so beautiful about that, some asshole driving a big jeep, wearing a muscle shirt, a baseball hat backwards with an earring in his ear thinking he’s a real tough guy? So what. Women who dress to the nines even on an ordinary day

79
aren’t being beautiful. They’re just being pretensious. It’s not like a girl with natural beauty in her character that shows in her face such that it doesn’t matter what she wears, her beauty shows through. We live in a brainwashed world of pretensions. There are very few naturally beautiful people left anymore, people who are beautiful because they are following their true natures, being themselves the way the way they were born. We have a bunch of caricatures running around brainwashed by TV commercials and silly shows. They’re all messed up but the funny thing is that they don’t even know it. They think they’re cool and beautiful because they’re acting like some clone in the latest frivolous magazine but deep inside they feel the emptiness of someone who doesn't know who they really are therefore doesn't have that peace and relaxation about their lives. This is one of the big problems in capitalist society these days. All the women and some men are trying to manufacture a beautiful, cool look about themselves based on TV shows and advertising when they don’t realize that if they had the strength and freedom to focus on themselves as the pure individuals they are away from society they would be so much more beautiful.

80
There are a few beautiful people out there but not a lot. I find that the most beautiful women are the older ones who have gotten over all the pretense. Of the young ones, very few are strong enough to not get lured into that fake beauty industry out there such that they’re happy pursuing their lives without all the trendy clothes, the make-up, the jewelry, the hair color and the phony attitude borrowed from music videos and women’s talk shows.

Chapter 3. The Downside of Beauty

The Curse of Beauty

Never lose your head over a woman’s beauty, and don’t try to win a woman because she is wealthy. Sirach 25:21 Many strikingly beautiful women are cursed because firstly, there aren't enough good men to go around and secondly, most men are not cool enough to be themselves with a beautiful woman. We see it all the time in movies. The guy sees a beautiful woman, gets all flustered and screws up royally. Most men won't ask a beautiful woman out because they assume she's either high maintenance, perhaps outta their league, already spoken for or they're just too intimidated. There's even evidence to suggest that guys get more impotent with beautiful women than with ordinary looking ones because they know she can get any guy she wants making them try harder, getting flustered and it backfires leaving them limp.

82
Many men, being the insecure creatures they are, can get jealous of a beautiful woman because she seems to get all kinds of attention and breaks from people and they could be so insecure that they boil over whenver they see her talking to any man because they fear losing her. A beautiful woman signifies loss of control to a man. Some men can't handle it so they sabotage the relationship or find someone else who's a little plainer that they can have more control over. If you're beautiful, don't apologize for it but, at the same time, don't flaunt it. After 30 years old, you will be out of the beauty competition anyway. You will get fatter and a little uglier as some new, young cuties take their turn turning guys' heads. Be your beautiful self and hold out for a beautiful man who can appreciate your beauty. They are out there.

Nature’s Revenge on Beautiful, Young Women

The normal guy, if he could, would pick one girl who is his vision of beauty at her prime then clone her or inject her with a mythical fountain of youth drug so she would

83
stay that way forever and never age. As far as men are concerned, who are hooked on feminine beauty which is the province of youth, all women age and lose that sense of freshness, sex appeal and youthful beauty. This is the curse all women face, particularly the beautiful ones who base their entire worth on their looks. If you’re beautiful and rely on that to get you everything and you’ve got a bad, arrogant attitude to boot which most pretty, young women have, watch out. You’ll be sunk past the age of 35 when you’re no longer beautiful on the outside and your arrogant, snotty attitude on the inside will further alienate you from people. I’ve seen it many times before. Girls don’t realize they have a little window of time during their youth when they’re beautiful and fresh then after that, they won’t turn heads anymore so they won’t be able to manipulate men like they used to. Most beautiful young girls think they will be beautiful and tight forever. After I wrote this article, I was looking through an article in the National Enquirer called Stars With Cellulite. They had someone in there 27 years old looking bad but everyone else they had pictures of, who were all over 35, looked really bad.

84
You can make up your face but unless you exercise like those few female bodybuilders I know, your body’s tightness will be gone by the time you’re 40. That’s Nature’s revenge. That’s why I know all older broads are bluffing. They ain’t got the goods (beauty, tight body) to back it up. That’s why I know all that phony Sex & the City crap is just a big marketing ploy to sell product to older women to try to make them feel better for a minute or two but you are who you are. Better to work out hard than to buy into some fake pop culture delusion about how happenin’ and cougarish you are because babes with cottage cheese thighs ain’t got no leverage to be cougars and that’s reality. Do me a favor. If you got cottage cheese thighs, don’t wear skimpy bikini bottoms. It makes you look really skanky like an elephant trying to be sexy. I knew one girl, who was a fake blond with pretty big boobs. She always dressed like she was half naked, showing her boobs and she always acted uppity like she was the Queen of the world. She felt she was wonderful and perfect and flaunted it.

85
The problem is that she alienated everybody, even people she thought were her friends. This is what happens to all vain people. They alienate everybody. She thought they were all jealous of her. She didn’t realize it was because of her uppity attitude to put people down and act superior to them. A lot of vain, self-centered people don’t realize how callous they are. They’re so egocentric that they don’t have the ability to empathize, to feel what other people are feeling so they go on being abrasive and insensitive until either a group of people gangs up on them telling them how unpleasant they are or they find themselves alone with no true friends. I don’t know for sure what happened to her. She was the friend of a friend. I didn’t like her so I stayed away from her but I do know one thing for sure. Chances are she was gonna be screwed as she aged. A lot of pretty, young, arrogant women do not marry honorable guys because honorable guys are too smart to marry poison ivy. They marry flashy guys, some with money, who use that as their power in the world so their marriages are not based on love and they start to self-destruct as soon as the woman’s beauty starts to fade at about 30 and she

86
has a few kids. The guy who’s all flash has no loyalty. He’s looking for somebody younger. When his image as a cool dude starts to fade out in the world, he gets all messed up and abusive. He dumps her then all of a sudden this girl who was once vain and beautiful and now isn’t, doesn’t have a clue. She has no marketable skill, she doesn’t know what a mutual fund is so it’s poetic justice. She now has all the problems the regular pleebes have because she is one. A lot of young girls who think they’re pretty don’t realize how common feminine beauty is in young women. The fake blond with the big tits and the frivolous, vain personality are a dime a dozen. They’re everywhere. They have no inner beauty and don’t seem to be aware that other people are looking for that quality in a friend or a lover. They think they’re the package because they look like all the starlets on TV, the Anna Nicoles, the Jennies, the Jessica clones. They all think they’re hot on the outside but they have no aura of sincere warmth to them. Nature will get them all then they’ll be screwed because

87
they thought they’d be beautiful forever and that would be enough but now they’re just another middle-aged frump. The vain ones and the empty ones who never bothered getting a career and thought their looks would get them through life suddenly find themselves alone without the ability to charm their way through anything since they are now older and look used up. Don’t count on your looks to take care of you. I’ve seen plenty of girls that were hot stuff at 20 but are middleaged frumps now. All the girls I went to school with who were once hot stuff now look their age. Only the very rare bird with true inner beauty seems to defy her age in her looks. Most women get dumpy. They don’t culture their souls therefore the beauty that may be in their spirits doesn’t shine through. Read my money book, my jobs book and my business books.

Fashion: The Crown Jewel of Excess Gone Mad

The so-called fashion industry is a great example of material excess gone whacko. In Canada, we get a

88
fashion show called Fashion File. If you ever want a lesson in lost souls concerning themselves with something utterly useless, watch it. There must be an equivalent weekly fashion show in the United States. It’s so surreal to watch these people who have nothing in common with any human being I’ve ever known. Fashion adds nothing useful or meaningful to the progress of humanity, a bunch of people prancing around pretending there’s something deep, cool and advanced happenin’ there but of course it’s all a bunch of worthless delusions. It goes back to the Emperor’s New Clothes thing, some people living under a collective illusion for awhile. What exactly are they trying to project? If you wear certain clothes you will supposedly feel special and everyone will look at you because you will be so dazzling? Anybody who buys into this reveals to me how superficial they are. They’re not aware enough to realize you are who you are in your soul and beyond that clothes are function. And they’re not just superficial, it’s narcissism gone bad.

89
Narcissism is great if you see yourself as a great scientist who’s gonna create something that helps the world and you do but when you’re prancing around creating absolutely nothing useful except for glorifying yourself as to how beautiful, cute and sexy you think you are and our society doesn’t bat an eye at the absurdity of it all, I know there’s something seriously wrong with the society I live in. All this stuff is goin’ on while we have so many economic, political and life problems everywhere. There was some girl on the CBC show Fashion File who was this model supposedly turned singer. As I watched them showcase parts of her music videos, I couldn’t help but think what is the purpose of those music videos, to entertain people or to try to show off to yourself and to others how advanced, beautiful, cute and sexy you are. Where is the entertainment value in the artistic sense? Where is the attempt at great art versus cheap pop culture trash? We’ve seen these choreographed “sexy” dances in music videos all the way back to Janet Jackson. They’re passe by now. Why can’t a so-called musician make it on the music as opposed to the image?

90
Who is the target market for all this stuff? Another bunch of preteen girls will grow up thinking that being emptyheaded clones hooked on fashion, material excess and hair color is just the coolest, most glamorous way to be. I’ve seen two guys in the past month who colored their nails as a girl would do. Get a real life then you won’t have time for this foolishness. I bought a pair of sneakers that cost twenty bucks then a friend of mine bought a pair that cost a hundred and twenty bucks. I put the two pairs side by side and tried to see what the difference was except for the brand name. There was no observable difference to me. Instead of wasting perfectly good money on something useless you don’t need why not give it to help a peasant who needs it more than you need your vanity or a cute, compfy feeling of pampering yourself cuzz the TV commercial says, you’re worth it.

91
Chapter 4. True Beauty is Not Cosmetics

Feminine Beauty Info

Feminine beauty is internal. Remember the statement in Proverbs in the Bible (15:13), Joyful heart makes a beautiful face or Proverbs 31:30 that says charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting. You're only beautiful while you're young but your heart stays for life. Free yourself from cultural ideas of beauty and focus on your heart. Everyone ages. By 40, you're no longer considered a young beauty no matter how well you took care of yourself so do yourself a favor and focus on developing your soul while taking care of yourself physically but don't fall for that vampy, cheap look of too much makeup and too many trendy clothes and jewelry. The natural look reveals a finer character than that overdone socalled fashionable look. Don't take your frustrations out on yourself by blindly trying to measure up to the media ideal of feminine beauty or don't go to the opposite view and give up to live in the fantasy world of food, romance novels and tabloid gossip to give you a bland sense of comfort to

92
deal with your despair of not measuring up to the cute, bubbly illusions in the frivolous magazines and TV shows which tend to make us envious and neurotic about ourselves. Don't compete with other women. Be friends with them so that you help empower each other as you go along. The maxm put forth by many of our female gurus of the "You are the beloved. Be the Queen-princess-Goddess that you are" ideology is somewhat deceptive because it encourages a holier than thou, superior attitude that you expect men to worship you simply by virtue of the fact that you're a woman, supposedly the gentler sex who drives men wild by your beauty. Don't try to be this trendy, independent babe in full control of yourself if you expect to realistically score with good men. A lot of liberated women go to the opposite extreme of the passive woman complex to be loud, arrogant, un-ladylike bitches so go easy on that Goddess stuff. You're just an ordinary human being like the guy who wants to ask you out on a date. Don't make it harder on him by being a textbook case of the aloof, independent career babe who's got it all figured out without needing a man to take care of you. If you can't be soft, at least

93
learn to project the image of feminine softness. Men generally prefer simple girls because they give them what they want, female softness without all that profound psychobabble the more modern, so-called advanced girls have. That's not to say dumb yourself down or give up on men but live your own life first. If the right guy comes along and respects you for your independence and originality then he's worth it but if anyone less of a man comes by and romances you with cheap insincere gestures, think twice before you will compromise who you really are just to be with him. Men would really rather have both qualities, a girl with feminine softness who has enough abilities to make her own way in the world if need be because the nice soft girl who is the dependent flake drains too much out of the guy so it's always a middle ground. If you're too bitchy, as many girls are who feel a need to overcompensate for their perceived inferiority in the world, men won't go for it. You don't have to live in drama aspiring to be fabulously beautiful or stay insecure and neurotic as men want you to. Listen to your inner self in a quiet way. Life will still have challenges and foibles as it does for men but if

94
you listen to yourself, you know you will be living the right life true to yourself no matter what. Be good to yourself. Take it easy to enjoy your life. You can live an inspired, productive life and enjoy it if you listen to your soul, find something useful inside of you that earns you your keep or helps out your family and pursue it with a passion. Don't be afraid of disapproval for not knowing your place in this supposedly man's world. This is what the new era is all about, you becoming a liberated woman in full control of your life without worrying about the world out there limiting you in any way at all. Be more like a man without giving up your femininity. It's not a man's job to make you whole. It's your responsibility to be whole and if you are, the right man and other upstanding men will respect and even admire you for being who you are. By whole, I don’t mean some modern day career girl with a red corvette and a room full of trendy clothes. I mean an unassuming person with nothing to prove out in the world with a sense of peace who is following her true nature by doing good, worthwhile things that inspire her for her life without trying to be the next American idol or something like that. Pop culture wanna bees are

95
a dime a dozen. I like original girls who go beyond that world to try to do something, anything worthy that gets beyond this actress/ model, pop culture, trendy thing. Whenever I see a girl proclaiming her interest in being an actress or model, I know that in 98% of all cases, she’s not doing it for the inspiration of expressing her passions for the art of it, she’s doing it to become a jet-setter and a star and she won’t love any man as much as she loves herself. Books about womanhood are at #155.3, #301.427, #305.4 and #306.708 or HQ27 TO HQ1233 at the library. There are some books about the psychology of women at #155.3, #158 or BF637.

A Straight Guy Talks About Feminine Beauty

In the 1950s, only movie starlets and sex workers colored their hair. It was considered something unnatural and ungodly that only promiscuous, loose women did.

96
Later on in the sixties, some savvy advertisers turned it around to make it seem cosmopolitan, cool, popular and glamorous to color your hair by saying blondes have more fun, implying that it makes you look and feel glamorous and putting out the perception that all the cool, liberated women were doing it. Many women fell for it, colored their hair then waited for their lives to open up to the world of glamour and glitz, whatever that is. They’re still doing it en masse. They still seem to think it’s cool when the truth is that they must be pretty stupid to deny what hair color God gave them to put some chemical gunk in it because some asshole in some TV commercial said it would make them feel glamorous and they deserve it because they’re worth it. It was the same marketing psychology used to get women to smoke cigarettes. They implied that independent, confident women did whatever they wanted and nobody was gonna tell them what to do. These were supposedly things that liberated women did as a subtle sign of protest against the man and traditional values but the truth is that it was media manipulation all along that gave them these so-called rebellious behaviors

97
in order to sell them cigarettes and hair color so they were conforming to somebody else’s ideas of rebellion which were all geared to sell useless products to women who wanted to be cool and liberated. Who’s the sucker in this situation? As a man who lives by my pure essence as an individual, it’s as plain as day to me that who I am is fixed. It doesn’t change. There is no fantasy world somewhere with a red carpet that makes me all of a sudden feel different and special if I color my hair, put on some expensive clothes, jewelry and make-up then go there. It’s like the Wizaed of Oz’s big deception. There is nothing behind the curtain. Who I am is a constant controlled only by me not by any illusions and delusions from the outside world. There are no cool people anywhere all gathered for an easy-breezy cool, fun time as portrayed in TV commercials, music videos, movies and anything else in pop culture entertainment. Real life is what you alone create by yourself and with your intimates. Real life among people in general is more like the hate, jealousy and backstabbing you see on “reality” shows than some fake show about middle-aged women having all kinds of fun sleeping around. That’s the lie that

98
keeps middle-aged women buying loads of stuff because they think that somewhere over the rainbow, this illusory easy-breezy, cool, superficial, fun life exists but it doesn’t. No matter how you cut it, beauty in women is relegated to the grace of youth. After 35, they’re not fresh anymore so they go on the junk heap of humanity. Men are not instinctively attracted to older women. It’s got something to do with that subconscious biological desire to find someone young and healthy who can bear strong babies. Don’t buy into all this cultural indoctrination based on the lie that there is such a thing as glamour in real life. This term “glamour” is a marketing term geared to fool girls into thinking that if they buy loads of hair-color, cosmetics, jewelry and “fashionable” clothing, somehow their state of mind, their way of thinking will be elevated to a higher level where they feel fabulous and special about themselves as though they were living in a movie or a shampoo hair commercial but the truth is that it’s still them and their lives will continue to be ordinary until they figure out what inspires them then release all that natural energy with gusto until they hit the state of true euphoria without having to buy any of the junk at the mall.

99
The lie called fashion implies that different clothing has different effects on how you feel, how you look and how others see you but the truth is that you are who you are regardless of what you wear. Clothing, cosmetics, jewelry and hair color have nothing to do with your willpower, inspiration, work ethic, sense of happiness, your ability to be a good lover, your essence as a human being, your soul. People who concern themselves with these things to the point of vanity and extreme excess have a big hole in their souls. They don’t know their true identities, the way they were naturally born to be so they get sucked into this huge marketing machine telling them that buying frivolous junk will make them feel good and look cool and “fashionable.” Dressing sexy or slutty has a definite purpose to attract men and arouse them but wearing clothes to try to make a fashion statement as they call it is laughable to downto-earth people. It’s a big joke to me, kinda like The Emperor’s New Clothes, a big scam with all the idiots falling for it. The more “fashionable” you try to dress, the more other people know you’re a narcissistic, self-centered, cold bitch or bastard.

100
How many ways can you possibly design a dress? The so-called fashion designers say it’s hard work. All fashion lasts six months then it’s replaced by the next new fashion line until it’s recycled all over again in several years. How frivolous and useless can life be for people who buy into this stuff while there is so much real pain, suffering and need in the world? People think that other people are thinking about them, focussed on their look, analyzing it but most men could care less about what anyone else is wearing and most women are too busy thinking about themselves and their own look to spend any time thinking about you and your look except for the phony compliments. Who really cares about what you look like? Why do women silently compete with each other for who’s the prettiest, trendiest and coolest in the room, coolness as defined by the way the pop culture chicks act on TV? I think that frivolous women’s magazines put ideas into girls’ heads that they’re special, elitist princesses better than everybody else. That’s the way celebrities act, they’re cool and special so aspiring cool, popular girls everywhere try to imitate this I’m all that princess vibe. What about beauty pageants? Is that wholesome, healthy stuff or a great vehicle for the beauty industry to

101
advertise their products while warping women’s minds? In real life, it's all about function, what you do, how good of a friend you are not looks unless you plan to have sex with someone. Look counts for sex but if someone looks good and they got a nasty, bitchy personality, there ain’t gonna be no love there. I don’t care what anybody looks like unless I plan to sleep with them. I judge them by their character. The companies in the clothing, make-up and jewelry business constantly put out this lie that you can enter some fascinating, special state of mind and also enter an elitist red-carpet type world simply by gettinmg a makeover and buying a bunch of stuff to put on your body but it’s a massive con-job. Some TV commercial says lose weight so you can look cute in that tight little black dress. I take care of myself for my own self-respect not because I want to look cute so strangers and casual acquaintances that mean nothing to me might give me a compliment now and then. The capitalist forces have a great way to suck women out of their money. Constantly market beauty enhancements to them that will supposedly take years off their look. Aging is natural. The only way you can fight it is with healthy living, not with cosmetic surgery,

102
hair color, trendy clothes, etc. You are who you are in your soul. Nothing can change that except for a traumatic brain injury, chemicals or drugs that alter your brain chemistry or self-betrayal which takes you so far away from your true nature that you feel miserable all the time as in all the depressed people everywhere. They wonder why they’re so empty. It’s because they live by the artificial values of the world rather than by their true natures. If you’re really beautiful on the outside, it shows no matter what you wear or don’t wear. You can try to fake inner beauty but I have this feeling that most of us have an inborn intuition that tells us when we’re dealing with a wolf in sheep’s clothing aka reptile aka bitch. All the high fashions, jewelry and cosmetics in the world cannot make a reptile loveable or beautiful. If you have an ugly soul, it shows in your mannerisms, your inflections of speech (sarcastic, uppity, demeaning) and the resting expression of your face. In the Book of Proverbs in the Bible, they say a beautiful heart makes a beautiful face. I can usually tell who’s really happy and who’s not. It’s not that hard to know

103
what state of mind most people live in most of the time. Just take a good look at their face then look at their body. You intuitively know when someone is not in harmony with their true nature. Clothes, hair color, etc. are all evidence of how empty or fulfilled a person is on the inside. Being too trendy or too fashionable gives you away as either a self-centered, self-absorbed, uppity, frivolous person or somebody stupid enough to have allowed themselves to get massively brainwashed by the capitalist sales machine that tries to make you think that material things are the path to happiness but the only thing that can really make you feel good is earning your self-respect by releasing your natural energy everyday. Material things cannot give you self-respect or a sustained feeling of well-being. Try it. Go buy all the junk in the world then see how your state of mind doesn’t change a bit after the initial novelty wears off in ten minutes. It’s still the same old you with some meaningless glittery trash. There’s a big obvious contradiction in the hair coloring TV commercial where the so-called celebrity pitching the stuff turns to the camera at the end then with a snotty expression says, “You’re worth it.”

104
The plain truth is that if you really felt you were worth it, you would not entertain such stupid thoughts of coloring your hair because you would be happy with what God gave you and concern yourself with things that really matter. You would not be coloring your hair because some ass in some ad told you it would make you more glamorous and you would have more fun. We could solve all the hunger and poverty in the world if women stopped coloring their hair and stopped trying to fill the emptiness in their souls by buying frivolous things they don’t need but it’s not gonna happen. Watch TV on any given night. It’s all about marketing a fake “glamorous” world that exists only in the media to stupid women who can’t see past it. If a demand doesn’t exist, create it with flaky advertising. So, why am I so down on the beauty industries that sell cosmetics, jewelry, clothing, purses, shoes, etc. It’s not just because it has destroyed the minds and souls of many girls who could have been good-hearted, productive people but they got sucked into the fake world of pop culture coolness and now aspire to be like some flaky characters they saw on some TV show. Granted, girls want to look good to attract men but men aren’t stupid. They can usually spot a wholesome, goodhearted girl dressing nicely versus a vain girl gone crazy

105
for fashion and trendiness. A girl’s outer look gives her away. I and most other men know when we come across a self-centered girl full of herself at least partially based on frivolous stuff she read in a women’s magazine. The main reason I’m down on an excessive preoccupation with fashion and beauty products is that we could easily solve all the hunger, homelessness and poverty in the world if we, in the developed nations, took half of the money we spend on fashionable clothing, cosmetic surgery, shoes, make-up and hair color and donated it to help the poor people but we don’t. This is why material excess in any form is bad. No good-hearted person would blatantly live in material excess in any way at all including owning more dresses or shoes than they could ever wear or doing something as useless and meaningless as coloring their hair. True beauty is your love of your life and your expression of the soul or essence your God gave you to do something good and worthy for either your own appreciation of this gift to honor Him who created you or to help others. That’s it. You don’t buy beauty. You earn it by following your true nature to be the person you were born with the natural inclination to be.

106
All those skanks walking around with their roots showing through think they’re the bomb but to me, all I see are the words “another generic stupid fool living by the brainwash of the world” on their foreheads and I know why the western world is fucked. It’s just like Rome, too much frivolous excess destroys societies and empires.

My Take on the Lie of Feminine Beauty 1

Some girl who read my book after I passed it out to some of my acquaintances called me an arrogant asshole because she said I was so condescending to modern, western girls who color their hair and think they’re way worth it calling them generic, pop culture flakes. I laughed. It’s obvious. If you don’t present yourself to the world the way your God created you as you are, then there’s something wrong with you. You’re off-center trying to present some image to others by coloring your hair, wearing excessive jewelry, goin’ overboard on the fashions, trends and the look, even so far as to wear tongue rings and noserings. Strong, self-assured people don’t bother with that kind of stuff. They speak through their actions and don’t

107
particularly care what other people think of their socalled image either way, good or bad. I judge everyone by the way they present themselves to the world. If you’re trying hard for an image as opposed to just being who you are naturally then I got you pegged right away as a lost soul, not comfortable in your own skin, not strong enough to be who you are the way your Creator made you to be. You allowed yourself to get brainwashed by the world. I’ve come across a number of cons in my life, girls acting all sexy then when you move in to raise them a notch, you see someone scared who backs off when you get too close which is why I’m so cynical. Appearances don’t mean much to me anymore. A girl acting real sexy could be someone insecure trying to put out a façade to cover her frigidity or as they call it these days, sexual dysfunction while some mild-mannered librarian types turn out to be the greatest lovers. Like I said, there’s a lot of put-on or image out there that’s not real. If you were really a goddess, you wouldn’t be so crass as to wear a tattoo proclaiming it or have it on a license plate as I saw on a car. A true goddess is pure beauty, truth and love. She is totally fine with herself as is

without the need to buy into all the crap they’re trying to sell her in the name of fashion, beauty, vanity, trendy and looking young(er). She’s strong enough to be herself the way she was born and lives to explore whatever is good, beautiful, noble and inspired within herself without putting on any airs because she knows she is who she is in her head, that’s her base and she can’t be brainwashed by the pop culture, frivolous forces of the world. Who is natural and relaxed enough to be herself without buying into society’s indoctrinated cookie-cutter lifestyle? I’m a free being without the need for an external diety but the Bible and I agree on some points like 1 Timothy 2:9, who is a virtuous woman. The truth is that we have lost our way as a society. This is the battleground for your life right here as far as I’m concerned. Who is left trying to live a pure, original, free, inspired life for themselves versus the generic mass of mundane humanity brainwashed by the forces of capitalism and pop culture entertainment? Why are we so fat, pale, weak, uninspired, generic and stupid as a society in general? You don’t believe me?

109
Stand around any shopping mall and watch the people going in and out. How many look like they got some true joy in their lives goin’ on? There are very few girls left beautiful enough to try to be who they are the way they were born, trying to find whatever is good, natural, original and inspired within themselves. My definition of a beautiful girl is somebody who respects herself enough as an individual to explore who she is, discover her true identity and honor it but what we have now is a society of lost souls who have sold their individuality for the ideals of capitalism and pop culture marketing. Just watch the music videos showcasing our so-called female pop stars. There’s something off there. You can tell. It’s not art or an attempt to create something beautiful, noble and original. It’s just cloned soft porn, everybody imitating everyone else to try to be more sleazier and frivolous and we’re spozed to be the suckers who buy into this stuff if we want to appear as cool, cutting edge people to others. There’s spozed to be a difference between art and porn but the lines have blurred. There’s no true art within pop culture entertainment anymore. It’s all the same

110
crap and lots of people, including very young girls are brainwashed to think that it’s the cool, cutting edge of life so they imitate it. Where are the natural, wholesome ladies of substance with some depth, beauty, warmth and charisma about themselves? Where are the girls cool enough to be themselves the way they were born or are we just a bunch of cookie-cutter, generic people trying to imitate the latest “hot” pop star? If you like to shop for meaningless, trendy stuff to try to look cool like the characters you see on TV and in frivolous magazines, I don’t wanna have anything to do with you in any semblance of a loving, romantic way because you’re not a beautiful person, just another generic, one-dimensional brainwashed girl and they’re way too vain, cold, fake and self-centered for me, thinkin’ they’re all that, go girl, got it goin’ on, feel like a woman, livin’ large and in charge, don’t impress me much (snap your fingers real cool-like with your other hand on your thrust-out hip then turn around and strike a coy pose looking back like Paris does), all that and a bag o’ chips. I don’t care who you are, who you think you are or what so-called position of status you have out in the world. The second I see a hair coloring job on you is the second

111
I got you pegged. I know everything I need to know about you, namely that you’re frivolous and brainwashed enough to buy into that fake world out there where they tell you to color your hair ‘cuzz you’re worth it because you think it’s the entryway to some phony world called glamor that smart but fraudulent corporate executives have created that doesn’t exist in the real world. It’s all a marketing fantasy. The truth is that if you were really worth it, you would accept yourself the way your God created you and be concerned about matters of substance not your hair color which we all know doesn’t mean a damn thing beside what’s in your soul so if you do it, you’re just sending out a message to people like me how stupid and brainwashed you are.

My Take on the Lie of Feminine Beauty 2

If I ask you who wrote Beethoven’s Fifth and you don’t know, that’s pretty bad. If I ask you what 9 times 8 is and you don’t know, that’s Grade 5 stuff. How about name the two major political parties or what does IRS stand for? What about FBI? CIA? DC? NYC? OKC? WHO? NATO?

112
I’ve asked all these questions to adult females at one time or another and all of them got at least one wrong. What about being self-sufficient and aware of what’s goin’ on? I don’t wanna be with some helpless, dependent flake. I don’t care how externally beautiful she is. At the same time, I don’t want an efficient, neurotic battle axe. Where does earning your self-respect or doing something to help the world enter into it? We’re so busy trying to look cool and cute that we’ve screwed ourselves out of living full, free lives. The only thing I want in the loving, romantic sense is a girl who’s an artist of her life with some love and warmth in her. There are plenty of nice girls around but they’re generic. They’ve been brainwashed a bit by the pop culture, capitalist world they live in and have no natural, original, inspired sensibilities about doing something cool and transcendent with their ride of the human condition. There’s no vibrant, sustained intense love of life there beyond raising a few kids and watching soap operas.

113
A few girls are artists of their lives in the extreme sense where it’s all about them with no love or warmth for anyone else. It’s all about satisfying themselves through what they do. Who wants to be with someone like that even if you understand each other? These would be like some of the so-called divas in the pop culture realm. This is why many pop singers and movie starlets are single. No self-respecting guy is gonna be with someone like that. A wimp would but not a real man. That’s why you see some of them with wimpy, little guys that they own. Why can’t they find true love with a real, upstanding man as opposed to using a guy as a disposable pet? The feminists used to say Madonna was too much woman for most men. If this is true, why didn’t she get some strong alpha male who matched her alleged high archetype of womanhood? She got a little lightweight instead because she was desperate because no selfrespecting man would go near her because she was so self-centered and vain not because she was allegedly so much of a woman. There are a lot of girls who have no inner warmth or love inside of them despite the fact that virtually

114
everybody sees themselves as warm and loving people. There’s nothing bohemian or original about these girls either. They could be the young, current trendsetters or older career girls who have made it out in the capitalist world but to a guy like me it’s like so what. It don’t impress me much. If I can’t sense an intuitive aura of inner warmth and genuine niceness nor a nice quality of an individual trying to follow what’s in their souls to be the person they were naturally born to be as opposed to being brainwashed, fashionable trendsetters, it ain’t gonna happen. I don’t care how trendy you look, how successful you are out there or the long way you’ve come, baby, you’re just a bunch of generic, lost, brainwashed, cold, empty souls thinkin’ you got it goin’ on ‘cuzz you’re imitating what you saw in some TV commercial about a cool, modern, liberated, happenin’ babe. Guys aren’t that stupid. A lot of us see through the bull. Where’s the real person versus the brainwashed one? True beauty is a quality you either have about yourself or you don’t. No amount of trendy clothes, hair coloring, cosmetics or jewelry can give it to you but a lot of girls are brainwashed by the mass media-corporate machine to think that this is what cool girls do, fill

115
themselves up with all this artificial marketing crap to make themselves look fashionable, modern and trendy therefore desired by men. Men are attracted to pretty girls in a sexy way just like they’re attracted to pictures of pretty naked women in porn mags but in order to take it one qualitative step higher to be attracted to a girl for who she is, something about her has to touch the guy in his soul. She has to have a kind of natural inner warmth and beauty with some humility to her because humility means you’re a good person not overly concerned with your look/ image but concerned with things that really matter in life such as trying to better yourself to earn a better living, doing inspired things out of your love of life and helping out the less fortunate sometimes but the marketing forces of our society have brainwashed a lot of women to aspire to be vain and cute in a phony, orchestrated way. It sucks for guys looking for girls without the pretensious masks on, always trying to keep up with some fantasy image borrowed from a frivolous women’s mag or some silly hair coloring commercial telling you to color your hair ‘cuzz you’re worth it when the truth is that if you were really worth it, you’d be much too strong and comfortable with your identity to do

116
something that useless and blatantly fake since all enlightened people know that no amount hair coloring gunk can do anything for the person you are in your soul. It does the exact opposite. It shows people like me that you’re so generic and uninspired that you let yourself get taken away by all that low-level marketing crap out there. I don’t want to have anything to do with someone like that in the romantic sense. It’s not the real world and I have contempt for smallminded, brainwashed people who think it is and are so weak that they take on images that aren’t the real them, thinking they’re cool when they’re really lost souls. There’s your chasm of differences between the sexes right there. Guys in general live in the real world. They want somebody real. It doesn’t mean you sacrifice your femininity. Just get off this trivial, little lifestyle you read about in frivolous women’s mags and get over this obsession with home décor and celebrity gossip. It’s all meaningless junk meant to help lost souls spend their money to try to give them some temporary sense of worth or titillation. Watch the TV commercials on any women’s network on any given night and you’ll see there’s something

117
seriously wrong with the way they market products to women as to what constitutes the feminine ideal. It’s really sad that we live in a society of women largely brainwashed by the corporate definition of beauty which is to keep buying new clothes, make-up, jewelry, shampoo and hair color, constantly obsess over your weight thereby spending more money on scam diet books, scam diet food and useless exercise equipment at the expense of following whatever may be inside of you as an individual that’s natural, original and inspired. And let’s not forget the fake wrinkle, skin rejuvenating creams. The reason I say useless exercise equipment is because the best exercises are free; walking, running, swimming, biking and for muscle exercise, nothing is better than the old-fashioned barbell. All those exercise machines you’ve seen on infomercials in the past twenty years are a big crock of marketing deception. I’m still a sexual being. I can play along with any girl for the possibility of casual sex but I don’t come across too many kindred spirits or soulmates, girls with the inner beauty to live their own lives without being brainwashed by all that pop culture marketing crap out there.

118
It’s taken us over and destroyed many of the weak people among us who live what comes down to little spoonfed trivial lives without tasting the beauty and transcendence of an intense, inspired exertion of their natural lifeforce which is all that matters to people like me. That’s why I laugh contemptuously at frivolous, pop culture girls who think they got it goin’ on because they got a boob job, some hair color and trendy looking new boots. None of that stuff comes close to the girl who has a beautiful soul, trying to live her life naturally by what she feels within with some intensity, passion, conviction and gusto. Who are you purely in the privacy of your mind away from everything you’ve ever been indoctrinated by? If you’ve got any guts, this should be your only truth in life.

Why Men of Substance Can’t Stand Pop Culture Girls

On the version of the TV show The Bachelor where they had the Italian-American prince, there was one Italian girl in the midst of all the American girls so when she’s talking to the prince, she says something like the

119
American girls are acting like a bunch of phony-bubbly airheads. It seems like most American girls are brainwashed by pop culture entertainment, frivolous women’s magazines and hair coloring commercials while in other parts of the world, they’re more real and down to earth. They live in these naïve fantasy worlds of TV reality and don’t start to get real until they pass 35 years old. That’s why a lot of American and Canadian guys are turned off by local girls. They all got that same, generic, unreal, naïve, limited headspace. Where’s the original one strong enough to be herself away from all that crap? The pop culture image of women is geared for one thing, to sell product. By making clothing and jewelry look sexy and getting “sexy” manufactured pop stars to advertise them, manufacturers rake in the bucks. This is the bottom line. In the process, they create a demand for this stuff and set the standard for what’s spozed to be cool and hot right now. What does this do to teenage girls, young women and even older women? It makes them think that dressing like a stripper or a hoe in a music video is cool and it will make them popular

120
and desired by boys but a guy like me asks what is the definition of a lady. Do you know what the term cultural indoctrination means? Are you aware that intelligent people out there including intelligent studly, noble guys who see you like this, following trends, know you’re a weak, stupid human being for allowing yourself to be manipulated by pop culture-corporate forces like that? But the thing is that the average, brainwashed girl is so limited that she doesn’t know she’s been handily brainwashed. She just follows what she sees on TV and what her brainwashed friends do and never questions what she’s doing. Where do you the individual start and where does the world end meaning all that stuff you put on to try to project an image about yourself? What is your identity away from your clothes? What do you do with your life that’s intense, tough, inspired and worthy, if anything? Are you a brainwashed clone? Would a lady of substance wear stripper clothes just because she saw it in a music video? It shows how powerless you think you

121
are when you rely on clothing for a sense of identity. From the other point of view, the way girls are portrayed in pop culture, as bimbos, makes them look this way to guys. Some guys grow up not seeing a female individual but seeing a sex object. All this is sanctioned by corporate interests trying to make a buck off it. You got girls in video games, music videos and most entertainment TV shows portrayed as sex objects where they use their sex appeal to get what they want out of guys. This is the standard of a brainwashed pop culture clone but is it the standard of ladyhood? Guys aren’t stupid or at least the good ones aren’t. They know the difference between a brainwashed pop culture clone and someone having a standard of ladyhood. The girl dressed sexy is seen as a sex object. The other one is seen as someone with standards who might make a good wife but this is too one-dimensional. Guys don’t want a girl brainwashed by music videos but they also don’t want a girl brainwashed by her church and the protected life in the suburbs. They want somebody real who knows what’s going on in the world with some common sense. If you’re truly cool, you don’t have to flaunt it. Your

122
identity is inside of you based on what you do which gives you your self respect which is why guys looking for a serious relationship will look for the calm girl who’s not following trends as opposed to the over-thetop one who is perceived as a sex object. My point is don’t think that guys are stupid. When you dress sexy, it doesn’t make you look cool as the advertisers of this clothing want you to think, it makes you look like a trashy sex object. Guys might approach you because they think you’re liberated and stupid enough to be an easy lay but as far as respect goes for a possible love relationship, guys want a girl with standards who they think will be a good mother who will be more concerned with raising kids than the latest fashions.

Too Much Make-up

I can tell right away when somebody’s wearing too much make-up. You can’t win by doing this. It makes you look bad either way. If you’re naturally pretty, it just makes you look vain and stupid for buying into the brainwash of cosmetics advertising.

123
If you’re not so pretty, it’s a futile attempt to put crap on your face to try to enhance your look but it never works because you are what you are. Focus on the person you are on the inside. After about the age of 35, that goes a much longer way than some pretty, young, self-centered girl full of herself. To me, it’s kinda like there’s natural and wholesome then there’s fake and pretensious. I think some make-up is fine but when it crosses the line such that my first thought upon seeing someone is “too much make-up”, it makes me think that the girl must be insecure, brainwashed and/ or stupid. I’ve seen pretty girls wearing lots of make-up and thought to myself, what a waste. It’s like painting the Statue of David. It cheapens it.

Chapter 5. We Color Our Hair While Poor Children Starve

My Personal Cause: Food not Hair Color

I come across women all the time and some men who try to act like they’re intelligent, extroverted, happy, engaged, altruistic individuals but as soon as I see those roots showing through on their heads, I know right away that despite all their pretenses, they couldn’t be that smart, nice, kind or enlightened because they’re stupid enough to fall for cheesy marketing by hair coloring companies about how something as superficial as hair dye will make them look more sexy and glamorous such that as fake blondes they will have more fun. On top of that, I come across girls who claim to be working and volunteering for charitable, altruistic causes but they couldn’t all that nice if they spend x number of dollars on such a meaningless, useless thing like coloring their hair while some kid is starving somewhere and some abused animal is being euthanized because the pet shelter can’t afford to keep him. It doesn’t make any sense to me. If I’m looking for a soulmate or kindred spirit with a pure heart, it absolutely

125
will never be someone who colors their hair because that very act tells me she doesn’t have enough natural beauty or wisdom to be herself the way she was created by God or Nature whichever you believe. She is stupid enough to fall for flaky, lying pop culture marketing. To me that’s spiritual pollution. I’m not interested in brainwashed people doing stupid stuff to try to appear cool to others as defined by the fake beauty industries of fashion, cosmetics and hair color even if they are supposed high-status accomplished people like lawyers, teachers, doctors, journalists, etc. They’re living by society’s marketing standards not by their own natural beauty which means they do not have true beauty. All that stuff doesn’t do anything for what’s in your heart and soul yet multi-millions of girls think it does. It has the exact opposite effect. It makes you look brainwashed, pretensious and weak, living by other people’s standards other than your own. All the money spent on phony enhancements that they say will enhance your beauty but really doesn’t can easily solve much of the poverty in the world. I believe the money spent everyday on hair coloring alone is enough to feed every hungry child on the planet for that day.

126
I believe all the money spent on nail polish is probably enough to pay for every child’s education on the planet through to high school. So, what’s really worth it, the chick who colors her hair or the one who keeps her natural hair color and donates some of their extra money to help feed poor children? I say that the hair coloring companies have managed to transform a useless product that is actually harmful to your health (because the chemicals enter your body through the pores in your skin) from something tacky that only sex workers and frivolous actresses did a few generations ago into something that you now do because they say you’re worth it. The truth is if you really felt you were worth it, you would be above the need to color your hair to try to conform to some deluded idea of glamor these marketing companies try to suck you into. If a number of people go to the mass media and constantly say hair coloring is cheap, stupid, uncool and trailer trash-like with all them roots showing through, we can stop brainwashed women and men from thinking hair color is cool so they’ll stop using it and maybe donate their hair color money to feed poor children.

127
Why try to be something you’re not and deny your Godgiven hair color? Why not stop coloring your hair and give the money to a worthy charity. We have to convince the women of the world that coloring your hair does not make you look more sexy, fake blondes do not have more fun and you were actually very stupid to buy into all that brainwashing crap about being more glamorous that the hair coloring companies constantly pummel at you in advertisements. Simply give the money you would have spent on hair color to feed poor children. I believe it would be enough to feed everybody. Everytime you would have colored your hair, you donate the money instead. feedthechildren.org fh.org, food for the hungry. foodforthepoor.org, food for the poor, inc.

Food not Hair Color: Solve World Hunger 1

Think of hair coloring as selling your soul. The more you use, the more fake you look. Before 1967, most women thought only hookers and actresses colored their hair then Clairol came out with a commercial that asked “Does she or doesn’t she” implying you can’t tell if she colors her hair if she uses Clairol hair color but nobody ever told them that skanky roots would be showing through in a week. Nowadays, according to Bill O’Reilly’s advertising documentaries at cbc.ca, 60% of all American women color their hair. Are they that stupid and weak that they allowed themselves to get brainwashed by a few hair coloring company advertising executives putting lies into their heads about some fake world called glamour for sale in a bottle of hair color.

130
How can anyone possibly think that by denying what God gave them to color it over with some tacky, cheap, superficial gunk will make them look more fascinating, beautiful, glamorous and advanced? That’s why I still laugh at all those stupid women who think they’re so cool and fashionable yet they do something as utterly useless, meaningless and stupid as color their hair because some jerk-off in some TV commercial tells them they’re worth it. If you were really worth it, you would not waste your time on this foolishness. My idea is to start a nonprofit organization called Food not Hair Color, Hair Color for Breast Cancer or something like that which will be about trying to make hair color uncool by telling women they don’t have to manufacture a fake image about themselves just because they are bombarded by ads and surrounded by generic clones who buy into it. Women should be themselves the way they were born and donate the money they would have spent on it to feed hungry children. This is an idea I’m putting out there for anyone who wants to do it. I won’t do it because I already have a full life.

131
I was watching a TV talk show geared for middle-aged women and how they stay young. I was kind of surprised when one of the so-called experts cited four things that keep you young: Diet Exercise Moisturizer Hair color It was no joke that she said hair color. Nobody laughed or skipped a beat. It was then that I realized one of the big rifts in the battle of the sexes. Men value somebody real and natural who are thinking about doing worthwhile things with their lives. Frivolity doesn’t enter into it for real men of substance. When you color you hair, you’re not doing it for you because it changes nothing about the person you are. You’re sending the message off that you’re doing it for image, because you want to be perceived as cool and glamorous by others. That’s a sign of weakness right there. You’re not strong enough to be yourself the way your God created you. Secondly, you’re actually taking the time to concern

132
yourself with your look. That’s vain and frivolous, two qualities I would not want in a mate. To me, the most physically beautiful women are the most natural ones. They don’t need a bunch of crap on their face and hair to try to enhance themselves. The beauty is there. It goes from their souls to the outside. I can tell when I come upon someone with a beautiful soul. You can’t fake these things. You either have true beauty or you don’t. If anyone wears a lot of make-up and colors their hair, it cheapens and lessens my attraction to them. We live in a society that’s so brainwashed that the women at that talk show didn’t wince when the supposed expert cited hair coloring as one of the keys to vitality, youth and health. It’s such a hypocritical contradiction, putting some gunk in your hair to make you more vital. How much more stupid, brainwashed and frivolous can you get? And then I see some broad on some show acting like some ecology expert/ activist and she colors her hair. What a lie. If you truly believed in Mother Nature, you would be yourself naturally and not buy into that phony world of hair color. You give your true self away despite the pretenses you put forth about how serious-

133
minded you are and how much you care about the world. The most beautiful and youthful people are the ones doing substantive things with their lives. They have that beautiful glow about themselves naturally. The second you color your hair is the second you announce to the world how brainwashed, stupid and frivolous you are and I for one read an entire woman’s character based on that one thing alone. It’s like cyanide. One drop pollutes the whole barrel. You can’t be just a little bit frivolous and brainwashed. You’re either natural and original or a brainwashwashed clone buying into some phony world called glamor which is one big pretense. I could never be attracted to anyone who colors their hair. It goes against everything I believe in which is to be natural and real. Don’t buy into that phony world of capitalist excess and pop culture entertainment if you want to attract an honorable, genuine man. If you do, men of substance will see you as a frivolous, brainwashed clone, somebody they’re not attracted to. Another thing that gets me is you have these women who obviously don’t have outer beauty. They could be older, overweight and generic, uninspired people. You can tell they just don’t have that spark for living original,

134
inspired lives yet why do they color their hair? Do they think it’s gonna make them look glamorous or beautiful? You don’t fool anyone. All you’re doing is announcing to the world that you’re trying this cheap, cosmetic attempt to beautify yourself when you’re totally off because beauty starts in the soul. You either got it or you don’t. It’s written on your face and on your body. Your biography becomes your biology. How you live determines how you look, at least after 30 when the grace of youth is gone. You get the body and face you deserve by 45. You either still got the inspired beauty or you’re a chubby, generic person watching talk shows, grasping at straws for a lifeline to get you out of your silly, brainwashed life for a minute. When you don’t have it and try to do something useless like color your hair, it makes you look doubly worse. First of all, you don’t have the spark of beauty and secondly, you’re doing this silly thing to try to get a piece of it. The end result is that you look pathetic, like a lost soul brainwashed by her pop culture delusions. If you were really worth it like those so-called celebrities in the TV commercials say with their pouty faces, trying to act all special, you’d be above the need to color your

135
hair for some phony, silly delusion that you think it makes you look sexier and more glamorous. They try to imply that you color your hair because you’re worth it but the truth is that if you were really worth it, you wouldn’t need to do something as silly and brainwashed as putting some chemical gunk in your hair to try to manufacture a phony image about yourself. If you want to be a brainwashed clone, go ahead but you’ll never get a true, worthy man of substance interested in you because to him, hair color is a sign that you’re weak enough to be brainwashed by the frivolous forces of society that are based on trying to enhance your look without any true backbone while not being strong enough to figure out that it’s all crap and stand on your own as the true individual you should be.

Food not Hair Color: Solve World Hunger 2

I come from the real and natural school of life. Present yourself to the world as you are as your God created you and I’ll respect you for being strong enough to be who you really are.

136
Try to be some fake, frivolous, phony trendy person and I’ll laugh contemptously to myself while I’m thinking, “Another generic, brainwashed fool. Who’s she trying to kid about thinking she’s being some cool person because she’s doing something as stupid as coloring her hair because some ass in some TV commercial told her she was worth it.” When you color your hair, what you’re doing is putting a message on your forehead that says, “I’m a frivolous, brainwashed part of the herd, buying into all that stupid capitalist, pop culture crap out there.” As if coloring your hair is gonna magically do something for you beyond making you look like a polluted peabrain. Hair coloring is a symptom of a sick society. People who feel good about themselves are self-assured enough to have no need to prove anything to anyone other than to themselves and are comfortable with the way their Gods created them naturally. Everybody who colors their hair, despite what pretenses they put forth about how cool, enlightened, trendy, glamorous, sophisticated, wise, professional and worth it they are, have something missing inside by virtue of doing this. At the very least, they’re just stupid clones brainwashed

137
by the corporate-pop culture marketing lie that says that coloring your hair will make you feel glamorous, cool and trendy. On a deeper level, if you color you hair, you are denying the real you for some reason that makes you feel not good enough about the way your God created you and you think that doing something this superficial will enhance your life somehow when anybody who knows anything, knows that everything about an individual’s sense of well-being comes from their soul, not from a bottle of hair color. What you’re really doing is advertising to all the enlightened people in the world how unenlightened, brainwashed, superficial, stupid and frivolous you are by doing something this meaningless and useless in light of what’s really going on in the world. Some girls who color their hair lie like hell about it, pretending they’re natural blondes, redheads or whatever color they’re using. You don’t fool anyone. It’s as plain as day. Coloring your hair will not make you look sexy, exciting, glamorous, interesting or beautiful. It’s all about the essence within you that intuitive people can sense.

138
The truth is that coloring your hair produces the exact opposite effect you want among enlightened people. They see that you’re so weak and brainwashed that you do something this stupid to try to get some lift out of it. I presume you color your hair because you’ve seen all the ads proclaiming how cool and sexy it is and see all the other women do it in your neck of the woods so you think it must be cool and sexy but it just shows that regardless of anything else you do, you’re still just a brainwashed part of the herd being fake, not real, strong or enlightened enough to just be yourself. That’s the way I see it and I would like nothing better than for women to open their eyes, get real and put these stupid hair coloring companies out of business. If you want to be taken seriously, how could you possibly color your hair? Everytime I see a hair coloring commercial on TV which is quite a lot because they’re always advertising, I think to myself how can they be doing this when the world is in such a mess and there is so much need everywhere. It kinda smacks of the Gatsbys, these elitist people off in the corner living their self-centered, deluded lives while everybody around them was hungry and jobless. How

139
can any thinking, feeling woman do something as silly as coloring her hair rather than spend the time and the money on helping some poor kid somewhere? This is why I don’t respect women that color their hair all that much regardless of what supposed position they have in the world. You’re no different than the stupid kids in high school living for image, for what you think other people think of you when enlightened people live by their own codes. They know everybody else’s thoughts are inferior to theirs regarding their lives so they don’t care what others think of them and don’t delude themselves into thinking that other people are actually thinking about them. Every enlightened person knows that everybody is thinking about themselves not thinking about other people all that much. Girls wonder why they can’t get a guy when they’re doing all the right things according to the pop culture mentality which implies, through TV, magazines and movies, that girls who color their hair, wear the latest fashions, do the latest trends like wear noserings, etc., are cool and happening and they’re the ones the guys are attracted to. Some guys might be attracted to them as

140
possible sex in a trailer trash way but real men see past all the pop culture pretense and look for a real girl who’s not obsessed with her look, who’s unassuming enough to be herself the way she was born and brought up and tries to do something substantive with her life rather than just try to imitate the latest pop stars she sees in music videos. When you put stuff in your hair to color it, you’re following what some assholes dreamed up in a corporate room for a hair coloring company then paid some superficial chicks to prance around in some ad acting like they’ve got nothing better to do with their lives than color their hair because, as they say, they’re worth it. This is the big deception of a pop culture media-soaked society. It has warped women’s views on what it means to be virtuous, real, solid, ladylike and attractive to men of substance. Whether the Bible is true or not is irrelevant. The fact is that is has provided us with wisdom on what it means to be a virtuous woman as discussed elsewhere in this book but based on what I see, most girls who color their hair are pop culture clones rather than truly virtuous, wise women. To put it more simply, there’s no logical or emotional

141
reason to color one’s hair unless it’s part of your job in a theatrical performance. It doesn’t change who you are on the inside, it does nothing to enhance your look on the outside, it just makes you look fake and superficial.

Food not Hair Color: Solve World Hunger 3

There’s not one good reason in the world I can think of anyone to color their hair except for maybe older women trying to cover some grey but why bother to deny the natural process of aging. It’s like who cares anyway. I would venture to say that most young girls and even older women have all these warped views about their value as human beings and spend way too much time obsessing with their looks when firstly, looks go beyond the outer shell to encompass what’s in the soul. It radiates through one’s entire being. Secondly, there are real problems and issues in the world and tangible things to do with one’s life rather than try to belong to that fake in-group the pop music d.j. on the radio is always talking about, things that supposedly cool people fill up their time with but to a guy like me, it’s all limiting, brainwashing crap.

142
Thirdly, true beauty is intangible. You either got it or you don’t. There’s nothing you can do either way to change the way others, namely potential suitors, see you. They’ve already made up their mind shortly after they see you for the first time. Pop culture guys might think the colored hair shows you’re funky but guys looking for a real girl will just see another pop culture clone. If you don’t do tangible, naturally inspired activities that expend your energy and make you feel good about yourself but choose instead to color your hair and try to imitate the latest flake celebrity of the month then you’re giving off the vibe to men of substance who can see past all that crap that you’re just another stupid, lost soul, pop culture clone trying to act like you’re all that with some phony aura of glamour surrounding you. All you girls are brainwashed into thinking that bleach blond hair, fake boobs and fake fingernails are attractive but most guys see a big phony sign on your forehead when they see that. I intuitively know that a girl like that is self-centered and vain. She thinks she’s all that. She’ll try to manipulate me to do her bidding and if she doesn’t get her way, she’ll throw a temper tantrum like a two-year old kid. Beauty with vanity equals emptiness and coldness. I don’t need it. All the make-up, high fashions and hair coloring in the

143
world will not make someone beautiful. She looks either healthy as is without make-up on with a look of vitality on her face or she doesn't. Feminine beauty goes beyond the physical look to encompass something in the soul that can’t be defined. If you add hair color to it, it just lessens your dignity or nobility in some way. It’s your choice, be yourself or be a clone. Men instinctively see this in every girl they look at. They have a built-in standard. There's nothing you can do to beautify yourself except to live a healthy lifestyle; eat the right foods, exercise and be happy with your life. I'm a basic guy who likes healthy, unpretentious girls who are being themselves not caked over with make-up or the latest fashions. I feel that coloring what God gave you is cheap and can't understand why all these girls walk around openly letting their dark roots show through that tacky looking coloring job. It doesn't look cool, it looks skanky like you're trying to deny the real you to be some phony glamourous bitch living large out of the pages of one of them stupid socalled glamour magazines. I might make some allowances for a girl under 22 who’s

144
just feeling her way through the world but anyone over 25 should be ready to accept who they are and stop with the silly, superficial experiments. All those middle-aged women I see around with their Phds and their supposedly high status jobs give their true selves away when I see that dye job in their hair. Despite all your supposed wisdom and intelligence, you’re still a lost soul defining yourself by your need to meet some phony standard of glamour out there so to people like me, you’re not smart, wise nor noble despite your position as manager of something. You’re a fool who doesn’t fool people like me. You haven’t got past high school mentality. They had a piece on TV about Washington, DC’s first female police chief. There she was with that tacky hair coloring job. She didn’t fool me for a second. Men look at that and know she’s another generic, brainwashed broad. Her title doesn’t mean a damn thing to how I perceive her. The simple act of hair coloring gives you away as a superficial, brainwashed clone, even if you're an office manager with that slick, professional, done-up look trying to act all serious and efficient.

145
You give yourself away that underneath your responsible façade, you’re no different than some dumb 14 year old girl trying to achieve some phony feeling of glamour the corporations have brainwashed you with such that if you use their gunk, life will be lived through rose-colored glasses, you’ll relish in this aura of a Cinderella dream and feel special because, as they say, you’re worth it, sucker. How can you honestly expect men to take you seriously when they know you preen in the mirror and put those chemicals in your hair in some misguided attempt to make yourself more beautiful than you are now? Why do people try to deny graying hair or a wrinkly face? That's who you are, that's what God gave you. Who really cares anyway? Most people think other people are checking them out, thinking about them but the truth is that most people are thinking about themselves. It's irrelevant to them whether you got that $5000 facelift or not. Real people have too much dignity to openly be this fake. Thirty years ago, it was a dead giveaway that you were trailer trash. Nowadays, everybody seems to have degenerated into

146
trailer trash. It does nothing to the development of your soul. It just makes you look like a fake, especially if you let those roots show through, kind of like one inch of dark roots on a bleached head. How trailer trash skanky can you get? Don't you feel insulted when they tell you to color your hair because you're worth it when the truth is that any enlightened girl would not color her hair precisely for the fact that she respects herself enough to not follow this tacky ritual all the dumb clones do because they were brainwashed into thinking it makes them look glamorous but all it really does is announce to the world that you're not real enough to be yourself and you're so brainwashed that you have to dabble in something so superficial to try to enhance yourself somehow. Men want the real deal, not some pop culture clone. And then when I see all these self-proclaimed Christians with their colored hair, I wonder what happened to Timothy's letter in the Bible where he tells you to be humble and not be a superficial lover of yourself. I thought that Christians spent their time helping their fellow man not obsessing over their superficial looks. A true Christian has no business doing something as frivolous and useless as coloring their hair. You're a hypocrite.

147
According to UNICEF, over 32,000 kids die everyday, mostly of diseases relating to malnutrition and you're that callous that you buy hair color rather than give the money to help some poor kid somewhere. It’s very easy to end world hunger. Start a campaign renouncing hair color as a foolish, stupid activity that only brainwashed pop culture clones do in order to give it a reputation as an uncool thing that only frivolous phonies do and tell the people to donate the money they would have spent on hair color to an end world hunger charity. Live-Aid happens only once every twenty years. You could keep this going ad infinitum and help the ecocause out too by stopping people from using these chemicals. Somebody should start a website called foodnothaircolor.com to get some publicity to try to put the hair coloring companies out of business by exposing how tacky and useless it is and asking people to trade their hair color money for food to help poor people. If all the women and men in the civilized world donated the money they would have spent on hair color to charities that help poor people, my guess is that there

148
would be enough to completely eliminate world hunger but I don’t expect this to happen anytime soon because the hair coloring corporations and pop culture entertainment industries have got their hooks into the minds and souls of most women and some men so deeply that they will continue to think it’s so cool to do something as silly as coloring your hair while some kid somewhere is starving to death. This is why I think I live in a stupid, sick world. Some people are starving while others have nothing better to do than color their hair while the hair coloring corporations make money hand over fist for selling something that serves no useful function and could even be dangerous to one’s health because you are putting chemicals on the skin which the body has to fight off. I will have sex with a girl who colors her hair because after all I am a generic hedonist but as far as love goes, if a girl is that flaky to color her hair, she’s beneath my standards as a dignified human being with true substance. A solid lady wouldn’t need to do that crap because her sense of identity would be within herself. She wouldn’t have to do these cheap gimmicks to get a sense of glamour or worth about herself because she would know it’s all a lie created by that fake mainstream media world

149
we live in that has brainwashed just about everybody out there. That’s the first sign of real class, somebody who doesn’t have to color their hair. Paraphenylenediamine, an ingredient in hair dye, can damage the lens of the eye not to mention that it can contribute to auto-immune diseases.

Chapter 6. I Like ‘em Real & Natural

Self-Exploitation: Sleaze vs. Wholesome Beauty

Which are you: Artificial vs. Natural. Phony vs. Real. Pop culture clone vs. Being your real self. I think the biggest mistake a lot of young girls and even older women make in their quest for a man is that they think that all that stuff in cosmetics commercials, frivolous women's magazines, the so-called fashion industry, the cult of celebrity and manufactured pop stars is cool, happening stuff and they try to imitate it but they got it all wrong because it's all fake, pretense, outer glitter, the phony outside covering. It has nothing to do with the substance of the individual on the inside. Real men don’t adore girls unless they’re worth it and I’m not talkin’ worth it in the stupid hair coloring commercial cliché which implies that you color your hair because you value yourself as worth it when the truth is that women or men who are really worth it and know within themselves that they are wise, enlightened,

151
noble people are much too focused on things that really matter in life to do something so outwardly vain and frivolous as color their hair. Nobody who is a truly cool person would ever color their hair because a truly cool person is happy with themselves, the way their God created them. They would never do anything this crass and tacky. Men of substance are not fooled by fakes. Men are basic meat and potatoes. They would rather have you be straight than be cute because cuteness is elitist, manipulative and frivolous. Be real with guys in a substantive way and your true beauty will shine through. Most men, except for the few who might read GQ and a few superficial guys who might want a cosmeticboobed, bleach blond trophy girl, are natural and real, that's what they want and that's what they believe in as the feminine ideal of a beautiful girl both on the inside and the outside. When you put on all that crap to enhance your look and color your hair, plenty of guys will be attracted to you for the wrong reasons. They will think you're funky and happening and have the loose morals to go with it because you're covering

152
yourself with all that stuff which is synonomous with trying to be a liberated, modern contemporary Jezebel which implies a casual, go-girl, promiscuous attitude towards sex. Guys will want to have sex with you, a transient pseudolove relationship but for real love, they want somebody real, beautiful and natural enough not to need that stuff to be who she is. Two passages out of the Bible spell it out; the passage about the virtuous wife in the earlier Christian section and the one from Proverbs 15:13, joyful heart makes a beautiful face. If you cake too much make-up on, it just looks fake, like a put-on but if you're a naturally nice, beautiful person, it shows all over because you have that glow about you that says you respect your life enough to try to do something positive and worthy with it not just sit around trying to look pretty and trendy. Sure, all guys are dogs and gentlemen at the same time. They will play along with a superficial trendy girl to get her into bed but when they see the real thing, they will rise to the occasion. There are two things men feel about the girl they want to be with:

153
1.) They'd be proud to be with her in public because of the way she carries herself not because of her clothes and make-up. 2.) They want her to have their children. I was brought up around free people living their own lives being themselves. The greatest rule in our unspoken code was be real, don't be fake because we won't buy it and you will just end up looking like a fool when you try to be somebody you're not. Be the way God created you. The cosmetic, clothing, jewelry and entertainment industries have a vested interest in putting forth a phony illusion of glamour so a lot of stupid girls can think it's cool and trendy and try to imitate it by spending their hard-earned money and time trying to develop this aura about themselves but it's all a lie. There's no such thing as glamour or if there is, it's a synonym for being fake and frivolous in an effort to look cool and fashionable but it's an oxymoron because when you're consciously trying to be like this, you look like an idiot for being that shallow that you devote that much energy to your look when the world is so much more substantial than this. There are kids starving somewhere and you’re worried about trying to look

154
cool. There are no special people around living in some special zone of glamour where they're pouting, posing and sashaying around looking and feeling more special and cooler than the rest of the population. Special feelings come from hard inspired effort working at being who you really are. This gives you feelings of transcendence, not trying to be trendy in a superficial way. This is how enlightened people think. This is what being real is all about. Real people don't buy into the lie of a glamour world. If you own more than six pair of shoes, you're a lost soul. Not that I'm a great catch or anything, my life is irrelevant to this book. I'm trying to tell you the way it really works from a man's point of view which a lot of girls seem to miss based on how many I see with that tacky superficial exterior. The less make-up you put on your face, the less blatant jewelry you wear, the less expensive fashionable clothes you wear in favor of simple, nice ones and the closer your hair color is to the color you were born with, the more real and natural you will be which means the more likely you will meet a worthy guy of character who will appreciate you as you really are.

155
You can be a lady, dress nice, put a bit of make-up on, some subtle ear-rings, just don't cross that line into the frivolous, trashy, sleazy, teen-queen, pop star, bubbly cosmetics commercial vibe. It's so fake that it's disgusting not beautiful. It's a business where the cosmetics and clothing industries are blatantly insulting you by implying that you're a onedimensional airhead whose only worth is that superficial outer wrapping.

Betty Page: Natural Beauty, Every Man's Dream

Beauty without vanity is every man’s dream but rare in a pop culture society where vain people are put on pedestals as with models, pop stars, TV actors and movie stars then we, the pleebes, are told that these are the advanced, cool, fascinating people on the planet and we must worship them and aspire to be like them. During the fifties, Betty Page was a model who would pose at so-called camera clubs where men would go to allegedly take pictures of women models to learn the art of photography but it was really all about sexual pictures which is why so many of her pictures have survived and

156
are now memorialized in several books. She became the pin-up queen of what were the forerunner of modern day porno magazines, pin-up magazines with partial nudity such as Eyeful, Tab, Dare, Girls & Gags, Sunbathing, Wink, Bold, Vue, Tease and Movie Star News, some of the images of which are still available through companies specializing in early porn. She was in Playboy in January, 1956. There are books out there full of photos glorifying Betty Page, even a Cd-Rom with a bunch of her photos and clips from her movie Teasorama. She had almost a cult following as evident by a TV show about her E! Network did on their True Hollywood Story series. Some politicians wanting to get re-elected started hearings against pornography in 1955 which destroyed Betty's and her photographer's career, Irving Klaw. Many men who were boys then and had their first erotic experiences thinking about her are now buying her pinups all over again. Of course, their version of porn back then is considered just partial nudity shots today. Karen Essex wrote a biography about Ms. Page. The modern day comic book The Rocketeer was inspired by Bettie Page and has her in it as a major character.

157
Artists have painted pictures of her from photos which are out there somewhere. There have been songs written in homage to her because of her combination naughtiness-niceness-free spiritedness-wholesomeness-joy and the un-selfconscious, free natural look about her which is almost unknown these days which is why so many men are still attracted to her, because she represents a truly beautiful natural woman with a free, fun, uncomplicated manner about herself. It’s the natural purity thing. It’s rare to be pure but fun and open to sexuality because it’s nature. The problem these days is that every girl claims to be like this but a vast majority of them are brainwashed clones, living by the pop culture, frivolous women's magazines, corporate beauty product ideology with very few girls being who they really are away from all that stuff. If you don't believe me, see how many girls wanna be models or actresses and how many go to boy band concerts thinking it's the greatest thing since the Crucifixion of the Enlightened Master. If you take a good look at Betty's body, she looks buxom, her legs are big, she has some fat on her and her tits are kinda small but it doesn't matter, she has a kind

158
of primal vivaciousness and healthy, natural (as opposed to fake bubbly-preppy-valley girl choreographed) love of life to her that men are attracted to. If you're a woman and wanna be sexy in a natural wholesome way, take a lesson from Betty Page. Don't color your hair and pile on the make-up, just take care of your health and be natural, curious about life and vivacious.

Modesty: A Lost Virtue?

How can you love someone else or care for them when you’re always concerned with your look? TV show Kept Where is the girl being herself, doing her own thing away from the brainwash of frivolous women’s magazines? A modest wife has endless charm; it is a quality too precious to measure. Song of Solomon 26:15 Girls should be quiet and modest. Jane Austen, character Mary

159
Crawford in Mansfield Park, 1814 When men are looking for true love, they're looking for a humble kind of beauty with a feminine softness not the loud, so-called outgoing adventurous type who's a pop culture clone trying to imitate what she sees on TV portraying the so-called cool babe, somebody loud, what they call bubbly with that frivolous, advanced vibe seemingly so sure of herself which is all a cover to the real person if, in fact, there is a real person underneath all those layers of cultural brainwash. Just look at the covers of frivolous women's magazines for that pouty, fashionable look then know that any girl you come across that has that cosmetic, trend-setting look might be good for a season or a fling because she's dumb and naïve trying to act cool which makes for relatively easy pickings but as a lifetime partner, forget it. As a kid growing up in a moderately conservative town in the sixties, good girls were the ones who dressed nicely but not flamboyantly and stayed virgins until marriage. Any girl who made porno movies was considered the lowliest in society but in today's world, if you don't dress

160
like the latest teen pop star striking a pose on the cover of any frivolous woman's magazine with that stupid, seductive look on your face and if you're a virgin, you're considered uncool not to mention that any girl who made a porno film as recently as ten years ago was ashamed that she sold her dignity for a bit of money and didn't want anyone to know about it as opposed to today where they're lined up by the thousands to make them and openly promote themselves on TV, the internet and at adult industry conventions. There is a loss of innocence in modern society with the images portraying a young cool girl and even older ones as vampy sleazy types supposedly with an open mind who wear lots of make-up, diet themselves to extreme thinness and wear the tightest, latest fashions while they get cosmetic surgery to augment their breasts and color their hair with those skanky roots showing through. The business machine of the so-called beauty industries have implanted this mindset into society brainwashing many women into thinking it's the cool, happening, in vogue image of what they should be just like many are brainwashed to imitate a barbie doll so what we got is a lot of women imitating this fake cool vain image which other girls see so they think it must be cool then they imitate it and pretty soon you gotta bunch of emptyheaded clones running around with those skanky roots

161
showing through acting like some frivolous vamp in a TV commercial and guys start to wonder if there are any real women of substance left out there with minds of their own not brainwashed by all this external crap. True beauty is in the soul. It's got nothing to do with outer wrapping except that if you do it, it shows you're trying to change yourself via superficial means which means you don't have a beautiful soul because if you did, you'd accept yourself as is, concern yourself with things that matter and wouldn't bother with these superficial things. Modesty doesn't mean plainness or ugliness. It means focussing on your natural beauty as a human being rather than focussing on all that outer crap out there like make-up, jewelry, fashions, etc. Modesty to me means a girl who has common sense, who is sensible, someone who thinks something like me which is a typical man. I’m concerned with function, practicality, how to better my life and maybe even help the world. I have a general disdain for frivolous, pop culture things in light of all the problems and need in the world. If I was looking for a wife, I would need a girl with a soul like this, someone who was aware of what was

162
really going on in the world, someone who is trying to better herself everyday both for her and for the world in general. I have contempt for people who live in little bubbles of pop culture entertainment and frivolous women's magazines and don’t seem to realize all the pain, suffering and need there is out there while they own over 300 pair of shoes which I’ve encountered twice in my life, women who actually own more than 300 pair of shoes and maybe 50 or more purses to go along with it. How could I ever love somebody that vain and frivolous? The Moslems take it too far insisting that women be subservient to men and cover everything up except for their eyes in public but there should be a middle ground that goes between the sexual revolution of the sixties and the dearth of sexuality right after the Aids scare, somewhere on the character scale between a nun and a painted-up Jezebel. I can't stand self-centered bitches flaunting themselves thinking they're all that. I wouldn't waste my time, even for the possibility of sex. For casual sex, I'd rather find an unpretensious fun girl who likes to catch a buzz and have a good time rather than one of these high and mighty pop culture trendy types who thinks she deserves

163
to be taken care of forever by some rich guy because she thinks she's way worth it, all that and a bag o’ chips. Some people say anorexia, self-mutilation and all those other things are the result of a girl's confusion about her sexuality; she hates herself because she's not sexy enough as defined by the culture then on the other hand, she feels guilty and ashamed for cheapening herself trying to act sexy so she's a mess turning to selfdestructive behaviors to deal with it. Society wants you to be a vamp and a lady all at the same time judging from all the mixed signals we constantly get all across the board from all different sectors. People who make a living from sex like the ones who write magazines or the ones who make TV shows using an open sexual atmosphere generally put out the attitude that modest people are sexually repressed, that they really want sex but are holding themselves back whereas the truth is that it's a free society where anything goes. If you choose to be modest, you don't have to be made to feel guilty and prudish by a liberal media which uses sex as its bread and butter to sell itself. And they got all these phony experts on TV, supposedly

164
liberal sex educators going into the schools treating private subjects as if they were the most casual things in the world then we wonder why kids go off doing all kinds of sexual things like having babies too young, date rape, sexual harassment, fondling unwilling volunteers in public, etc. It's because they got these permissive attitudes from certain elements of the mainstream culture. Modesty in women is a virtue. It's not repressing sex in response to unhealthy feelings of guilt or shame, it's having a sense of decency and an implicit inner standard as to what's comfortable and dignified around other people. It's not wearing a dress with the cleavage hanging out to try to attract attention to yourself or saying inappropriate lewd things in public. It's not wearing shorts such that you have to constantly pull down because they're hugging up to the cheeks as I've seen with girls at the gym. How can you work out when you're self-conscious of that all the time? I saw some guy kick some girls out of his restaurant because they were wearing thongs which might be sexy but they belong in a secluded place among mature

165
people not out in public in a family area. There's such a thing as going too far with abandoning standards of decency. I thought people find it uncomfortable when their clothing gets stuck up the cracks of their butt but the brainwashing effect of society has thongs as a fashion statement regardless of how uncomfortable. Modesty is being pleasant, non-controversial, not attracting excessive sexual attention to yourself by wearing overly tight, skimpy clothes. It’s not about inappropriate seductive looks or sexy talk with people you don't know very well that goes too far. Men, being the sexual creatures they are, will be attracted to sexy vampy girls for their look to appease their sexual desires but at the end of the day when all is said and done, they will reject these vain outer focussed glamor girls and look for a true companion who will be there when the glitter wears off, somebody of substance who they can talk to, bring home to show their mother and be with on a real level. They will want the stupid brainwashed girl preoccupied with the outer look and "cool" image for sex but not for marriage material.

166
As far as I know, every major religion has rules about women being modest and the school does a pretty good job of teaching women to be nice, humble people but the media more than makes up for it with the ripple effect of peer pressure taking hold such that a lot of young girls converge to the image put forth by the entertainment industry, music videos and frivolous women's magazines, destroying whatever innocence and wholesome values there may be inside of them. And then we got some show on the women’s network about make-overs, where they go in, color a girl's hair, give her a new hairstyle, put some make-up on her, give her a new dress and she says she feels so beautiful, like a real woman when the truth is that she's still the same her, absolutely nothing has changed in her soul. It's a big lie. I'm not pro-prude nor pro-vamp. There's a middle of the road approach. Some people say you should ask yourself if your father or your God would approve before you do something. I say you have an implicit standard of decency within yourself. Sometimes for curiosity sake, you cross the line to experiment with life but you know inherently whether something is right or wrong. Sex in private between two lovers may be fine but it

167
generally doesn't feel right in a group setting as with an orgy. I'm sure the people making porno movies don't feel right inside while they're going at it in front of the camera. It’s just that they sold their souls for the money. Live by the standard you feel inside. You know when you're doing something that's not really right. As a hedonist with a conservative upbringing, I believe in both facets of life, to have my pleasure in a free discreet way with people I'm comfortable with but don't flaunt myself acting like trailer trash in public. We're all good and bad, puriticanical and slutty at different times in our lives. I’m a hedonist but to see me out in public, you’d never know. I never betray myself by dressing inappropriately or acting inappropriately. Regardless of what I think in my head or do in private, discreet settings, when I go out in public, I’m always a noncontroversial, neutral face because I feel that I have no right to impose my values on anyone else nor make them feel uncomfortable by my dress or demeanor. People think because I’ve written a sex book that reads downright slutty in parts that I must look like some degenerate pervert but I look like I could fit in anywhere. I never bring attention to myself by trying to act extra sexy or cool out in public.

168
Most of us want sexual fun with good looking frivolous people for awhile but want true love with someone we can relate to so if you act vampy and all, you will attract men who will like your boobs and your sexy outer vibe but when you peel it all away, you got an ordinary human being just like everyone else and if you've got nothing to offer but that outer sexy vibe, not true warmth, substance and sincerity, forget it. Smart, on-the-level guys generally won't stay with an empty-headed sexy vamp constantly worried about her sexy look. Maybe a dumb superficial guy will but a real guy looking for somebody real won't. From a cultural point of view, modesty puts an invisible line between men and women as to what's acceptable. If you've got a bunch of girls sashaying around like vamps, men presume they're as horny as they are and the game is sex with no strings attached but if a girl acts proper, respectful and a little bit distant, it puts some space there saying she has virtue, she’s not easy and guys will back off before they think about moving in for what we might call a sexy "Hey babe" come-on, aggressive flirting, sexual harassment or date rape. Modesty is necessary in order for romance to flourish. If

169
there's no modesty, it's just straight out sex with no pangs of beauty or love there. Men will only respect girls who have this quality. They will be sexually attracted to the pop culture crowd but won't necessarily respect them. Modesty is announcing to the world that you're saving it for a special someone. If you're acting cool in a sexy phony way, you're basically saying with non-verbal cues that you're a liberated bad-ass chick so cool that nothing phases you, you can be just as cavalier about sex as any guy and will often end up doing things to embarrass yourself not inherent to the real you to protect this outer façade of sexy coolness you got from Jenny, Carmen, Brittany and all those other lost souls parading themselves in the media for the money and the transient fame. Modesty is showing other people you respect them enough to respect yourself by not flaunting yourself all over the place thus making them feel comfortable to be with you. Modesty is girlishness in a woman, boyishness in a man. The older you get, generally the more you lose it to become jaded, cynical, secular up until about 40 then

170
I've noticed a lot of the "I'm all that" chicks from youth start to get a bit more humble about themselves because they know they ain't the cock of the walk anymore. The hardness of the world takes its toll on almost everybody, making us a bunch of phony brainwashed people trying to act cool, beautiful and successful at the expense of everything else. Books about women's sexual ethics are at #306.7082 or HQ46 at the library. There’s a book around by Wendy Shalit who I saw on the TV show The Sex Files (exn.ca), called A Return to Modesty. modestynow.evangelizers.com/page3.html

Daddy’s Girl

A daddy's girl is the type of girl I talked about elsewhere, protected all her life with no scope of reality in the real world. Her father loves her which is normal but he showers her with so many things and is so overprotective of her that she grows up overdependent on him, sheltered from the real world such that she never

171
got her feet wet, never worked for anything, was spoiled all her life, never broke a real sweat in an attempt to achieve something of substance. Cheerleading practice doesn't count because it adds nothing significantly important to the progress of the world so as such, she's a limited human being living in a fantasyland and believes in all those fairy tales about some magical, mystical Prince Charming who she's gonna meet at college. She will leave the sorority house and move right into his mansion somewhere in the suburbs so it will be daddy's house, sorority house and mansion in the suburbs with no period of living on her own, trying to make her own way in the world to discover who she is away from all that stuff. Of course, this is the fantasy but it rarely works in the real world because most guys are normal human beings working hard for a living and can't measure up to daddy's girl's high expectations so she's doomed to never finding a guy that measures up to her father and when she does eventually find a guy, she thinks she's higher and mightier than him on the status scale so she uses him and makes excessive demands expecting everything to be fulfilled because she's such a special girl just like her father fulfilled all the special wishes of his special little

172
girl. If you're a daddy's girl, if you wanna get real, you have to get into the real world, get humble, work your way through college, drive a bike for awhile instead of the sportscar daddy bought you, move out of the sorority house into your own place and get rid of that fashion mindset then you might get real enough to attract a real guy. You have to get over your dependence on your father and strike out on your own to live your own life. When I was a teacher at college, I came across a lot of these daddy's girls who seemed like nice enough people on the surface but the impression I got of them was that they were superficial girls with no true tested character who wanted to meet an upstanding successful young man in college who would take care of them so they could continue on in the lifestyle they knew with daddy. They weren't very ambitious for themselves. They just looked good and stylish and thought that their looks would be enough for them to breeze through life, find them a good husband who would take care of them. This is not reality and not the way a real human being lives, even if they have enough money to be on easy street because the only truly honorable feelings anybody gets within themselves is when they do something really

173
tough and worthy that inspires and challenges them and if you help others in the process, you get a double dose of self-respect from the process. Be your own person. Get over your dependence on your father, set out to live your own life, find your own mind, earn your own money and be successful on your own without help or dependence on your daddy. If you can do all that without getting jaded to the "I am woman" feminist philosophy and still maintain an easy way about yourself, you should attract some bonafide, rock solid, upstanding guys.

Chapter 7. Grooming & Beauty

Grooming, The Look, Fashion Sense

I wanna look good naked. The movie American Beauty Women don't like the grunge/ Grizzly Adams, backwoods look. They like a clean look, clean-shaven, short hair or long and neat not wild and unkempt. They like men who wear generic nice middle class clothes not overly into the GQ mentality nor at the other extreme of the redneck, trailer trash hillbilly ilk wearing the same jeans, t-shirt and baseball hat for a year or two. There are grooming books at #646.75 at the library for both men and women. I'm obsessed with cleanliness and grooming in a relationship for two major reasons. Firstly, the extent to which an individual keeps clean and makes an attempt to wear neat, nice clothes reflects their respect for their partner. Neat dressers have self-respect, sloppy dressers don't care how they present themselves to the world so they're

175
worth about as much as they care about dressing neatly. Secondly, the simplest things are always the truest. When a prospective suitor looks at you, all they've got is your looks, your clothing and how neat and nice you are. You can't change your looks but you can always clean yourself and wear nice clothes, clean your teeth, shave, smell nice and the list goes on. Girls are very observant. They check all guys out for the cleanliness factor right away and most guys do it too. I always notice if a girl's a bit frumpy, wearing three day old socks and overall, isn't as fresh as she could be. Despite all that's been written trying to say that body and looks don't mean as much as what's in the heart, I've read enough erotic literature written by women to know that virtually all fantasize about muscular men with tight butts. I've read that over and over again in so many different sources that I accept it as fact. Women like clean, neat, long, flowing hair on a man too. Think as though you're still single and looking. Don't wear that frumpy old housecoat when he comes home from work. Take a shower. Put a nice dress on. When you get home from work, don't sit down and watch TV in your work clothes. Take a shower.

176
Change into fresh clothes for her. If you go to see her after work, take a shower first. Although I'm not big on all that deodorant spray crap, start experimenting with some colognes to please her. Smell has a lot to do with romance as discussed elsewhere in this book. When you wear cologne, you're letting off a pleasant scent and at the very least, you're showing her that you care enough about her to add that extra touch. Regardless of all the warnings about UV radiation, a bronze suntan is now and always will be a sign of vitality and desirability on both a man and a woman. It's just the way it is. It's a symbol of outdoor health. Sunshine strengthens the immune system. Consider some cosmetic teeth cleaning process like hydrogen peroxide, laser or go all out with caps (porcelain veneer) which are expensive. Fashion or so-called style are just figments in the imaginations of frivolous people with nothing real going on in their lives so it's all bull. You can buy nice clothes at any department store. Personally, I go for girls who wear neutral type, nice clothes. I don't go for sleazy, trashy or at the other

177
extreme, the high fashion model type who dresses out of vanity to impress people. It's a big turn off to me. I always like white but never could go for red or yellow. These colors just don't cut it for clothes. Plaid's a drag too. I stick basically with blue and brown. Wear any colors you want but don't go too bright. Poorly fitting clothes either way is always a drag. Material plays a role. Velour and silk just ain't cool unless you're a disco duck or an American jive turkey pimp. Synthetics like polyester make you glow. Get rid of them. No two toned shoes. The golden rule is to look nice but never attract attention to yourself with just your clothes. The clothing can be used to accentuate your nice body but don't go overboard on the vanity look. You will look like a Christmas tree and everyone will be looking at you saying to themselves how vain and stupid you are. Most men don't mind glasses on a woman unless horn rimmed. Men are ambivalent about long nails, some like them, some don't. The ones that do don't like them too long. Men like perfume but not too much. Men want their partner to be covered up in public but like to see other women showing some cleavage or tight clothes showing the breasts.

178
Men don't like baggy clothes on a woman, long skirts, baggy pants, pleated pants, men's clothes, etc. They don't like it when women dress too trendy, like a China doll about to break, wear clothes that are too tight, hippie style and, of course, dirty. Ask each other what you like each other to wear. There's a difference between aging and getting lazy on your looks. People are mature enough to accept aging as a natural part of life. Personality is the #1 characteristic of a long lasting relationship. Men claim that the aging of women is not important. Most men want a well proportioned, firm body not necessarily a big breasted or extremely slim woman. They also don't particularly go for taller women as the modelling industry would like us to believe. Most men want women with a little bit of meat on their frames. In a relationship, the face is the most important of a woman's features to a man followed by bust, legs and butt. Men like a moderate amount of make-up on a woman but not excessive like war paint. Men want women to dress sexy and fashionable in a manner comfortable to them. Simplicity, appropriateness and good fit are the most important

179
features of clothing that attracts a man. All affectations are frivolous. You don't have to advertise anything to the world but the plain and simple you. Don't wear silly, faddish things. Unless you're a real cowboy, don't wear a cowboy hat or cowboy gear. Don't wear lapel pins with your snotty affiliations on them. Don't wear anything with your initials monogrammed on it. The preppy look for men and women is definitely out according to a survey I read which found it the least popular style of dress. There seems to be a backlash against the fake cosmetic thing, things like coloring the hair, colored contact lenses, painted nails, fake nails, painted toenails, fake boobs that are way too big, cosmetic surgery and the list goes on. Some guy on the Discovery Channel called an evolutionary psychologist said the reason high heels are sexy is not in the shoes themselves but because they lift the ass up simulating the lordosis position, aka the ready to get fucked from behind position. The sashaying model walk tricks men into thinking the

180
girl has curvier hips. Women expend an awful lot of effort on these things but the question is whether guys go for it. The woman would say she's doing it for herself. In any case, a lot of men really don't go for it. They want the natural, real thing. Think twice before you get too fake. Most girls don't like facial hair on a man. Men hate too much make-up on a woman. Women hate the disco look where the guy leaves five buttons open on his chest and wears a gold medal. Women don't like men with too much jewelry on or manicured nails. Women do not like it when a guy crosses his legs and his socks are short enough that skin shows through. Wear longer socks. Women don't like it when men are always adjusting their waistbands on their pants. If you've got a nice body, wear jockey shorts and sleeveless muscle undershirts. Everyone else wear plain boxers and sleeved t-shirts. No cute stuff on the boxers.

181
Headbands went out with the hippies. Leather is cool if you wanna attract a biker. Women hate it when guys use gimmicks like comb overs to try to hide baldness. Guys who wear baseball hats are not considered romantic types by women in general. General turn-offs are: Bad body odor. Overweight. Let yourself go. Blemished skin. No make-up, a little bit is better. Chipped nail polish. Matted hair. Sweatpants, sweatshirt. Hairy armpits. Shapeless clothes, generic frocks. Skanky underwear. Too big hair. Too much jewelry. Too much perfume. Too much make-up. Horn-rimmed and other nerdy glasses.

182
Long fingernails. Bad breath. Graying hair. Inappropriate fashions (40 year old trying to look like 18 year old slut) Poor fashion sense. Whiny, high pitched voice. Try #646.75 at the library.

Chapter 8. Sweat & Body Odor

Excessive Sweating/ Hyperhidrosis

Some medical conditions like endocrine disorders, overactive thyroid and cancer cause excessive sweating. You can get prescription antiperspirants. Some doctors treat it with botox injections which are expensive and temporary. Botox blocks the release of a chemical neurotransmitter acetylcholine that stimulate the sweat glands. A sympathectonomy is the surgival severance of the nerves that stimulate the problem sweat glands. Hyperhidrosis is a condition of excessive sweating caused by overactive sweat glands which are part of the sympathetic nervous system. There are two kinds of sweat: 1.) Normal sweat produced by the eccrine glands in the skin.

200
2.) Smelly sweat produced by the apocrine glands in the genital area and underarms. Gustatory sweating is sweating as the result of eating spicy foods. sweathelp.org rwjuh.edu/medical_services/hyperhidrosis_center.html, hyperhidrosis treatment, cure excessive sweating curesweatypalms.com/hyperhidrosis.shtml articlecity.com/articles/health/article_4312.shtml articlecity.com/articles/health/article_691.shtml botonics.co.uk/beauty-treatments/excessive-sweating-hy perhidrosis botox.com/site/consumers/approved_uses/hyperhidrosis. asp wrongdiagnosis.com/symptom/occasional-sweating.htm botox-debate.com/medical-uses.php botox-for-excessive-sweating.harmonia.waw.pl botoxseveresweating.com curesweatypalms.com curesweatypalms.com/sweaty_palms.htm drkoop.com/ency/408/003218.html drugs.com/enc/sweating.html dryandcool.com, medical group in houston, treatment uses botox. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/sweating_sickness

Sweaty Feet/ Smelly Feet/ Podobromhidrosis

Smelly feet are sometimes the result of specific problems with footwear and socks but many of us sweat a lot in the feet and have fungus infections. There are also some medical problems like anemia that contribute to stinky feet. If your feet constantly sweat as they do naturally, there’s nothing much you can do but clean them daily and clean the insides of your foot wear at least once a week. They say go to a doctor but the doctor doesn’t have magic knowledge. Smelly feet are natural. That’s just the way it is. My feet always sweat. Even the sneakers I wear around the house smell even though I’ve never done any strenuous activities in them. Make a pot of tea then soak your feet in it. Soak your feet in warm oatmeal.

Body Odor Info

Perspiration is not the the cause of body odor. Perspiration by itself is basically odorless. Body odor comes from foul things inside your body that come out through the pores and bacteria and stuff on your skin. Shower daily. Avoid spicy foods. Besides soap, wash/ soak with baking soda, corn starch, vinegar, jello and salt. Wash with turnip and tomato juice.

208
Drink wheatgrass juice (powdered or fresh). The chlorophyll in it reduces body odor. Take zinc tablets. Eat less meat.

Chapter 9. Hair Care Info

Healthy Hair Info

Hair is made up of keratin, a tough, fibrous protein. Each hair shaft has a spongy core (medulla), a surrounding layer of thin fibers (cortex) and a thin covering of overlapping cells (cuticle). While a hair is growing, the hair root is surrounded by live tissue called a bulb which supplies keratin to the hair. Cells at the base of the hair follicle produce melanin which determines your hair color. There is a nutritional movement that promotes healthy hair and minimization of hair loss by eating the right foods. The major food product they promote is omega 3 essential fatty acids. Refer to the article Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids in this book. They recommend a healthy diet of fresh, unprocessed foods, green vegetables, grains and water. Eat foods high in biotin like brewer's yeast, egg yolks, liver, brown rice, bulgur, green peas, lentils, oats, soybeans, sunflower seeds, and walnuts.

213
Prematurely graying hair is thought to be caused by a lack of the amino acid phenylalanine which helps melanin which is the hair color pigment. Avoid processed foods and artificial sweeteners. Avoid stress. Try to relax. Use natural hair-care products as opposed to haircare products with chemicals in them. Do not use electric hair dryers or curling irons. Let your hair dry naturally. Chlorinated water is not good on the hair. For Female Hair Loss, use what amounts to natural, herbal hormone replacement products to simulate estrogen in your system and to help stimulate the adrenal glands to produce it. Some of these substances are black cohosh, chamomile, licorice, motherwort, skullcap, valerian root and wild yam root. Some vitamins and minerals that help with hair growth and conditioning are: Biotin

214
Vitamin B complex Vitamin C Vitamin E Zinc Some substances that are good for the hair and help with hair loss mostly because they help stimulate circulation are as follows: Aloe Vera Green Tea. Aloe Vera. Alpha Hydroxy. Bilberry. Biotin Birch oil, added to shampoo. Cayenne. Cedarwood (Cedrus atlantica) Emu oil Ginger. Ginkgo. Ginseng. Gotu Kola. Hawthorn. Hops, hair conditioner. Horsetail (Equisetum Arvense). Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) Lemongrass. Licorice extract

215
Magnesium Methylsulfonylmethane/ MSM Nettles, Nettle root, nettle root extract. Propolis, a sticky substance gathered by bees. Pumpkin seed oil extract Queen of the Meadow oil, added to shampoo. Red clover, prevents buildup of testosterone in the scalp. Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) Sage. Saw Palmetto. Thyme (Thymus vulgaris) Vitamin C. Wild Cherry Bark, hair conditioner. Zinc Massage some Rosemary and olive oil into your scalp. Wash your hair with vinegar, egg yolks and egg whites. If you have dry hair, run mayonnaise through it, let it sit for awhile then rinse it out and shampoo your hair. Rub lemon into your scalp. Rinse your hair with vinegar.

Chapter 10. Hair Problems

Dandruff/ Seborrheic Dermatitis/ Seborrhea

Dandruff is simply the old skin we shed on the top of our heads as new skin grows underneath it so it’s really a skin problem not a hair problem. Dandruff is not usually a problem unless a person sheds large amounts of skin. This could be caused by oily skin which causes bacteria or psoriasis which can cause scaly patches on the skin which lead to dandruff. Dandruff is not contagious. It's aggravated by scratching which leads to a bacterial infection. Dandruff, cradle cap and the medical term Seborrhea are all basically the same thing. Hormones stimulate the oil glands in the skin in the scalp area causing a feeling of oiliness in the scalp and the hair as well as a flaking of the skin in the scalp area. Babies get dandruff because they take in their mothers’ hormones through the process of breastfeeding. Teenagers get it because they are starting to secrete adult hormones at this time namely testosterone, estrogen and

235
progesterone. Seborrhea is a relatively harmless condition but it could make the skin more open to a bacteria or a yeast infection. Some people with seborrhea have a flaking of the facial skin as well. The best treatments are dandruff shampoos which contain either Zinc Pyrithione or Selenium Sulfide. Tar based shampoos are alright but they smell bad and could stain light colored hair. Over the counter Hydrocortisone Scalp Solutions can be used in addition to the shampoos. There are many over-the-counter anti-dandruff shampoos on the market as well as some prescription ones that contain selenium sulfide such as Selsun and Selsun Blue. If the flaking is especially thick, you can get a soft brush to scrape your scalp. The condition can’t be cured by current medical technology, only managed and controlled somewhat. If you have it, you have to keep using anti-dandruff shampoo. If you have a severe case of seborrhea, the doctor might

Hair Loss Info

Besides aging and too much testosterone in your system, hair loss can be caused by too little protein in the diet, thyroid disorder, medication, chemotherapy and hairstyles that tie the hair together like ponytails or braids. Serious hair loss is characterized by abnormalities in the scalp skin or the hairs themselves. Ringworm is a fungus that infects the hairs and damages them. Dermatologists and other doctors examine the hair and scalp areas to try to determine the nature of the problem. If ringworm is diagnosed, treatment requires the use of an oral drug like griseofulvin to kill the fungus. A strand of hair grows continually for up to six years, then rests for three months before falling out naturally. Shedding 50 to 100 hairs each day is normal. Each shed hair is replaced by a new hair that begins to grow out of the same follicle. Your hair grows about a half inch every month. As you age, your rate of hair growth slows.

241
There are lots of medical/ health rerasons for hair loss: Certain prescription medications Chemotherapy Fever Iron deficiency Large doses of vitamin A Malnutrition Overactive or underactive thyroid gland Serious infection Weak immune system Books are at #616.546 at the library.

Hair Replacement Info

Hair replacement treatment is big business. There is no surefire way to beat baldness but there are basically four options: Surgical Attachment. This is the most expensive method with three different options; 1.) Flap Surgery. Rotating a part of the scalp where there's hair to a part where's there's no hair. If it

242
doesn't take, there will be ugly scars. They basically take pieces of skin with hair, cut them up into small pieces then put them onto bald spots like little plugs. They stitch up the area they took the skin from. 2.) Transplant Surgery is simply grafting hair roots from the sides and back of the head to surgically implant over the bald spot. 3.) Scalp Reduction is where a part of the scalp skin is cut away and the rest of the skin pulled in tighter. This is often done with Tissue Expanders which are balloon like implants put into the scalp where the most hair is in order to expand this area of hairy skin. It takes several months for the hair to grow. If you’re mostly bald, it will take several sessions to do the complete job. There is a procedure started in France which involves attaching hundreds of tiny hair anchors under the scalp. Wear a wig, toupee, hairpieces or even spray-on hair. You can get a wig or toupee either woven in or glued onto your head and go in for adjusting every six weeks or so.

243
A nonprescription medication called minoxidil is somewhat effective for regrowing lost hair if you use it for at least four months. Minoxidil is not effective for treating hair loss caused by anything other than hereditary male pattern baldness. If you stop using it, the hair loss will begin again. Finasteride, a pill, is effective against male pattern baldness. You need to take finasteride every day for at least 6 months before seeing any results. Finasteride and minoxidil are not effective for replacing lost hair in a receding hairline. Women who could become pregnant must not use finasteride because it has been shown to cause birth defects. Rogaine and other so-called hair replacement lotions are mostly useless. The FDA has approved a prescription drug called Propecia which is a higher dosage of the prostate drug Proscar/ Finasteride. You have to have active hair follicles in order or it to be effective. Beware of side effects especially in women. Playboy Magazine (playboy.com) and Men’s Health

244
(menshealth.com) contain ads for hair replacement techniques. Sea vegetables contain a lot of Iodine which regulates the thyroid which is linked to hair growth. Rub garlic in the area of thinning hair. Massage the scalp with a mixture of honey and onion juice. Rub sesame oil, olive oil, garlic oil and/ or oil of rosemary on the scalp. One theory says if you can stand on your head or get your head lower than the rest of the body for a few minutes a day, the blood will go the head and help regrow hair follicles. Books about hair loss are at #616.546 or RL155 at the library.

Alopecia Areata Info

Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disease whereby antibodies damage small, localized patches of hair.

245
It is not the same as baldness. Usually the hair comes back within a year or two but half of all patients will have a similar loss within the next several years and the cycle will be repeated. Corticosteroid injections (steroids) sometimes help the hair grow back faster.
