    To me, what's offensive or embarrassing is the way people act rather than how they look. Treating yourself and others with kindness and acceptance is what's important--not whether you have fat or scars or no tan. YMMV.

    If only you could rub that thinking off a little around my part of the world.

    Personally, I find a man who's a bit "flabby" and who is comfortable in his own skin to be more attractive, much more than I do someone who is "athletic & toned". Give me 'down to earth & flabby' over 'rock hard abs' any day!

    Of course, finding a man who can accept a gal who is a bit flabby as well is even more difficult!

    Kudos to you lads who can do what makes you comfortable!

    Cheers to you lassie! Unfortunately (for you), I've already found my life-mate; but, rest assured that if you're still looking, there are certainly more men like me who value their women for more than their conformity to prevailing society's (unreasonable) standards of 'beauty', out there.

    After all, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." No one should be afraid to bare themselves among their fellow humans, and least of all before a mirror, in the pursuit of simple comfort. Body image is fundamental to self-esteem IMHO. With sufficient self-esteem, the rude comments of others should bead like water on a duck's back. I don't need to see you to know that you are a beautiful person.

    By extension, I feel the same way you do about people who are comfortable in their skins despite not being models of athleticism; therefore, I'm confident that if you work on your own self-esteem in that regard you will doubtless attract others of a similar ilk (among the usual hordes of degenerates).
