    This conversation was so beautiful but starting off with the KK comment made me so sad. KK did not make curvy bodies accepted, she made surgical enhancements accepted, and that's a huge difference. To mention her in a conversation about body dysmorphia is so invalidating. Especially with Mya at the table who has created a platform for embracing and caring for your curves using healthy food and movement. Besides that, this talk was amazing. Im excited for the series.

    • @marisol7974

      @Miss_SkiPp_8812 Місяць тому +4

      KK definitely is no role model, nor is she someone who should be viewed as a standard for any kind of natural body image. Her is not. There is the room for conversation about the body dysmorphia associated with plastic surgery. It's crazy how people ignore that part. It's all rooted in not feeling like your body is quite right.
      I do think she really needs to stop acting like the parts of her body that are surgery given are natural. Just own the surgeries, and start the conversations on what's associated with the obsession to so quickly and easily risk dying to change your body, by cutting it apart, or cutting into it and adding pieces in. And the down time for these surgeries to heal isn't lightweight either. It's years of pain, torture, and extreme situations where you can't use that part of your body for weeks or months at time because it's such extensive amount of alteration to the body even for just that one little change, that it takes months to properly heal. And it doesn't even last for your lifetime.
      Where's the worth it trade off? I don't see it. You don't stay that way for ever, it's expensive as all hell, you could literally DIE even if the surgery goes PERFECTLY, and it takes years to see the actual result and you could be in pain for the rest of your life even if it's healed well. Because of pulling, or how the skin or muscle naturally healed, etc.

    I needed this! I've always spoke negatively about myself. Last year, I finally decided to embrace my gray hair. It's still hard to accept because I am constantly told that I look old. A few weeks ago, a man said to me. With your gray hair, you look like my 89 year old aunt. Strangers think I am my bestie's mother and we're 5 years apart. But I refuse to dye my hair, so they need to get over it.
