I find that view depressing. Your only wish is to be accepted by society through being misunderstood? I don't even see why acceptance is that important. As long as I look good and can get laid, I have no need to enter society. The only thing missing in my life is immortality and eternal youth, and maybe complete economic independence.

:lol:

And yet you are obsessed with acceptance, or you wouldn't worry about losing your good looks. If all you want is to get laid and you are indifferent to other people's opinions, what's wrong with hiring a prostitute?

A few years ago a highly controversial ad was shown in Swiss cinemas depicting an old (seventies-ish) couple naked in bed having passionate sex. Even though they were grey-haired and wrinkled, the ad was graceful, dignified and even sensuous. Real beauty comes from inside, and a person may be loved for other qualities than movie-star good looks.
