Photography is the greatest lie ever shown, so please don't blame the models, they're just tall girls who are annoyed with sleeve-length too :flowerforyou:

The camera should be tarred and feathered.

I always wanted to be dainty. I've never been dainty a day in my life.

I definitely have felt this way most of my life.

We all know that we're supposed to love ourselves no matter our shape or size, but when you have been living in a world telling you your entire life that you are too tall or too wide, you're going to more likely than not, believe it. Everyone from friends, family, and therapist will try to tell you to have confidence and give yourself positive messaging around your body image, but this seems like a fruitless effort when you are continuing to receive the input of negative messages about your body from society.

It feels like a losing battle for me personally because there is more external negative input than positive internal input. You just can't compete with the vast amount of information being externally thrown at you about how you should look.

For me connecting with a group like this and hearing that other people are experiencing similar feelings is what helps the most. Stay strong!
