Body Talk! Sexy or...?

    AH constantly repeats skinny and fat threads (We just had the below size 8), with OPs proclaiming the horrors of being either. Do you have pride in the way you look, or do you slump your shoulders and suffer the abuse of others?

    What's your body self-image?

    Maybe use a person, animal, place, or thing to describe yourself?

    OK, I'll go first...
    My boatmate (I live on a boat) calls me "Cat," because I stretch a lot. I'm athletically thin (into two sports), and can run pretty fast if I get into trouble. So maybe I resemble a Cheetah, because I'm built for speed and not comfort! (And if you have a problem with that, bring pillows)

    I just get called "The Fonze" cos I'm so relaxed and cool and stuff... apparently.

    Oh and constantly wearing a leather jacket, owns the jukebox and slicked back hair. Think I'm lost in time travel.

    I'm like a Rhino.

    basically...

    not very good looking, pretty big, very strong..and proud of it

    :D

    I'm like a pelican crossed with an overenthusiastic puppy.

    I'll be happy if I can lose a bit more weight. Lose weight, tighten up the muscles again, won't look too bad. Need to define my frame a wee bit as of now though. Still got weight hanging over from Leaving Cert year and a relatively inactive first year of college. Next year however, new regime and we'll see what we can make of me.

    I have the potential to have a pretty good build. However, a love of beer and fast food has been my enemy in the past. I have recently tried getting into a bit more shape and it is paying off a bit I must say.

    Lion!

    I generally don't back down (probably should more often), bit of a force to be reckoned with, and have a bit of a mane to boot! :D

    /edit: RAWR!!!

    If a red setter, a duck, an owl managed to create an illicit lovechild in ancient egypt. I'd look like the Mummie

    People always liken me to a bear.

    Big and strong but cuddly too.

    And general gorgeousness about the face! :eek::pac:

    I dunno really, don't think I resemble an animal. I'm not the fastest, not build to run, more brute force but very slow to anger. therefore rarely seen... I is smart though, pierced and tattood to boot.

    Hmm ancient celtic high chief or something? o.0

    meh I am me :D cliché or what :pac:

    Shrek (do Ogres count as animals...?!):rolleyes:

    The green part may not be entirely true... although this does not affect your statutory rights....

    Bear.

    Big, strong, and likes to sleep half the year :p

    Wouldn't mind better definiteion on the old six-pack, do a reasonable amount of weight training, and have a broad build anyway, so I get away with carrying a little extra weight.

    Have been told I hug like a bear (do bears hug?) and a few ex's have referred to me as being bear-like in several respects :D

    EDIT: According to that "AnimalInYou" test I'm a Tiger, a lion, and a rhino....all of which exhibit traits I identify with :D

    Try to imagine a ferret that leaped off a jumbo jet just as it was hitting high speeds, and mashed into a feisty three way orgy between an eel, a donkey, and some sort of formerly domestic animal. Just imagine that. Doesn't bear any resemblance to me or my self image, mind you, but thats some mental picture ha?

    I've seen you around the town.

    I'm more of a bear.
    I sometimes go down to the Liffey and catch Salmon with my bare bear hands.
