"I think the hardest part about dressing for the body that I have was feeling like I HAD to cover up in order to be respectful. I have always been hypersexualized due to having a double D cup. While to me that means that finding a shirt that fits right is gonna be a nightmare, to other people it looks like I want all the male attention in the world, and IT SUCKED. I started by telling myself that my body and the way it is shaped is NOT inherently slutty or sexual. It's the way people have chosen to view women that is the problem. So I started to dress the way that flattered my shape and my own aesthetic. Never been happier."
