I'm happier with my body now than I ever was when I was younger. I think I look better now, plus I am less likely to succumb to the "Comparision Sickness".

I think a lot of that also comes from doing burlesque, and seeing all types of women in all stages of preparation for the stage. I see them backstage, nude or damn close in full fluorescent light (very cruel), and I can see all the bulges, wrinkles, pimples, bad posture, bad hair-covered wig hairpieces...and many of then giving great tips on how to hide all that stuff. Then they go on the stage and look magnificent. Because they know How To Work everything to their advantage for those few minutes--makeup, lighting, costuming (yes, there are right and wrong ways to chose and wear pasties!), distance from the audience (thank god), and of course, personality/character projection.

I am not into cooch display for print (it's not even a possibility for stage). I don't like the gynecologist's-eye-view that so many males seem to enjoy so much. But then, I'm not a guy.
