I have always felt self-conscious and somewhat embarrassed about my vulva, mainly the labia (lips) as they're longer and darker than what's deemed as 'normal' and 'sexy' in society. The media, especially porn, completely distorted my brain into thinking I had a disgusting body and that I wasn't good enough for anyone, it made me believe I was unattractive, undesirable and worthless. I understand now that it is a completely fake and twisted platform for hooking and brainwashing innocent people into thinking the same stuff I do, for the eventual gain of profit. I have never really let anyone see or touch my body because of how much I've been made to hate it.

My current partner has opened his eyes to the truth on how women have been treated throughout history and made to feel everyday (not that men do not stuffer but I am talking about females for now) and he is no longer a slave to the illusion. The stupid illusion of this perfect (alien) female form that's only here for men's pleasure. He gave up watching porn and he feels amazing for it. He now considers himself a feminist and he's made me feel loved and wanted and continues to help me grow every day. I have a long way to go on the path to self-love and self-confidence but he has helped me so much. We are all human beings, let's stop pretending that we're not.
