It's weird, Sometimes when i'm looking girly, then I look in the mirror and see myself as somewhat attractive and a girl, however other days when I look like a boy still, I look in the mirror and think 'that boy is attractive, but it's not me'.
I know I'm not ugly but I don't feel sexy. And I get embarrassed by complements. I felt Sexy and confident Only for a small period of time when I was near my "BF", and I do stuff to myself so I look pretty for her. but now she is an ocean a part and I don't have the motivation.:icon_sad:
Physically I think (and have been told) that I am modestly above average looking, but then that is totally sidetracked by other negative factors. Mainly that personality-wise I am very analytical and speak in a very flat/monotone voice that is apparently impossible to distinguish any emotion from. I have been in equal amounts compared to being a robot and serial killer because of my methods of communicating.
I work out avidly and therefore have a lean, strong, rather muscular, S-shaped body which seems to get me more unwanted attention than I can manage - from men and women. I've taken notice that it's not uncommon for people (mainly young ones in their 20's) to curse out loud or otherwise use the lord's name in vain when they see and/or pass by me. As I work out for the maintenance of my personal health and not to impress others, this type of commentary and attention has lead to my becoming rather self-conscious and leary of new people who try to directly start off a conversation with me about my body or fitness in general. Growing up, I was often referred to as cute. In the last week, I've had four people call me beautiful. I just tell them 'whatever'. I look much younger than I am and when people bother to engage me, they are often surprised at my demeanor and level of intelligence, for what I guess is a variety of reasons. I've also been repeatedly told that I am intimidating. Most people don't approach me in any meaningful way. So do I find myself attractive? Well, I am a kind, gentle, loving, thoughtful, trustworthy, misunderstood soul. I find that to be attractive. I can also be distrustful and grumpy, which are unattractive. When I look into a mirror, I just see 'me'. Since that seems to be the only person who is truely interested in hanging out and spending time, does it matter if I feel that I'm attractive or even if others do?
I find myself extremely attractive in every way. Yes, I love myself. Therefore, I can love others. And even going by purely physical and objective standards, I believe I'm really quite handsome.

Hmm, that's weird. I had it public briefly the other day but it's currently set to friends only so not sure what's going on there...
I very rarely find myself attractive, but I think that's because I have self esteem issues. But there are times where I can say "I'm pretty good looking."
sumtimes im really hard.on myself for my imperfections other times im a bit cocky..i guess it just depends on the day and what im wearing..
My own body has disgusted me for sooooo many years, because of gender-dysphoria. But nowadays I'm so comfortable with myself thanks to some top surgery here, some hormones there, and also social stuff like being able to be open with my trans*identity among other people. Because of this I find myself VERY attractive these days, I think my body is perfect even if I haven't gone all the way in my transition! I have never felt this way, this comfortableness and piece. That makes me attracted to myself.
Totally depends on my day. I feel that *most* people have to out some effort into making themselves attractive. I have good days(where I just feel so darn cute that I want to stay out and show myself off to the world) and ugly days (where I want to stay in and hide under a rug. Today is something in between.
I don't think I'm hideous, but I definitely don't find myself as attractive as some people tell me I am. Apparently the smile does it, but I almost never see my own smile. Either way, I don't have a great body or face, but I'm certainly not ugly.
