THIS. THIS RIGHT HERE. We’ve All Got Our Own Relationship With Our Bodies And Everyone’s Journey
THIS. THIS RIGHT HERE. We’ve all got our own relationship with our bodies and everyone’s journey is different. But in the interim, no one deserves staring, unwanted advice, shaming, and the rest of the gamut of indignities that fat women (and sometimes men) have to run. The first two segments and the last are empowering and heartbreaking. I adore Lindy West and Elna Baker and I can tell you that they are both right. I’ve been on both ends of the spectrum and how you’re treated is different. No one likes to think they’re nicer to attractive people but we just are and it’s institutionalized through media and cultural norms. Give it a listen, it’s creative, interesting, and worth your time.

I stopped telling myself that I am lost. I’m not. I'm on a road with no destination, I’m just driving with hope that I’ll find a place that I like and I’ll stay there. I’m not lost, I am on my way.

Fall in love with someone who’s comfortable with your silence. Find someone who doesn’t need your words to know it’s time to kiss you.
