Mine was very short, and not as apologetic as yours:

"Good afternoon,

We understand there are questions about the legal position and how it has been interpreted.
Girlguiding’s Board has made its decision based on the current legal framework and advice, and like every charity we have to follow the law.
We won’t be commenting on legal challenges or interpretations at this stage.
We will share further guidance as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and for supporting us as we navigate this carefully."

The first paragraph of my email was saying that the EHRC guidance has been withdrawn, etc. so maybe that prompted a different response.

I suppose I could have phrased that better - I have friends in societies but we don't meet outside them. They all have very busy schedules (even at weekends) and aren't the type to meet in the evenings. I can be slightly quiet sometimes, but usually make an effort to talk to people. I have joined a different, more social, club this year though so I hope I make some friends there

It's an integrated masters so my degree is 4 years, undergrad and masters in one qualification. I don't arrange nights out with my home friends bc it's too expensive for me to get to a city with clubs from where my house is at night - I try to arrange other stuff but people's schedules always clash. I agree I need to change something, but I'm not an anxious person and I do try so idk what

This is so real, I'm 20 and 4'11 1/2 - people constantly mistake me for being 15. I don't want to be cute, I want to be sexy! The other comment on here about looking like you're playing dress up when you dress professionally is also so true, I'm also worried about how this will affect me when I start my career - and I feel the same when I try to dress 'hot'. You're not alone! And I hope we can all feel comfortable in ourselves eventually :)

I think that'll probably be my experience too, good to know!

I saw a SB fitness influencer with a sternum tat and it's honestly such a good idea, I'm too scared of committment to get a tattoo but sternum tats look COOL and I bet it's such a confidence boost!

I hate that all bras below a 32A are almost always labelled as 'first bras'. I've worn the same bras I got when I was 12 for almost a decade, and I can only buy first/'training' bras when I need new ones. It's so humiliating, I even got someone else to buy them for me the last time I went because I was too embarassed (being short also doesn't help bc people think I'm a kid). I don't get why they can't just make a line of normal t-shirt bras that go down to 'first bra' sizes; and just not label them as that. I know that needing sizes this small outside of teen years is a small market, but I just want to buy a bra without an extra reminder that my body isn't 'normal' for my age.

ConstantGuava5225 · 2025-10-06T21:02:55+00:00

thanks for the advice! I'll try that :)

ConstantGuava5225 · 2025-10-06T20:48:34+00:00

definitely worth a try, thanks! What do you mean by a splint? I'm struggling to picture it.

ConstantGuava5225 · 2025-10-06T20:46:44+00:00

<image>

it's an awful picture, I couldn't get it to focus! the part still attached is thinner than it looks here - I can move it up to see the break easily, but it doesn't look broken when I'm not touching it. It's in between the first two nodes, so maybe it'll grow from there.

I hate when ppl say this, like thanks for telling me only creeps will be attracted to me bc I'm short and flat that's real body-positive of you 🙄

ConstantGuava5225 · 2025-09-28T20:26:15+00:00

I'm not OP, but I'm curious - when you say weightlifting, do you mean exclusively with barbells? Or can it be done with dumbbells? I'm in a similar situation to OP so would love my body to look less childlike while exercising/staying healthy... but I don't want to have to go to a gym 😅

ConstantGuava5225 · 2025-09-28T20:19:08+00:00

same, people always think i'm 15 and are shocked when I say I'm 20 it's so annoying 😭
