"man, i got some cellulite."
**this is a rant ive ranted many times before, inspired by that other post, but its just a rant. its not directed at anybody in particular, i promise.**
------------------------------
so yeah, i got some cellulite.
stretch marks too.
got a little pot in my belly. (c) badu
there are more women who have these 'imperfections' than women who dont.
women are not perfect.
neither are men.
neither is anybody.
when bubba said that none of us will ever date a model, he was fairly accurate.
ppl stay nitpickin about the natural. stretch marks are natural. cellulite is natural--neither means that u're obese or out of shape. lotsa that is in herited from our mothers and mothers and mothers. i think thats what hurts and unnerves me most; it ain't like a bad choice in clothing or a tacky shade of eyeshadow. lotsa this stuff comes with being female and to be told we aint good enuff b/c of that?
yeah, so what, exercise, tighten up the 'lite. holla @ some cocoa butter or lasers or some expensive cream for the marks. why? so u'll like my ass enuff to look at that more than u do the rest of me?
im good enuff to oogle when im done up nice & pretty in some jeans, but undress me, see the real me & u too good. gimmie a break.
im sorry that TV got some ppl thinkin that 'perfection' is more than the 2% of the american population that it is.
and hopefully this goes without sayin, but when bubba said none of us will ever date a model?
he meant men AND women.
sweep around ur own front doors before u go loose-lippin about my dirt.
and im done.
this post may fall @ will.
