As I was already the heaviest girl in my friend group, I perceived my body to be primarily a source of shame that needed to be fixed.
After everything I had internalized regarding my body for so many years and despite the lessons feminism had tried to teach me , I was convinced that my body was fundamentally unacceptable to anyone.
These issues were really important to me, but also quickly became difficult to personally embrace.
Still, even though I was making progress in accepting my body as it was, I was still contending with functional issues.
I wish I could have been a better representative for the spectrum of vulva appearances and been as comfortable and confident with its former appearance as I am now.
Description: Most of the reviews that I encountered were from women who spoke positively of the surgery and who noted that it improved their confidence due to the change in appearance of their vulvas.
