Feminism impacts me for a lot of reasons. One of the reasons would probably be body image. I have been through a lot of ups and downs with my body image throughout my life so far. Starting with an awkward age and feeling uncomfortable in my body as most people do. I didn’t like the way I filled out as none of my friends in school did until later in high school. I had issues with my back and most of the time had to wear more clothing than others during sports to support everything and other girls fantasized being in my position. I would tell them often that I wouldn’t wish the back pain I had on anyone. They didn’t understand and still don’t understand why and how my situation might impact my life. Most people were just blinded by the fact of having curves because of the trends in pop culture.
