Before I took this class I was never fully comfortable with my body, how it functioned, or of other peoples bodies. I would think it inappropriate or awkward to talk about bodily functions, saw myself as overweight and unattractive, and be overly self conscious around others.
I have to say that since being in this class I have become so much more comfortable with myself. All bodies do things such as go to the bathroom, sweat, make noises, ect. I don’t think we need to flaunt that, but I also don’t think we need to obsess over hiding it. I now also see that the media is putting out images of stick thin, gorgeous girls and that is not a reality. In fact most of those images are photo shopped anyways. I am not stick thin, I have curves, but that doesn’t mean that I am fat and unattractive.
I am so much more comfortable in my own skin and much more willing to talk and even joke about bodies and bodily functions now. I think having open discussions, hearing other people’s viewpoints and struggles, and studying the subjects have helped me become more comfortable with who I am.
Unruly Bodies 
It’s funny how little we talk about bodies. It’s one of those things where you don’t notice it until someone points it out and then you can’t stop seeing it. We often forget that having a body is something everyone does. I think it’s cool to see the real life effects something like this class can have on people.
I totally agree with you after taking this class I have learned a lot about my body and how doctor views our bodies. But now I realized that every body type is different and you cannot compare it with others because everyone is unique and beautiful. In media the perfect body image is thin girls who already photoshopped and presented to the world like that. It’s the preferred body shape for a female and that effects young girls very badly. It ruins their self-confidence and personality.
