I uess I would have to answer this with another question. Do women notice they dont have the bodys for belly shirts or 2 piece bikins with bellys sticking out past their chest or do they just not care? Maybe some people think they look good even if to you they dont. or maybe they are just idiots
-
I know im not.I never take off my shirt in public.I look like apeman.
-
Maybe for some people looks aren't everything and when it is hot outside, regardless of how they look people start removing clothing....there are plenty of terrible bodies in bikinis but life isn't a fashion show. If they are happy and confident in their skin, let them be - each to their own....perhaps they don't care about other people judging them.
-
Don't care

Women make themselves up because they want to be attractive to men AND they want to out-do other women. Men are the same way. But, women have more of an eye for how they look than men do. Women, work harder at trying to attract a mate than men do. Women have the neurological wiring needed to accomplish this. Speaking scientifically, men are born brain damaged! They are unware that they are walking around looking like a train wreck.

I'm bald, fat, happy and stupid, I don't care, don't look if u don't want to

Most likely they do not care. Men are far more apt to do whatever makes them comfortable in a given situation, with little if any regard to what other people think of it. We reason that if people have a problem with it, they can mind their own business and deal with it themselves. When we are specifically making an attempt to attract a woman...some of us will dress up. Most of the time though, we simply reason that if it's hot and we want to go shirtless, after having a nice steak and mashed potatoes dinner the night before with no tummy crunches afterwards...we should be able to. It's our life, and if someone finds us unattractive, then we really didn't want to be with them anyway.
-
I know, and I care. I try to keep myself in shape, but after nearly fifty years, my muscle tone isn't what it once was, and my belly isn't a six pack anymore. (More like a party ball!) But I don't let it hang out in public, and I don't wear tight fitting t-shirts.
-
I hope they don't care. What other people think about them should not be their business. If they feel good, comfortable, and are enjoying life, who should care? ` Sometimes people base how they feel off of how they look; a faulty way of living if you ask me. But who am I? Just one opinion.
-
Probably they don't care.If they are married or have a girlfriend they probably do not feel the need to attract the opposite sex by being trim.For a single man still looking they might keep their shirt on if not fit,though would be more likely to be the ones that physically work out at the gym.

I think most men have some idea of whether or not their bodies are aesthetically pleasing(esp. given how much sports most of us watch...:-D...) However, many men (most?) don't see it as their responsibility to cover up their pasty white underbellies just to please others. If we are hot (temperature, not attractiveness) , or we want to get a bit of tan on our pasty white underbellies, off comes the shirt.
-
I'm in decent shape, but I'll tell you right now, the shape I'm on has no bearing on whether I'll take my shirt off or not. Even if I was 400 lbs I'd take my shirt off if I felt like it, that's the way it should be. It's liberating to take your clothes off. Oh, and the comment that someone made about hispanic men is absolutely true. Hispanic men love to let the beer gut fly. And why not shouldn't they?
-
honestly hun i think confidence and opinions has nithing to do with it. i think there thinking damn its hot! you have somewhat of an idea what they look like with it on, taking it off just basically confirms that/ if someone is comfortable enough in their own skin to take their shirt off whenever, kudos to them.
-
Men tend to view themselves in a delusionally good light - so far. It's changing and eventually men will be as self-obsessed as women.
-
since most of them can see, i assume they don't care.
-
this cracks me up! Im guessing here, but im assuming it probably has something to do with the fact that men are not gauged as much by their body as women are. Men CAN proudly sport a scantily clad, obese, saggy body in public and still feel good about themselves. Women, on the other hand, if she has a nice body, with just a little chub in the rear, will get criticized harshly by men at the beach for this imperfection. Thank you for the new complex, now every time I go to the beach im going to be worried about people looking at my slightly protruding belly.
-
From what I saw at the beach yesterday, there are members of both sexes who are not nearly self-conscious enough.
-
Those are the ones that don't have to care because they realized a long time ago that some women will screw anything that is nice to them.
-
I'm sure they where it because they feel comfortable in it. And not saying i find it attractive. But if they can wear that and feel good about it, then i wish i had a splash of their confidence.
-
I'm probably over-stepping the mark here but as far as I am concerned for every man that is exposing a fat stomach there are probably two women! The fat bum and stomach hanging out seems to be a popular look this summer.Some people just don't check in the mirror before they leave the house!!
-
Some men don't care much about their looks when they already have a wife or S/O. +4
-
Well, some of them care, some don't!
-
Yeah... I admit I look a lot better to people when they close their eyes... But I honestly don't care what people think about how "fat" I am... Technically, I have a belly and honestly "man boobs" but I don't rightly give a damn. I was put on a damn pill from age 5 to 16 that trippled weight gain, halfed metabolism, and doubled apetite... But, my mindset is that it's what's on the inside that counts... If you can't like me for who I really am; close your eyes or walk away... :D
-
Most of them don't care, but I'm sure some don't know. I don't know that it's possible for some men to judge another man's looks. For me, as a gay guy, it's impossible to judge whether or not a female is attractive. Some straight men may feel the same way about men.
-
They likely don't care. Some people enjoy having their shirt off, and props to them for it.
-
I see plenty of women with their guts hanging out too, so it isn't just the men. Not everyone who takes their shirt off does so because they think they are "hot", but because they are, literally, hot.
-
The same can apply to some women! Today when I was out for a walk I was reminded of the importance of not wearing teeny weeny panties which are a tad too tight, and also why I should never EVER wear a crop top!
-
I don't care if overweight men walk around shirtless. Everyone has a right to be comfortable. If you don't like someone's looks, simply look away. I only have a problem with these men when they look like Mr. Slob and then they denigrate women who don't look like Miss America. Tolerance goes both ways.
-
Ok, here's the real skinny. Men are like women in the respect that they know what is attractive (mostly). The difference between men and women... most men don't care as much as women and would rather look and feel confident in themselves as opposed to subjecting one's self esteem to constant "Does this make me look fat?" questions. The real question: What is more attractive, confidence and personality, or superficial good looks? BTW, I am not what you would consider "unattractive," by any means. This is still how I honestly feel.
-
I don't think most men even think about it, as most women, hopefully aren't conscious or care how they look 24/7. It's nice to be just comfortable with yourself. And I would think that not all men look unattractive that way. Some people aren't just into looks, but see instead a happy person, a person enjoying himself, a great smile, a kind person, a fun person. So what if they aren't perfect. If they like themselves and are a good person, that's all that matters to many people.
-
i think it mainly depends on one's genetic structure. men are self aware that they are fat or something but they cant do much about it.most men try to compensate for this by being sweet talkers +2
-
Like women don't do the same? What's up with all the girls/women who are really a size 10/12 or bigger trying to shove their asses and everything else into a size 6. Do these women realize how unsexy they look in a pair of low rider jeans with big rolls of fat hanging over the sides of their jeans especially when they compliment the look with a top that doesn't cover their belly? Yes there are alot of men who should take a second look in the mirror before they leave the house but there are just as many if not more women who should do exactly the same.
-
When you are young and single you worry about it. Once you reach a certain age and are comfortable in life, you don't care. My fat ass was running through the sprinklers yesterday with the grand-daughter and did not care at all about my belly.
-
"Physically unattractive"--to WHO? Who has/have been "knighted" to perform the job of stating who is "attractive"--and who is NOT?
-
Why is it that the biggest, fattest slobs are the first ones to want to take their shirts off? It's pretty repulsive. I think they just don't care.
-
Yes I do know when im unattrcative. And i really dont need people out there reminding me of the fact that i am physically unattractive. I wont take off my shirt thanks to people like you.
-
don't care... there are more reasons to take your shirt off than to give you eye candy. for instance... going swimming, it is hot, shirtless is more comfortable.... I am only shirtless at home and while swimming.
-
It's all a matter of perception so yes there is a chance that they've been told differently or are somewhat narcissistic, but it would depend on the situation. In summertime I think it'd be more of a means to keep themselves from having a heatstroke and passing out in the middle of the street seeing as in some places temperatures can reach up to 120 Fahrenheit.
