What part of your body do you try to hide?
-
I live quirky. My lip doesn't sit right because of some childhood scarring, my teeth have intertwined roots, I'm undertall for my family, I have huge ankles and tiny feet. What am I going to do remove everything? So I embrace it. My hair is too long... but then I like it, everyone else finds it quirky and odd. If they stay out of my hair, I'll stay out of theirs. :) I wear black Australian style cowboy hats so that I look just odd enough to stand out, but not so odd as to be shot in the back and drug throught he cactus patches (not necessarily in that order). :)

Akubra? I have a black Snowy River I bought back in 1995. Still going strong.

I normally don't wear open-toed shoes (I'm a girl) or sandals because I have weird feet. My line of toes angles in such a way that it looks like I only have four toes. Since it's another crazy-hot day I decided to wear my sandals to work. My boss asked, "Dude, are you missing a toe?" So I ask, is there a part of your body that is considered weird or unusual? Have you thought about having surgery if you could? Or do you embrace its quirkiness? Is it something a person of the opposite sex found endearing or gross?
My tail.

This is surely borderline soap box ? My parents are European, so I guess that's why I am pretty relaxed about that stuff. I don't really care who sees me nekkid, or half dressed. It's not that I think I have anything special worth seeing, I just reckon everyone's got the same stuff, so it's not a big deal.

I'm pretty hairy, but the only part that bothers me is on my shoulders and the top part of my arms. So I don't wear tank tops that often.

It's not parts of my body I try to hide, it's parts of my code.

If I had the money to pay someone, I sure would love to refactor some of that code.

I define quirkiness.

I recently blew out my belly button (medical term: Umbilical Hernia). I guess I'll have surgery someday...but until then, my front looks a little strange. Can't say I try to hide it though. If I cared what others thought about such things, then I'm sure this would be what I'd try to hide.

I have a little bit of that. It's not the whole belly button, just the lower wall has a slope to it, and I can push the inside bits back through the hole where they stick out which feels a little weird. I should probably have it fixed sometime soon given the chance I'll get kicked or punched there and rupture something.

a Minnetonka copy, but yes, that style. Keeps my ears from burning mainly, one less step to skin cancer -- that does run in the family (and I am already having issues with). Leather lasts a lot longer than the straw throw-away hats they where locally. I don't need a new hat a year. :-D

I don't really have anything that I try to hide. My worst feature would definitely be my big ole massive belly. It's not really quirky as it is blubbery. My only weird feature is a birthmark on my leg that looks like a burn. I get a question about it every once in a while.

I hope you weren't expecting to get serious replies to this question. Or were you just in the mood to hear a bunch of penis jokes? :)

I have odd-looking marks all over my back. So i generally wear a shirt of some sort. It's probably just as well; i doubt i need to provide them with any extra UV-encouragement... :~ Surgery? Sure. I had one of 'em cut out and biopsied. Left a huge crater, and the wife hated it. Probably won't do that again soon...

Yeah, mine is on the top. I've been told it looks like my belly is smiling. I can push it back in too...but it hurts when I do situps. I have to hold it in with quite a bit of pressure.

Where you hanging out that you need to be concerned with getting kicked or punched in the gut?

How do you hide your nose? Grow a moustache?

Whe(n/re) I grew up, this was very relaxed. So I have no problems with e.g. going swimming nude with loose acquaintances. But then: (1) I don't like people showing off their nudity, no matter how they look (2) I feel very vulnerable with the family jewels uncovered. It's ok and great for swimming, but I don't *need* it. (3) I don't consider myself "a sight", and I try to be nice to others (4) There are many places where "more cover" is considered common courtesy, so I comply. (Except one thing: no swimming in trunks. Nude, speedos or no swimming)

Mine doesn't hurt, or I'd probably pay it more attention.

How do you figure out whose design is better? Where I work we use a deathmatch in the "cage". The winner gets to set the design and coding convention until they are unseated. Actually, I've been doing kung fu to get in shape.

Well, I hoped there would be a few real responses. I put this in the Lounge versus Soapbox hoping to keep the snickers to a minimum. Didn't work. :laugh:
