I think you are beautiful scars and all. Check out my huge hip scar on my site. Scars show where we have been, not who we are as a person. I am so proud of you for being brave and sharing yours.
this body has been through a fair amount in these last twenty years. its been drugged, raped, starved, purged, hurt; over-worked, and under-paid. i have harmed my own skin and retain physical memories from these years of my life. i have the word "FAT" carved into the soft flesh of my belly. i have so many scars on my left wrist that i cant even count them. i have stretch marks and cellulite. i have a pot belly and plenty of body fat to spare. ive been battling with self-loathing for years. i hate my fatty body, i hate my scars, i hate myself. but today, i make a stand for everyone who feels this way. today, i show off the chubby tummy that ive tried so hard to hide and hated for years. today, i expose the under-arm hair i keep as a quiet protest against gender norms. today, i decide to love every inch of myself, inside and out. i am joiningTHE BODY REVOLUTION to inspire love within myself and hopefully within others. i love you all. and i love you gaga, more than words can say. you keep me strong every day. i will be strong without the schieße, yeah.
