I kind of want to talk about body image. But I& #39;m probably going to fuck this up, so bear with me and be compassionate: i have never been attractive. At it& #39;s absolute best my body is that of a tank, all squares and edges. And now it is fat.
I smashed too much of myself against walls, as part of a life I used to live. But I don& #39;t resent attractive people nor do I feel bitter about my body. I don& #39;t like how it looks, but it has carried me to the Gates of Hell and back. It has earnt the right to look like shit.
But even if it didn& #39;t, why would it matter? I know why. But why would anyone else but me have an opinion?
I guess, I am feeling defensive because of all the bullshit posts about body image and iso weight gain. Can y& #39;all just stop? I don& #39;t really need to know you& #39;re ashamed of yourself and by extension me.
Yeah, I look like shit. I have pulled barbed wire and teeth out of my face. My face has been cut in a knife fight. I have had my own teeth rip through the muscle in cheek until there was just skin holding. I have a limp and percussive tinnitus.
