Factoids on avoiding Frumpiness
Ok come on girls, lets be someone putting up another profile here....So far we've got a bunch of slackers onboard.....Hey, you accept an invite from the gobhole girl, you better be ready to produce or I'll hound you like the dawg I am. The hot Dawg that is......
Here's a new concept. I've purchased myself some teeny bopper jeans. In a previous post,
scottsdale girl said low rise jeans were the work of the devil and I laughed loudly over that, I tend to agree. But ladies, I have to tell you....High wasted jeans are the work of Betsy freakin Ross. You have to find a happy medium.
In the day we live in, this is nearly impossible. I'll tell you first hand I hate shopping for jeans. They either ride too high, too low, too big at the waste, while squeezing your thighs too hard, or you can't even get in them to begin with. The sizes have shrunk down to where a person who once wore a 5 has now graduated to an 11.
Ever noticed on the clearance racks, what sizes are left? That's right. ZERO and ONE. DUH, NO ONE WEARS THOSE EXCEPT STARVED GIRAFFES.
IDIOTS.
Clothing designers are idiots. Those Dove girls need to come out with a clothing line for real women.
Which brings me to my next subject. Whilst on the prowl for interesting fodder for factoids here, I picked up a Vogue magazine. I looked through that thing and then I threw it. Through and threw. What a piece of TRASH. I should have just taken my 4 bucks, torn it up and thrown it in the garbage outside the store.
Completely lacking in substance, had absolutely nothing interesting to say, and full to the brim with ad's from clothing, perfume, and cosmetics designers idea of what a fab woman looks like. A starved giraffe. It was page 103 before they even had words. Just because a magazine is thick doesn't mean it's good.
If I woulda had a match handy I would have burned that collection of paper beetch and thrown it in their face. Don't ever waste your money on that swanky tripe....Moving on.
Martha Stewart, where is your clothing line? Just kidding!!!! Shades of demure green and gold...Trimmed in lace and brokade....ick
Here it is girls. Something i've never done before, which is to take a picture of my rear.... My butt, plumply stuffed into teeny jeans. Didn't even try them on first. I think I'm beginning to get an idea of what to get that fits me. So it is possible, don't give up. Just in case you're wondering, I'm still working on not thinking it looks fat.....this is tough.
Anyone else have the gall to post their butt? or their FACE for that matter?????

Tummies
Ok ladies, I read this in glamour magazine, October 2006, by Jake; glamour.com/Jake. What he said is that basically men like a few flaws in their women. For example:
some crooked teeth,
a butt dimple,
hairy parts, because sleeping with a fully waxed woman is like sleeping with a store mannequin,
scars,
boobs of all types, and last but not least men on the whole actually prefer a little bit of a tummy. So all of you girls who have been stressing about having Dunlap Disease. (I dun lapped over) you can relax a tad. I have a little Dunlap. I was stressed about it and now that I've read that, I'm not stressed anymore. Forget those 100 crunchers I do every night. ????? Men like cushy and soft. Not hard and flat. For the most part that is. I'm sure there are still one or two jerks out there who think they don't want any jelly bellies, but they can go sleep with a 2x4 if that's the case. Cause us warm blooded women are curvy.
The article also said men like the women who are not so obvious, the demure ones who can be a little quirky or mysterious.
There you have it. I have just destroyed myth number one, right here on this blog. TIGHT TUMMIES BE GONE.
From now on, you need to stop judging yourself based one what YOU think, and concern yourself with what the majority of men find attractive. That is if you even care. Otherwise just get comfy in your own skin and do whatever floats your boat. We will continue to explore and bust some more myths as I get time.
KEEP POSTING YOUR PICTURES PLEASE

hello there....
This feels a little like a personal add but here goes...
First of all I chose this photo because of my luscious lips - LOL! I think I was in the middle of talking when the BF shot the photo. Anyways I digress...I am 28 years old and starting to feel the pressure to "settle down" - you know kids, house, picket fence, dog etc. - I'd like those things but I still feel like a kid!
My favourite assets are my eyes, feet and tattoos. The eyes are expressive, the feet are cute (but alas sometimes stinky! ha!) and the tattoos? well the tattoos let me talk without saying a word. My least favourite asset is the paunch that's starting to develope around the middle. I don't mind that I have some cellulite - who doesn't?! - but the whole buddah belly thing really bugs me. Especially when I want to wear tight clothes, like a pretty little dress. Instead I go straight for the lose fitting dresses or t-shirts. I will never be a sexbomb but I
can rock the sexy librarian look just fine when I need too! When I was younger I struggled with trying to fit in and I realize I still am - I'd like that to end. I'd like to feel confident when I walk in a room, I'd like to look at myself in the mirror and be proud of what I see instead of scrutinizing every little thing and finally I'd really like to stop caring what people think and walk to the beat of my own drum! mmmmmm time to start working on things...
And last but certainly not least, I have to give a shout out to Suzie for thinking of this genius plot to take over the world! It's going to be exciting to see what kind of trouble we can get ourselves into, isn't it ladies?

Hey there! So hapy to have been invited to such a cool place, thanks!
Well this picture shows off two of my three best assets. My boobs and my smile (sense of humor).
My third best assets is my eyes, which are all squinty from me laughing but trust me they are HAWT!
And now that I think about it, I like my nose too. Very button-ish and perky and much like what one would see on an animated Disney Princess.
At 38 years old I think I am finally ok with being a size 12, laughing way too loud, telling a dirty joke even when not appropriate and loving everyone I meet because they all have something special to share with me.
I was a thin and decent looking teen and 20 something but I never really thought I was all that pretty. Now I look at that girl in pictures and think "WOW, what damage I could have caused if I only knew how magnificent I looked!". Now it is about personality though isn't it? I mean who likes a 20 something year old woman? they can be so catty and stoopid and downright irritating. Nowadays I feel like everyone I meet likes me for my sense of humor and scathing sarcasm.
Yep I am a hottie... even if I got a little extra around my mid-section.
Visit me
here anytime and YAY for SusieQ for thinking up such a wonderful idea. GO SUZIE

I'm short. I hate that. always getting picked on. Everyone always says I'm cute. But sometimes it would be nice just to be beautiful, pretty, or just slutty. lol. I have brown hair naturally, usually keep it highlighted. I weigh about 102 lbs. I know that sounds small, but believe me if I weighed 120 I would be chubby, Because I'm so short, barely 5 ft. tall. I'm starting to get a few wrinkles on my face. I hate that. I don't think they're going to go away. I quess my best feature is probably my eyes. They're hazel, but look more brown than green. If I really dress up I look pretty good. But I work in jeans and t-shirt. hair in ponytail. So I don't get to really dress up very often. I don't do anything that dressing up would do any good. I'm just more comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt.

I have always liked my eyes and my mouth! But I have a big nose, which is my not so good side. Under all that red dye is thick, wavy ash blond hair. I like the thick and wavy part, but am always changing the color.
I am 30 years old, with four kids, and my body shows it! I have decent boobs because of the babies, but they were killer on my butt! I finally lost that double chin!
I try to be nice, but usually fail. I spaz sometimes, too. I don't think to highly of myself, but other people do. I don't take care of myself and have never been very girly. I used to fit in so well with the guys in high school, we would all forget I was a girl- until another girl showed up. Then the boys became idiots, and all my faults would be pointed out by her, whoever she was.
I do not play girl games.
Guys do not stare at me or look at me or even notice I exist, except for the rare moment when I turn on the charm, like if I need something. I got a cashier at Hastings all flustered; me in my low cut tank top, having forgotten my ID and having no rental card. I live way out of town, and really wanted a movie. That's all I said, and he gave in, got me a new card, and couldn't count the change I was paying with- took him three tries until
I did it for him. I commented on the pretty goth-boy cashier- said he was
way too skinny. My cashier was a tidge pudgy, which is cool, and I think I threw him with that comment (and my charm and boobs, lol).
I haven't felt that good about myself in years. Just made me giddy. On the way home I realized what happened, and was a bit shocked. Suz said to keep it short, and I usually do what I can to sass her, but since she's the boss, I should say, "enough about me already!"
Fun Things I Want to do Here
I want to have tons of links to good articles on marriage, sex, beauty tips, emotional health and self improvement. I also want to set up Cafe Press for this site, and develop Gobulous Hottie Blogger merchandise. T-shirts, etc. We'll need a logo, and stuff like that. We'll have discussion forums about different topics, and encourage participation a lot!!
I'm working on things right now, so hang with me, in the meantime if you've accepted an invitation, get your best pic done, and post it in. Make sure to include a brief introduction, and you're required to tell us your favorite personal assests, physical as well as characteristics. If you need help posting let me know, but I think most of you already know how. I'm trying to figure out why the member list is not showing up on the sidebar? I'll poke around on the template later on this evening to figure it out.
Gotta head to work now!! I already have up a great link to Redbook on the sidebar, which has some really good articles I read that will enhance your amorous self.....lol....
Lets fly!!

Gobhole Hotties Join Here
I've just come up with a really cool idea. First let me tell you what sparked this. I've struggled my entire life with my self esteem in the looks department. Now before you gasp, or think "she's ridiculous", hear me out. I've never been able to just relax, and believe that I am attractive. I've always focused on my flaws, and strove to be thinner, trimmer, or whatever. And now, after divorce, and some major reconstructive surgery on my frontal lobe, I've come to a few conclusions. My looks are not at all what the problem is. They contribute to the problem, in several ways, but it's my attitude ABOUT my looks that is the problem.
I've never been able to accept compliments very well. They make me uncomfortable, because in my head I'm thinking "sure, whatever, I'm fat, or I'm not that pretty and they're just trying to be nice". I have also been thin all my life, to an extreme. After some deep depression, I joined the masses on anti-depressants, and I gained weight. I started getting the "you look healthier" comments. Lots of people started saying, "you look way better with some meat on your bones". Well, I've not been very happy with this meat on my bones, for about 2 years now.
Now that the marriage has unraveled, and I know for a fact the initial attraction had to do with my skinny ass, and tight tummy, I've reformulated my thinking. I'm getting comfortable in my own skin. I've decided that women who are happy with themselves have been viewed as "stuck up" or "snotty" or "arrogant". So why is that? Why would we look at someone who likes themselves, and think it was wrong for them to actually be confident in their looks? How dumb is that.
I propose this. That we not only get comfortable in our own skin, but we celebrate it. We start being hotties, from the inside out. We look in the mirror and we tell ourselves everyday. DANG GIRL, you are HAWT. And the attitude we perpetuate on the inside, will thus infiltrate outward, and gradually we will truly believe we are hotties. We WILL be hotties. Because lets face it ladies, even though you might get told you're hot, do you really believe it? Or do you brush it aside, and believe that old tape playing in your head?
Let's fight the stigma together And lets get hot and be hot. Lets be hotties for ourselves first, then our mates secondly. We can laugh, look, share and explore together. We can swap beauty secrets, and we can encourage and exhort one another. We can have an extreme makeover of the whole body and soul.
Now for the business section:
First of all this template is temporary. I want a template that sparks and flares. One that speaks of our hotness. So i'm on the prowl for it, and if someone finds one, or wants to make one, be my guest.
Next, I want YOU to join me. I don't give a rats ass if you think you're hot or not. Fix yourself up, put on something sexy and take a picture of yourself. When you join, you will post this picture with a short description of yourself, and you will list your best assets inside and OUT. I'll go first!
I took this picture this summer, and I really think this was about the time i finally started to believe, hey, i'm ok and dangit, men like me. I'm not being arrogant, or anything like that. But I'm addressing a lifelong insecurity. And I'm going to embrace my inner hotness, and enjoy it while there's still time.
