I've had a similar situation happen to me with my sister. I take about 30 minutes to get dressed and showered and hair/makeup in the mornings before I go out. My sister calls me vain for taking time to look nice. I feel better when I feel I look good, makes me feel confident when I walk out the door in public. I understand people judge you based on appearance but I don't care too much, if I think I look decent then thats fine for me. Don't get me wrong, when I go to class sometimes its a messy bun and a baseball hat and a t-shirt. There are some days where you don't feel like messing with it. Also like you Sweetpea, I work out at the gym a good amount. I don't get rude comments thrown at me like you have, which is quite innapropriate it sounds but I think I'm a decent size and I like myself. Nothing wrong with comparing yourself, I've gotten several ideas to enhance my own appearance through comparisons, nothing wrong with that.
I think some women are a bit too jealous for their own good and others needn't worry about how they look, they're already satisfied.
