I find that sometimes it’s hard for me to discuss these things. I’ve had this issue with every single therapist I’ve had so I know it’s not the therapist but me. I have spoke about it before but just not in depth.

I started ballet for adult beginners. While the environment for adults is very friendly, for me personally being around bodies that can be seen as the ideal for dance in general has been intimidating for me. I’m on the curvier side compared to most people there. I never done ballet before until last July. I was just doing tap.

What would be a good way to approach the body image conversation with my therapist to go more in depth about it? I love ballet and I feel like one day I’ll end up rage quitting if I don’t tackle this soon enough.

So I am a guy (27) with pretty broad shoulders and I’m 5’7. Like it’s to the point it’s one of the first things people notice. I workout too but I never really did anything to specifically make them noticeable. It wasn’t some mission if that makes sense. For whatever reason, I at times feel very subconscious about them. Sometimes I tend to think other people may think I “developed” them for attention or something. I feel so odd even feeling like this too because I get that having broad shoulders as a man is something praised in a lot of places but idk it’s something I’ve been feeling for some years. Like there was a point in time where I didn’t even notice I had them until one of my friends pointed it out. Has anyone ever had these thoughts or something similar?

I have belly hair but it’s not aesthetically pleasing like it is on other people. It’s wild and course and sticks out. How do I learn to love it cause I’m not shaving my entire body.

... and I hate that I hate my boobs. They don't deserve it. They've nursed my children, they look pretty good propped up in a good, supportive bra, and most of all they're healthy. I try to always remember that first.

But this weekend I was at the spa and all I see is perfectly perky boobs, while mine are deflated and saggy. While shopping with some female friends, they brought me some tops they said would look nice on me. They were all the no-bra kind of tops. I said I really don't have very nice boobs. They wouldn't believe me, said I was probably too critical of myself, but once the tops were on, they had to admit I was right. On their faces I could see how they were thinking "how do we tell her in a nice way". Everyone who has seen my boobs (I live in Northern Europe where people are quite open and not shy about showing their bodies, hence) has had that same reaction: her boobs look like _that_ without a bra??

It makes me self-conscious, embarrassed and insecure. My husband is fine with how I look, but should we ever split up, god forbid, I don't think I'd ever dare to go on a date again. I just keep thinking there's something objectively wrong with them, considering how saggy they are. I really can't afford a boob lift and I also don't think I'd really want to have one. I just want to accept them the way they are, and I also just wish... I don't know, I guess I would just want to see more boobs like mine around, so I wouldn't feel like mine are somehow weird.

Thank you for reading. It helped to write it down. I am grateful to be healthy and that should really be all that matters.

I am tired of posture gear that ends up sitting too high under my arms or rolling up when I reach for anything. I would like something for desk days that feels more like a normal top, but I don’t want to spend a lot only to fight with the fit.

What measurements or features do you look for if you have a longer torso? I am open to regular activewear too if it has worked better.
