plastic surgery
At five foot three, 120 pounds, I know I am height-weight proportionate. I am of sound mind. I work out. I do not have an eating disorder.

plastic surgery
Silicone DDs in the same body with a brain that produces legitimate, well-reasoned criticisms of the patriarchy is kind of a hard sell, and I get it.

Ever since I was 11 or 12, my labia have been, how shall we put it, enormous. Monstrous. Excessive.
man boobs
Gynecomastia, more commonly known as "man boobs," is the source of embarrassment and awkwardness for a lot of dudes. My little brother got surgery to fix his when he was 15.

I feel like a whole bunch of readers are about to start hating me, but what can you do. Oh, and also, this post is mad somber. Read on.
