“Thank you so much for your comments to my face,” she captioned the poster announcing the new season on Instagram. Life and Beth, a series written and directed by the comedian, in which he plays the lead character. “You’re right, she is now more bloated than usual,” she wrote. “I have endometriosis, an autoimmune disease that all women should know about. I have some medical and hormonal things going on right now, but I’m doing well.”
Accept your body
With this confession, Amy Schumer, however, wanted to remind us that “a woman does not need an excuse to justify her physical appearance and does not have to explain to anyone.” An opportunity for him to plead loud and clear for “self-love” and “acceptance of our bodies as they are”; it is not so: “But I feel strong and beautiful and so proud of this TV show that I’ve created,” she said. And the comedian concludes seriously this time. “Maybe we can focus on that a little bit.”
