Re body image. I still struggle with the fact that my petite curves 'bought' me far more approval from many males than my intelligence and character. On the plus side, those who looked beyond my doll-like exterior, were appreciated all the more. I try not to feel contempt toward those individuals who persist in thinking of women as portable mattresses, pretties for their pleasure, regrettably remnants of my youthful rage persist. Enlightenment on this matter still eludes me.
Sigh. I always wanted to be admired for my, um, physical attributes. There was a time when there was a whole lot of me, much more than necessary and way more than anybody in their right mind would admire. Now I'm bony and almost not there.
Actually, I wouldn't have minded being admired for my mind, either, what little of it was educated enough to admire.
As for money? When there's a $1K surplus in checking, I'm comfortable. It doesn't take a whole lot to please me.
