I have never been a woman, but that doesn't mean I don't feel the same way that you do in terms of body confidence. I'm super skinny, do you know during my pre-teen and teen years how much it took me to wear short sleeves in the summer because I was ashamed at the way my arms looked? Or the fact that I still don't wear shorts at all? I'm not saying I go through as much hardships as a woman does, I would be stupid to believe that, but I'm saying it's just as easy for men to have body confidence and self-esteem issues as well. I understand my position of power and my advantages, and I understand that women definitely have been given extremely and unfairly high beauty standards by the media and I think it's a shame and I think it needs to be fixed. But I find it very hard to believe that a woman's only semblence of self-worth comes from attention from a man, and I'm a male.
