Ask Uncut – Our bodies are not trends

Hey Lifers,Producer Keeshia is filling in today because Laura is a bit busy doing something kind of important… just getting married!! Britt might be hesitant about sharing a bed with Keeshia after the last encounter at Laura’s hens.Today we jump in by unpacking the return of the ‘heroin chic’ trend. We talk about how society’s ideals of what constitutes the ‘perfect’ figure have shifted so much over the course of time and how it’s been left undissected and not called out until now.It’s really only now that more nuanced conversation is happening about our body shapes and how we need to unsubscribe from this deeply problematic narrative. Then we jump into your questions!1.    Can you date your ex’s acquaintance?2.    I constantly check up on my partner’s ex on social media.
