Some are good, teenagers growing into good looking adults or transformations due to weight lost or haircuts. But a lot are simply "now I use makeup and look generic"

Look to everyone complaining about ''there's no ugly ducklings'' and whatever, please stop. We get it. And a lot of you are adults, but lots of teens do use this site, including myself. These sort of posts are really nice to look at to see other people growing out of their awkward phase and becoming very good looking adults. It's also nice to know that many has gone through the awkward phase just like we are right now, and made it out ok. Besides, some posts are about transitions or getting over bad habits or eating disorders. It's all about the process of changing, and using healthy ways to improve your health such as fitness and such. It gives the message to some that this awkward phase isn't forever, and gives hope.

For those of you with no social skills (pretty much the entirety of the pandas): “Wow! Congratulations! You look fuçking amazing! I’m so happy that you found your stride / got healthy / learned to do your hair and makeup in a way that compliments you better! You didn’t deserve for people to make fun of you but I’m so happy you didn’t let it stop you from improving yourself!” This is what a socially functioning person would say. Some of you need to open up to the idea that you could use a glow-up when it comes to learning normal social cues.

Uh, never hit my glow up, but I made brownies today. *is handing out virtual ones*

We are all kidding ourselves to say ugly doesnt exist. Ugly people parade around as smokeshows on a daily because of their shitty personalities. Ps. I cant imagine how dismal ones life has to be before they get their kicks from dissing people on bored panda. I cant wait to tell the 9gaggers about y'all lmao.

There's that word again "ugly". Why do we have to call anyone that? If someone were to say to me that I was ugly as a kid but I look good now, I would not take that as a compliment.

We can't even trust these. Photoshop. I hope but can't be sure this is not the case

Everyone looking so pwetty these dayz 💅✨

So where are the ugly ducklings exactly? I’m going to agree I’m over this ugly duckling thing. No one is ugly. No one. If we could stop with this ridiculousness then just maybe the “before” versions wouldn’t have felt so bad about themselves in the first place, but this ugly duckling label just perpetuates the cycle, creating a new bunch of “ugly ducklings” who feel bad about themselves. Break the cycle.

All of these are literally just "me as a teenager" vs. "me as an adult." All teenagers are awkward looking, none of these are remotely surprising.

All the before pictures are just fine, all the after pictures are kinda okay too, this is just a very boring post.
