First of all, I understand your feelings very well. Facing inappropriate remarks from colleagues, especially negative comments about appearance, can indeed make people feel uncomfortable and hurt. As a doctor, your professional ability and care for patients are the most important. Appearance should not be the criterion for evaluating you. However, since you want to know some possible code words in order to better identify and deal with these situations, the following are some common code words or euphemisms that may be used to describe poor appearance.： 1. **"Ordinary appearance”**: Although it is literally neutral, it may imply that the appearance is not outstanding in some contexts. 2. **"Characteristic”**: This word is sometimes used to describe people whose appearance is not in line with mainstream aesthetics. 3. **“Raunchy”**: It may suggest that the other party thinks your appearance or dress is not exquisite enough. 4. **"Unique temperament”**: Although it may be a compliment, in some cases it may also imply that the appearance does not meet conventional standards. 5. **“Looks are recognizable”**: This term may suggest that the appearance is more special, but it is not necessarily a positive evaluation. 6. **"Simple-looking"**: This word is usually used to describe the appearance of simple, not gorgeous, and may suggest that it is not attractive enough. 7. **“Appearance is not prominent”**: It directly implies that there is nothing particularly attractive about appearance. 8. **“Looks have a sense of age”**: It may indicate that the appearance is old-fashioned or outdated. 9. **"Looks have a story”**: Although it sounds interesting, in some cases it may suggest that the appearance is flawed or imperfect. 10. **"Appearance is challenging”**: This term may suggest that appearance is not in line with mainstream aesthetics, and may even be a bit “difficult”. ### How to deal with this situation： 1. **Maintain self-confidence**: Your value is far more than your appearance. As a doctor, your professional ability and care for patients are the most important. 2. **Direct communication**: If these remarks make you feel uncomfortable, you can politely but firmly tell your colleagues that you don't like this kind of evaluation and hope they respect you. 3. **Seek support**: If the situation is serious, you can consider reporting to the hospital's management or human resources department for help. 4. **Self-care**: In the face of this situation, it is very important to take care of your emotions and mental state. You can consider communicating with friends, family members or professional counselors for support. Remember, appearance does not define a person's value. Your professional achievements and contribution to society are truly worthy of attention. I hope you can get the respect and recognition you deserve in the workplace.
