I had many problems with myself. I wanted to be perfect. My biggest problem was my vulva. I thought my inner labia were too long. I've gone crazy and felt so ugly with it and wanted to finally undergo labiaplasty. A few weeks later I met my first boyfriend who helped me to accept myself and feel more comfortable. Then I started Burlesque and understood how gorgeous every body is in it’s own way. I decided against a surgery. Even though I'm still not satisfied with my body, I try and learn to love myself more. Don't let you influence by media, who wants to dictate us what perfection is. We are all perfect, just as we are.
