| Unfortunately, people always have something to say about other people\u2019s bodies. It became very common to walk by someone\u2019s side and that person will not take their eyes off you because they have an opinion about how you look. In chapter 4 of Gendered\/Sexed Bodies, \u201c People who identify as women are encouraged to be continually aware of their bodies\u201d I can relate to that, because my own family who can spend weeks or more without seeing me they will come over and visit to say \u201c Anaya, you are getting fat, look at your arms, you are getting ugly, you have to do something about it.\u201d This makes me feel bad about myself and think if I am enough just the way I am, that I am not just a \u201cchubby\u201d girl.<\/p>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n <\/p>\n It all depends on how that person says what he thinks, what bothers you most and makes you doubt yourself is when a person says an opinion that was never asked for but not that, it is that they say what they say in a mocking way. I have tried to ignore certain comments, but to be honest, some of them will be going around in your head, putting you in a position where you just might end up doing what that person wants looking for their approval. I would say that as a woman, I have to stop looking at myself with someone else\u2019s perspective in order to feel secure and comfortable with our body.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Arms \u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hair \u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hands \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They are big, and\u00a0I don\u2019t feel comfortable with them if I don\u2019t cover them up.
