    Howdy.

    Got to thinking, after the Bewbs thread, that even though Abi has great lady bits, she mentioned that she has parts of her body that she doesn't like.

    Similarly, I said (as a bloke) that I've got bits of my body that I don't like showing off. I don't (or didn't) like my wrists. They are very slim. But I have found out to my delight, that slim wrists make your upper arms look bigger when you start working out. But I'd still like to have bigger, thicker wrists.

    I'm a bit pigeon chested. Working on it at the moment, trying to build up some muscle, but still not hugely happy.

    What's your bits your dislike?

    Who's Abi?

    Anyways for me it's my skin. The lot of it. Eczema does that to me. Bastard eczema.

    this is going to be a sad thread.

    hate my freckles most of all I suppose. everything i'm fairly ok with, good bum, smallish boobs, nice legs, good skin...yeah the freckles really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,443 ✭✭✭Bipolar Joe

    my looks are a bit intimidating for girls, not joking. i am not approached very often because im very handsome, but I always hear about them talking about me saying wow he is so hot when i am gone. girls always try to chat me up online, but they are too shy when we meet.

    also i think i am a bit too strong, can be intimidating for people. i am happy with my hair now, dyed it blonde :D

    I've dodgy ankles. And it's not just my opinion either - loads of others agree with me :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,698 ✭✭✭✭Princess Peach


    Good legs, good boobs, good hair, clear skin (fair as it is!)

    Need to lose a lot of weight, especially round the middle! Wouldn't mind a new nose and some new tooth either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,254 ✭✭✭Thatnastyboy


    Happy enough with what I have, I'm no calvin klein model now but Im happy,

    Weight that can easily be lost if it wasn't for my sheer love of all things junk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,080 ✭✭✭McChubbin


    I hate my stomach and my arms. I could stand to loose a fair bit of weight but I lack the motivation. Now, if I had a few hundred euro to spend on gym membership, I'd love to tone up those pesky areas so I could then go mad getting them decorated with elaborate tattoos.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar


    I don't there's anyone in the world who hasn't got any hang-ups about their body!

    I have acne around my face.

    I'm told that it will go away of it's own accord etc etc but it still bugs the hell outta me.

    And I'm 20 ffs, fuck off acne


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,054 ✭✭✭✭Professey Chin


    All around the stomach area mainly.
    Although compared to what it was a few months ago its a massive improvement.
    Its amazing what can give you the boot up the arse you need.

    I am a fat hoor trapped in an athletic body. I have no hang ups.

    That gives me some hope, it will feck off eventually.

    Belly. I've been cycling and playing rugby for the past year and my legs and upper body are lean and muscular, but my belly refuses to give up its protective layer of fat no matter what I do.

    Go get clearasyl(sp) face wash and the tube of cream,its is excellent the fash wash cleans so well and add the cream at night your acne should dissapear pretty soon.

    You what????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,762 ✭✭✭jive


    None of this will make sense to any of you until you get the physique and know whats its like. I know it sounds like im bragging, but think of it as driving a ferrari in real life. Why do people drive ferraris? to get attention, looks, exert dominance and superiority from the norm, and to get people talking..but it also inspires jealousy and haters on the person driving. Thats exactly what i experience IRL

    Same, except I'm 23 and it doesn't look like fcuking off any time soon. It's not really bad, but a pain in the arse no less. I don't let it bother me and I'm not self conscious about it.

    Other than that i'm happy with what I've got.

    Bit of a weird one. I'm fairly broad shouldered but also thin. Basically, if I done some exercises and tried to gain more muscle mass I'd be onto a winner.

    I've tried the pushups etc. but lose faith after a week or two. Someday I'll get some weights.

    Other than that not much. My skin can flare up every now and then and I can never seem to get a nice haircut :p

    I hate my skin. Have had acne the last 5 years and it isn't budging no matter what I do. I know I am my own worst critic looking and examining every single spot but I always feel as though people are staring at you even though they may not be. Its a killer mentally.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,949 ✭✭✭Samich


    My big funny shaped head, my nose, my lips, my eyes are the only thing I'm happy with.

    My body. fat

    The belly I'm happy with the rest.If I'd will power I'd shift it ...its all dietry since its just a fat store.

    I burn food off way too fast, so I can't put on weight. I'm serious thin, and I can't do anything about it. I'm sure it'll be a different story completely in ten years, but it's slightly weird seeing that any girl I'm attracted to has more meat on them than I do (Not that I'm saying I have a thing for fat burds.)

    Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

    People, why worry about your body? God made you who you are, the fine beings we are today.

    I once knew a lady named Aretha. She was so paranoid about her body. You see, my dear Aretha was fond of chicken wings.

    Anyway, one lazy hot day in Western Mississippi, me and Aretha were sat in a corn field. Aretha was eating corn straight from the earth as we talked about different things; the Kennedy assassination. Jimi Hendrix.

    Suddenly Aretha burst into tears. I wasn't sure what to do, she was hysterical. "It's my weight Morgan, it's my weight". I held her, comforted her and reassured her she was beautiful, as beautiful as God intended. The wind picked up and scattered dust across us. It was so warm that day.

    I haven't heard from Aretha in many years. I pray that she is happy with her image, although image isn't everything. Aretha was beautiful as she was.
