hello hello! welcome back to another episode of Presenting...Genesis.
this week i'm talking about something kind of fun! as opposed to last week which was quite (literally) sober and serious. we're talking about tattoos. I have been getting tattoos since I was 19. To me, since I see them everyday, they are nothing to comment on. But this past week cooking with my family, they saw a tattoo of mine on my hand and immediately started bombarding me with questions: "When did you get that? Why did you get that? What does it mean? Did it hurt?" etc. I started thinking about the fact that I didn't really want to share, but it would seen as rude if I didn't, so I went against my feelings and I did.
So this episode is about the gaze, the need for people to comment on our bodies, and why we don't have to answer questions about our bodies if we don't want to!
Thank you for listening. I'm very thankful that you are here. And I am very happy to be here too.
