#EverydayLookism

Story 933

I come from a culture that sees curvy women as most beautiful. I am naturally thin and muscular. My aunts consistently comment to my mom that I need to gain weight. When I ask my mom to either defend me to my aunts or stop relaying these comments to me, she takes their side and says it’s out of concern. I wish she would stand up for me or not tell me what my aunts said.
