I was very amazed at today's guests, thinking that they are the ugly ones, walking around depressed mostly about their facial features. Well, if they are calling themselves ugly, then I must be the most beautiful woman on the earth.
Here is what I "truly" look like and what my body looks like : I recently had a double mastectomy about a year ago, now I walk around with breast that was augmented from borrowed fat from my belly. And, I do not have any nipples, YES that is corredct, NO NIPPLES. I also have a scar on my belly that extends from one hip to the other - sort of like a big closed-lipped smile. As far as my face, I have deep black spots that even make-up can't conceal. One day, while in the mall a small child asked me if bees has stung my face and asked if it hurt! Of course, her mom was red in the face, but I said it was ok, she's just a child. You want to feel hurt, just let a child voice their opinion; in public loud and clear, about someone who has visable flaws.
These women are being self-centered and have not really taken a look at the "other" world, the world where people are maimed and scarred to save their lives, but not for cosmetic reasons. What is so surprising to me, is that people who have plastic surgery on their faces looks worst than before they had the surgery. Keep what God has given you and stop trying to change yourselves to please the world, you have to please yourself first.
Lastly, I've never heard of this disorder, but I guess this is just another one to add to the books! What will be next??
I think you're being kind of rough on these people. There are all kinds of illnesses in the world and just because there is one we haven't heard of yet doesn't mean it isn't real. There was a time that people didn't understand that anorexia was an illness and being bulimic was even less understood than being anorexic. I am sorry that you've had to suffer from cancer and I understand you have physical scars and clearly you've emotional scars as well, but that doesn't mean just because we cannot see their pain or their illness that we or even you shouldn't have any compassion for these young ladies.
