I hate complaining, especially when ppl suffer through worse things, but sometimes I can't help it. Incoming vent
I really loathe my figure. Shake what your mama gave you they said. Well she kept it all for her self, so I'm stuck with my manly body: wide shoulders, no hips, or ass, and a waist that won't curve. And add some lovely chicken legs
I'm tired of seeing stuff like "real women have curves" and "guys don't like skinny girls, cuz they have nothing to grab onto" and using "the body of a 13 year old boy" to describe someone with my body type. It makes me feel unnattractive, unsexy, and undesirable. And somehow not black enough?
Everyone thinks its ok to make fun of the way I look, my friends make fun of my lack of ass, my ex tried to give me advice on my diet so I'd gain weight, my coworkers love pointing out how thin my legs are, my dance teacher had too many jokes about how I'm her only black girl and I don't have an ass... My mom's boyfriends told me me that I'd have a better time finding a boyfriend if I gain weight.
One guy said I could be a perfect 10 if I had a "bad body"

I guess face<<<body
If I see one more poem about the beauty of black women on tumblr that mentions "the wide span of our hips" I'm gonna scream.
I tried gaining weight, I gained 10lbs of extra back and stomach fat and a prediabetic condition. So I had to lose the weight.
I also hate when people tell me, "oh you'll gain weight when you're older/get pregnant"
Um no I want to feel/look attractive more now when I'm young, wtf?
Lets not forget all this scientific evidence that shows men are attracted to a curvy shape because it symbolizes fertility. Ok
