Bodies are taught how to change.

Cut, measured, restrained, and shaped—until they become something acceptable, something desirable.

What feels like choice is often something we’ve already learned.

And at some point, it’s no longer coming from the outside.

It becomes the way we see ourselves.

為了被愛而改變自己

我們慢慢學會,要怎麼改變自己的身體。

被切、被量、被綁、被調整——

直到變成一種「比較可以被接受、被喜歡」的樣子。

很多時候我們以為那是自己的選擇,

但其實只是我們早就學會了要這樣做。

到了某個時候,這些標準不再只是來自外面,

而是變成我們看待自己的方式。
