I’m not anti-plastic surgery, I’m anti build a body and then telling young girls bold faced lies about how you’ve obtained said body thru “exercise” and “hard work” just say Dr So and So built this body already.
Literally now is the time to do it. Don’t show me 4 neatly curated Notes app photos. As someone born with booty and a waist, like...you didn’t earn this. And all that comes with it. Just admit that even for you it wasn’t within reach till you slid over some coins.
Also I wish I had my grandmothers here to capture me at what they think is my most beautiful. Because I am them. Every curve, the melanin, the lips, the eyes...I would love my matriarchs to SEE me today.
I feel for girls today. I think about my body every second of the day, I have tortured her. I workout in a fever & drop weight, I self loathe & pile it back on. Rinse repeat. That’s just the 80s wacko fitness construct that set that path for me, they have IG. Protect young girls.
