It really is shocking when you reflect on your younger years and see how embedded into your development it is🫣Hopefully we can flip the script with future generations!!
The social media nowadays makes the standard of how a women should be, should have or should have not. SAD but that is the norms nowadays, which causes anxiety and depression for many.
Stop apologizing, you are not a passive observer in this world, but a dynamic actor. I think women need to remember this, its something that boomer and Xer femenist women practiced.
This!!! All of this is exactly what so many of us need to read right now:
"I exist right now. In soft light and bad moods and bloated mornings and dresses I don’t owe to anyone’s aesthetic. I will not apologise for being in process. I will not edit myself into someone’s fantasy of who I could become if I just hated myself a little harder."
And you wrote it in a way that it can be digested and understood. I hope the people in the back are listening.
Beautifully written. I’m thrilled that you’ve figured this out at such a young age. Most of us don’t even start to realize the propaganda we’ve fallen victim to until our 50s.
Excellent. It’s true, we don’t even realise it’s happening when we’re young…and so the brain-washing begins 😢

The media creates an unattainable image of the female body. Then they wonder why girls suffer through mental issues.
100%! And it starts so young as well😅
Exactly!
