A Poem for Soft Tummy Girls 🫀
It was believed that the most beautiful women, goddesses, were to have fuller figures and round faces. Look at any statue of Aphrodite and she has a tummy, round cheeks, and often a softer double chin 🫀 The goddess in the first slide was exactly that, a goddess, rolls and thighs, and all 🥰 #godd

Prickly Cactus Poem 🌵 🤍
