This Body
I grew up with people saying things like,
"Bukola, you're so thin!" "Don't you eat well?" "See as you resemble the number 1". And with nicknames like,"Bone straight" "crayfish" "toothpick" "thinny boko" and many other hurtful, hurtful ones.
I don't get it.
How does being thin affect me as a whole? Why should it affect me? Why do people refuse to see pass my figure? And why on earth do they jump at me with hurtful comments about my shape every chance they get?.
Can't they try to keep their comments to themselves once in a while? . I mean,Gosh!, I'm not a robot,I have feelings for damnsakes!.
What do you gain from making someone else feel...
