"Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood."

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 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!)
