Is that because people would appreciate your body more?

It's not just about other's validation, it's about my own as well.

That's not something so easy to tell all the time.

How in shape are you? How much budget/time do you put into managing your look? When was the last time you had sex with someone who was sexually aroused by you?

If any of those things are out of wack, the desire for validation will over shadow everything else, to the point where it will be affecting things you're not even conciously aware it's affecting.

>How in shape are you? 
I'm not fat but I could be in better shape
>How much budget/time do you put into managing your look? 
Take care of my hair and skin, but as a male I can't dress up or a feminine haircut or do makeup without invoking disgust from others, nor can I do it without feeling gross about my own body
>When was the last time you had sex with someone who was sexually aroused by you?
>implying i've ever had sex

I've thought about this a lot. It's not only about validation from others. I want to feel good in my own body.

When I say 'managing your look', I mostly mean how you look to over people, as apposed to how you look to yourself.

If you can make yourself look like a man women desire, that'll sink deep into your subconcious, it's incredibly difficult to not feel good in your body when you're surrounded by people telling you everyday that your body looks good.

Key word there being 'if'. No amount of work can make me any taller or make my dick bigger.
