Afraid to show my body.?
Answers:
There is nothing wrong with being modest. But you have to look at this from another view. Society has put this major view on nudity as having something to do with sex,sex, sex, all the time. We are taught this usually as far back as when we were children. Some parents are more strict on it than others, some not. My parents were very strict on it, you don't show your body to anyone, you don't look at anyone else's body. You don't talk about your private parts, etc. And what this does is cause a major lack of respect for the human body. What it does is cause a shameful view of the naked body. The naked body is now viewed as something sexual and therefore shameful. Religion played a big part in this view of our society. In reality, there is nothing shameful or dirty about the human body. We ALL have these parts, our bodies ALL work the same. Our human bodies are beautiful. I try to look at it from an artist's point of view. When an artist draws a naked body, they are not doing it with lust in their mind, they are doing it with a respect and an eye for the beauty of the naked body. There is nothing wrong with being modest at all, but be that way because you respect your body, not because you are ashamed of it. And when the time comes where you need to reveal your body to someone, such as going to the doctor, do not be ashamed. The doctor is viewing you in the same reasons that the artist would be. They see naked bodies all the time. They see the naked body in more of medical terms in respect for it.We all have these parts, and they are here to make sure they are working correctly.It's the way we are made, and they are here to help you, so don't be ashamed if you have to reveal something to your doctor. I am a female, and I can say that I was this way, also in the past, especially when I was pregnant and had to go to the gynecologist regularly. I would have loved it if we had a female doctor in our town, but we didn't. Over time, though, I became more used to it, and I came to the realization of what our bodies actually are, and how amazing and beautiful they are. I would not go around flaunting myself of course, but I have a different view of the human body now, and I am not ashamed of the naked body. I see it as something natural. We are ALL this way. And if you are a little shy because your body is not equal to that of a model, you can't let that affect your respect for it, either. We are all different. If we went by society's view of how a naked body should look, we the majority of us would be considered abnormal and unattractive. When you go to a beach, you will see all kinds of shapes and sizes. Be happy with the way you are. Your body has served you well for all these years. You don't have to flaunt yourself to still view it with love and respect, and not be ashamed of it. :)
Its ok that you dont do that alot of people do that
Nothing wrong, I feel pretty much the same way.
You are nuts. Every one's body is different. No one is special. You are the result of god's creation. A pretty body is to be shared. If it isn't pretty, then you should work on it.
There is nothing wrong with you. You just have not jet learned how nice your body is. Once you get over your insecurities about your self. Sometimes it only takes a few words of appreciation or encouragement to make the differance.
Look at it this way, If we all look the same it would be very boring. It's nice to see differant shape and sizes and it all comes with differant packaging. Thats what makes us special.
Be proud and secure in your self and thats all what matters.
i don't know... maybe go talk to a dr... its sad... your missing out on alot of stuff...
You are obsessed with nothing. Let it go.
You need to think about two things (at least):
-Is it important to show your body to others? Surely you don't have to show it to everyone! How important is your health for you when visiting a doctor? How important is it for you to go swimming?
-Why are you afraid to show your body? Do you think people will be judging you? Do you not like being "looked at" by boys? What exactly are the reasons for you not wanting to go swimming? And do these reason make sense? Are you not making too much of something? Can you read minds and "know" what others may think when (or if) they look at you? Are you expecting too much of yourself in terms of looks? Do you think everyone has to look like the top-ten models to go swimming?
You didn't say how old you are, but I will assume you are a teenager. You are going through the most awkward years of your life. it is normal to be easily embarrassed or self-conscious. It is normal for a person of your age. Talk with your mother, sister or a friend about your feelings. You will probably be surprised to find they have felt the same way at one time or another. If your fear of going to a male doctor is preventing you from seeking treatment, perhaps you would be more comfortable with a female doctor.
