Woe, be unto you who should see MomTard at her kid's (kids'?) soccer game(s):
The other parents probably were whispering, "She must be that mother with seven children. No wonder she looks so bad." It really isn't fair to blame my uglies on the kids.
It sounds to me like she does blame her "uglies" on the kids. Of course, that's not fair.
It also sounds like what unbelievable says in a comment:
Sometimes I fix my hair & wear makeup but more often than not I don't. I can honestly say that I don't feel self-conscious either way. Just so you know, the majority of *normal* GROWNUP people don't either.
It's a shame that your self esteem is so low, maybe some counseling would help!
Of course, MomTard comes back and says she doesn't care about what other people think. After all, that entire post was about
how people feel self-conscious when no one else is paying attention
Riiiiiiiight.
So if we combine her first statement on how having to deal with the kids makes it difficult for her to face the world, and her second statement about how people feel self-conscious that leads us to this: MomTard is saying its her kids' fault that she feels self-conscious about her appearance.
Last I checked, it was MomTard who was in control of her feelings - not anyone else.

am not too eager to introduce myself
Low self esteem.
I didn't feel a need to get all dressed up for these people who I don't know
Denial of low self esteem.
I suddenly became self-conscious of my appearance.
No one else can become self-concious. It's you that is self-concious.
The other parents probably were whispering
Mild paranoia
It really isn't fair to blame my uglies on the kids.
Your low self esteem is your kids fault? Or you think other people think you are ugly because you have seven kids?
I was afraid of seeing someone I did know
Why? More low self esteem.
you'd realize that the only one who cared about my appearance was me
but you were saying lots of other people were concerned about it. Look up "projection". Then get some help for your self esteem.
I asked MomTard if vanity is a sin. Maybe she'll write a piece on that.
