dear entertainment industry,
give me more representation and less perfection. give me more realistic and individual bodies, give me handicaps, give me acne and reddened skin, give me soft and no jawlines, give me fat rolls, give me tooth gaps and scars, give me imperfections.
i’ve caught myself eyeing my mirror reflection one too many times because of my jawline lately. been working out non-stop lately and even looked up various types of surgical interventions, simply because i’m sick of my side profile and my body. i feel hideous and im exhausted of looking up soft jawlines and being met with name calling and insults that make me feel even worse about myself.
give me a reason as to keep myself from breaking further into a self hatred by showing me that I’m not as disgusting and vile as I perceive myself to be.
i’m simply used to a shallow worldview.
