DYSMORPHIC BODY IMAGE WHO KNOWS WHAT BEAUTY IS. CERTAINLY NOT THE MIRROR

What Allee has to say about this:
Amen to the mirror knowing nothing. I certainly can see looking into it as part of the process to make yourself feel fine about what you’ve decided to wrap yourself in at any particular time but those who rely on it for validation are heading down a doomed path. I don’t care if you’re fat, thin, tattooed from head to toe, whatever, unless your mirror has magic powers to penetrate your skin it can’t begin to reflect what beauty is.

I can’t see the detail of what’s on the floor. Some illumination please. And who is the little doll sitting on the teacup. Is she the inner child?

Love that Miss Thin is on her toes, posed, taunt and judging, and that her chubbier counterpart is relaxed, letting it all hang out and scratching her ass as she waits her turn to tweak who she is today.
