Try depilatory creams if the hair does bother you, they even have sprays now.

I'm not sure exactly what your braces look like, but you have a right to be as happy as anyone else. and I tell ya, confidence and a great personality go far. There are people without legs who get married, have children, etc. lead very full lives. This is not to downplay your struggles at all, but hopefully show you what is possible.

And don't forget, what you look like in a dress is important (mostly that YOU feel comfortable) but there are zillions of things that you also do well and that the world truly needs you for. God bless. ;)

you are amazing. you've done something awesome here and i'm all sorts of squeebouncyhappy for you :)

i'm not quite that confident yet... someday maybe. i've given up shaving my legs too.. for the most part, unless i have a 'reason' to, i don't. it uses up many spoons.

I'm happy for you :) It takes a lot of effort to like, let alone love your body, and it's not something that many people can ever do.

If I saw you out and about as you described, I would think you were amazing :)
