    Do you care what other people think of your body?

    Primal Fuel
    Just really surprised myself by bursting into tears when my partner told me I had a fat arse. I am paraphrasing. He said 'junk in your trunk'. I know it was supposed to be funny but I just crumbled. Guess I am a bit fragile today!

    Please don't cry! He probably meant it as a compliment. Most guys like junk in the trunk. It is natural and sexy.

    Yes, junk in the trunk is a good thing.

    If I said no, I would totally be lying, just like if I said that the only thing I want from Primal is the health benefits! That said, I have had people close to me say some horrid things. I used to internalize it, but now that I'm "getting up there" (jk, I'm only 37!), I not only am giving less of a "****", I am standing up for myself. I guess I am getting more mature and practical about it. I do not and will never look like a magazine cover, they airbrush them anyways, so if someone makes a snarky comment about me, they are now suprised that I will stand up for myself. When I first did that, I was told that I must be in a bad mood.....No, you are just being a total a$$hole....

    as a wise man once said, "My anaconda don't want none, unless you've got buns hun."

    as for what others think, nah, usually I don't care. The one place it does matter to me is work. I am not going to be the lazy fat guy.

    Not anymore. It used to, but now I am getting pretty happy as my body changes into its natural form through hot yoga and PB.

    Women are supposed to be soft and curvy IMO.

    As to whether I care about what other people think- only the ones I want to sleep with, not sure why anyone else matters.
