I'm talking about not fitting into a girl or, you know, a woman, young woman should look like and how you could be attractive to people in a physical way.

Like, I think I knew that I had...

I ticked all loads of other boxes, but I didn't think I ticked those boxes.

And that became a kind of thing where, you know, that.

Oh, my God.

It's so true.

I mean, you see, we see, we know that, don't we?

And, you know, with your own children, you just wish people could could know.

But and I think it's harder now because you're everything is about visual stuff.

And it wasn't like that when I was a kid.

But even just walking around where I lived and, you know, boys shouting things at you, you know, say whether they were calling you fat or they were... I mean, I wasn't really.

When I look back at pictures, I wasn't fat.

So I don't know what that was about.

Yeah.

And I think I suppose what it is is a sensitivity.

I think I was, I am, and I think it's a gift and a curse, sensitivity.

You know, it's a beautiful thing.

I'm so glad I'm sensitive.

If I had the choice to not be, I wouldn't take it.

But it does bring pain because you, like you say, you are tuning in to these terrible things and the worst kind of thoughts about yourself and you're taking them in and you're absorbing them.
