MODERATORS
"Everybody wishes their body had completely different (smaller) proportions, that's completely normal.
Everybody is uncomfortable with body hair, it's just super normalized to not say/do anything about it.
It's completely normal to not relate all that well with other dudes.
It's completely normal to react to other dudes being jealous of [insert masculine feature] (giggity) with a halfhearted chuckle, then divert the conversation."
Core memory unlocked:
That time period where I would take tweezers and rip out every last hair around my nipples while going through puberty. For like 2 years. Before I gave up and accepted yeti-ism.
Oof, I did that, didn’t want to shave because was worried it would be itchy and painful but couldn’t stand the damn hairs on my aerola. So I plucked those.
Recently found out about Lpi and am now working on completely ridding myself of almost all hair from my neck down.
Yuuup this was me my whole life basically.
