Is it normal to need this for attraction?
I am absolutely unable to be attracted to people, who do not feel self-conscious about themselves (for example, about certain aspects of their body).
Even if they feel self-conscious and don't show it, it feels disappointing to me.
All of this obviously applies to a degree, which doesn't turn self-consciousness into self-loathing, the latter is unattractive as well.
Thoughts?
