~What If?~
What if I looked like what every boy wanted me to look like? What if I looked like the perfect girl? Long soft hair, soft skin, no body hair, big boobes, small waist, and big ass. Oh yes, the boys can't get enough of the ass! They want us to weigh no more than 110lbs but still have a curvy figure. Boys want our waist practically three inches, so now we're starving ourselves. Constantly looking in the mirror wondering what is wrong with our bodies.
What if we said fuck you? What if we said fuck your ridiculous requests? How about girls start making their own requirements? You have to be at least 6'0 and your dick needs to be at least seven inches. You have to have good style and have abs. Oh yes, the girls can't get enough of the abs! But now the boys are constantly working out without eating. The boys are starving themselves and they are constantly looking in the mirror wondering why they aren't good enough.
See now we are stuck in a never ending loop of insecurities. No one can escape because no one wants to be left out. Now doesn't that make you feel like an object? Now if you have all of those and you fit the beauty standard that society has, then great. But if you are one of those people who put others down for not looking perfect then fuck you. I hope you feel miserable you bitch.
