I've played I Never. With Buffistas even. Post high school I remember a game of strip war. Yes, the card game. I was the referree and got to pick what items were stripped. There was a logic in with all the alcohol, but heck if I could remember it now.

Are you sure? Don't you remember all those metaphors and the bottle of Dom?

Apparently Charlize Theron has 2 canine partners:

I think it's an issue for some guys, sure. But using data from the University of My Ass, I'd say it is way more common for women.

I will never forget the male friend who told me how awesome he looked in the mirror when he was drunk, which he attributed to the dehydration making him look more cut. I don't think I've ever looked in the mirror when drunk and not thought, "ugh." And I generally feel good about how I look!

Right?

With guys, I sometimes think they're more concerned with impressing (or intimidating) other guys than women. But since I'm not a guy, I have no idea.

That could also be because I've generally found guys to be more forgiving about women's bodies (on a one-on-one basis) than other women are. Although forgiving is not really the best word there. Enthusiastic about all shapes? Like that.

Sometimes I don't speak English so good.

AND I just remembered to pay my student loan on time! (The one I don't autopay because paperwork.) I am SO ON IT.

And I generally feel good about how I look!

Rightly so!

Emmett is more conscious of being ripped than I was at his age. I mean, I enjoyed my physical peak but I was more aware of how strong I felt than how sexy that might appear.

I imagine men and women fail to meet society's standard for "sexy" at about the same rate, but I don't think men are under the same pressure to BE EXACTLY THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF SEXY ALL THE TIME OR ELSE YOU FAIL AT PERSONHOOD the way women are.

I do think that body dysmorphia is more common for men and boys than it used to be, but nowhere near women and girls. And for people without a disease, I think the "acceptable" zone is smaller for women.

My suspicion is that the box has more elbow room for guys than girls (if not only because the standard mode of sexy dress is so much more revealing for women), but I'm hardly going to bring that up anywhere with people I don't know.

Also, apparently penis size is exactly as much a hangup for guys as breast size for women.

Where are they seeing all these penises?

And men can make up for some things (or seem to think so) with money or cars or whatever. Whereas if you're a girl, the world still expects boobs and makeup and jiggle.
