when i worked as a bike delivery driver a few summers ago, i would always shave my legs so that i wouldn't have to use as much sunscreen, what with it clumping up all between my leg hair every single day, so that i'd be able to save a few bucks on sunscreen every week. however, there was this one hair just below the rear part of my knee on my right leg that would always grow out to be like 8 inches long, so every time i'd shave my legs i was just like "ah, fiddlesticks! you're too majestic! i can't get rid of you." so two years and one broken kneecap later... it's still there

By my seasonal weed whacking of my leg hairs. If it’s too cold for me to bare my legs i am simply not going to shave them I’m just going to wear tights. I leave little whiskers on the backs of my ankles because i nicked myself there once or twice and saw my life flash before my eyes. I read that Taylor Swift shaves her legs every day and I thought wow I could never be her. I bought an epilator once and the pain was so extreme it made me cry and every time I turned it on I felt like I was in SAW.
My mom told me growing up that I didn’t have to do anything with body hair that I didn’t want to. I resented her for not trying to enforce gender norms into me and tried to power through it and shave my armpits for a few years to avoid social ostracism but eventually I gave up. The skin there is so sensitive and I hate the way it feels when the hairs are growing back! I haven’t shaved them in more than ten years. Not in a bold political statement dying my armpit hair blue way! I use Weleda spray deodorant.
I was always jealous of girls I grew up with who had thick hair on their actual arms because i thought it was so beautiful like delicate little feathers.
I pluck my eyebrows hairs into oblivion and I refuse to relinquish control to another to thread or wax them for me it’s my outlet for my neurotic tendencies. I have a single hair that grows on my face now that I’m approaching 30 and I like to see how long it can get before I grow tired of it and pull it out his name is Harry.
I won’t get into anything else but I will say that I read in an Into the Gloss profile years ago that Emma Watson oils her pubes with Fur oil and I think about it all the time

"typing this out", instead of "this," essentially. every grammar lesson that's ever been taught since modern english came around will tell you that the latter is the only proper way to be technically "correct" in your writing, but it's always peeved me how whenever i put a series of words into quotation marks, i always want them to act as their own standalone statement with sentiment that starts and ends with said quotation marks, and imo the insertion of a comma that stands as a part of the sentence around that in between that serves to just completely disrupt whatever meaning i intend behind it. maybe if everyone starts doing this, the whole paradigm would be shifted!!!
also, long run-on sentences are pretty chill too
