Les parapluies de Cherbourg (Jacques Demy, 1964)
i will never feel like a girl. whenever i see a woman’s body in a sexualized context it feels foreign to me. e.g. watching french film, shot of a young woman from behind putting on/adjusting her bra, i think, “my body does not look like this”, and it really doesn’t, i don’t just think it’s the BDD. the girl is slight, with thin arms and a short pretty bob, and i think in my head, like consciously/unconsciously, like, this is what a girl is supposed to look like, and i am not this. i do not feel like a girl or woman. it’s strange. when you guys see other girls like, idk, models, or even actresses, portrayed in certain ways via photo/film do you identify with her? i never do. it is like they’re the pretty older teenagers and i’m the little homely girl
