You know what’s really lovely about loving women as a woman? Cherishing their stretch marks. Pining after the way their tummies look when they’re completely relaxed. Tracing the softness of their hips and that cute little pudgy place right above their knees. Gleefully and earnestly understanding how deeply comfortable women can be in their bodies around each other. Nothing is performative; you’ve probably had similar experiences and insecurities, which means you can empathize and love one another in a deeply profound way. Women know what it’s like to be women, and it makes us that more equipped to love women.
