The stress of the swimwear test
With the arrival of the warmer season, millions of people, especially women, begin to experience what is known as "swimwear test stress." This psychological phenomenon is most felt after holidays like Easter, when rich and abundant foods have been consumed more freely, and our bodies may sometimes fail to match the image we had of them before the holidays. The "swimwear test" is not merely a superficial experience tied to a piece of clothing; it is a true rite of passage that marks an encounter between our self-perception and the reflection returned to us by the mirror. The body, which is often the first vehicle with which we present ourselves to the world, becomes an object of judgment and criticism, not only from external people but also from ourselves.

The world in the navel
A few years ago, while I was heading towards the beach in Viareggio with my friends, we found ourselves in the city center, chatting and enjoying the walk. Suddenly, a guy approached us, with a beaming smile and a somewhat overconfident air. Casually, he told us he was conducting a university study on the shape of the navel, and for this reason, he was stopping people to ask if he could observe their navels. Of course, we immediately realized that this was just an excuse to approach girls, but his originality made us laugh heartily.
