Well yes actually. Ugly isn't necessarily an insult. It depends on the culture in which you are pressured by. Now ugly in most cultures is an insult, but if I do remember correctly there is a British magazine that uses so called 'Ugly' models for their pictures and advertisement. Insults are all based on what people think. Observations are all based on what the thing is.

Here's my thing: You don't call people something that is typically received negatively when [I]you don't even know the person.[/I]

Today was the first day in my life that I've ever even talked to Nexerus, and after a few posts back and forth he's already calling me something which, by definition, means lack of judgement, wisdom, or experience.

If we're going to bring up cultures, than I should bring up the fact that pretty much every, if not all cultures have points about respecting others. It goes all the way back to our basest mindsets.

Those models you're speaking of no doubt knew that hey were going to be called "Ugly", no? They consented, and maybe even approached the company themselves, so clearly at that point they didn't mind. That's entirely different from someone just telling you out of the blue "Hey girl. You're pretty ugly."

PLOT TWIST: The maker of the medicine needs to charge $2,000 because HIS wife has an entirely different kind of cancer, for which there is no cure at all, and he needs to make as much money as possible off of his invention in order to fund his continued research to try and save his wife.

PLOT TWIST II: The kind of cancer that the drugist's wife suffers from is much more common than the kind that Heinz' wife suffers from. By charging for his drug and continuing his tireless efforts to try and cure this much more common disease, he is saving countless lives.

PLOT TWIST III: While he's in the drugist's laboratory stealing the cure, he also decides to poach some very valuable medical equipment for personal gain. Not only does this constitute theft from the drugist, it also hampers his efforts to try and cure a deadly disease.

COUNTER PLOT TWIST: Heinz decides to be a good citizen and not steal the medicine. Afterword, even with all the money he gained, the doctor still failed to save his wife (Or others around the world) and Heinz' own woman has died as well. Now they are both widowers.

Heinz decision to steal the medicine would stem from a primal, selfish urge to save his own wife while leaving the next man's to die. If Heinz grew up on a farm and wasn't able to receive the proper education to become a doctor and make his own cure, can you still honestly blame him for acting out on those urges? 

The tiger who steals territory from the next will be able to provide for her cubs. The one who is vanquished will starve.

Either way, one cat suffers. It's the way this world spins, and you haven't seemed to have accepted it.
