I am stumped as to why so many here are insecure about their looks.
In my opinion most are what I see as normal to thin and some outright skinny.
Yet they see themselves as fat.
I am fat, most likely the fattest person at LindaLand.
I do not value my worth by that.
If someone can only see that, then they are too shallow for me.
And age, some here here make fun of "old" folks.
And some complain of being old too when they are not.
Why is age so important to many?
I am pushing 60, so what?
Add in that I have facial hair and am comfortable with it; yet folks
take it upon themselves to advise me how to get rid of it.
LOL! I actually wish it were more not less!
I am an androgyne/intersex so why should I try to please the
general male/female populace?
Yet again folks take it upon themselves to advise me how to be more feminine.
Ugh.
So I love myself and enjoy my own company of myself;
and feel compelled to avoid most folks because "they"
judge me based on my appearance;
or want something from me but have little to no intentions of reciprocity.;
or want to change me.
Ugh.
I just do not want to waste my time with shallow and immature people.
Their viewpoints/opinions on looks are worthless to me.
No sense in trying to please such jerks.
So in a nutshell;
What am I insecure about?
Trusting folks.
However that is not based on any insecurity of my personal self.
I do love and value myself.
I have learned that too often people are not honest.
I am baffled at how often I give my trust and have gotten screwed over.
So from hereon it would take a lot for me
to trust anyone here completely and in my offline life.
I do not see that as insecurity but as having learned that there are
too many folks who cannot be 100% true to me nor even sadly, themselves.

There is no such thing as normal.
There is no such thing as regular.
There are many people who are part of society.
There are few who are integral to society.
We are socially conditioned from an early age to try and fit in with this dreamt up notion of a "regular, normal, person".

You take the leader of a country down, that hurts, but someone will take their place.
You take the person who runs the media down, someone will fill their place.

The things that I think are integral to society, are showing kindness and compassion, regardless of religion, race, financial standing, or any other discriminatory factor. We are all part of humanity. There are many people across the world, who look down on those who are less fortunate than themselves for whatever reasons, or turn a blind eye to the suffering of others.

If you want to get the most glaring look at how much people lie, hide their insecurities, or try to fit in. Just look at the majority of people on dating websites, and indeed in the real world. It is highly unlikely that you will straight out tell someone that you enjoy cheese tasting for example, traveling to different estates where they make different types and strengths of cheese and sampling them, much like wine tasting. Generally because the societal pressure sees it as odd. Think about how computer gaming used to be a minority and those people were typically shunned in someway or it was kept quiet. Now the majority of men in a certain age range will most likely have or do participate in some form of computer gaming, and society no longer deems it a negative thing.

Everytime I least expect it,
my stomach makes all kinds of loud sounds.

You dont even want to know the shame I felt when my husband took me to
a Broadway play and people are uber quiet watching the show,
then all of a sudden out of nowhere
my stomach starts to make loud rumbling an gurgling noises,
and having everyone around look right at you.
I wish I didnt have this problem

The technical name for the noises made by
a grumbling stomach is borborygmi (borborygmus is the singular form).
The term comes from the Greek word borborugmos, an example of onomatopoeia
(a word created to imitate a sound). Borborygmi illustrates what
stomach growling might sound like in word form.

In some cases, excessive gurgling and grumbling
may be a sign of an upset stomach or a medical condition like irritable bowel syndrome.
In these cases, there are usually a number of additional
gastrointestinal complaints accompanying a growling stomach.

Guys aren't shallow anymore than women are shallow.. and actually no one really gives a damn in the end.

Look at all the couples walking around - How many of them are supermodels?

lol

There is not a single person in the entire world who is not insecure about something, who does not wish for something to be different, no matter how tiny.

I don't know about that. I'm very aware of what I see as my flaws. I'm very open about them as well - I could care less what anyone thinks because I know I have plenty of qualities as well... and generally I don't actually feel insecure.

When I'm in a bad mood or negative - I feel sad or depressed about something... but I seldom feel 'insecure'.
