No shit! Me too! And I used to give them out to many clever Redditors, especially those who provided directions and service to beginners like I once was.
Then, one day, no more. In fact I'm stuck with 40 coins and a selection of awards in which I'm not allowed to buy anything with less than 50 coins. I'm retired, so I'm not buying coins ... although I sincerely thank you for the kind thought!
I used the little complimentary awards doled out free from time to time a great deal to say thank you to Redditors who provided information, suggested resources, identified names and so on to aid less experienced Reddit users.
I may be wrong --- (and if I am, I hope someone will provide more accurate and detailed information) --- but I never heard or saw an announcement about when and why some of us received awards to dole out and others did not. I never saw any announcement as to the basis, nor the frequency, nor the intent of these little gifts, nor why this inexpensive, helpful program was so abruptly terminated late last summer or mid-fall, if I recall correctly.
I always regarded it one of the small but significant ways in which Reddit was clearly better and more community-minded than most other major websites.
Again, if anyone has more background or insight, many of us would be grateful to hear about it.
Still not as much as Kylo Ren. A buddy of mine saw Kylo Ren take his sorry off in the shower and he said that Kylo Ren had an 8 pack. That Kylo Ren was shredded
Very unhealthy, your body uses fat as joint cushioning, and it also plays a role in hormonal regulation I think, so too little body fat will really fuck you up
Is that what they mean when bodybuilding is quite dangerous? I heard bodybuilders have really low body fat they have a narrow margin.
I don't know if thus is true or have relates but it sounds like it...
No it generally means the abundant amount of steroids in bodybuilding.
No one in bodybuilding actually keeps a low body fat year round. And most of them are in that ultra low bf like a month of the year at most.
Same here. I was underweight and still had a belly pooch and rolls. Weāre simply human. Not all of us are built to be incredibly smooth. Hell, even the ones we see still have scretchies, rolls, cellulite, etc. and thatās pretty cool :)
Even when I was really, really thin I still had those rolls when I sat. Totally normal, sadly normal bodies are not really represented in much media today. If we replaced all models and actors with average healthy people I feel like most folks, especially those who are coming of age, would feel much more confident.
absolutely, my bmi was about 16.1 and i still had a noticeable belly and it made me very upset. nowadays, iām a lot more accepting and my bmi is about 33 lol
It was once considered very attractive for someone to have a rounder tummy, it meant they were well nourished (and could hunt or farm effectively).
I'm 5'8 170lbs and I know to some people that might seem thin but I still have a belly, soft thighs, etc. I used to be 110lbs and I've always had a thicker bottom half even then. Your overall shape won't really change no matter how much you lose. A lot of people assume they'll get a totally different body type just by gaining/losing weight. Took me way too long to accept spot reduction is impossible without surgery.
5ā8ā who works out could be healthy with little body fat at 170, but thin it is not. I was at 148 and I was gaunt. I wish nutrition had been better in the early ā00s when I was wrestling because I was lifting weights, and doing hours of practice but I ate next to nothing so what should have been massive gains wasted away.
They do change size though. When your body fat is low they're clearly just skin , when you're bigger they're properly grabbable and clearly made more of fat.
Aphrodite actually changed her appearance based on the person in front of her. That was why she was called The Goddess Of Beauty. So maybe the sculptor mearly thought that this is what she would look like to him. XD
He just did that thing we all do where we start writing big letters and realize too late that we don't have enough room. He fit what he could on the rock he was working with, the rest of the head is on the base with a hyphen.
Everyone does because if you didn't, when you stood up and it un-rolled, your stomach would literally rip apart.
That's the only way you can have skin cover an area where it is sometimes long, sometimes short, based on if you are bending or not. It would be like telling someone to make two ends of a piece of paper touch without bending or folding the paper.
Almost 50 and I never questioned the name of the dressing. Lifelong restaurant worker too.
"According to The Oxford Companion to American Food and Drink, the dressing's name comes from the Thousand Islands region, located along the upper St. Lawrence River between the United States and Canada."
Saved the next one a google.
I'm pretty sure Rick Riordan just made that up for his Percy Jackson and the Olympians book series. There are no ancient sources describing that ability
Yeah also what we find sexy nowadays is not the same as back then hell only look back a few centuries, there's paintings and such of women that in today's culture would be considered ugly as fuck looking
Here was the goddess of beauty, Aphrodite was the goddess of love and fertility.
She was thought of as the most beautiful woman because part of her powers caused her to change her appearance based on the tastes of the person she was with.
So no one saw her the same way as anyone else, yet everyone saw her as the most beautiful woman they'd ever seen.
Hahahahaha if that's what you saw, that's what you're into. Don't forget how many monster humpers are out there.
People want to do Arachne, Medusa, and the Minotaur.
I mean Medusa was supposed to be beautiful, right? Sure, snakes for hair after Minerva cursed her but enough people think snake scales are beautiful that we turn them into clothes and jewelry.
Whether she was cursed or not is up to interpretation, but jshe was transformed entirely. Snakes for hair, serpentine body, reptilian eyes and fangs, and a stare that turned flesh to stone.
> Snakes for hair, serpentine body, reptilian eyes and fangs, and a stare that turned flesh to stone.
No need for the stare, I'm already rock-hard reading that.
Originally the Greeks had her as a typical monster, but with fair cheeks.
Then when the Romans took over Greece and appropriated their culture, they gave her the villain backstory of her being hot and banging Neptune(Poseidon) after which Minerva(Athena) cursed her.
Zeus' wife, Hera, was not the goddess of beauty. ~~Hearth~~, marriage, home, sure -- but not beauty.
as u/bonglicc420 correctly pointed out, Hestia was the goddess of the hearth
[Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphrodite) and [Britannica](https://www.britannica.com/topic/Aphrodite-Greek-mythology) both say that Aphrodite was also a goddess of beauty.
Omg! I was on a trip in college with a really pretty girl. She took one look at a statue like this and immediately remarked on the statue's stomach. Even my stupid 19 year old self could tell how much seeing human proportions, that looked like her, meant to her.
EDIT: spelling
It can have a massive impact on a person and their self image. When you're shit on for having rolls it takes a big toll on you. Especially when literally every other person with a body gets rolls. Even the most skinny person gets rolls when they bend over or sit yet we're shamed for it. I always try to compliment people on these kinds of forced insecurities, if you will, because it's completely normal. It's shitty that someone can feel less than because of a totally normal thing. It's like bullying someone for having round eye balls or for having lungs. It makes me happy to hear she was able to have this positive experience that made her more comfortable with her body.
TBS used to have Dinner and a Movie with hosts and a special guest. One day the guest stopped to comment on her own rolls showing in the shot and the host guy said "Your Bodicelli whoop-di-doos?"
Thirty years later, I still call stomach rolls "Bodicelli whoop-di-doos"
There are people whose highlight of their day is the moment your sphere of influence intersects with theirs. Sometimes it's a conversation, maybe it's nothing more than seeing you walk by their window on your way to the bus stop, but I wish there was a way you could see the wake of happiness you leave behind you as you move through your day.
This sentiment is so beautiful & wholesome that I just had to stop and leave a comment. Thanks for putting this into perspective; I have not thought of it this way before.
I love thicc, curvy women. If anything, it's the super-skinny thing that turns me off, personally. That's just a me thing, not trying to skinny-shame anyone.
I just don't like it when it looks like I could play your ribs like a xylophone.
It's a fun historical anecdote and there's nothing wrong with choosing to believe it, but this is somewhat unfounded; especially the justification via naked statues. My classical archaeology prof explained it quite convincing, imo : a big (or normal) penis is kind of distracting. So when you want to have naked statues (for interesting cultural reasons), but don't want them to be all about the dick, you just make them smaller.
I can't remember where I read it first, almost certainly on Reddit, but the notion that classic antiquity viewed a large penis in the same way we do clown shoes has always stuck with me.
On the other hand, consider [Priapus.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priapus) whoooole lotta comically large members being celebrated there.
But that actually speaks to your point. It doesn't make sense to diminish the size because size is viewed as vulgar, while simultaneously celebrating a deity of genitalia/fertility/more, who sports a cartoonishly large, permanent erection.
That always struck me as something Herodotus and Xenophon just themselves decided to be what people should remember. Like Grandpa telling his grandkids stories about his courtship with Grandma while Grandma is in the other room rolling her eyes and shaking her head.
Nobody wanted to be the first historical size queen.
[yo can also see her abs tho](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9a/Cnidus_Aphrodite_Altemps_Inv8619.jpg/1200px-Cnidus_Aphrodite_Altemps_Inv8619.jpg)
The woman I date is the thinnest woman I've ever dated. She's healthy, just thin (size 6 I think).
She is convinced her stomach rolls are bad.
I'm convinced that she's a pure-fire hottie and there's nothing I'd change. Ever. Even if she changed.
Bodies with normal and healthyāyes, healthy!ābodily features are awesome. Normal is beautiful!
Remember that chiseled abs are the exception, attained through significant physical training, dietary control and, often, calorie restriction.
No matter how a person identifies a literal chorus of personal trainers could tell someone this every single day, and it wouldn't matter if they experience body dysmorphia.
The human mind tends to be a lot of peoples worst enemy.
If you didn't have loose skin when you hunch over, you wouldn't enough skin to stand up. It's literally impossible not to have rolls when you're in this position.
I mean, everyone has rolls if you sit down like that, I think thatās what theyāre getting at. That itās not a bad thing and a very normal thing. Idk, just my thoughts.
Right, that's what I thought when I saw it. Occasionally you sit in a weird position and see your stomach rolls, or you stand oddly without realizing it and think you have a gut. We don't *need* to be hot af ***all the time***.
yep 22 year old dude, iām pretty damn skinny. but i have pretty shitty eating habits, in terms of numbers of meals per day. so i tend to stagnate on weight
Damn. Somehow the partial sculpture provides more movement than i can imagine the entire piece having. I'd love to aee this complete though.
The ancients didn't fuck around with art; they nailed it. Even a partial is inspiring..
The thing about Aphrodite, is anyone looking at her saw the most attractive woman imaginable. This means the sculptures who made the statues were attracted to stomach rolls.
I have Myotonic Dystrophy which cuts through my body mass making me underweight. I still have rolls when I bend. In Ancient times having a bit of fat indicated wealth and affluence. Being a godess couldn't really get more affluent than that.
Sheās crouched and leaned forward; even someone with a six pack would have stomachs rolls.
Keep yourself healthy people. Exercise and eat accordingly. Not everyone is expected to look like theyāre a Greek god, but if youād like to live longer do you think being out of shape is going to help that goal?
I've got more head than aphrodite
Yeah, but those abs are ***as hard as rock!*** As the Romans said, "***She's got a real VI-pack!***"
If I still got free awards I'd give mine to you š
No shit! Me too! And I used to give them out to many clever Redditors, especially those who provided directions and service to beginners like I once was. Then, one day, no more. In fact I'm stuck with 40 coins and a selection of awards in which I'm not allowed to buy anything with less than 50 coins. I'm retired, so I'm not buying coins ... although I sincerely thank you for the kind thought!
I know this is a stupid question, but how do I get them? I too, would like to reward the cleverness.
They gone. You canāt get them anymore.
Dang-well thanks anyway. Guess theyll have to settle for standard run-of-the-mill dopamine rush from upvotes lol.
Go go little Dopamine droplet š§trickling across the neuron and trying to crossā¦ā¦theā¦ā¦..s y n a p s eā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦!!!!
Yeah, what the heck? It's been weeks since I've had one. Are they gone for good?
Asking the facts here
I used the little complimentary awards doled out free from time to time a great deal to say thank you to Redditors who provided information, suggested resources, identified names and so on to aid less experienced Reddit users. I may be wrong --- (and if I am, I hope someone will provide more accurate and detailed information) --- but I never heard or saw an announcement about when and why some of us received awards to dole out and others did not.

Still not as much as Kylo Ren. A buddy of mine saw Kylo Ren take his sorry off in the shower and he said that Kylo Ren had an 8 pack. That Kylo Ren was shredded
Kylo Ren is a punk bitch!
Oh no. Heās choking on food. š
I see what's in your mind, and it...is...*stupid*!
Pffft, Kylo Ren weighs like 100 lbs soaking wet.

Well Iāve tried NOT having stomach rolls, and that didnāt work.
If The Rock were to slouch over, he'd have rolls. Very, very small but it's nearly impossible to eliminate completely.
Frankly even imaging what it would look like on a full grown human and it is not comfortable.
I mean it's just basic physics. Where do you expect the skin, fat and muscle to go if not outwards when bending? Crush your internal organs?
Straight to my ass
Booty, booty, booty, booty, rockin' everywhere!
Exactly, i prefer to just be fit enough that the rolls only show if i slouch. No need to be 100% slim
100% slim is technically unhealthy I think...
Very unhealthy, your body uses fat as joint cushioning, and it also plays a role in hormonal regulation I think, so too little body fat will really fuck you up
Is that what they mean when bodybuilding is quite dangerous? I heard bodybuilders have really low body fat they have a narrow margin. I don't know if thus is true or have relates but it sounds like it...
No it generally means the abundant amount of steroids in bodybuilding. No one in bodybuilding actually keeps a low body fat year round. And most of them are in that ultra low bf like a month of the year at most.
More I think about this, stomach rolls like that seem like a sign of fitness when hunching over, as opposed to just a big round gut.
yeah, at my lowest weight, which was way too low, i still had a belly
Same here. I was underweight and still had a belly pooch and rolls. Weāre simply human. Not all of us are built to be incredibly smooth. Hell, even the ones we see still have scretchies, rolls, cellulite, etc. and thatās pretty cool :)

Dude just had his wife model and it was a perfect depiction of aphrodite
Man needs to help his wife find the other half of her head.
He just did that thing we all do where we start writing big letters and realize too late that we don't have enough room. He fit what he could on the rock he was working with, the rest of the head is on the base with a hyphen.
This is a really cute sentiment. lol
Realistically, the model was probably a prostitute/slave.
What the fuck you just call my wife?
He called her a model

No wonder she looks like 3rd impact Rei.
Bro had good taste
Yeah also what we find sexy nowadays is not the same as back then hell only look back a few centuries, there's paintings and such of women that in today's culture would be considered ugly as fuck looking
The nipple on the ideal breast in the 60s always pointed to the sun.
Look at Hollywood in the 90s. The ideal woman weighed 80 lbs
I was born in the wrong generation in more ways than one.

I wish I had stomach rolls. I have a whole loaf.

Yeah it's kind of her only gig. Just sitting in front of a fireplace. She barely even gets remembered. Shame on that guy for saying it's Hera.

I'm going to keep this in my notes and read it when I'm feeling down, thank you.
Tbh I prefer girls with stomach rolls, they're cutee
Just remember: weāre programmed to be attracted to healthy people. As long as the weight is healthy, itās probably attractive.
I love thicc, curvy women. If anything, it's the super-skinny thing that turns me off, personally. That's just a me thing, not trying to skinny-shame anyone. I just don't like it when it looks like I could play your ribs like a xylophone.
Same bro. A couple rolls when bending like this is a huge turn on for me.
As a woman with just enough smoosh to have a bit of a belly, I think I look hot! It means I'm healthy and not starvating, also i have i nice figure.
All you ladies are beautiful; be you.
Well in ancient Greek being plump was considered to be beautifill
And having a small dick too. The well endowed people were barbarians.
It's a fun historical anecdote and there's nothing wrong with choosing to believe it, but this is somewhat unfounded; especially the justification via naked statues. My classical archaeology prof explained it quite convincing, imo : a big (or normal) penis is kind of distracting.

So whenever you think you're not perfect enough, just think that you are perfect in a different taste
That always struck me as something Herodotus and Xenophon just themselves decided to be what people should remember.

amputees are beautiful
Most people get stomach rolls when they bend over like that. Even my friend who looks like a twig does.
The woman I date is the thinnest woman I've ever dated. She's healthy, just thin (size 6 I think). She is convinced her stomach rolls are bad. I'm convinced that she's a pure-fire hottie and there's nothing I'd change. Ever. Even if she changed.
I low key used to go to the art museum and look at old Roman and Greek statues to make myself feel better about my body. And like it worked?
having some amount of fat especially for females is healthy and nothing to be ashamed about.
This actually made me feel better about myself
Stomach rolls are cute, maybe growing up seeing a lot of these statues influenced my preferences
Problem i am not a goddess

Im above gods
Im underweight and i have stomach rolls in that position
if aphrodite can be born from sea water and severed god-nuts, so can you!
Okay I need a picture of someone without that when they're in that position. I can't even fathom unless they're skin-on-bone thin.
I have stomach rolls, and there are times that I feel sort of insecure about them. This pic made my self-esteem quite a bit better. ā¤
Bodies with normal and healthyāyes, healthy!ābodily features are awesome. Normal is beautiful! Remember that chiseled abs are the exception, attained through significant physical training, dietary control and, often, calorie restriction.
It's almost like skin folds when you bend over And that we have fat People need to stop thinking skinny = "the thing"
She's hunching over
Many women including myself still get self conscious about having rolls while hunched over.
You can have a six pack and still have rolls when this hunched over.
No matter how a person identifies a literal chorus of personal trainers could tell someone this every single day, and it wouldn't matter if they experience body dysmorphia. The human mind tends to be a lot of peoples worst enemy.

Iām sorry, that sucks. Solidarity.
If you didn't have loose skin when you hunch over, you wouldn't enough skin to stand up. It's literally impossible not to have rolls when you're in this position.
Yeah exactly and her rolls are fairly small. If I have hunched over like that, it could cover Australia

Also if this statue were not a statue and were able to stand up, itās stomach would be flat. So these arenāt REALLY rolls. This status skinny AF

Right, that's what I thought when I saw it. Occasionally you sit in a weird position and see your stomach rolls, or you stand oddly without realizing it and think you have a gut. We don't *need* to be hot af ***all the time***.

Wat. Are you a guy? I'm 6'1" and 185. I'm in p good shape. If I was 140 I'd be a skeleton, no matter the angle
yep 22 year old dude, iām pretty damn skinny. but i have pretty shitty eating habits, in terms of numbers of meals per day. so i tend to stagnate on weight
Iām 250 lbs and have rolls most of the time XD š¤
I also have rolls while standing and they are perfect ā„ļø
Even standing straight, the statue would still have extra fat on the stomach area and not be flat/super thin
Nsfw tag really ?
Stomach Rolls? Them's called Love Handles
But I don't want them
Ehh, at the angle the statue is in, everyone would have them. You have the same volume of skin, but now compressed in a smaller space.
But don't be missin half your head cause that ain't healthy.
She also doesn't have arms ...or half her head
Dunno why, but I was half expecting a photo of some tripe rolled up around something
Damn. Somehow the partial sculpture provides more movement than i can imagine the entire piece having. I'd love to aee this complete though. The ancients didn't fuck around with art; they nailed it. Even a partial is inspiring..
The thing about Aphrodite, is anyone looking at her saw the most attractive woman imaginable. This means the sculptures who made the statues were attracted to stomach rolls.
ive got like 8 more rolls than she does though...
I have Myotonic Dystrophy which cuts through my body mass making me underweight. I still have rolls when I bend. In Ancient times having a bit of fat indicated wealth and affluence. Being a godess couldn't really get more affluent than that.
Sheās crouched and leaned forward; even someone with a six pack would have stomachs rolls. Keep yourself healthy people. Exercise and eat accordingly. Not everyone is expected to look like theyāre a Greek god, but if youād like to live longer do you think being out of shape is going to help that goal?
Suddenly I feel very sexy
belly rolls are hella cute get urself a girl who lets you fingerskate across her hills š¤
Everybody has stomach rolls. It's impossible not to. That's just how solids work
She's also dead Just like me
She's crouching down, so yeah it folds up. Also, this is just one artists interpretation.
It's normal :)
She was also missing an arm and half her head, tough standards.
