I'm too manly/metal etc to ever feel sexy or lady like. I listen to metal, lift weights, and walk around with pitbulls and rottweilers.... I feel like a man 24/7.. I have no women friends really, maybe one. lol but I'm always with guys.. it sucks, I want to feel lady like sometime, but my life just doesnt allow it hahaSexy....what's that?... Not sure I've ever felt that way!

HAHA HOLY **** I JUST SAID THE SAME ****!0 -
Never used to be an issue.. I was big and i didn't care.. If people didn't like me for who I was or for my size never bothered me..
And now I'm always wondering what I can do to make myself look/feel better but I'm dreading its never going to be enough..
Does anyone else feel like this? Or do you accept who you are/what you look like and just work towards a healthier body?
This is me-in a nutshell. Every so often I see a glimpse of something I like-but its immediately followed by a "but I hate this more" and "I've worked so hard and I still don't see what I want to see"0 -

I go through the same thing constantly. I am a huge product junkie because of it. To a bad extent. Make up, skin care, etc. I don't know, I guess I;m always trying to find the secret or something that will fix my hang ups..
And sometimes even still, I struggle to feel sexy. Sometimes the right TV Show will do that for me.0 -
Not really. If i dont then i go get my hair cut or new clothes, go to the sex shop. Easy fix IMO!
I really wish they had a "like" button for comments! I would have liked this a million times over ^^0 -
I never had a problem with it, but recently struggling a lot with myself both physically and mentally.
It's probably because I think about people and generally the meaning of life more often than other people. Plus I can't help it, but be cheerful all the time next to others, when usually I'm feeling pretty bad.0 -
I recommend anyone who wants to feel accepted and sexy in their body join a burlesque class.
Or a belly dancing one!0 -
I feel pretty some days, but, never sexy. I struggle constantly with it. I don't feel right in my skin. I hate to see pictures of myself. My boyfriend thinks I am, and tells me so. I don't feel it though. I look in the mirror and cry. When I am in the shower, I cant look at myself.0

^ me too. have been for years. I accept who I am but hate it at the same time. I feel sad when women talk about what they wish they're men looked like or talk about what they find sexy sometimes b/c it makes me feel as if I'll never reach a point in a relationship with someone where she truly wants me and doesnt wish i looked like someone else.
Sad sad....0 -
Well I struggle to feel attractive but I'm not trying to be so sexy I guess... Sexy to me is one of those tricky terms. Basically I'm still trying to feel "pretty" first before I move on to trying to feel sexy.0

I struggle with it everyday! I've lost 30lbs but it doesn't change the fact my body is gross. I have a ton of extra skin and a torn muscle on my stomach. No matter what I do, only surgery will fix this. And it sucks that I will have to pay nearly $10,000 to find that happiness.
Maybe when I have this done I will have days where I can honestly say I feel sexy. And beautiful. Cause I don't feel beautiful either. It's a tough way to live everyday.0 -
Sometimes the stars align just right and you can't touch me I'm so sexy. Other times I'm insecure and judge myself based on what I think I should look like.0
-
YES!! Cuz I absolutely HATE my stomach and I associate a flat stomach with sexiness.....:ohwell:0

It changes from day to day. Sometimes I feel a million miles away from sexy, other days I wake up and feel really good about myself. It just depends on my mood, which in my opinion being sexy is definitely a state of mind. Even though my body has definitely changed for the better thus far, I am still self conscience about certain parts of it sometimes.
Sometimes I have an over inflated sense of ego about myself, I look at myself with that damn, you look good voice in my head. But other days I can look at myself when I am at my lowest mentally/emotionally and it's more like damn, you look like a big giant loser!
As always, we are our own worst enemies ...0 -
you always want more you feel great and receive tons of compliments and that high is what motivates (at least me) to continue to want to look pretty or sexy.0
