Re: Personal question: do you have a good relationship with your parents?

A lot of mothers have that internalized misogyny programmed into them, sadly. My mother also harped on my weight from the time I was a pre-teen up until I moved out. I, too, was taller and more heavily built than her. My bra size was larger than hers from age 13 onwards, and she just couldn't believe that was right. She didn't want me wearing bright colors because that brought too much attention to the fact that I was chubbier than she'd like. But I couldn't wear black because that was too depressing. No baggy clothing because that made me look fatter, but if the clothing was too tight then it revealed that I didn't have a defined waistline. If she had it her way, I would've worn pastels and vertical stripes (to help me look thinner!) all my life. I was on a diet from age 10 onwards. Only me, everyone else in the house was allowed the regular version of foods, I got diet this and fat free that, or nothing if she deemed it too fattening. My dad (who ate junk food never saw a vegetable he liked) didn't speak up about this at all.

I didn't develop an eating disorder, surprisingly enough. But not for lack of pressure on my mother's part. She was only trying to help me, because it's not healthy to be fat, and of course, girls should be slender. She thought I should've been grateful for her help.
