Yes, it is true guys do feel insecure about their body too. Guys stare at their bodies a lot and look at their flaws. Some people believe that it's not as bad as girls, but i think they are right. If guys cared more about their looks than why would they "let themselves go" when they are old. Females are always worried about their weight even if they pretend they don't. However, why do guys have issues? Well, it's TV shows like Jersey Shore, The Hills, Athletes, Models, and Celebrates who look amazing and make guys feel insecure. They are not the average guys, but girls are attracted to them. Guys want to feel good about themselves and want to get heads turned. Sound familiar? Guys and girls go through the same thing. However, we approach it differently. Guys work out on average three to four times a week. While girls go on diets and barely work out. Anyways, the ideal guy is the "ken barbie": hot, tall, nice tan, muscular, washboard abs, firm butt, full head of hair that you can run your fingers through, and a smile that last a lifetime. People like: Usher, Will Smith, Chad Michael Murray, Kobe Bryant, Channing Tatum, Johnny Depp, Justin Timberlake, Michael Sorrentino (aka The Situation), and Paul "Pauly D" DelVecchi are looked upon as hot guys today. These are some of many guys that are considered "hott" because they have some of the stereotypical characteristics that a guy apparently should have. I'm not going to lie i love my men to look like that; especially if he is an athlete. But just because he is "hott" doesn't mean he is a good guy. He can be an amazing athlete that is self-absorb; that is a turn off ladies and gentlemen. I get it; your hot, you know your hot, but there is a limit to everything. So this might be the "ideal" guy for many girls, but is that fair? Ladies try to look outside the outside; if that makes sense. There are the "average" guys that are sweet, kind, funny and i fall for them easily as do many other girls. I love to laugh and joke around and if a guy can make me laugh, he is one step closer to my heart, even if he's not an athlete. I believe every guy is cute in someway. I think we should help each other out; men and women by looking past of what you imagine your guy or girl to be. As long as your happy and healthy. If you are not healthy; go out and help yourself first because your health is extremely important. I am not saying to look like a barbie doll or GI Joe; just healthy. Don't give up on happiness; we all deserve to be happy. But by doing that we should get rid of what the "ideal" person and be happy with your body. As long as you can look at a mirror and say to yourself "damn i look good" that is all that matters. If you say "ahhh i look good, but just maybe loose a few pounds and look HOTT" than go for it. Key thing is to be healthy and maintain a healthy weight for as long as you can. It is also good to go twice a year for a physical check up with your doctor; it's not going to kill you, but might save you. So in the end ladies and gentlemen both sexes deal with the issue of body image, but don't let that stop you from being who you are.
