We Are Responsible for How the Next Generation Views Their Bodies
<p>When I see a child running carefree over the beach in their swimsuit, completely unaware of their body except for how it propels them forward, I’m filled with such a sick jealousy.</p>
<p>I don’t remember a time when I could run that carefree, not just because my knees are getting creakier by the year. I don’t even remember a time when I wasn’t aware of my body. When I didn’t instinctively suck in my stomach or lift my chin further from my neck. I don’t know what it’s like to wear clothes and not fixate on where they cling to my body. I don’t know what it’s like to be so oblivious of who might be looking at you, even if it’s no one at all.</p>
