that's exactly how I felt when t kept bringing up whether I'm confident about my appearance. I'm glad I finally told him more strongly that I don't see it as a big problem even if I'm not totally confident, because focusing on my appearance all the time is caving in to sexism more than I want to. Except sometimes I want to work on being more in shape/healthy. TG he finally had some other topics besides my appearance to talk about after I told him this.
