onefitmodel: lora-mathis: radical softness as a weapon, Lora Mathisfor sale here Growing up, I was told I was too sensitive. A crybaby. An over-emotional thing that could not control themselves. I spent so long hiding how I felt in-order to not be screamed at. I thought my emotions were something to be ashamed of, and that wasn’t just because my family insisted that they were. Every example of toughness that was presented to me was one of stoicism and stern masculinity. radical softness is my attempt to recognize the strength in my softness. I am not weak for being sensitive. I am not pathetic for crying often. Being open about what hurts you is powerful. Putting energy into healing is so strong. My softness is about forgiveness & refusing to find fault in my feminine presentation of toughness. It is an attempt to make amends with myself and embrace my tenderness, rather than demand it disappear. I love this -- source link
