As a woman in this day and age so many people are pushing "free the nipple" and ending body shaming. But what about us women who just want to express ourselves however we would like. Wherever we like? I am apart of the burning man culture. Where radical self expression ranges so widely. Pure full nudity is a form of expression. But the past three years I was in a relationship where even pasties were a no no and Lord forbid I show anything mid drift or any part of my chest. I wasn't allowed to go swimming in groups of people let alone go anywhere. But how do you feel about this.
When a partner is unable to be confident standing by your side. And you doing your thing and them supporting this. Then stop the relationship. I'm not saying every woman wants to express themselves this way. Or radically dress or plain and simple do whatever the fuck they want with their body. After all the time I spent tucking myself away I noticed I lost my spark as a human being. I let my body go not that it's actually that bad. But I stopped caring about myself to ease their mind. I stopped expressing myself how I needed to dressing. Makeup. Rainbows furs and fucking glitter. I will forever be that person. But now I have to rebuild myself to even have that confidence. I have a very long road to travel and to get back to where I was as a person. I am an artist and and I used to hula hoop every day. And go to the lake every weekend. I have missed myself. But I think I eventually will be able to be back to myself. What are your views of this subject. Are you confident enough to stop all worries of what your friends or family will think of what your partner is doing or dressing like or expressing themselves as? Are you confident to allow them to do as they please with confidence and stand and support them in weak moments. Or will you judge them and make them feel as if they need to be a completely different person than they are? Are you able to love them and set yourself aside so they can blossom or will you snip them at the stem and place them in a vase?
