Not thin enough. Not pretty enough. Too pretty for them (“she must be vain”). Too Christiany here. Not Christiany enough there. Too young for this group. Too old for that group. Too conservative for those. Too liberal for them. Not enough money to run with this bunch. Not experienced in their area.
