This question mainly applies to naturally attractive women who almost always get glances and eye contact from others in social places every day of their lives.

Does this intimidate them and/or make them feel insecure, compared to the average looking person? And does this insecurity lead them to question their own beauty and subsequently develop an impulse to buy and wear nice clothes always, spend more time and money on grooming (unaware that this will generate even more attention)?

I.e. Does it make them develop some kind of borderline personality where they must make an effort to look good/dress good in order to justify the glances and silent attention in social places.

On the other hand, if they are not feeling good about their looks or what they are wearing on a particular day, and they are still getting all the glances (because of the fact that they are so naturally beautiful and couldn't look normal if they tried), do they feel unattractive and indimidated?

some can be, look at halle berry she used to be very insecure. i also think that is somewhat true, because girls can be jealous and catty so if they see something they dont have they will try and bring you down to there level. some people are smart enough to not buy into that bull. we all should just leanr to have confidence

This is a hard question to answer because there are so many variations. I consider myself to be very attractive physically to the opposite sex. I get looked at and judged on a daily basis by both men and women, it is hard to take sometimes as people can be very critical. I have a boyfriend who takes me out everywhere and everyone knows who he is and as the woman on his arm I have to be perfect and immaculate looking from the time I wake up until the time I go to sleep. He loves the attention that I get and the compliments that he gets about me. It kind of helps his self esteem as well as mine. If you were to see me on the street you would think that I didn't have a care in the world and that my life appeared to be perfect. Society has put a lot of pressure on women to look good and to perfect their appearance, I hate to say it but I have fallen into that myself. I go to the salon twice a month, the gym every other day, see a personal trainer and shop in all kinds of places to have the next hot item. Am I insecure that if I don't do these things my boyfriend will leave me? Maybe but that is just one of my insecurities, there are many more down to what my toe nail polish color is and if it matches my outfit.

I can tell you that it is hard to find someone when you are above average looking. Men are intimidated by women that look like me or assume that we are taken and in many cases that is not true. I was lucky to find my guy and he was amazed that I was single. No matter what your insecurities are at some point you have to face them head on and you will realize that the only opinion that matters is your own and you will start to see yourself differently, maybe the way others see you already.

Personally I think it's the other way around.. I'm quite insecure, I'm the tall, skinny, flat chested type. I put this down to for the majority of my teenage years, I was best mates with a shorter, gorgeous, curvy, booby girl and she knew everyone thought she was beautiful. And for many years, every single guy I ever liked chose her over me. Which I don't take as her being a better person because she treated everyone quite badly and manipulated others, I took it as guys chose her looks before looking at her personality. She called ME the names, she always said big boobs are better and that was the reason no guys liked me and purposely went out to get any guy I liked to prove the point. Girls are bitchy :/

You have to understand something - the naturally beautiful women you refer to in your post are born that way, they dont know what it is like to be average, normal, or ordinary. Hence, what could be intimidating to you would be normal for them.
I must say one thing: ALL women, beautiful or not, get stared at. Its huMAN nature. Observe for yourself: watch as a woman passes by and a man, or small group of men are standing by. They will look at her by default, check out her figure, face, and see if she makes eye contact with them. If she is dressed provocatively, there will be more stares. I dont include older or elderly women who look and act older middle aged. The ones who LOOK like they have five kids and have cooked thousands of meals for a large family.
By the time most girls are young adults they get used to this predatory feature of men that is a passive act.
You may be surprised but a not-so-beautiful girl can easily get as much attention as a pretty one, just by the way she dresses, walks and the personality she exudes. As I said, men are predatory by nature and they will respond to this animal instinct.
If a beautiful woman gets a lot of stares, she will get used to it and start to even ignore it, or blank it out.
Some days irrespective of the crowd, she will just put on sweatpants and a baggy t-shirt and got out with a bad hair day, so no, they dont get obssessive about looking good JUST to justify the attention. If you are tired, busy or just bored, you wont give a s*** how you look.
But if she is on a date, going to a mall or meeting her friends beautiful women will make that effort to justify attention that she knows she will get.
She looks forward to this attention, she expects it and enjoys it. She basks in it. She does not shy away or get insecure about it. Trust me, women love positive attention.

The attention from men (admiring glances) and women (catty looks) are both an affirmation of her youth, beauty and promise. Since childhood every girl dreams of being beautiful when she grows up, its what she learns and sees on tv, family comments and fairytales. She doesnt get insecure about growing up and not being good looking, she would be insecure if she WASNT. :))

Hope this helps!
