GTG asked: What is the main message of your story?

I am currently in a relationship and my boyfriend he wants me to be materialistic and I am not materialistic. I don’t like to get my nails done; sometimes I bite my nails. I don’t like to get my hair done; I like to go natural. He does not like it, and he looks at all these models and singers – they give society what they want society to look like, and I’m not going to walk around with a big butt.

GTG asked: What would you like young women to take away?

To be yourself, don’t let anybody change you... To be themselves no matter what relationship they are in, no matter who is in that relationship with you, just be yourself at all times. Don’t let nobody make you who you are.

GTG asked: Is this violence?

Yes it’s psychological violence it’s almost diminishing you, making you into something you are not – that you don’t want to be fixing you changing you, there is nothing wrong with you, you are perfect the way you are.
