Major body image crisis :(

Hey, Veeners, I am in the middle of a nasty few days of self-doubt and bad bad bad body image. I have been poking around youtube for pole inspiration and new combo ideas, and I feel like I've been inundated with images of dancers with Barbie doll bodies.... and it's sucking me down. I'm not necessarily talking about teeny tiny skinny dancers, I'm talking about bikini model types, all boobs and abs and legs and perfect tiny round butts. There's more background to this, it's been coming and going for years.... but suffice to say that right now, I could really, really, REALLY use some links to vids with creative movers who don't have sculpted abs and legs that go on for miles. Any other short-torsoed, short-legged, densely packed dancers out there? 😕 I need inspiration but it's not healthy for me to keep watching videos of women with perfect bodies. Ugh. I hate it when I get all fragile like this! Normally I'm so well-adjusted lol.

I think we should start a thread that is our "bloobers and epic failers." I didnt post any videos for a long time because I felt they were bad and had mistakes. I just started posting some of my videos...but I have a typically editited out the 'eee gads!" parts. So I will start it in a new thread.
