Does anyone else feel ugly because of not being NT? My psysical features are okay, but I think my poor posture, facial expressions and body language make me unattractive. I'm trying to fix that stuff. I also notice that brightly colored hair draws attention away from the face. Next time I go to the chiropractor I'm going to ask how to fix my posture.

Yes, yes I do.
I sit very awkwardly. Usually in a closed position, it feels very comfortable but it looks like I'm not interested or scared or unconfident. If I force myself into an open position, I can't fully concentrate. Feels too unnatural, it's like I need to watch my body then.

I feel ugly too. I know men find me attractive, but I think women don't. I've had girls hinting that they think I'm not pretty.

I just feel like my body doesn't match my personality. Ok I do like being slim, but I do wish I was a little shorter. I'm only 5 foot 6 but I feel much taller, and I wish I wasn't. I wish I was about 5 foot 3 or 5 foot 4 at the most. And I always think my neck is quite long, my arms are lanky, and I just have that awkward look about me, where I look nervous and unsure, but at the same time I physically have the body of a sexy Hollywood movie star that is famous, confident and rich. Not a stupid low-intellect with social anxiety and scared of my own shadow.

I know men find me sexy, but women judge me harshly.

Most certainly, and I'm glad you brought this up. My biggest problem is when I open my mouth and my eyes just look extremely weird.. This is why I don't even bother looking people in the eyes when speaking because I'll just creep them out.. When speaking I'm nervous and the facial features come out even more.

I'm generally not an ugly person but with these autistic traits I've became much less attractive in general and not even the girls are hitting on me anymore. It's like my real self has been taken from me, most aspies idk why feel autism defines who they are.

It's probably easier for women, but like anything in life with Aspergers/Autism will make it that much harder for us.. My brother is like a role model and all the women love him, he looks exactly like me but doesn't have aspergers. I on the other hand have aspergers and no woman wants me.
