Emily Ratajkowski is confident in her own skin – and hair. In a personal essay for Harper’s Bazaar, the model-actress talks about the concept of femininity, and what it really means to be sexy.
Posing in a lace bra with her underarm hair in full view for the magazine, Ratajkowski says that sex appeal is all about how you feel, not how you make anyone else feel. Whether she chooses to shave or grow her hair out, ‘That’s up to me.” “Body hair is another opportunity for women to exercise their ability to choose,” she notes.
Ratajkowski also thinks that a woman has the right to choose to show off their feminine side and feel sexy, without being shamed for it… like when headlines about her being arrested for protesting Brett Kavanaugh focused on her outfit rather than her activism. “In their mind, the fact that my body was at all visible had somehow discredited me and my political action,” she adds.
