Nabil Shaban, disabled actor, writer and film maker, wrote this song/poem "I don't like my body" as a lampoon of an attitude I had towards my body, which grew out of the frustration of being brainwashed into hating myself because of living in a Body Fascist world, where disabled people are despised because of the way they look. However, I think most people probably feel unhappy or discontented with their bodies and may identify with this song. Mind you, I think its time I wrote and sang a song "I love my body and I don't care if it makes the rest of the world wanna puke"
