How the fuck can we be confident when every day on the dating/attraction world feels like a fight?

Well, guess what! When you've had a body that completely fits society's notion of beauty, and then go all the way to the other side of the spectrum, you see how fucking differently people treats you. It's not even just about straight-on jokes or shitty talking. It's about way less people noticing you and getting interested in you. It's about people loudly AND silently judging you.

Julian's pain is my own 😞

The most bizarre thing of all for me is that as fat people we're not allowed to like ourselves and led to believe people will never find us attractive, but we have to act like we don't care, because even if we know how ostracizing it is to have a body that doesn't fit society, we have to act confident. Especially women.
