Since most 12 step programs refer to a "higher power" I doubt you'd find one
that you would subject yourself to! But we can always hope! ;)

My interest at the beach is purely esthetic -- admiring the perfection
of the human form and all that. And I don't take photos and post them

Yeah, they say that, then they start every meeting with the serenity
prayer, which goes
"God, grant me the serenity . . ."
If you're not happy with religion, then you won't be happy in a 12-step
program. Not only will you have to sit through a prayer right off the
bat, but you'll also have to listen to lots of people testifying how God
saved them.

Contempt is nevertheless a form of interest.
I love to people-watch, and a big part of it is amazement at what people
will wear and what kind of distorted self-image they must have to be

I remember going to the beach with my mother a few years ago - just stopping
to stretch our legs while on a long drive (and we were mercifully fairly
well covered...) There were two guys lying on - whatchacallits - lounge
chairs? on the beach, looking precisely (and painfully) like a couple of
Beluga whales in Speedos. And neither of them would have been a beauty even
if svelte...
At any rate, their loveliness is their own business, and I would perhaps
have applauded their self-acceptance (if not their taste in swim attire),
except that as I walked by I couldn't help but overhear their conversation.
They were evidently local, and seemed to know most of the ladies on the
beach. They were laying on their lounges, gazing over their bellies the
best they could, and critiquing every woman (and most were not bad looking -
certainly none had a patch on the two individuals in the Speedos) that
walked by. "Can you believe she's wearing that?" "She really let herself
go, didn't she?" "Man, she put on some weight!" And the prize-winner "Boy,
I'm glad I broke up with her!"
My mother and I had to take up power-walking long enough to get out of
earshot before we cracked up completely...sometimes you get a
people-watching championship with no warning!

This is one of life's wicked ironies: Men who are about as attractive
as an elephant seal with a skin disease think they are hot stuff, while
women who are quite presentable fret over some imagined blemish.
Of course, to be fair, women who dress like Britney Spears and carry
saddle bags between their halter tops and low-cut jeans have the same
problem as the men.

Oh, I dunno that you are weird.
I used to live in Hippie Central (in the late 80s!) and I spent all
summer, every summer, for about 3-4 years swimming nude in the Gorges
of Ithaca where I would be in anything from Lonely Splendor to Among
the Hordes Of Mongol. Honestly, on a hot summer day in the back of
beyond gorges, like Businessman's Falls or the Dam Falls we would have
upwards of 40 people swiming, laying out on the rocks, etc. in the
buff.
I was always amazed at how much more respectful and polite people were
when we were all buck naked than when I went to a real beach/swimming
area where everyone was in some version of a swim suit. I felt much
less self concious or on display when nude surrounded by nudes.

I went to Martinique back in the 70s, where most everyone is at least
topless on the beaches.
Well, when in Rome......
My observations were that the Locals and Europeans couldn't have cared
less that women were walking around bare breasted... the American men
however were like hound dogs with a bitch in heat.
I could hear the constant clicking of camera shutters as they walked
around checking everyone out.
Now, I'm not saying *all* the American men were acting like fools, but
I am saying I'm pretty sure everyone who was acting like a fool was
American.

The question is not whether they looked into a mirror, but what they saw.
Take the guy who is wearing a polyester leisure suit, gold chains, white
shoes and belt (known as a "full Cleveland," or "full Chicago" if you're
from Cleveland), and a comb-over. He had to look in the mirror to do
the comb-over, and he obviously thinks he's hot stuff.
Or, to be fair and balanced, the woman who is wearing so much makeup she
looks like an refugee from a Hungarian circus act.
As the saying goes, "What are they thinking."

LOL Is there a man alive who gets up in the morning, looks in the mirror,
and hates what he sees? Nope. A few years ago there was a commercial on TV
with that theme, I can't even remember what they were selling, it was a
series of men obsessing about their clothes, or butts. It was IMHO very
funny.

Not too many of those outside CA, or Vegas, are there? Saddle bags? Jim, you
need to stop looking at those!!!! :)
Jody
Jim Casey
Plenty of them in this area. Remember, I live in a resort town where at
any moment the number of tourists equals or exceeds the permanent
population, so we get them from all over. I also suspect people wear
stuff on vacation that they wouldn't dare wear in their home town, which
would explain Las Vegas.
I try not to look, but the worst examples radiate some evil fascination.

One of the few commercials I actually paid attention to. IIRC, it was
for Special K cereal. My nephew's favorite line was "I have my mother's
thighs" ... he felt he resembled that remark.

Now, if those were the Ob:Horse saddle bags, fine. Unfortunately, not
only are those not the saddle bags Jim referred to ... nor are they
limited to California or Vegas.

Probably because all were equally vulnerable and no one had durst
