I'm just letting y'all know I'm not going to be putting myself in danger anymore to appeal to someone else's idea of what my body should be." i’ve learned to not let it bother me anymore and i really see it as a reflection of YOUR mental state and not mine! i’m just letting y’all know i’m not going to be putting myself in danger anymore to appeal to someone else’s idea of what my body should be 😌 — lemon (@thatbitchlemon) In the replies, people expressed their support for the drag star.
