Topic: Why do women have so many hang ups about showing their bodies?

Is it because of all of the hang downs? Women show their bodies all the time, granted there are variations in the topography but it's essentially all the same map.

It's because they are self-conscious about themselves and afraid someone won't like them based on how their body looks. This is understandable since so many guys base everything on looks, and you're very vulnerable when you're naked, but honestly, if the guy wants to see you naked, you can't be that bad, and most girls have nothing to worry about, but worry anyway because media and advertising place such a high value on having a perfect flawless body.

Women judge their bodies more than any man does.
Look at women's magazines, then look at men's magazines. The women are much thinner in the women's magazines.

We are self conscious creatures. We have been expected to live up to impossible standards, we are told no guys will look at us if we don't, and in reality we know other women will always be judging us.

Feminist bullshit. There are no impossible standards.

That's the point I was making exactly. They get nervous around men like we're gonna hold them to the same standard that they hold themselves to in magazines and advertisements. We're gonna be too excited that you're getting undressed for us to care about anything.

Because some men and woman think woman are ugly if the are above a size 6 or too skinny or have no boobs. So, we get shy. But some guys do like that. Its touch and go. Its the same with men. Us woman are just sensitive.
