I have a really weird, unpleasant body shape and i hate it :/ There's a weird indention right by my hips, where my pants and underwear sits and it gives me a permanent muffin top. This has really killed my self esteem, and made me resort to dressing in mostly sweatpants and baggy shirts to hide my muffin top. Now, I'm not the skinniest person in the world, but my weight does appear to be proportionate to the rest of me. Everything but my sides and back look fine, and I'm happy with it. I think it'd really help if I got a body shaper thing to "rearrange" my weird fat deposits and make my clothes fit better, but I'm afraid of it feeling kinda like..lying?
I dunno. Its like, I want people to think I'm attractive because I am, not because a piece of spandex has forced my fat to look normal. I also think my boyfriend might be weirded out if I wear it, for the same reason stated above. He already tells me how good I look, but I really don't believe a word of it. But yeah. Long story short, I wanna wear a body shaper but I'm not sure if people would think I was "misleading" them somehow.

And me.
It's a working title.
Some people wear their hair a certain style to hide some of their facial features.
Some people wear black to make themselves look slimmer.
Some people wear heels to make themselves seem taller.
If wearing a shaper would make you feel 'normal", then wear it.
In the last decade or two there has been an increase of people using fancy girdles & bustiers for fashion. What they didn't expect was ... a resurgence of "classic" female complaints such as dizziness, pain etc.

Forcing the lower ribs together through the use of a corset can cause dizziness, pain and prevent oxygen from reaching important parts of your body. Compression of the soft tissue can permanently injure your internal organs.
So take caution.
And you might want to consider exercise as well. Sometimes that "muffin top" we all hate having can be removed by turning it into muscle.
Just what does a guy have to say, or what way do they have to say it, in order to be believed.
