I don't think I'm ugly but I don't experience pretty privilege either. I find it confusing, how do I know where I actually stand?
I'm definitely no model tier anything but I do consider myself above average in terms of facial bone structure and harmony and other features and my body is alright too.
I don't really present "pretty" iykwim, I dress very plain, tshirt, jeans, no makeup or accessories, hair clipped back and glasses and I wonder if that signals something. Irl, I've never felt I was at a disadvantage due to my looks, never been bullied or treated badly for my appearance so I have to assume I'm not seen as hideous. But also no one ever calls me pretty, no guys approach me, I get 0 feedback on my appearance.
Maybe I'm just mid lol and that is very depressing to think about. In my mind I'm definitely at least above average but irl I don't experience anything that would indicate so and I find that confusing and immediately feel very ugly then.
I don't trust feedback from people online because even if I get positive feedback it is inconsequential to my everyday life where I feel like some npc. How do I know if I'm pretty mid or uglt FOR SURE?
