The boys at my school have a Who's Hot list, and I'm # 7...what do I do?

Question

I recently found out that the boys that go to my school and are in my grade, have devised a Who's Hot list. On it, are the girls they think are hottest in the grade. We have fifty students in our grade and I'm #7 on the list. Apparently, they have categories and I rank pretty high in each of them, but my best friend is #6 on this list. When she heard I was right behind her, she was okay with it, but then she heard I was starting to beat her in the list. If I kept up whatever I was doing, I was going to rank ahead of me. Now she's convinced she's not pretty and she is determined to dominate me in this totally fake competition. I think this list is just stupid, but my friend is very competitive. What do I do?

Answer 1

You just need to remind her friend of how gorgeous and 'hot' she is. It sounds like she needs help in the self confidence category, and there really isn't anything you can do for her other than remind her how great she is, and just continue to try to make her feel better about herself, but in the end, she has to learn to deal with not being the 'hottest' girl in school. Just tell her how cool it is she is even on the list, as I can tell you tons of girls who won't even make a list like that. In the end, as far as this competition is concerned, I wouldn't do anything differently. If you are the better looking to those guys, then whatever, cool, but remind her it is a small school, and that those are a small number of guys just being stupid. Hope this helps, and she doesn't get to evil about the competition.

Answer 2

First let me say Souljah boy is on top of his game. He has a deal that most rappers that been in the game for a long time dont have. He owns most of his franchise and he gets like 12 cent per cd. Souljah boy is popular but not to everyone and not everywhere. He is hot now, but does he have longevity. Hottest MC means hottest all around, not just popularity, U have to be one of the best on every level. Content and skill play a part.

Answer 3

Stop having anything to do with this list, and ignore your friend whenever she starts talking about it. Soon, she will feel really stupid and realize that the list is a piece of crap which is devised by incredibly shallow boys.

Answer 4

It's just a dumb list. Tell her to get over it, just because she ranks below you it isn't going to ruin her life or anything. Also, if you only have fifty students in your grade, well that's not a lot of students.... It doesn't mean much then. Did that sound mean?

Answer 5

Tell her she can get to the top of the list by wearing skirts,and no underwear. Then make sure to bend over around the boys a lot. LOL The list is stupid, and so is your friend if she is obsessed with it.

Answer 6

Get your friend and other girls in your grade to help you turn it around. Make a hot rating list for all the guys. Otherwise just ignore it. They will get over it and move on faster if you dont make such a big deal out of it.

Answer 7

These lists are common, when my daughter was in high school she was featured on one and hurt by the fact that she was barely in the top 10. I remember her vomiting in the bathroom after meals, crying about moving up to AT LEAST 4th on the list. I tried to convince her other-wise saying she was beautiful the way she was but she didn't listen. After about three months into her repulsive disorder she moved up to number two. I still feel like it wasn't worth it, even after she made homecoming queen.

Answer 8

What the hell? That's messed up. Yeah it might be flattering to know that boys find you and your friend pretty attractive, but tell your friend to get over herself. I say find a guy who didn't contribute to the Who's Hot list and go out with him, cause it looks like the boys at your school are pretty superficial and lame.

Answer 9

Let her win....whats in it for you if you win? More attention? More Guys?.....



Being competitive is good, but in what sense.

You can work really hard to the top of the list. What will you gain for the time you spent?



In the end you'll gain nothing, focus your time that actually makes a different. Let her win.

Answer 10

Just like explain to your friend that it's just a list and it really doesn't mean anything, if she was your real friend I'm sure she'd understand about it and stop trying to be better then you and competing against you over something thats really nothing. Good Luck. Hope that helps!

Answer 11

It is stupid, tell them to get a life, the prolly stole it from South Park or something. Ignore those dickheads lol

Answer 12

This sounds like the democratic race! Do you love me? Yes or no, check the box!

Answer 13

You won't win in that system. It's like with men who think they're tough - there's always someone who's stronger or tougher.

Answer 14

what i would do if i was you was NOT to talk about it and let it go and if you hear about it laugh and say that is so stupid just dont let your friend go

Answer 15

Um. You don't do anything, because it is STUPID. You MUST be in middle school to even think this hard about it.

Answer 16

give the popular kid head and dyke it out with your girlfriend, if you have to go to war, plan to win.

Answer 17

just tell her to grow up and that you think she is beautiful, she will realize it is stupid

Answer 18

F*** it ayo.
