So trying all different kinds of dresses and there's this weird phenomenon with women, when you try and more than three articles of clothing, there is no fourth, you just start crying. There's something about incandescent lighting hitting your fat cells that actually makes them multiply on the spot. And then you start to get angry and you ever do this move where you hit your fat hoping to pop it. It doesn't pop. It just leaves a bruise that you can't wear shorts.

[00:00:24]

OK, so I started to get upset and I did the mistake that all women do. I started to get angry about something on my body I couldn't control. Every girl's got a thing that she hates about herself. That's impossible to change for me. I don't like how tolerant that makes it sound like. I'm tall. I wish I were taller.

[00:00:44]

So talk to you like, oh, she's so tall because I'm this big on your TV and there's a stage, but I am five five and it just it kills me because it's not short enough. It's like, oh, my God, you shop at Gap kids yourself. Petite. No. And it's not tall enough that people assume I'm a natural athlete. I'm just this average five five member of the proletariat marching to pick a size seven shoe. Like, it's just that any time you tell another woman what you don't like about yourself, they never let you say it, right?

[00:01:16]

No, don't say, oh, I would kill to have your hair. I would kill to have your beak. I love your feathers like a. So I'm sitting there getting ready to pick out a dress for a wedding for my wedding, and I was angry, and that's not an emotion that you want to attach to your wedding.

[00:01:33]

And I started to feel sad and I don't know about you, but for me, when I get upset about something, I attach it to literally everything else in my life and it spirals.

[00:01:42]

It's never the one not about the drive that I don't care about who live in the woods.

[00:01:49]

Like it just goes like that. I start to get really angry about my body because it wasn't fitting perfectly into the right dress that I wanted at the right time. And I stopped and I was like, if I'm feeling this way right now, then there's got to be other women who feel this way. And so I'm going to say this because I wish that I had given myself this pep talk that day. Here's the truth, girls. Your bodies are perfect and normal and functional and beautiful.

[00:02:14]

It's always one girl in the back with a horn.

[00:02:16]

Like, what about me? Not you, Shamin. Following me. But we've been brainwashed into trying to live up to this Instagram Photoshop example of what beauty is, and you know what? Some girls do look like that now. Some girls do it like that. There's always going to be something you don't like. And we have to stop faulting ourselves for things that are very normal. Right. I've got to tell you one thing. He doesn't want to have sex with me because I can tell you.

[00:02:47]

Right. Well, 100 percent of women have some form of cellulite. So if he doesn't want to fuck you because you got cellulite, he better start fucking dudes because.

[00:02:58]

There's no other option until the robots take over. Moreover, he doesn't want to have that conversation.

[00:03:05]

A guy doesn't find it attractive. When you verbalize over and over how much you hate something, I tell you, you didn't show it to you. Look at that and make a fish out of it. He doesn't. The conversation he wants to have is the following. Let me ask you a question. Are you going to continue to breathe during intercourse?

[00:03:24]

You're like you're planning. He's like, then we're cool. Now holds up in court. I found out stream Iliza Schlesinger, elder millennial on Netflix now.
