Women Are Sharing The F**ked Up Things They Did To Fit In At School

Women on TikTok are sharing some of the disturbing things they did at school, in order to fit in and feel more comfortable about their bodies.

The new 'trend' sees women reflect on some of the upsetting and shocking things they did during their teenage years, with clips filmed to the song Cigarette Dreams by Cage the Elephant.

One woman filmed herself sat in a chair, clenching her thighs and explaining: "Me in the fifth grade constantly clenching or lifting my legs up because my thighs took up the whole chair and everyone else's didn't."

Meanwhile another woman shared a video shaving her arm hairs, adding: "Me secretly shaving my arms and legs so that I wouldn't be called a 'man' at school."

And another person explained they would eat as much as they possibly could before school, to stop their stomach rumbling.

"This plan only worked for like 20 min," they added.

One woman said she even wrapped her stomach in bandages at the age of 13.

"Me in middle school putting lotion on my stomach and wrapping it in clear wrap and bandages," she said.

"You were only 13."

Another had a similar experience, recalling how she would always 'suck her tummy in' at dance classes, when she was aged just seven.

Shockingly, one TikTok user even said she had been so ashamed of her virginity that she had considered 'selling it'.

"HAHAHAHAHA funny thing is I actually searched how to sell my v," she wrote.

This is so upsetting. Can others relate?
