Thunder Thighs
My mom always said I had thunder thighs so I grew up my whole childhood squishing my thighs and looking at hers and my sisters and seeing that I had the biggest thighs. I did have thunder thighs.
Meanwhile my friends were jealous of my thighs
My legs looked like sticks compared to theirs
I never even realized until they told me
I would’ve never noticed, I would’ve compared myself to my tiny family all my life thinking I was overweight even though I just had a different body type
Why did my mom think telling me I had thunder thighs would be beneficial?
