Why is Vanity a Bad Thing?
 
I just got called me "vain" with hate.
I know I'm vain but why is that a bad thing, its not as though im hurting anyone.

Nothing wrong with being vain, it's the arrogance that normally comes with it.

Vicky. 04-05-2012 02:34 PM

I wouldnt say vanity is a bad thing really...knowing you are goodlooking or whatever is fine

Its when it crosses to obvious arrogance where you think you are better than everyone else and it shows...that I dont like.

But everyones different I guess.

ILoveTRW 04-05-2012 02:35 PM

well im obviously not arrogant

Patrick 04-05-2012 02:43 PM

Get called it constantly too, some teacher the other day called me an Arrogant Prat.

Not sure what people's problem is with being vain, probably jealousy.

Shaun 04-05-2012 02:50 PM

It only becomes a problem when you become conceited. Expecting favourability because of your looks, thinking you're better than people, becoming narcissistic etc.

I suppose everyone is vain to some extent because of how we choose to dress, use makeup, hair products and toiletries.

Mystic Mock 04-05-2012 03:14 PM

Because people think vain people are arrogant and look down there noses of the same sex.

Well that's what i've came across anyway.

I got that a lot by an ex...Everytime I looked in a mirror, its a control thing and affects your self confidence... ignore it.

Ammi 04-05-2012 03:33 PM

..I'ts fine to take care of yourself..make an effort and be confident with your looks....but I don't think anything in life is a good thing if it's excessive

..narcissism for instance would then become a disorder

Doogle 04-05-2012 03:59 PM

I like to look in the mirror and see how I look...apparently that's being vain. I don't go around claiming I am perfect in every way and stuff so I'm not really arrogant about it. I don't see that as a problem.

I think its a bad thing when you get a good looking person who lets all the praise resulting from that go to their head. There are so many people in my school who act all superior because they're attractive. I hate it.

There's a difference between looking in the mirror to see how you look though imo. I look in the mirror to check my appearance because I'm a really self conscious person. I wouldn't call it vanity. Vanity would be checking yourself in the mirror just because you think you look good.

Mystic Mock 04-05-2012 04:27 PM

I only look in the mirror if I don't look psychotic enough lol.

When I walk past a mirror I usually check my face out, tell myself about how hot i am, and then i will usually take my top of and check my body out.

I'm pretty vain tbh. I think mine stems more through insecurity as I used to be very fat, and only really took care of my looks once I lost weight and people commented on how good I looked. I try to be modest about my looks, but I'm definitely vain.

Ramsay 04-05-2012 05:54 PM
