“Bony knees.” Knobby knees, sharp knees, knees that don’t conform to some smooth, rounded ideal. For years, I felt self-conscious about mine. Felt like they were “unattractive,” “awkward,” and definitely not something to be highlighted. Then, I started to see them differently. To see them not as flaws, but as…unique features. As…edges.
Bony knees started to feel…strong. Angular. Distinctive. They became part of my unique silhouette, a subtle detail that set me apart. And guess what? No one else really cared about my bony knees. The imagined judgment was just that – imagined. My “bony knees” stopped being a source of insecurity and became, surprisingly, my edge. They became part of my unique look, a reminder that imperfection can be beautiful, and a celebration of individuality. Your “flaws” might just be your hidden edge. Embrace your unique features, bony knees and all, and let your individuality shine.
