Jerri is the “airhead blond” while her sister Teena, and her friend Stick are the atypical extremely smart honor students. Stick will probably grow up into a gorgeous woman, as will Teena, and both will continuously have to live down there childhood names, have great careers as assistant department heads of some research organization, have children like Jerri - good looking but lacking the brains of a flea, be married to boozing bozos who abuse them in some way (and each of them “cheat” on the girls with Jerri.)
Any “ugly duckling’s” who turned into “the girl next door beauties” in their late teens/early twenties whose life doesn’t follow this scenario are both extremely lucky and very fortunate, and my elderly hate is off to you.
No one need comment about my being a “bitter” female. I’m 6’6” and male, very hetero, and have experience in various nursing specialties, Emergency Care being one, immunology (see “For Better or Worse”) for another, and burn research for a third. But I have seen what I described happen on one too many occasions. May those, beauties of not, find peace sometime and somewhere before it’s too late on this side of the veil.
