Adopting an untrue belief, to avoid the pain of cognitive dissonance that comes from facing a harsh, unpleasant reality.  
 
Usually used to by [[lookist]]s to point out that any effort other than [[plastic surgery]] is merely a [[coping mechanism]] and not productive toward finding a partner.  The insulting nature of the word lends it's use to trolls seeking to make others feel bad for daily activities.

'''Example:'''
Coping: "Yes, I did loose both my legs due to a car accident, which lead to my wife divorcing me. But I can honestly say that my life is better now, I've learned to appreciate the small things."
Facing harsh reality: "After I lost my legs, my wife divorced me, and I have little to no chance in dating anymore. It's over."
