| When you are at the beach or the pool, do you look at the women and pick them apart?
Like, do you notice their cellulite and stretch marks and various lumps and think "Why is she here in a swim suit?"
My husband says that he doesn't and guys don't think that way, but I think he's just trying to make me feel better about wearing a swimsuit in public. He's like "All I notice is 'Wow, look at that cherry butt'" (which is another question in itself, do all guys know the difference between a cherry butt and a pear butt? because I'm having the hardest time grasping what he's talking about, I don't see a difference?)

| What the hell is a cherry butt? I have never heard that before in my life, I have heard of women being apple shaped or pear shaped but cherry? | |

| Somebody has to be really outlandish (to the point of trying to stand out) for me to pay them much mind. | |

| I'd be lying if I said I never did it, but for the most part I don't. Every now and then someone will just happen to stand out in a very unflattering way, and you can't help but to negatively notice how they look. | |

Okay, like regular every day people wearing a normal bathing suit? Or people wearing things that you would see on a website making fun of people for wearing really unflattering things? I know that women are super critical and pick each other apart, I'm just wondering if men do that to women too. | |

(unless I'm in writer mode and then I'm probably thinking up some insane scenarios that could happen at the beach. But that's beside the point. ) okay good. I'm just embarrassed because I haven't worn a bathing suit since before the twins were born...And I'm not going to have them there as my beard. I'm going to be all alone with no excuse for why I look the way I do. When my kids are around I feel like people cut me a little slack because I have five kids. I rationally know that it doesn't matter, but I'm still a little scared. | |

| Again, another question out of my realm.
I am a guy, and I do people watch, but being a nudist who hangs out at a nude beach full of the whole spectrum of human physique, I am not critical of anyone.
Oh yeah, I will notice the real knock out gorgeous guy or girl, but that is just eye candy for momentary enjoyment but I will more likely be talking to ppl like me, with age, wrinkles and less than perfect physique. | |

More if the person is trying to wear something that is inappropriate for them. If you weighed 250 lbs and were wearing a string bikini, yeah I’m probably going to be thinking, “Well, I guess she must not have any mirrors in her house.” But I’m also thinking the same thing about a guy who’s so fat you can’t tell he’s wearing a Speedo. But “imperfections” like cellulite, etc.? No, I don’t judge. I ain't perfect either. Hold your head up high! | |

| Alright. I may be gay, but I think I can still say something on this:
Girls get dressed up, do their hair, wear make-up and obsess over their appearance, because they know that other girls will be watching. Men don't care. Men aren't the ones keeping words like slut, bitch, ho, and whore alive-- it's women. | |

Men aren't the ones keeping words like slut, bitch, ho, and whore alive-- it's women. haha, I was wondering about that. I know that girls judge, but I also know that with girls, all I have to do is mention my five kids and they "get" it, kwim? A lady will be like, "you have five kids? You look great!" I may not look good for a teenager or a lady in her 20's, but I know I'm doing alright for a 31 yo with five kids, especially twins. But I was worried about the guys... Now I found out that the hotel has the spa/sauna in the ladies locker room though so I don't have to worry about it! Although, I didn't have to worry about it in the first place, I realize, because it's stupid to worry about what other people think of me, especially of my appearance, which is the one thing that I can't really change. | |

This goes for me too. I don't play form judge when I see people at the pool, or physically pick them apart. Usually if I make a negative assessment, it has more to do with the way they're carrying themselves. | |
