#reshaping your body is an act of defiance and a way to claim your body as yours

[lewvithur]

weight gain as healing is a very good trope but i thought of an offshoot which is just as good, maybe even better

may i present to you: weight gain as re-establishing bodily autonomy

#bzz bzz #when you have no control over your body and its appearance #when that is all determined by external influences that want to keep you thin #reshaping your body is an act of defiance and a way to claim your body as yours #i think a lot about idle scree's video on what hunter's death means in terms of sacrifice #and there's a whole bit about the body as a battleground #i come back to it so often it drives me wild
