presssure to be “hot and sexy” as a 20 year old woman
I want to share something that i’ve been experiencing the past couple months. As the title says, I am a 20 yr old woman and next month i will be 21. Throughout my teen hood i did not have any fun or experiences, i was hiding my face a lot with masks and i don’t want the same regrets in my 20s. As the countdown comes for my birthday i have this internal pressure that i need to be fit and confident like the people on social media/tiktok, Otherwise I feel so much FOMO, or i am “wasting my looks” or wasting my youth and i feel so miserable about that. It’s like im scared for the ticking bomb. I am even spending my birthday solo in las vegas for the “experience”, I hope that it’s fun but yeah.
