    I’m circumcised (not embarrassing in the US, at least), but only am because of an injury I got my member caught in my pants zipper when I was 13, ignored it until it got infected, and my mother refused to believe that there had ever been an zipper accident and that I just wasn’t “responsible enough” to clean myself down there.

      FWIW some stranger on the internet believes you. That sounds incredibly painful.

    Nearly any form of positive recognition or feedback in public where a third party is meant to see. It’s just one of the many wonderful things that is super fucking wrong with me, but, no matter how sincere it really is, it always feels condescending to me, and I have to hide my annoyance at it while acting appreciative.

    Buying pants. My thick thighs make most pants not fit well. It’s annoying and was more embarrassing back in HS. My GF at the time really liked to shop and shop with me. I had to shoot down her plans a lot.

    I hated wearing corduroy as a child. The zip-zip sound while running or walking was an embarrassment.

    I’m glad that people’s bodies are more accepted now. I’m glad to see more kids who are accepting and promoting body positivity.

    That just wasn’t my experience.

    I have essential tremor. When I play guitar in front of people my hands shake uncontrollably. It’s uncomfortable.

      Beta blockers might help.

    Walking. I have a severe lung condition, so walking with people is really embarrassing still. I either have to explain that I’m slow or I am a panting, sweaty mess.

    Anything involving ice skating. I absolutely cannot do it, I instantly freeze up and people think it’s funny to push me around and use me as a human hockey puck…
