I haven’t been here in a while because I just have too much
going on in my life. Let me not bore you guys with the details. I hope you all
get this update because for some strange reason, I think people no longer see
my updates, the lovely Toinlicious complained about this too so I am hoping the
problem doesn’t persist.
Someone asked me what I thought of butt pads and went ahead
to say all sorts of negative stuff about women who wear them. How they are bad
women with low self esteem and how they deceive men with their ‘artificial hips
and bum’.
‘It is unfair!’ ‘It is ridiculous’. ‘Now I can’t even see a
woman with sizeable hips without thinking ooh that might just be fake’
Hmmmm.... Dude needs to chill though. I was tempted to buy
him a chilled Coke. That one litre bottle that has made its way back in Lagos
traffic. At least by the time he was done with it.....
Anyway, what do I really think about hip and butt pads? I put
them right where I put push up bras, spandex, artificial hair and full coverage
foundation. I use the latter sometimes to cover up blemishes on my rather temperamental
facial skin when necessary so I am not going to judge a girl that wants to fill
up her jeans or skirt. Am I ever going to wear them? No. I don’t see why I should.
Some people are going to say it means low self esteem, not accepting yourself
the way you are and stuff. Oh well, that has been said about makeup and artificial
hair. You do know you have a huge problem if you do not feel good about
yourself but I don’t believe all the ladies who wear them have self esteem
issues though. Like my brothers in the streets will say ‘All na wash’.
