bodyshaming (20f)
Okay so, my sister has a figure that's full and curvy, unlike mine.
Once during during lunch, my mother was discussing marriage, telling me in twenty, and that the "clock is ticking" , you have less time till your graduation is complete and other bs.
I grew tired of listening, and when my mother noticed, she immediately resorted to physical insults, saying that nobody likes a girl with the body of an eight year old, and that people would be on the look out for figures like your sister. (I don't lack in physical appearance, and have had many approach), so i dont understand her point, but anyways,
Hearing this broke me, especially since it's something so vague coming from your own mother.
I questioned her by asking "does a woman's body define her worth? Doesn't her intelligence and personality matter?"
Being body shamed by your own mother is so demoralizing...
I was always comfortable in my own body, and never had any kind of insecurities, but now, I genuinely feel like there really might be something wrong with me.
