Yet another friend today telling me she hates this weather as she has “awful knees” and she doesn’t like displaying them in shorts/skirts.
I must have seen thousands, nay, millions of women’s knees in my lifetime - fat ones, skinny ones, young ones, old ones, knobbly ones, muscly ones, the full range - and never once have I thought “gosh that woman has horrible looking knees”.
Is this a thing now? Should I be worried about the state of my knees? I sort of thought they were one body part immune from scrutiny or criticism - after all, they’re a pretty freaky thing when you think about it. Just a patella hovering in a bunch of cartilage (ewww).
