| Was Invisible. EC Moderator   Gender: Male Orientation: Gay Out Status: Out to everyone Age: 20 Posts: 3,704 Join Date: Jul 2008 | Re: Window..Mirror..Or Photos? I had an english teacher who always said that mirrors don't usually show the imperfections as they're seen to other people. I don't know how true that is, but I hate those huge close up mirrors where it magnifies everything.  Photographs usually show the opposite to what we see in the mirror, so when we look at a photograph of ourself, we're far more likely to prefer it if it's flipped to a mirror image, because that's what we're used to seeing. But people who know us will prefer it the other way, because they're used to seeing us the opposite to that… I don't see why windows would be more accurate. I don't know about new windows, but the windows in my house aren't perfectly straight because they're so old. And you can see less I think in your reflection in windows so I'm not sure why that would be most accurate. |

I don't know maybe because they're wider?? and unlike mirrors can be bent whilst windowds are straight, because they're hard? Ok that doesn't even make sense lol
