She had this to say
"Whether you like it or not it has become a norm, we are talking body enhancements, if I could have afforded it I would have done breast reduction when I was younger because I had more boobs growing up than a lot of people my age at that time and I didn't see it as a s#x symbol because when I was growing up I got a lot of negative attention for it.
Do you know how long I have been s#xualized? from very young age people make comments like ''oh they must be pressing her breast that's why her breasts are big''. Some negative things that made me feel insecure ;it made me feel unhappy and I can tell you that most of the women that do body modifications, many of them feel like that.
When a woman is insecure, it's always a response to some kind of trauma and a major part of it, men make you feel that way "

Not only men make women feel that way even our fellow women make us feel insecure about our bodies.
ReplyDeleteYou are right, you don't know how many women have bodyshamed me for having a flat ass. Even my own sisters. It got to a point I was feeling so insecure I was about to go for BBL but luckily for me I realized that God created me and I am perfect as I am. The money I have saved, I will use it for more useful things.
DeleteIt's well with our mental health. 🙏🏿
ReplyDeleteYea, sadly I can relate. Growing up with more than average boob size got me lot of male attention I didn't want. Being an introvert made it worse 😨 Thank God they sort of reduced after child birth 😊
ReplyDeleteI had this beautiful figure 8 during my teenage years that I used to feel very uncomfortable especially when Its time to do cloth shopping and it's a business dominated by men and the way they talk is somehow.So I just tell them size 30 and when I get home I will reduce the waist to my size even till now,most of my trousers have work done by tailors on them.

Hello iya Boys
insecurities are mostly self imposed . if you enhance because of what people are saying , after you are done with your enhancement , people will still talk.
ReplyDeleteIt is still not an excuse to go under the knife! Body enhancement/modifications only hide insecurities, they don't automatically disappear! Since its a thing of the mind, until it is addressed psychologically, the individual would never feel good/perfect enough. Hence more modifications and enhancements until the point of no return is gotten to.
