Friendly reminder that this is me, in both pictures, within about thirty seconds of each other.

I do not have a thigh gap. But if I turn my feet in slightly and stick out my butt a little bit in the right lighting, it looks like I do have a thigh gap. And even then, I have somewhat narrow hips, so it’s extremely difficult to even look like that. (What do you wanna bet that a lot of the thigh gap pictures on this site were created in a similar manner?)

And you know what? I don’t bother trying. I still look awesome in these shorts without a thigh gap. So don’t worry if you don’t have one, either. Please, don’t kill yourself over not having your thighs touch. Your body doesn’t determine anything about who you are. I promise.

please excuse the unmade bed in the back.
