I was just eating a kiwi.
and some internal dialogue happened in my head that went something like this...
"Why is kiwi so hairy... it's such a strange sweet fruit..."
"Those little seeds always be in my teeth!"
"I'm glad I'm alone... what if I was on a first date and there were kiwi seeds stuck in my teeth?"
"Don't worry, it would be adorable... if whoever I'd be on the date with had a problem, no second date for him! I'd still feel a little embarrassed though... I hate finding out there was food in my teeth when I go to the bathroom but was out there for so long"
"Wait... why should I be embarrassed? We literally have teeth for the purpose of eating... why is that embarrassing" ![]

THEN
It occurred to me...
We get embarassed about SO much!!!! WHY?!?! They are things that are actually COMPLETELY NORMAL! Such as (from the perspective of a young woman)
Body hair... like... it grows on everyone... it's totally normal.... When did people decide it was dirty or ugly? Or the best one, unlady-like...?
Farts... I mean, I get it... clearly, but still... EVERYONE has to do it!
BREASTFEEDING. HOW. Why is this still a problem? Let the babies eat freely! We were ALL babies once! As long as mama is feeding baby, WTF is the problem!??
Crying. Life happens, hormones happen. Crying is literally a healthy response (generally speaking). Why can't men cry too?
Add anything else if you think of it.
