do any of you think im to young

[Violet]

I have to admit that I am an average looking person with average physical attributes, so I don't suffer so much from body image problems as other people, but it makes me uncomfortable when someone feels bad because someone else thinks they should look different.

I really hope at least some people think I should look different... I should be extremely irritated with them if they did not. It rather causes in me more self-discontent when people encourage/compliment my current appearance than when they side with me in disliking it across almost all aspects.

Not necessarily. There are people who cannot exercise enough to make a difference, medically speaking. There are also people who are overweight because of medical conditions. Of course, this isn't usually the case. Overeating tends to be the problem, but does that mean we should be judgmental about it? I don't think so. I could give a rat's house about a person's weight or appearance (unless they look like Ed Gein).

Sex with the male human walrus is... crushingly popular with the ladies...

Anywho, with specialization, one does not neglect or purposefully damage pieces of oneself for another segment. To do so would be considered a tragedy at best and an aberration at worst. Since we are discussing the usual circumstances for the usual average Joe, we must ask ourselves, "When is it considered a usual and correct behaviour to purposefully neglect areas of yourself in favor of one thing? If so, how long can it go on for before becoming detrimental?"

I don't know. But what I have a conjecture of points to a need to be balanced in all things, mind and body.

Depends on how useful the specializations are, and how useful the thing(s) one is weakening themself in are. Balance is all well and good... but being balanced doesn't mean one is talented. Talent is much more applicable than being a 'jack of all trades, master of none'. I'd rather have three masters in three fields working for me than one journeyman capable of the three noted fields that all compete for his time.
