Anyone else have a love/hate relationship with spots/freckles/moles/ hyperpigmentation on your body as a selkie/therian/otherkin? 👀
I have these really giant benign spots on my chest, some small ones on my nose and jaw, and the rest aren’t really that noticeable because they are small, but the large ones on my chest make me feels super uncomfortable wearing semi-revealing clothes - v-neck shirts, camisoles, tank tops, swimsuits, etc.
But then when I look in the mirror not wearing anything, I’m like yeah those are just my seal spots. Literally all the art I see of selkies typically depict them with spots, freckles, some hyperpigmentation, etc, and seeing these images make me feel better about myself.
The one on my chest that bothers me the most that shows the most when I’m wearing anything slightly low cut I’m about ready to call a plastic surgeon to have it removed (same for the ones on my nose and jaw), but for the lesser visible ones, idk… the only person who sees em is me, but I hate that I’m so self conscious about myself, and I don’t think I’d miss em if they were gone.
