Your least favourite body part?

from JoeUser Forums
I wrote an article not long ago about my love for my boobs, and how much I loved them. During a conversation with a friend today, we were discussing why women beat themselves up so much, and had so many things they hated about themselves. I won't go into detail about this, as he already bagged that article. I will just touch on it slightly, that women have so many people telling them they should look a certain way, it is difficult not to feel inferior, when you aren't quite up to standard.

Now I'm not a huge fan of my bum, but I can just about live with it. Currently I have a huge problem with my legs, they are horrible, horrible little things. I am only small 5'2 maybe. So my legs are practically none existant. They are short, and pastey, and so unattractive. I see these women walking around with these gorgeous, long tanned legs, and I feel just like a runt. Even when I'm walking alongside someone tall I end up running beside them just to keep up. I feel the need to hide them, trousers, jeans, whatever. because they are horrible. I have had men say they think small girls are cute. HA! That's until they see them legs, and see how awful they are. Then they see some foxy lady, with a skirt up to her ass, and she's just all leg, *drool*. I want long legs! Is it to much to ask for. If I wanted bigger boobs, or a smaller nose I could have surgery, but how exactly do I get gorgeous legs?

Just for reference, I'm not actually fickle enough to get surgery for anything. My shining personality more than makes up for my awful legs ( I hope, hehe), so I'll just have to live with them I guess. Well I've shared my least favourite body part, now it's your turn JU, spill....

I hate my belly. Yuck. I don't have one of those stretched out model-type belly buttons . . . mine is just sad. My belly used to be flat and smooth until I had kids. Now I have a little buddha belly just beneath my belly button. I mean, you can actually grab ahold of it. It's nothing but flab. I am unable to get rid of it, and even when I have lost weight and become relatively small, it is still not bikini material. I envy women with those taut tummies. AND I'm fair skinned so my tummy is porcelain white instead of golden tan, AND I have pregnancy stretch marks so there are little silvery zebra stripes running up my belly. Arrrgh! Lucky for me my husband loves me anyways . . . and it's technically his fault I have this belly anyways. I've got more body gripes if you want 'em . . . this is just for starters.

btw . . . I'll bet you are adorable with your cute little short legs!

I like my right cheek the least. No particular reason.

My nose. My big grecian nose. I hate it. I've thought about getting it fixed (which is sort of like getting a tooth out in America) but I have neither the money or desperation. Hell, maybe it makes me more unique or something... And I guess it could be worse, its not hooked or anything, just a bit fat at the end.

Thanks for the comment sweedie. I've been kind of busy and I know I've neglected this lately, but I am trying to catch up.

I have missed the select few I really admire here, and you know you are one of them.

Hehe, this made me giggle! You've had kids hunny, you have good reason! My Mums got one of these toning things, that you just stick on your tum, and sit and do things, and it vibrates away. Personally I'm not convinced, but she swears by it!

AND I'm fair skinned so my tummy is porcelain white instead of golden tan,


*sigh* I'm the same! I hate it! I want a nice lovely tan, and instead I look like a paste ball ( I just made that up, but it sounds yucky!)

Lucky for me my husband loves me anyways . . .


Aww, yes that's all that counts, and how could he not hunny!

I've got more body gripes if you want 'em . . . this is just for starters.


Ohhh go for it, I have many more too, I just don't want to appear to be a whinging mare, but with a little encouragement I'll be more than happy to share!

I'll bet you are adorable with your cute little short legs!


*blushes* Adorable and cute, yes. Hot and sexy, no.

I like my right cheek the least. No particular reason.


I hope your left cheek makes up for it

Dyl, I am sooooooo pleased to see you here, I have missed you more than you'll believe! I hope everything is going good for you, and I will be hopping over to your blog to see what you have been upto! I am sure your nose is adorable, and you are very unique, so don't worry!

I'm honoured you think that, and you know I feel exactly the same way! Welcome back hunny bunny xxxx

How long have you got? I could be here all night and day...But the thing I've learned in my ripe old age of 26 is that the parts of my anatomy that I am most critical of are the parts that get the most compliments--it's weird...I hate my boobs, they are just too freaking big, it's like having a bookshelf --absolutely ridiculous (and yet my female friends always tell me they'd trade me--if we could do it, I'd take them up on the offer). I have enormous calf muscles that I would love to get rid of, but some how they only get larger (and just last night I got a compliment on my legs)...I could go on forever...

Oh, as for the pasty white thing--I tan easily, but i spend the summers answering the nosy, stupid "do you frequent a tanning bed?" question-- "Nope, it's natural, you see, there's this thing called the sun..."

The grass is always greener...

I really don't like the white line stretchmarks Elana left me with.

But pre-that -- actually I'm pretty happy -- Of course I still complain with my friends when they bitch about their own bodies but there's actually nothing to bitch about - Pregnancy made me lose weight (in fact I'm going to the doctor about that tomorrow) I think I have that budda tummy that Texas is referring to, sometimes I hate my nose -- I really hate having my photo taken if I'm wearing my glasses because I dislike what it does to my face shape -- but If I'm completely honest -- There's nothing wrong with me

Apart from those fading purple/white stretch marks -- damn babies

I am pretty happy with my rig, it gets me through day to day and does a good job at it.

Doesn't push every girls buttons (I dont imagine any guys does), but that's their loss

Ahh I too have big boobs. I love them though. Does that sound terribley vein? I don't know, but I do love my boobs . I am so jealous of your natural tanning! Even in the sun, I don't get a nice tan

Ahh this is what happens when you have babies, huh. I'm glad you like yourself though, it's a good way to be hunny. I hate having my picture taken full stop, it makes me pity the people who have to look at me full time!

Hehe, if your body doesn't do it for them, I'm sure your charm and wit will, hehe

I'm generally happy with what I have, I just enjoy a good bitch, hehe! I have such a thing for Tony.....

Thanks for the comments guys xxx

I would say my testicles. Allways hanging loose from my shorts on hot days...

Hmm... Overall I'm pretty happy with my body, other than my belly button. I got it pierced in High School to impress my then boyfriend, and it got infected and you can still see where the hole was, and its really weird looking. My boobs could be a little bigger too. Charlie (my fiance) says they're just right, but I don't think they are. But, I'm not unhappy about anything really, just discontented a bit, that's all.

You could always chop them off

I got my nose done in high school, and I have a tiny scar there now, I hate it!

Yeh same here!

I don't like my pinkie toe... It likes to try and hide under the "ring" toe all the time and I despise cowards!!! Show yourself pinkie toe!!!

I don't like my boobs.  They used to be big - really big when I was breastfeeding.  Now I've lost weight, and they're a bit droopy and sad looking.  They're also lopsided.  I had a lump removed from one, and now it's significantly smaller than it's partner. 


Apart from that, I guess I'm pretty satisfied.  I just learned to live with my flaws and imperfections, and to be honest I really don't notice them much anymore.

I had an op on my pinky toe when I was ickle. So now it's slightly crooked and yucky!

Dharma it's so nice to see you here!

I so know what you mean about boobs. I lost weight too, and have the same problem! Plus my left is alot bigger than my right. Not so I look like a circus freak, but I know it!

They are what makes you, you.

I REALLY can't stand my legs. I could do calf workouts till day's end and I'd still have "cankles" (when the calf and ankle merge). My legs are so oddly shaped it drives me nuts. It's haunted me into wearing jeans and long pants even when it's relatively warm.

Other than that, I'm good. I think my nose is a little big, but it's all fo-sheezy.

I don't like my mouth. It seems proportionately small on my face. My lips aren't thin--they just don't go wide, a la Julia Roberts (well, maybe that's too wide). They're just sort of ... short, vis-a-vis my nose. Also my mouth tends to look frowny if I'm not smiling--no matter my mood--and people think I'm in a bad mood, so I get told to "Smile!" a lot. Pet peeve of mine, really. (As if you have any right to go up to someone and make them be in a better mod. grr.)

Cankles! I love it. Is that a real word?

See with my awful legs, I SHOULD do that, but I like skirts, so...I just make people suffer the pain of looking at my legs!

hehe, this made me giggle! This is a new one for me, mouth, though I suppose some folk like a pout don't they! I agree people say stupid things sometimes! Oh you told me to smile, ok then! I will now smile like an idiot! Ahh some poeple....

Yes, we should all go around changing people's "mods." (Stupid bleepin' keyboard! Can't spell!)
