I don't have a problem with any of those, but what always gets me is I have a lot of scarring on my back and good amount on my chest. I have very few that are visible if you were to just see me on the street, but once the shirt comes off, I get really selfconscious. When I'm seeing someone, I go very far out of my way to let them know the extent of it, because it's a lot to have to handle, even if you're prepared for it. Once I get that initial reaction out of the way, then I'm completely comfortable.
