My Body by Emily Ratajkowski
4.0
"I will no longer blame myself for having become small and digestible for you. I have grown past shame and fear and into anger. It is ugly, but I am not scared of it. I want more for myself. I will proclaim all of my mistakes and contradictions, for all the women who cannot do so, for all the women we’ve called muses without learning their names, whose silence we mistook for consent. I stood on their shoulders to get here."
In this book, emily ratajkowski, also known as emrata, does a wonderfully vulnerable study of her own life, the objectification of her body, the multiple ways in which her body has been violated before and during her career, and also the blessings her own body has given her. I believe so many women can relate with this book even if your life looks nothing like that of emily's, because one fact remains true: we have all been taught from a young age to objetify our own bodies, we have all suffered under the male gaze, we all know what it's like to want control in a mans world. Ratajkowski is an excellent writter and i applaud her for this book. I hope to see more from her in the near future.
