“You're too skinny. Your arms are chubby. Your ass is flat. Your torso is too long. You're too short.
Comments people have made about my body over the years. Comments I've made to myself over the years. I am turning 36 in a few months and I've never been more proud of my body. Because I am stronger than I've ever been - physically and mentally. Because I started to realize a body is not something to be ashamed of. The more we hide our parts, the more we feed into the idea that something needs to be hidden. Why is it scandalous for women to show off their curves when men feel totally comfortable walking around with no shirt on? Who made the rule that the male nipple is okay for public eyes and the female nipple is not? ~~~ Your soul is not in your body; your body is in your soul. Here's my soul, completely bare.” - Peggy Lin
