TAPESCRIPT

G: Kieran, wake up!

K: What?

G: Do this test. Find out if you’re the ideal boyfriend.

K: Oh, OK. It might help me understand why I haven’t got a girlfriend.

G: I’ve told you. Girls won’t go out with you cause you’re ugly.

K: Ah, Georgie, with a best friend like you, who needs enemies?

G: Okey, ready? Question one. How much time do you spend on your appearance? Less than 5 minutes, 30 minutes, more than an hour.

K: Eh, what’s that mean?

G: It means stuff  like combing your hair, cleaning your teeth, having a shower, putting on your clothes, looking after your skin…

K: Girly stuff.

G: Yeah.

K: Less than 5 minutes.

G: Right. Two… How would you split up with a girl?

K: Let’s see, I think I’d break up with her by text message. It’s cheaper.

G: Great answer, Kieran.

K: What?

G: Nothing… Three… How do you celebrate your girlfriend’s birthday? Throw a party with a birthday cake, go out for a meal and then go dancing, or go out with your friends.

K: The party and the cake, I think.

G: Right… Number four… Household chores… If you were married, which ones would you do?

K: Not C. I can’t stand ironing… B! I like cooking!

G: Five. She asks you to go shopping with her… What do you do?

K: Well, I don’t like playing computer games. So, I’d agree but spend all my life reading comic books in the book shop while she’s looking for clothes.

G: OK. And finally, number six… You go to the cinema, there’s a choice of three films. She prefers the romantic film. Which film do you see?

K: Well, I’d like to see the action film with Arnie obviously…

G: Of course.

K: But I’d probably compromise and see the French comedy.

G: OK, Kieran. Time for your score. Here it is… The maximum is 60, and you got 20 points!

K: 20! What does it say?

G: You’re not totally hopeless… you’re immature and selfish… if you want to get on well with girls, you’re going to have to think about how they have fun.

K: Oh!

G: Hey! Where are you going?

K: Em, I’m just going for a shower.

Tell Tina

Dear Tina

I’ve never written to TeenTimeMag before, but after reading your article about the dating website Beautifulpeople.net, I’ve just got to let you know how I feel. Usually, I’m a quite easy-going girl. In fact, I’m a bit shy. But right now I’m really angry! Let me tell you why…

 Beautifulpeople.net is an online club which only accept beautiful people. To join you have to spend in a picture and a profile of what you’re like. Then, for three days members of the opposite sex study your profile, send in rude messages and then vote whether you’re attractive enough to become one of them. According to your article, more than 35,000 people have tried to join the club since January, but only one in twenty has been  successful! It’s a cruel, arrogant system that makes good people feel frustrated, lonely and insecure. I’m not narrow-minded, but I was absolutely amazed you decided to print an article about this club, and I’m disappointed that you described it in such a positive way. I’ve always admired the sensible advice you give adolescent girls. You tell them not to try to look like skinny supermodels. You say it’s more important to have a lively personality and to be friendly and generous than it is to have perfect teeth or a sexy body. But your article on Beautifulpeople.net sends out the opposite message: that appearance is more important than personality.

Last weekend, I went to a new club with some friends. I was wearing a short denim skirt, a sleeveless top and high heels and they let me go in. But they told my friend Debbie she couldn’t go in. Why not? Maybe she wasn’t pretty enough or maybe it was because she was wearing some baggy jeans, a hooded sweatshirt and a pair of old trainers. Debbie’s a cheerful outgoing girl with a great sense of humour, but just then she felt miserable and depressed and she started crying. And that’s how the thousands of people who are rejected by Beautifulpeople.net must feel.

Personally, I can’t stand people who look down on others just because of their appearance, so the next time you write an article about such an unpleasant thing as Beautifulpeople.net please try to describe it more accurately.

Jodie, Luton
