I have some parts of my body that I'm proud of, some not. But seriously, if my guy had a problem with my body, we wouldn't be together.

I can be insecure about my body if I'm going to the beach or something, but I rarely worry about it during sex. I'm busy focusing on other things, and clearly he thinks I'm attractive or we wouldn't be having sex in the first place.

I am comfortable being completely naked during sex. I feel uncomfortable clothed at all, haha.

I'm really shy. I have sexy cleavage shirts and mini skirts and I won't wear them bcs I'm afraid of the negative attention it will bring to me.

I am totally comfortable with my body aloen with my partner or with friends at the beach but not as much as when I wear sexy lingerie for my lover.

Every once in a while I have a bad body image day and will aask that we leave the lights off. Most of the time I'm fine with either low light or all the lights on

I'm not too shy about my body with my Master. We've been together for almost 15 years and he's seen everything so it doesn't phase me to be naked around him. I get more shy around new partners (I'm poly) so sometimes it might take me a while to get completely naked around them.

Lights on/off, doesn't matter. I know my partner loves and accepts me how I am, likewise I, him.

Besides, my body's not the same 'cause of our kids... so his fault too

I might not look like I belong on the cover of sports illustrated, I am proud of my shape and I know my partner finds me sexy. We have never been intimate with the lights off, I like being able to see him and him see me.

I'm very weird about my body. I always think it's not good enough, but we still do it with lights on only! He would not have it any other way and it makes me feel good that he wants to see me.

I'm usually a little shy at first and every time he tells me how beautiful he thinks I am & when he catches me covering my stomach or chest he tells me I shouldn't hide it. I'm very lucky to have someone who does want to see me and I loosen up after hearing him tell me so the insecurities go away quickly.

I definitely don't have a perfect body, but I can't change some parts, like my stretchmarks and such, so there's no reason for me to ALWAYS be so self concious! It depends if the lights are already on or off when the mood strikes if we have sex in the light or dark I try not to let that kind of stuff have an affect on the mood, otherwise I'd get WAY to distracted

I don't think that I have the greatest body ever, but I really don't care. Nothing is going to certain aspects of my body. Other things can be changed with a little bit of exercise.

My body image does not affect my sex life. My boyfriend and I have sex with the lights on 99% of the time. We have sex with the lights off if we're having clandestine sex, we woke up in the middle of the night feeling frisky, or if we're just too lazy to turn the lights on.

i'm weird about how i feel. a lot of the time, i'm not happy w/ the way my body looks naked, but when i'm w/ my bf, my mood changes & i feel sexier than i did earlier that day. idk, maybe it's b/c my guy loves my body & always thinks i'm sexy. it does help.

No I dont really have the body of a nude beach goddess but I have known my man for 20 years and he still tells me every day how much he loves everything about me. We have both physically changed a lot over the years but are very comfortable in our skin around eachother.

I'm super comfortable being totally naked with my partner. I really do love my body, it's pretty damn hot. Plus he loves every inch of me so that makes it easy too!

My gf and I feel the same way! Well, actually about her body and mine...haven't met you yet to render an opinion! I'm sure you are correct about your self-assesment, however!

I happen to really enjoy sex with the lights on - I have almost no qualms about my body type or imperfections...none of my SOs have complained about it, so I'm guessing it's okay. *laughs*

Sometimes, though, I get the hankering for the sensory-deprivation of lights-off sex, but it's normally not out of shyness...I guess I just feel as though my sex-partner is with me because they find me attractive, and I shouldn't deprive either of us of the chance to watch.

I can be shy, but I work through it. I like sex with the lights on, I'm a very visual person, but sometimes off is nice because we live in college dorms with really bright fluorescent strips and I don't like the glare.

I prefer the lights off. I really don't like my body - I'm kind of dysphoric about it ( not just gender, other things too ) so I try to never look at it :/

My partner thinks I'm hot shit, though. I say they're blind, lol.

It's the rare man I get naked for, but no t-shirts...I have lingerie that makes it so my good parts are naked, but the rest is covered!

Oh and lights off, but candles lit! Or the always hip lava lamp (stop laughing!)! My lava lamp is pink and emits a soft pink glow that I think makes my room look sexy!

I'm very uncomfortable with my body, I prefer lights off or very low lighting.

I'm quite comfortable, and I enjoy being able to see my partner, so lights on

I'm very comfortable with my body--in fact, I love my body. And he makes me feel nothing but beautiful, so it's all good.

Lights on or with dim lighting (for the mood)--I'm pretty visual, so I like being able to see everything--unless I'm blindfolded, of course.

We are both very comfortable in our bodies, no problem walking around the house naked...which happens daily.

Lights on unless they happen to already be off. I'm naked almost all the time anyway.
