you think we're bad, the worst people i've ever known to talk about their old body parts and the medical details are OLD MEN! for some reason, men seem to suddenly hit a stage where nothing is off limits and they are gross...

Old men talking is bad enough... Let's just hope, they don't want to show us the scars.

I had an interesting conversation yesterday with a friend who always concerns herself with how she is now limited by her age. She fits everything into the context of what she believes her aging will bring about and what she can no longer do, like improve at the gym or go back to her Haitian dance classes. I asked her if in her youth she had compared all the things she could do with what being young gave her. For example, I am so energetic because I am 17 years old. She said no. So I then asked what could she focus on if the beliefs about getting older weren't in the picture either? Healing injuries, getting more information about her health, tending to new health issues as they come up. Just no cloud over her head, that hides the sun from shining on her. What does everyone think about this approach? Pie in the sky? Realistic?

Ladybug...you've never been around men when they are showing off their scars??? It's like a badge of courage for them. All the men in my family are more than happy to point out each and every scar. What scars were you thinking of?

The last sentence in Chatty's posting is so true!
Any kind of body scars near the groin area, ugh!
