#tw body talk

[punk-sharkz-zero]

i hate talking about dysphoria with cis ppl because they immediately clock it as body dysmorphia, and only as body dysmorphia. (i say only bc some trans ppl can and do experience both)

i can't talk about how i hate how my thighs make me feel/look feminine because they always say "but you look fine!" or "i think you look amazing!" or "but you should love them!"

and it's so hard to describe dysphoria, especially to ppl who don't experience it, or who don't want to understand it isn't dysmorphia

and no matter how hard you try to explain they always try to make you love this body you have because "you should love yourself as you are!"

but i do love myself. but not quite exactly how i am. i love what i know I can be. i love knowing that one day i'll have top surgery scars i can trace with my fingers and a scratchy beard from T. i love knowing that I can eventually do my silly little effeminate gestures without hating how it makes me look. i love knowing that eventually i can look in a mirror and grin at the man i've become.

but that's not right now. i may cry a little when a shirt doesn't fit the way it should, but i don't hate the body that makes it that way. I may feel a pit in my stomach when I realize the way that i'm standing makes me look girly, but i don't hate that i'm standing that way.

i don't hate that i used to be a girl but i hate when people still think i am.

i don't hate my body, i just hate how it isn't what it's supposed to be quite yet. could that make any sense to the cis folks reading this?

I am trans and I love my body, just sometimes it doesn't love me back. and one day it will.

A monster boyfriend would be fantastic.... Can you imagine him coming to your defense when you have a toxic parent? I'm on the obese side but very short. Last night......a parent called me lazy and fat....despite my efforts t olose weight for health reasons. Now, I feel too scared to eat.

I cried so hard, and wish I had some intimidating boyfriend that would've made my mom shut up and come to my defense. Also, I feel like monsters would not care so much about human standards of beauty. (Even at my healthiest weight, I wasn't like stick thin)

Oh, hunny, I feel you. I’m in the same boat. I’m so sorry you went through that. You are absolutely beautiful the way you are. Do what you need for your health but know that being skinny doesn’t equal being healthy. Please eat, love, because making sure you’re eating all your meals is a part of health. I know that a monster would love you no matter what and would embrace you entirely.

I’ve been through a similar experience and I know I would’ve loved to read something to comfort me so I hope this can comfort you <3

Perfection to Me

Monster bf x chubby fem!reader - tw fatphobia, toxic parent[ing], hurt/comfort, protective bf, body worshipping, multiple orgasms, creampie

You had been so excited. You had recently gotten your very first boyfriend and you were so excited to introduce him to your family and friends.

Of course, all of your friends had been a bit surprised when they first met and they were faced with a huge and intimidating monster. But in reality, your monster bf was the sweetest man you had ever met. He was protective and he cared for you more than you ever could’ve imagined.

And he proved it to you time and time again how seriously he took your courtship. How deeply he considered you already to be his mate. Not shying away from using the term regularly.

All of this just drove your excitement to the point where you couldn’t wait to introduce him to your mother. To show her you’d finally found someone.

That excitement slowly dwindled. More and more as the night went on. It had all been going so well. Your mother greeted your monster bf with delight. Clearly happy, if not surprised, by his presence. It was easily overlooked.

But then the comments started. Snide in-passing comments. Comments about your relationship, your weight, and worst of all your eats habits.

You focus on staring down at the table, trying to keep your tears at bay. Having been so used to swallowing down these comments without a retort. Luckily your monster bf isn’t.

A loud slamming of fists rattles the dinner table, causing you to look at your bf with a sharp gasp. From the corner of your eye you can see your mother do the same.

“Who do you think you are?” Your bf snaps, his hands clenched. Only barely holding back his simmering rage.

Word after word he had been tortured by your mother’s lashing tongue. He had no idea how you must be feeling. But after seeing the tears in your eyes he could no longer sit back and take it.

“Excuse me?” Your mother asks, eyes wide and partially frightened by the aura which radiated from your monster bf.

“Was I not clear?! Who do you think you are to be speaking to my mate like that?” He questions, standing up. Only making his form that much more intimidating to witness. Not willing to listen to any bullshit from your mother.

“Well, I.. I am her mother!” Your mother replies weakly, visibly shrinking back in her chair.

“I have known mothers that eat their young who are kinder than you,” your bf lashes out, claws sinking into his own skin. You wince seeing it, your worry for him growing. Not wanting him to hurt himself because of her.

“How dare you!” Your mother shrieks, hand clutching her chest.

“Baby, plea-“

“No!” Your bf snarls, head whipping to face you, and stopping the excuse from leaving your lips. His arm joining it to stop you from reaching for him.

But as his eyes meet yours, they immediately soften. He leans down, licking and nuzzling into your cheek in a silent apology.

“I will not stand idly by and watch as an insignificant disrespects you,” his voice rumbles into your skin as he moves down to your neck, scenting you. Marking you as his to care for now.

“Insignificant!”

Monster bf tenses hearing your mother’s voice again. Returning to his full height he glowers down at her.

“It is a mother’s job to nurture and protect,” he states simply, making his opinion of her treatment of you quite clear.

“I am protecting her! Protecting her from herself and from everyone out there,” your mother finally snaps. Standing up from the table even in the face of your bf.

Your bf bristles, needing to pause for a moment. Ensuring he doesn’t lose control of himself. After a silent beat he slowly walks around the table and towers over her.

“In this moment you are a far greater enemy to her than anything she will face out in the world…”

You watch as his words sink in. Your mother’s face growing pale and her mouth finally staying closed.

When he’s sure she won’t try and reply, your monster bf moves around her, heading back to you. He holds out his hand which you take without hesitation. Your heart nearly beating out of your chest.

It’s only when your bf immediately reaches with his free hand to wipe softly at your cheeks do you realize you had been crying.

“Come, sweet mate. I think it’s time we leave,” he says lowly as he gathers you up in his arms. You don’t even think about resisting, just letting your bf swiftly lead you out of the home.

You could tell your monster bf was angry. He was furious. And it showed in the way he ravishes you the moment you two get home.

As soon as the door closes behind you he’s plucking you up from the floor with ease and throwing your body gently down on the bed. Endless praises leave his lips, clearly setting out to replace every mean word your mother had uttered throughout the night.

He peels your clothes off slowly, despite the fact he was practically shaking with his restraint. Revealing your beautiful big body inch by inch. As soon as you are bare he pounces on you, showing how much he treasures every curve of your body.

His face nuzzles into your thick neck as he grinds his cock against your pussy lips, all while telling you how hard you make him. Not stopping until you come apart, dousing his length with your essence.

He makes sure to take care of every inch of you. Moving down to latch onto your nipples. Sucking and massaging at your supple flesh until you gush all over the sheets from the toe-curling stimulation. Your body spent but your monster bf not having finished with you, evident by the feral glint in his eye.

Taking his time, setting his own aching need aside, to slowly kiss down the curve of your stomach. His claws digging into your sides and loving how you fill up his hands.

Though his hands suddenly have a far better use as they spread your meaty thighs for him. He dives right in, stuffing his face into your fat pussy and completely smothering himself in your folds. His tongue devouring you like you’re the only thing he’ll ever want to eat again.

Fingers joining soon after, needing to fill you up even deeper as his tongue laps up your essence. His hand and mouth work in total sync till your body is shaking with the need to cum. His mouth sucks greedily at your clit while his fingers curl along your walls. As soon as he finds that sweet spot within you, you’re erupting all over his tongue. White dots briefly clouding your vision from the intensity.

Monster bf barely gives you a moment to breathe as he rises onto his knees, that look in his eyes only growing darker with each orgasm that overtakes you. His eyes rake over your limp form.

“You are perfection,” he breathes out before finally sinking into your tight cunt. You both moan as your bodies connect, your back arching as you show off that body that’s so beautiful to him.

He can’t hold back any longer as he furiously fucks his cock into you, bodies slapping together in perfect harmony. Growls and deep rumbling noises escaping him as your body brings him a pleasure he’s never otherwise experienced.

Together you two bring each other to orgasm after orgasm, never getting enough of each other. It’s not until neither of you can physically not move that you take a break.

“You hungry, love?” He asks as you two lay back on the bed, limbs completely wrapped around each other.

“Hmm, no. Not really,” you reply quietly, your appetite not quite having returned after dinner was interrupted. Monster bf senses this, his lip quivering as he visibly holds back a growl.

“Well, what if we change the venue, huh? You can eat off of me,” he suggests, a lighthearted smugness moving across his features. His free arm moving to rest behind his head while the other keeps a firm grip on you.

“Oh, well that changes things then,” you say through your laughter. Your bfs smugness grows as he shifts down and spreads out across the bed. Showing off his body to you. A body that’s goal is to give you more pleasure than you could dream of.

“Yeah, it does. You can eat a fucking feast off of me…” your bf says with a grin, all in order to bring more of that sweet laughter out of you. To have it tickle his senses. He’d do anything to make you laugh. He leans down and nibbles at your neck, causing you to giggle lightly. That’s it. “And that’s exactly what I plan to have you do.”

Monster bf doesn’t given you any time to respond before he’s back to kissing the daylights out of you.

How comfortable would Soldiers be with being naked?

Sephiroth: The most comfortable with nudity, though only when it's within his control. He has a natural view of nudity, the type of person who doesn't immediately see it as something sexual. It stems from being raised in the lab which left him desensitized to it. But of course being exposed without his consent and violations of his autonomy in any way make him uncomfortable.

Genesis: Pretends to be more comfortable with it than he actually is. He shares Sephiroth's belief that nudity is something completely natural (and beautiful), but his endless array of insecurities cause him to overthink when he's exposed around others. He puts on a confident front and knows how to act, but he's forever masking the thoughts racing through his mind—wondering if he's being stared at, if he looks okay, and if he's being judged, they never end.

Angeal: Extremely comfortable around people he's close with but- like Genesis -he puts on a front in communal settings like the showers. He wants to project the idea that it’s normal and that they’re all just SOLDIERs and everyone's the same. But deep down there's still that child in him who got picked on by the other kids in the village for being too chubby and other cruel jabs kids made. A small part of him is always just a tad uncomfortable, quietly wondering if he really looks okay, even as he tries to shush those thoughts and remind himself that he has the body of a SOLDIER and that’s all that should matter. But being around Sephiroth and Genesis makes him feel completely at ease.

Does anyone else look in the mirror long enough and examine your features to the point where you start to get physically nauseous? Just me? Ok

[anonpolls]

In this context, "like" means generally positive feelings, even if you're not your personal type.

Thanks, Anon!

They don't think your bust is too big or that you look bad because of it!

If anyone is ever making you feel objectified because of your bust, your f/o would make sure to help you sort through those feelings and to try to put a stop to the source. You deserve to exist with your body and not feel objectified by just being there!

So, no matter what you might think or want to do with your bust, your f/o loves you for it and supports you all the same!

~Belated Elations 💞💫

A little something I've been working on off/on that took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to finish fjfjfj It encompasses elements that personally resonate with me like RSD, self worth, and body positivity that I want to explore in the self-hug fanfic that hasn't quite left my head yet. But I'll get there~❤️

-Reblogs genuinely appreciated, but no pressure!! ❤️ Thanks for looking! 💘💫

Everyone: “The old She-Ra was all skinny characters! The new one has fat women, so it’s better!”

The new one’s fat characters:

Not fat. Not a fold or roll in sight. Is literally just big boned.

Oh wow, that’s pretty good- Hey, wait a minute.

Jokes aside, drawn pretty well when the artists remember. But she’s a glorified extra. So…

Was in ONE EPISODE.

Wait. Is Madame Razz even fat? I can’t see under all those layers. I mean, I know she used to be…

Adorable.☺️

That’s not even a real person.

what bothers me the most is how all of these characters still have slim faces. like,, that’s not how fat works. it includes rounder faces, fuller cheeks and sometimes double chins. fat goes pretty much everywhere, not just the body. i’m not fat currently but there was a time when i became overweight due to some medications i was on, and one of the first changes i noticed in my body was that my jawline completely disappeared and my cheeks looked a lot rounder. and i wasn’t even plus size, i was just heavier than usual.

also notice how none of them have fat rolls or big tummies or stretch marks. (okay, stretch marks aren’t visible through clothes obviously but glimmer was wearing a bathing suit in that first one and still no visible stretch marks) if spop really wants to showcase realistic bodies and empower young girls, they should stop yassifying fat people. you can give the character all these features i mentioned, and still make them look good! that’s the point of challenging beauty norms - realizing that double chins or fat tummies or stretch marks aren’t inherently ugly, we’re just told that they are.

and like you said, with the exception of glimmer, most of these characters are irrelevant to the plot. and even glimmer loses weight in s5 and she looks even skinnier in adora’s dream of the future. so… yikes. i guess little girls can look up to glimmer as long as they also become skinnier and conventionally attractive as they grow up. /s

and i know all this criticism might come off as nitpicky, but we wouldn’t be talking about it if spop fans (and the creators, to some extent) didn’t constantly shit on the OG for not being inclusive enough.

I'm finally starting to look like the inspo....

[potato-jem]

it’s just

me, my body and the ceiling fan.

me, my body and the november heat.

me, my body and the silent flashes of lightning.

me, my body and day old bedsheets.

me, my body and the dull ache at the bottom of my spine

me, my body and the blankets they’re both trapped in.

me, my body and the dark.

it’s just me and my body

alone in a room together,

wondering if they’ll ever get along.

[ifeelsick7]

My thighs are so big I want to cry.

[corpseprxnce]

Fml I need to be thinner.

Sorry if this is triggering, I tried to tag the warnings I could think of.

[princess-kurosaki]

the amount of effort it takes to burn calories should be all the encouragement you need to watch what you eat.

or.. to not eat at all.

[hyperbali]

So I'm getting orders put in for my Halloween costume, because I'm going to be Elvira this year (and Ferry will be Morticia)

And I'm going to be spending $40 just on boob tape

Which I would be miffed by

But I also had to remeasure myself again, including my height, since I'm getting the dress custom

And I'm a foot and a half shy from being as big around in the chest as I am tall 🥲
