1. Do you avoid watching TV or reading fashion magazines because they make you feel unattractive? If so, why do you feel this way?

Oh dear God. I thought I had ego issues! But no, I think I'm safe.

No. Of course not. Man, there are enough things in my real life for me to worry about; measuring up to some psychotic/neurotic/imaginary Line of Attractiveness is a short trip to insanity.

On the other hand, I don't read fashion mags too often, just because they're ridiculously ad-oriented. I can't afford ANYthing in them, emotionally, psychically, or financially.

2. Name two people that you know love you for just being you and nothing else:

I've gotta go with Beast and Jenny. They've seen me in some pretty hair-raising situations and they haven't run away yet.

3. Name two people whose inner beauty outshines their outer beauty:

OK, the way that's phrased, no matter how I answer it, the people I choose are going to be wounded.

So I'll just say that I think all my friends' inner beauty outshines their outer beauty, mostly because once I get to know people, it's hard for me to be objective about what they look like.

4. Name two people you have prejudged wrongly before getting to know them:

Gail and Beast, not in order of occurrence.

5. Name two people that have greatly positively influenced your life:

Dad and Lois.
