Sometimes I am in public settings on a "don't notice me, leave me alone" basis. I'm not very good at them and they make me uncomfortable.
As to the other -- meh. I've had my face fairly frequently rubbed in the fact that I've got a body type fairly well-aligned with conventional notions of physical attractiveness whether I want it or not, and therefore am construed as a legitimate target for other people's bitterness about the stupidity of such conventional notions. Given that I've got a lingering bias against whatever is "the popular thing" in any given field . . . .
