I am the same way, for all the reasons listed above I keep my surgery to myself and close friends. When asked about how I lost/keep losing so much I just say "Eat less, Move more".
I am like Mike, married but I still enjoy the attention... usually but I cannot let it go to my head. If you arent in a relationship man... take it in and enjoy it.
But as to why people judge us on looks, IMO think its instinctual. People look at others and "try" to find a health mate. Its the same for all species, after all why do you think Rudolf kept hiding his red nose
The media... dont even get me started on that! And just let me say that yeah Paris Hilton is pretty hot.. but I know hotter women that have less bagage, but well... they dont have the bank account either tho
