Do you have a big nose?

I’ve always believed that I have a perfect nose. Everyone else in my family of origin thinks they have a huge nose, although their noses look fine to me.

Today at the eye doctor I had to stare into a mirror for a long time, and my nose kept getting bigger and bigger. Now I’m freaked out. What if my nose is starting to grow again in my old age like my mother’s did?

It turns out that thinking you have a big nose is distressing. No wonder family members were always going on about it.

How about you?
Do you think you have a big nose?
Do you really think you have a big nose?
Have others ever suggested that you have a big nose?
How much of your precious time on earth do you spend thinking about your nose?

I’m Jewish. I don’t have a hooked nose, or one that looks stereotypically Jewish, but it is big. It fits my face, and I wouldn’t change it. I think it’s one of the things that makes me “look Jewish.” People peg me for Jewish on first sight all the time.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with a big nose. I’ve seen ugly small noses, and I think the actress Paget Brewster has a downright sexy nose. I’m glad she chose not to bob it. She is a very beautiful woman.

Large-ish, I guess. Nobody comments on it.

My isn’t small, but nobody comments on it. I don’t think about it much.

Nope, the nose is fine. Give me a holler when you want to talk about ears.

My wife’s the one who’s Jewish, but I’m the one with the big nose. Not humongous, but bigger than average. I don’t find them unattractive on women at all.

My nose keeps getting in the way whenever I blow bubbles with gum. Either I have a big nose or my face is too flat.

I am Jewish too and my nose isn’t too big and it not hooked . Some people think I am Hispanic b/c of my speech defect . I was told I had a beautiful Hispanic accent by a guy who was Hispanic ! :smack: I was speechless when I heard that .

Everything about me is big - feet, hands, wrists, head, hair, belly-butt-boobs - except my nose, ears and mouth. In fact my ears and mouth are actually tiny.

Oh no - maybe my nose IS big, compared to my ears and mouth??

I think my nose is somewhat large and it’s also somewhat oddly shaped. I had a doctor once tell me my nose looked like a boxer’s nose, like one that had been broken a bunch of times. I’ve never broken it, gee thanks Doc!:slight_smile:

Were you on The Acid? If so, stop being on The Acid.

It is. Not only do your nose and ears never stop growing, your face shrinks and sags and your hair recedes in just the wrong enough ways to emphasise this even more. It sucks, but it’s happening to us all, so you’re in good company.

My nose is not large, but it is a bit of an unusual shape, which genetically I blame my mother’s side of the family for. Nobody has ever remarked to me anything unusual about my nose, so I don’t let it bother me. But I am aware of it when I see pictures of myself.

Male here and I think I’d be more handsome if my nose were a shade bigger.
What makes it worse is my gf’s celebrity crush is Adrian Brody :o

(I’m just kidding; I’m too old to care about (or think I have any chance of achieving) good looks)

I’m able to grow a mustache, so I guess my nose isn’t throwing that much shade.

If I walked into a wall, it wouldn’t be the first thing to hit. :wink:

You have Torgo-like kneecaps?

I have a regular white girl nose. Very slightly long, and (based on photos) the tip of the nose appears to slightly turn down when I laugh.

It used to be totally straight, but after getting sinus surgery, a little depression developed midway down the bridge. I’d like to “fix” it, but don’t want to spend the money and take the risks of surgery. I might try the new non-surgical method – a doc injects filler in the divot area. Lasts 3-6 months. A doctor friend does Botox and is learning to do this. His Botox is GOOD (I’ve seen it).

My nose is so big I have to wear button-down shirts. I have to drive a Jeep Wranger with a fold-down windshield, and when I go through a toll booth, they charge me for two cars.

I’m fine with it, though. Most of the mountain-climbers I’ve met while sleeping on my back have been really nice people.

Mine’s not particularly protruding, but I’ve been told it’s wide for someone who’s descended from Northern European folks.

Yes and no. I basically have a baby nose. No bridge whatsoever, but it’s both flared and upturned/pointy at the base. Can’t properly wear glasses. I always hated my nose as a kid (other kids would tease me and call me “Cabbage Patch” and “n-word nose”) but as I grew up I gradually stopped caring. Now I like it.
