Hairy only!

I don’t mean blonde white women who don’t shave their armpits and legs and call themselves “hairy”. I mean girls and women who grow hair all over their bodies. 

Women who have hairy backs, hairy arms, hairy bellies, hairy necks, hairy chins, hairy knuckles, hairy feet, hairy butts, hairy boobs, thick eyebrows, unibrows, sideburns, hairy cheeks, mustaches.

Women who struggle with their bodies on a daily basis and hate the way they look because of something they can’t control.

Women who spend hours shaving, waxing, bleaching or just end up wearing jeans and pullovers in summer because they’re ashamed of themselves.

Trans women. Women of colour. Women with eating disorders. Women with hormonal disorders. Light skinned women with dark, thick hair. Disabled women who can’t reach hairy places. Girls who aren’t allowed to remove their hair. Girls who choose not to remove any of their hair and get bullied.

Young girls need to know that it’s natural. Girls of colour need to know that just because their white blonde friends have no visible body hair, it doesn’t make them “unnatural” or “gross” just because theirs is dark.
