I just watched Kevin Smith’s Trauma is Trauma talk. Yes, I’m talking about the Silent Bob dude. If you haven’t watched it yet, please do, whether or not you feel like you have experienced trauma. Spoiler alert: you have. Throughout the video Kevin talks about his childhood trauma, focusing on sexual abuse and body shaming. Of course, I related to the sexual abuse part, but the video also reminded me of all of the times people have commented on my chubbiness throughout my life. I can still hear the criticisms (not literally -- I’m not hearing voices). Here are the most memorable, the ones that invade my thoughts every time I look in the mirror.
