Eh. She's picking and choosing. She's not shaving her legs but she sure is spending time on the eyebrows. She's got flawless make up, hair done professionally.

I just don't get the big deal people make about shaving your legs or underarms. To each her own.

I have zero interest in policing other women's bodies, telling them what is or is not attractive, or insisting certain cultural practices are required in order to be "feminine."

I've never been a really hairy person. I had hairy legs/shins, below my knees when I was in second or third grade, and an older student made a comment about them that really gave me a complex. I barely had any hair under my arms until I was close to 30, and it still doesn't really grow.

Now my daughters and my niece...totally different story. They are HAIRY, lol. The niece and youngest daughter don't give a flying fig what anyone thinks about their "hairyness". They say it's genetic from their father and grandfather. They were/are fuzzy!

It's their business, it's natural. And while it may not be attractive to some, others don't care.

But I'm still the winner! They lied! They cheated! They stole the election!

I don’t shave my legs, I have like a whole 15 hairs that grow on my legs so I just pluck them, lol. I’m really a to each their own type person. I don’t care if someone wears make up or not, sports perfectly coiffed hair or messy bun, wears yoga pants or a dress. So I say more power to her. BUT I do find it amusingly perplexing when someone, for example, Wendy Williams, talks about loving oneself as they are, yet has done so much to alter their natural appearance.

Doesn’t everyone pick and choose? 🤷‍♀️

Seems more like a social media attention grabber than a statement of true self love.
