I hate nails. I feel funny if I think about them too much and I can't bear to look at long nails.

Feet are the absolute worst though. Awful looking things. If I have kids I'm probably going to have to superglue their socks to them. Even baby feet freak me out, and toddler are worse. They're chubby with no shape. I even hate the words associated with those things on the end of your legs. Why do animals get such adorable paws and we get those ghastly ones?

Does anyone else get a bit weirded out by parts of the human anatomy?

Big, fleshy earlobes. Urrgh.

user1019273703 · 24/08/2020 20:31

Eyes!

slavetothenhs · 24/08/2020 20:49

Saggy, hairy, wrinkly scrotums. Sorry but they're just revolting 😂

Teal99 · 24/08/2020 20:49

Feet, just hideous.

Long toes, especially with hair.

Bony shoulder blades.

Child bearing hips on men.

Long fingernails, especially on men.

BearSoFair · 24/08/2020 20:56

Toes. Too short and stubby. But I think they'd be even worse if they were longer like fingers Shock

Ilovegreentomatoes · 24/08/2020 20:58

Sausage fingers! Yuk.

Heatherjayne1972 · 24/08/2020 20:59

Feet yuk

Long nails on men - turns my stomach

lljkk · 24/08/2020 20:59

Inside of my wrists. Where you can see the veins & sinews near the surface. Send shivers up & down me. I'm a lot better than I used to be about them, though.

WaxOnFeckOff · 24/08/2020 21:00

I was just going to say sausage fingers too. Like cold mottled pork sausages in the butchers display case.... Yuck.

sluj · 24/08/2020 21:01

Long nails for me too - much rather see bitten down ones than long ones any day.

ChildOfTheNineties · 24/08/2020 21:03

I don't like really big and bouncy Adam's apples!

purrswhileheeats · 24/08/2020 21:17

@ChildOfTheNineties

I don't like really big and bouncy Adam's apples!
Ronaldo repulses me for this very reason 😩

And for some reason I hate bushy eyebrows on old men, reminds me of Denis Healey Angry

CalicoTheCat · 24/08/2020 21:18

Definitely feet. Especially feet with hard, cracked, yellow skin, bleurgh.

And wrists. I hate seeing veins and can't even touch my own wrists.

Gizmo79 · 24/08/2020 21:25

Eyes, anything to do with them surgically.
Old men feet. Women and children and babies have reasonably nice feet- men feet, oh my god, they are like hobbit feet, yuck!
Not a part of the human body but something that makes me curl - Lumbar punctures- have to assist a lot, makes me faint on occasion, I blame the doc who waltzed in with a needle and then said , no I need an even longer one....

PersianStar · 24/08/2020 21:26

Knees Envy
Also bulging veins... especially on men’s forearms like a body builder. My DP has them after a gym session and they are the most disgusting thing ever.

mawbroon · 24/08/2020 21:30

Piercings on any part of the body give me the heebie jeebies. Even ears!

tanqueray10 · 24/08/2020 21:31

Definitely veins and belly buttons!
The thought of a varicose vein makes me want to vomit and I cannot bear anybody touching my belly button. I can’t even go near it! Absolute puke. 🤢

Trailing1 · 24/08/2020 21:31

Noses.... seriously just urgh!

Veins being very very green and noticeable (I feel like my arms currently look like a Map of the London Underground)

Queenoftheashes · 24/08/2020 21:32

Arseholes

TheNumberfaker · 24/08/2020 21:32

Definitely knees.

Trailing1 · 24/08/2020 21:33

And belly.buttoms make me feel squeamish. This sounds very dramatic but I felt so queasy seeing my babies with theirs clipped after birth etc

MrsMayo · 24/08/2020 21:43

Long finger nails on men 《glad my DH bites his). Most people's feet. I also can not abide people itching the inside of their ears or noses.

Aquamarine1029 · 24/08/2020 22:02

Ear gauges. They are bad enough when the gauge is in, but when out, the lobe is stretched out and all wrinkly. Literally makes me gag when I see it.

SweetPetrichor · 24/08/2020 22:04

I guess it’d have to be the uterus...in a way...cause I can’t look at a pregnant woman without thinking about the baby being like a huge parasite growing inside you. It genuinely gives me the willies. The prospect of being pregnant sickens me. Thankfully, it’s not something I have to deal with!

TableDesk · 24/08/2020 22:05

Back of knees Envy
Hate when DS has growing pains and I have to rub them. Literally have to take a big breath and close my eyes. Even touching my own accidently, like an itch on the back of my legs, gives me the heebie jeebies
