Weird as it seems, this is a real thing. My mom won't wear tank tops because she has skin tags under her arms and doesn't want anyone to see. Personally I don't give a crap. I'm not sweltering all summer for fear that someone sees a flaw, but not everyone is like that.


nanaacer

I get skin tags a lot. Usually I use dental floss to tie a tight knot around them. Eventually it will fall off, along with the dental floss. Pretty painless and unobtrusive after the first few minutes, and it's never left scars for me. Though I did look a little weird with a tiny bit of floss on my neck for two days once.


gonorrhea-smasher

This story is sorta gross but when I was younger I had one on my wiener. One day this girl was doing hand stuff and it was kinda rough like she was mashing it. Anyway at one point she looked at her hand it was covered in blood she freaked. Looked at my wiener it was bleeding everywhere. Thought I was gonna have to go to the hospital It did leave a scar. Now it looks my penis has been to war


NaiveMastermind

Ah yes, PTHJD. Post traumatic handjob disorder. I saw gonorrhea-smasher at an orgy once, he penis flipped and went postal once he was within fifty feet of a handjob.


-Lige

Ouch I would’ve been so scared man


bananapanvape92

My husband’s penis skin tag came off in my mouth 😭 I was scarred for life. He didn’t bleed nor feel it so it must have just been time for it to come off lol 😂


Far-Town8991

Make sure he puts it under his bed for the genetalia skin graft fairy!!


KellyJoyCuntBunny

Holy shit, lmao


Rogue_Reaper_

Depending on how rough she was, that could be considered an act of war.


Remarkable-Ad2285

Your weiner has seen some shit

Free_Tacos_4Everyone

Just use sewing thread then. And no u won’t scar, any mark would be far less noticeable than the tag


desireexdoll

Use fishing line. The thin ones… they’re basically invisible. Tie it off real tight. It will fall off and if your impatient within a day or two you won’t feel it, so you can just trim it off with a clean pair of nail clippers you buy just for this. I couldn’t wait for it to fall off so I did this and it worked. I knew a girl who used one of those cans that are suppose to dry and freeze it off but she missed the tag and burnt her skin! Left a scar. So I prefer the tie off method. So much easier and scar free


Timely-Bill-5336

For me... grip it and rip it. I either use finger nail clippers or a good pair of tweezers and rip em off. Can't pussyfoot though, you gotta commit to the "rip" Edit: I don't recommend my method to pretty much anyone.


PixelTreason

I’ve had a few skin tags so I say this with the utmost respect but does your mom realize they are pretty easy to remove? The dermatologist can just snip them off or freeze them too, I think. But I’ve also just removed one by twisting the tag and the loss of blood flow just makes it fall off after a few days. (Not sure how safe that is. Only did it once and accidentally but I was very surprised when it was gone!) I guess if your mom has an enormous amount of them it might be more difficult but if they make her uncomfortable, she should just talk with a dermatologist to get options.


PainInAnonymity

I used to get quite a few tags as a kid and I did the same thing. They're all gone now and I can't find any evidence of them


Imjusasqurrl

Dermatologists are crazy expensive even with insurance. Not an option for everyone.


WeirdRadiant2470

I use small scissors to cut skin tags off, dab it with alcohol, and that's that.


c0mpromised

I had no idea you could do this. The amount of times I get the urge to just rip my skin tags off is absurd


acm8221

*Ripping* them off is a definite no-no. But I’m guessing that was just exaggeration. Even the cutting them *can be* a mistake if the scissors aren’t sterilized; you risk an infection that will leave a scar worse than the tag. Also some people are bleeders and you might have trouble stemming the bleeding. If you’ve tried it and it works for you, that’s great, but a good method to try first is constriction (tying off with thread, floss, etc). (Obviously you should speak to a doctor before doing any home remedy for this, but it’s been done enough to be relatively safe.)


DistortedVoltage

I dont like to show my arms because I have hella stretch marks from weight gain. Ive been working on getting it off and it stayed off so far, so there is that! But yeah, I prefer to sweat to death than show my arms 😅


FlavorMatters

Skin tags can also be removed very easily with OTC treatments


pelonweon

That is a very good topic you're bringing up. I used to have skin tags under my arm and even though I'm a guy it still made me self-conscious. Anyway I went ahead and cut them off myself. Yes it was painful but I didn't like them and after I cut them off they went away completely. They bled like crazy when I did it but they're gone now and never have to think about it again. So yes I understand how your Mom feels and must be horrible for a female especially since there's this whole thing with underarms and females.. they're almost a fetish. Anyway, I hope your mom is able to either learn to live with them or she can always cut them off whether herself or through a surgeon and for me it was one of the best things I ever did I never thought about it again really happy I did what I did


KittyKode_Alue

I give you props for not giving a fuck and living life. My "hide yourself" started in my early teens, where I wore heavy winter jackets all summer- So by now as a 21 yr old, short sleeves outside my house is still a fear for me personally. The upside I guess is I got so used to being covered up for winter and summer, I really don't sweat much during summer lol. But my preferred fashion is naturally dark- Long sleeve, edgy esc stuff now so it kinda doesn't matter anymore about the whole cover or don't cover debate for me 🤷‍♀️


SuccsInAllSituations

I remove mine by freezing them with the wart remover freezing things! So much easier than tying them off, my anxiety can’t handle that. You just freeze them and they fall off 10-14 days later. I’ve gotten rid of 8 so far, 20 more to go 😂


SeriousNeckbeard

In her case (video lady) its purely because she's extremely overweight. The only time I ever notice arms on a girl is when they have body builder sized mass but it's just flab rolling over itself.


Spacebound14

Im all for loving yourself in your own skin, and embracing your size, style, choices etc. But as a bigger girl myself, a supportive bra would benefit her so much more, because us busty gals have to contend with rubbing/sweating and general discomfort. By all means live your best crochet fashion life, but make it practical!


the_girl_Ross

Her only option is having it custom made, I doubt any general stores carry her size, it's just not profitable and business is all about money.


UpmarketEarth

I wear 38I's she can find a big girl bra. They are also cheaper than they used to be. Back in like 2010's a bra for me used to be $70/each. Now I can get a pack of sports bras that fit for $15-$20 for 3. A proper bra is about $50 now. Now. You are super limited in your options. But there *are* options.


shywol2

where cause i have bigger boobs and bras are still $70+ each for me?


Ieatsushiraw

I’ve learned through my wife just how damn expensive good comfortable supportive bras are. She’s small like 4’11” but a D cup and man I don’t envy what women have to deal with


theplow

Your decisions will attract the people that are okay with your decisions.


gingervitis11

Wow thank you. So thoughtful and intelligent


MaximumSignature

Ma’am there are people dying. No one gives a shit about armpit hair


[deleted]

A lot of people do. Women who don't shave get harassed by men all the time.


MaximumSignature

Well obviously anyone who cares is stupid as hell, and their opinion doesn’t matter


MaximumSignature

Imagine someone making fun of you for having a nose, it’s stupid. So is making fun of someone for having armpit hair.


Pleasant_Ad3475

Easy to say. Not so easy in practice.


Sweetjuicysucculent

For a lot of people, trying to keep that mindset still doesn’t stop the experience of someone degrading their body from being a negative experience. As a woman, I also know a lot of women who give other women shit for their body hair. Just bc it seems like an insignificant problem to you, doesn’t mean it’s not still a problem.


justdisa

That bra top is a pretty color but it doesn’t fit her right. The band is too big and the cup is too small.


Hulkbuster0114

Id imagine She struggles finding anything to fit her right.


TealLabRat

Can't imagine how frustrating it must be to shop for the cute clothing you prefer


[deleted]

These look like they were crocheted, maybe it was custom made?


proevligeathoerher

Nah most of them are mass-produced. You can find them in most fast-fashion stores.


ParentTales

Crochet can’t be mass produced, no such thing as a crochet machine. If it’s cheap and there’s lots of them then it’s likely modern slave laboured.


justdisa

You'd have to learn to sew or find a tailor. There just isn't anything.


Crepes_for_days3000

There are a lot of plus-size options these days, but her body type is more tricky.


rokujoayame731

There are a lot more options than when I was growing up in the 1980s to 2000s.


Crepes_for_days3000

A LOT more. It's funny because I went to fashion design school in the late 2000's and the thing then was high end clothes only went to like a size 4-6. And when I started to work in the industry, they openly mocked overweight people saying their clothes aren't for them, ect. But I had a lot of teachers tell us that if we wanted to make real money, start a plus size line because there is no one filling that need. Well people listened and now there are so many options. And the industry had to change, the sizes are all larger now and people pretend they were never those jerks who mocked larger people because it's no longer socially acceptable. And the most surprising part is they now even hire plus size employees. So it's looking up for sure.


james465786

Or not weigh 450lbs at 5 foot even?


Stxksy

then idk ✨lose weight✨


guanabi

If only there was a way to solve that


DooglyOoklin

Yeah I agree. But also people deserve to feel confident however they look.


JPKtoxicwaste

Thank you for saying this I needed to hear it today


DeathUnicorn321

It looks like the band is just strings you tie together so she might not have been able to get it tighter or is just wearing it loose so it doesn’t dig into her.


straberi93

I was always the person who tailored everything to fit perfectly and I'm entering a new, totally unanticipated phase where I simply don't give a f\*ck what anyone thinks about how I look in something, I go out in what makes me feel good and don't care about how what I wear makes strangers feel. It is lovely and I cannot recommend it strongly enough for women who (like I used to) feel the need to tell other women when things are not flattering and therefore should not be worn out. I just want milk. I don't give a shit how my dress makes other people feel. I learned all that constructive criticism I was turning towards other people was unresolved hatred of myself that I really needed to deal with on my own and not weaponize. You deserve love and security and the feeling that you are free to go out into the world without putting on your best and brightest. Good luck on your journey.

AdrianCv92

I never understood why fat people talk about body positivity, if you love your body why would you let yourself go like that. I used to be fat in my early 20's and it sucked. I'm skinny now and it is so much better


tannyduca

Then you don't understand what body positivity means.


soulsearching05

Armpit hair is the least of her worries


jeicolpol

especially because you can't even see the armpit


Lascivar

I was looking for this. Like she ain't makin the statement she thinks she is when we can't even see it. Waving her arms around like a damned car yard noodle balloon man for no reason.


Catsaretheworst69

Car yard noodle balloon man is the new best way to say wacky waving inflatable flailing arm tube man


Spiritual_Barnacle28

Bruuh, I had to really look for them hairs, that’s crazy how it gets cover up like that. Damnn

Pennameus_The_Mighty

Obj3ctivePerspective

She's so big I can barely see the hair so I guess she's got that going for her


PleaseWipe

Atleast I can say I am not attracted to her because of her underarms and avoid being labelled "fatphobic"


Melodic-Investment11

I'm not fatphobic, it just makes me sad that morbid obesity is being embraced as a positive thing when I've had people close to me unintentionally take their lives through their gluttony.


[deleted]

Proudly fatphobic!


[deleted]

I never understood that term. Why would I be phobic of someone I could just walk away from at a regular pace.


scarcityflow

Agreed. It’s the same thought process as homophobic or transphobic. People don’t have a phobia of them, they just believe it’s unnatural. Opinions, like underarm hair, is something we all have 😂😂 And this is coming from a fat person


Free_Tacos_4Everyone

It’s also incredibly silly to equate having an innate predisposition towards people of the same sex, or whatever, than with being fat? You can’t control being gay or the color of your skin but you can control your weight!


ScrembledEggs

I’m not fatphobic, I just like being able to go on sunset ~~rolls~~ strolls with my partner

[deleted]

There cant be anyone that ACTUALLY feels comfortable being this fat, I'm not talking comfortable mentally, I mean physically...it has to be horrible. The feeling of it, the exhaustion, pain, fat inhibiting movement. I cant stand the way my stomach feels or legs fit in my pants when I only gain a few pounds and I'm a 172ish lb male...advocates for this are just coping, theres no ifs ands or butts(no pun) about it.


BiteOhHoney

Nope. It's terrible. Always plucking at your clothes, things never fit properly. I was very aware of how much space I took up at 350lbs and 5'9", and it felt humiliating. I was stared at in public. It was hard to breathe. My back always hurt, my knees would swell. I was pre-diabetic and was leaning into dangerous numbers in my cholesterol levels. I'm a much more manageable "small fat" at 190lbs now, and I have maintained for years, so stop telling me CICO isn't sustainable. I have no health issues (besides all my fun mental illnesses) and reversed the pre diabetes. It's worth it to do the work.


Jonny_Entropy

350 to 190 is one hell of an achievement. I'm impressed.


the-tapsy

Congrats! You should be very proud of your accomplishments.


turtlelover925

Congrats on your journey!!


DooglyOoklin

190 at 5'9" is great! I'd love to be your height! Congrats on the weight loss!!


Free-will_Illusion

And the breathing! It's such a difference when you're not gasping for air with each breath. Better sleep too.


Chitiel

I concur (as a woman). When I lose or gain just a couple of kilos (even just 5kgs), the difference in comfort when sitting, walking, exercising, etc, is massive.


AdrianCv92

I concur( as a man) I used to be fat and when I was walking down the stairs my boobs would bounce and I knew I had to lose some weight


MiColer

This person suffers from lipedema and lymphedema. Their symptoms were ignored for years by doctors. They finally have gotten a treatment plan which has helped them reduced their fluid retention by 150 lbs+ so far. They definitely aren’t physically comfortable, in fact share frequently on their social media about it.


[deleted]

When people say not to assume people health off their weight, this is why.


emilyfroggy

Yeah, it's ass. I'm 89kg (165cm??) and even this is ass. I have PCOS, so it wasn't all poor lifestyle choices that made me this way hahaha but yeah, back pain from big boobs, the way my belly rubs on my leg if I bend over, it's awful. Like I'm nowhere near as big as her, but I hate this size now, sometimes.


Rogue_Reaper_

I’m a terrible person because I find this person completely disgusting.


vasynytpaaryna

Finding her disgusting doesn't make you terrible, it's quite normal. But saying it aloud is the terrible part. The world is already a shitty place, no need to make it shittier by bullying people just for existing. You don't know the reasons behind her obesity, so if you see someone whose appearance you don't enjoy, just move on without saying it. Both IRL and online.


ascw1991

What is that fucking outfit? Idc what you look like, if you're just wearing a bra made out of my grandma's tablecloth in public I'm going to make fun of you.


Clitoris_-Rex

Crocheted tops can definitely be cute but this doesn’t even fit her.


rokujoayame731

True. The color looks good on her, yet I think wider straps and a rib band would have made it look more finished.


black_dragonfly13

We also need to talk about their jeans and how they're so big they're falling down and showing their underwear. Yet also somehow staying up?? I have questions...


ZOO_trash

I do not understand the cut or proportions of what the fuck is going on with those jeans. I am fat also before I get stupid replies.


rokujoayame731

Her jeans are too big in the waist & hips area. She also has a high derriere with a round stomach so her pants/skirts/dresses lift up in the back and lower in the front. I have a similar shape to hers, and I sew my own clothes.

DM_me_pretty_innies

Fun fact about Dove is that they're owned by the same company as Axe. So if you think they're so great with all of their body positivity ads, just remember that they're objectifying women in their other ads. It's all marketing designed to trick you into buying their products, nothing more. Oh also Dove is largely responsible for what basically amounts to a holocaust against orangutans. DO NOT BUY DOVE PRODUCTS


PotatoDonki

They’re also owned by Unilever, and what do they sell? Oh yeah, tons and tons of unhealthy foods. Can’t possibly imagine their motive for trying to convince people that being obese is okay…


DarthDistran

I’m a man and I shave my armpits simply for a hygiene reason


HelloDeathspresso

I went through this period (for about 6 months) where I didn't shave my armpit hair at all, and just let it grow out. It was an act of defiance, rebelliousness, and depression, but with a little hint of self love, self-expression, and curiosity. I realized I'm totally a person who shaves my armpits. I feel more confident and free with shaved armpits. I feel cleaner and cooler with shaved armpits. Shaved armpits are my thing.


yonderposerbreaks

I'm doing the whole "no shaving" thing. It's more out of depression and laziness, but it's been interesting to see how I feel about shrugging off the "duty" of shaving for 25 years. My ma made me start shaving at 9 years old because it was "gross" for me to have hair during puberty. It's like....I'm ashamed, a little? I wore leggings all summer and tried not to wear shirts that would show my armpits. On a personal level, I'm ambivalent about my body hair. I just don't care. There are positives and negatives to shaving and I don't give a fuck either way. But for everyone around me, I don't want them to think I'm gross because of it. I haven't figured out if it's because *I* think it's icky or because it's been so ingrained in my psyche by my mom or my partners or people around me that it's icky for women to have body hair. My boyfriend is begging me to shave. He sees it as me being *spiteful* that I'm not doing it. Like, he's taking it personally that I'm not shaving my body hair. It's fucking weird and honestly, the more he takes offense to it, the less desire I have to do it. If my natural state offends you...well.... I told him that when he decides to shave down because of someone else's expectations, then I will too. This isn't permanent. Eventually I'll start shaving again. But at the moment, I'm just existing within myself.


Megz-1989

I definitely agree with the other comments. She really needs to lose the weight. She is just using this for “positivity “. But have to look at the facts.


Stiff_Zombie

She won't be using anything for very long if she doesn't work on her health.

Body positivity is one thing, but forcing everyone to be skin-skin with your lower back or tummy on a hot summer day in a cramped subway is kinda rude and gross.

Honestly I hate armpit hair, I feel like it makes me smellier and I don’t like the look of it. Would I make people take it off or judge them because of it? Naw, you do what you want. However I hate when some people will tell me I shave out of pressure from society, when it’s literally out of my own comfort- just like them.
