A woman went viral after saying that her beauty “intimidates people” and that other women look down on her because of it.
As a way to feel good, people can spend hours and a lot of money trying to look as good as possible.
One person doesn’t agree with the idea that being pretty is a good thing.
A TikTok post from more than a year ago has recently resurfaced. In it, a woman talks about beauty and how people have treated her throughout her life. Her opinion has been making waves on social media.
Watch the video below to see this girl who looks like Kate Moss.
Brenttany Sharraine, who is a motivational speaker and has over 16,000 Instagram followers and 167,000 TikTok followers, thinks that people treat her differently because of how she looks.
She also said that this kind of treatment isn’t always good, as most people would think.
Sharraine explained that it’s not “pretty privilege,” which is a trend in which attractive people think they are treated better because of how they look. Instead, it’s her own experiences.
The speaker on motivation began her TikTok with:
This is just me giving you guys my experiences on how people treat me.
Yes, I do get a lot of stares and I get a lot of compliments too.
Some people gaze and some people scowl at me.
But what I’ve noticed is that the people who usually scowl are usually women. I have never in my life noticed a man scowling at me, so it says a lot.
Sharraine went on to say that she feels like a “trophy” because her previous partners often introduced her to their friends and family early on, no matter how serious the relationship was.
The influencer continued:
I’ve been told I come off very intimidating, although I’m not mean at all to people.
I’ve been invited to events and meetings with business partners.
I’m aware now as a woman in her late 20s that I’ve been used as a trophy before.
Sharraine also said that her looks have affected the way she gets along with other women.
She says that women have told her that when they first met her, they thought she was a “b****.”
Sharraine then said that men have told her she looks “expensive” even when she’s not wearing anything expensive.
The motivational speaker also said that she had been left out of groups of friends, even the ones she had made herself.
Sharraine said at the end of the video:
I was told as a child that it’s unattractive to believe that you are pretty, even if you are.
Even though Sharraine’s TikTok has no comments, people are still talking about her video online.
One person wrote:
Agreed I’ve had the worst few years because of my looks.
Block support and well I’ve lost friends and my life made hell! Agreed pretty privilege! No pretty hurts!
Someone else added:
She’s right. Really stunning-looking girls do have a lot of problems with unwanted attention.
