The Basics of Being Ugly

The building was to house particular indigent members of a community but was turned into a kind of ‘dorm’ .  Rooms are rented to women.  Usually they are under thirty, and are students or employed.   Most of the females in what I’ll call Martha’s House, are nursing students or nurses.

There was a time there were girls of a different level, girls who had dates and boyfriends, and who would go out on evenings, and although it wasn’t allowed, sometimes have a boy friend stay over.

Now, none of these girls has a date, a boyfriend, and their lives revolve about Martha’s House, each other, and their school or job.

They are loud, clumsy, careless females, unattractive, not only physically but personally.   Their voices are loud and raucous.  They seem unable to open a fridge or put down a cup without slamming it.  They talk in this horrible grind, and although, maybe, when they were younger, they were not as obnoxious, because they lived with their parents, now, it is like being in a woman’s prison, dealing with the lowest of the low.

These women are bone deep ugly.   It is not just their faces or bodies, it is their personalities.   If they were quiet and demure, if they were not clumsy and careless, they would not be as repellent as they are.

The odd thing is that I never met females like this before.

I never could imagine women with no dates, ever.   No boyfriends,  no one calling them except their mothers.  These females are not lesbians, but they might as well be, for which man would be attracted to a loud clumsy girl whose voice is as pleasant as a revving engine.   A woman so noisy and clumsy, who speaks in such a coarse way, that you don’t want to hear her?

When I was young I would go out almost every week end, different places, different people, a huge round of friends and interests, and choices.

If I were their age, being home on a Saturday night would be misery, save if there was some kind of natural disaster or illness.

None of them have dates.

Their big event is having pizza delivered or walking to the supermarket.

It is not that they are simply physically unattractive, their behaviour, their personalities, their lack of consideration overwhelms.   Clearly, these women developed these ugly traits before they left their mother’s house.

They came into the world with their loud mouths and ugly traits and never, for one second, appreciated how repulsive they are.

They don’t learn from others, they learn from each other, and persist in their behaviour as if they do not appreciate how no one who doesn’t have to associate with them would do so.

They don’t look around and wonder why there are sixteen of them, not one ever being asked on a date.  Not one.   They don’t notice other people who are attractive and in demand passing them.

The younger ones might think there is a future, not recognising that the older ones are who they will be.

    • This is a very interesting piece of writing. No going around the bushes in manner of speaking but very straight forward or direct to the point. Yes, the message really hit the mark.

      I found the title "The Basics of Being Ugly" a bit amusing and at the same time quite absorbing. Who wants to be ugly in the first place? Everyone wants to be beautiful am I right?

      The title reminds me of our college class back in the old days in the Art Appreciation/Humanities especially in Aesthetics. I vividly recall that our professor once told us that in Aesthetics "there is no such thing as ugly, only less beautiful".

      As I understand the writings the word ugly covers both the "physical ugliness" and the "ugliness of character".

      Whether or not there is such a thing as "Martha's House" or it is a mere fictionalized representation, it is quite intriguing that a group of girls with physical and character ugliness are tied together in one place.

      I believed that the development of any person character is always dependent upon the "nature-nurture" thing (genetics and environmental factors).

      If and when I'm going to meet those girls in the near future (who knows?) I'm going to be just my old self: just be myself and to carry myself as gentleman.

      • It is a real place, and these are real people; warts and all. Their ugliness is not just physical, it is everything about them. Their behaviour has virtually chased the more normal people out, and they don't seem to appreciate reality.
