Being judged

Try being a short, balding, 140 pound dude lol. But we already all know about my issues. The judginess of society probably did play a part in the cosmetic surgery thing and the obsessively-working-out thing, although there are certainly other more prevalent factors.

I myself am a terribly judgy person, and I often watch my automated, deep-level programmed thought patterns instantly spring forth to judge whoever I encounter from a sort of third-person perspective. I do make a conscious effort not to let it devalue them as actual people in my view though, since beauty can be found almost anywhere you look - and also we all know judging a book by its cover is an amateur mistake.

Also, I've yet to encounter any creepy dudes in sex shops, but then I also lack voluptuous breasts, bouncing booty, and immaculate beef-curtains, which tends to dissuade most (most) sexually frustrated skeevy porn-shop-dwelling pervs.

 

To further derail this thread.......

IME the smaller shops that carry mostly videos with a small collection of toys tend to be creepy, while the larger stores that focus mostly on toys tend to be more like a normal retail store. To be honest the retail prices at the brick & mortar stores are high. I do understand the extra overhead and necessity of higher prices, but sometimes the prices are way out of line.
