Actress Leandra Leal, 41, pregnant with her second child, said on her social media that she had already had image distortion and that, when she looked in the mirror, she didn’t like what she saw.
The outburst happened so that other women could open up to dialogue and debate the topic. According to the actress, her memories of these crises happen after revisiting old TV work, such as the soap opera “Cheia de Charme” (Globo), currently on Vale a Pena Ver de Novo. “I’ve never started a job without someone telling me I had to lose a few pounds,” she began.
“I remembered how bad I felt about my body. In the not too distant past, I gave myself flaws, I even went on crazy diets, miracle medicines, crazy exercises, even though I was a thin woman. Can you believe it? “, she began.
“But that’s just 1% of the effect that absurd comments about other people’s bodies have. I saw problems where I didn’t have any, I didn’t feel good about myself and I expected dull and unrealistic perfection. That’s why I decided to share it here with the women who They have also felt this pressure and this insecurity”, published the actress.
In Leandra’s opinion, this pressure is also a form of control over bodies that can affect freedom. “The experience of life is only possible in this body we have, it is unique, powerful and deserves all the love in the universe”, he added.
