Because It’s All About Your Health

When I was 13 or 14, my pediatrician gave me a list of exercises to do. He told me it was to “Keep your bottom from getting so big!” I was 5’6 and weighed 140 lbs. I wore a size 13/14 in juniors clothes. I was a perfectly healthy size and weight. He did not say it was to keep me healthy, or to keep me strong. He said it was to keep my butt from getting any bigger.

    There are no words.

    I also love the way people think of children as sex objects before they’ve even grown into their own bodies. I can almost imagine him saying: “Here, start restricting your life now, so in a few years I can ogle you! It’s not like you count as a person, or like I can just go buy a copy of Playboy. I mean, in doctor school, they teach us that if we wouldn’t want to screw our patients, it’s a health issue.”
