Verdict on sunken chest

7 Comments

I have a sunken chest (pectus excavatum, not as bad as most stuff on google) and my ribs poke out. From the front I look cool but my profile makes my abs look like a beer belly if I don't have really good posture, and then my ribs poke out.
I'm 6'0 and skinny with sharp features, wide shoulders and I work out every day, so people are often attracted, but I always feel like if they saw me shirtless there's a good chance they'd be turned off.

Be real, with no emotional attachment (just a random hookup), how would you perceive this feature in a guy?

    It depends, honestly if I were young and still into that I would have to see you to form any kind of opinion or make any judgment on the matter.

    I know this this is so random, but if I were young again and able to hookup whenever I wanted I would want to concentrate more on school, work and friendships and much much less on getting random hookups, because they're really sort of pointless, selfish and a distraction from what really matters. You probably don't want to hear me say this, but you're actually objectifying yourself and others when you're overly concerned about whether or not you can get random hookups. Casual sex is overrated, and really people are often just using each other as objects.

      I see what you're saying and I appreciate it, but I disagree. Maybe it's different backgrounds but I view casual sex as a natural part of life I enjoy. While I might be objectifying myself, I'm specifically asking about physical features in an objectifying manner because that's what I'm curious about. I value much more than looks in myself and others but that's entirely unrelated to the insecurity at hand.
      I don't think I'm objectifying others; I'm literally asking about the thoughts, values, and decision-making processes of someone in their shoes.

        Not only that but most people form subliminal judgements on your socio-economic background, level of education, and even your intelligence simply based on your appearance at a glance. Don't obsess about your ribs. Get your teeth straightened, wear contact lenses, and above all keep perfect sitting and standing posture. Work on eye contact, a gracious demeanor, and verbal elucidation.

        Btw, if you enter a room with a 5 to 1 ratio of women to men, it helps to swagger your hips a bit like Magic Mike, the male stripper.
