a lot of "beauty" body things viscerally freak me out... i always feel like filled lips are going to explode and splatter lip matter everywhere,,, i always wonder like "what if that girls piercing snags on something and gets ripped out ouch ouch ouch" EEK
the absolute worst is when a girl with lip filler has one of those piercings that goes DIRECTLY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE LIP
i cant even act normal around that
im covering my mouth with my hand just thinking about it brooooo

some of the staunchest fat acceptance advocates are thin or normal weight girls who are coping with being able to internally regulate their body image issues

anyone who has spent time in eating disorder recovery spaces knows what i mean
"if i can convince myself its okay for other people to be morbidly obese then maybe i will start to be okay with my own weight which is significantly less than theirs"
and on the other hand i think some girls are almost like reactionary against fat acceptance because they know being fat is not healthy or attractive but they just take it to the extreme due to their psychological issues

i feel like a lot of girls (including me before) think long skirts are like too dressy, too feminine, too old fashioned etc but hear me out... theyre kind of one of the only longer garments that comfortably fit many womens body types
i used to think it was either leggings or stuffing myself into some awkward pair of jeans that hurt after 30 minutes or looking like lori lightfoot in trousers baggy enough to actually fit over my thighs 💀 but skirts are so low effort, comfy, and pretty
another problem with pants when u have a curvier body type is that even if you find ones that are more designed to accommodate your body type, they accentuate those features too much and u end up feeling kind of oversexualized when you werent going for that at all

gender/social justice ideologies exploit two things that are NATURAL in most teenagers and young adults:

1. separating identity from parents, can include antagonizing parents in the process

2. having grievances with parents behavior or the relationship, big or small
the ideology turns it from something normal to something that can severely damage the whole family if parents don’t have the wherewithal to put in a lot of effort towards relating strategically to the young person while bearing the brunt of a lot of negativity.

it’s not easy
no parent can be expected to foresee such a challenge while their kid is still a child. it’s only natural to make mistakes when the challenge appears resulting in the problem getting worse, communication break down, and often even estrangement

everyone tells you that transition will make you happy but in my experience, things like self harm, substance abuse, suicidal ideation, and mental health hospitalizations are rampant among trans identified people including those who have gotten hormones and surgeries
some of the only long term research we have shows that among post op transsexuals, rate of DEATH by suicide is 19x that of the general population

i thought the surgery was supposed to save them from that? journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…
esp today being transgender is a coping mechanism for people struggling with deep emotional issues. it’s a way to find community with others who implicitly get it. it’s a basket to put all your eggs into when everything else feels hopeless. what happens when body mods don’t help?

i seriously fucking loathe these people. you can't know the reason this child took their life. suicide is not that simple. how dare you use a child's suicide and frame it to suit your agenda? disgusting vultures.
makes me sick. every suicide prevention guideline advises AGAINST publicly attributing suicide to one cause. that is known to INCREASE suicides. think about how many times you see trans activist organizations attributing suicide to the same cause over and over.
they dont actually care about these kids. they dont care about these kids killing themselves. they WANT children to kill themselves, because then they can use it for political gain. they consistently do the OPPOSITE of what suicide experts recommend to prevent further suicide.
