You Can Choose Your Body Back

The relationship you have with your body is the longest relationship you’ll ever have.

Lasting relationships are respectful.

Full stop.

No real relationship is always happy. It’s unrealistic to suggest that you’ll always love your body. You might not like it. You might want to take space from it. You might want to separate from it altogether. And still, it will be your body.

If you feel at home in your body, please be kind. Treating your body disrespectfully will address nothing. It will make it harder to be in your body.

If you don’t, please be even more so. As impossible as that may seem. Gender dysphoria is real. Eurocentric beauty ideals are real. Please be gentle with yourself.

Body love is a prerequisite for nothing.
