You hilarious, getting all defensive because you read your own context into it. What part of not being able to wear standard pants made you think I was talking about some general “I was awkward too” nonsense?

I don’t know what’s “normal” now, but I can tell you I was the only 11 year old at my school with child-bearing hips. And I wasn’t overweight.

There’s nothing hard to understand about the fact that some people don’t fit into ‘normal’ clothes.

No school official called my body weird (though I did have a PE teacher use calipers to pinch the fat on my arms and legs and later announce everyone’s results to the class. When you’re a person with all your fat in your arms and legs, that effing sucks). The problem isn’t name calling. The problem is thinking that a standard uniform will accommodate everyone. It won’t.
