feminismandunicorns: I’ve been planning on making a post like this for the past few months. I originally decided to because I was devoting all of my time and energy to men. I felt like my mind and body deserved more self love. I’ve been growing out my body hair for the past year maybe. A couple years ago my rapist essentially demanded that I shave. And I am so proud of myself for getting past that. Sadly, tomorrow I will have to say goodbye to my armpit hair. I’ve had it for 8 months and it honestly hurts me so much to get rid of it. But sadly ballet doesn’t accept body hair on women.This was honestly more difficult than I thought it would be. I thought I appreciated my body, but looking at these pictures, I hated all of them. I thought of not doing it or making them more appealing. But I’m hoping that posting this will help me appreciate myself more. And with today being International Women’s Day, I found it fitting for myself to love myself and my “flaws”. And I hope that other women appreciate themselves too. I love all of you <3. Feel free to like this even though I don’t really know who would lol. -- source link
