I have hair on my chest, bikini line and belly and love showing it off – trolls say I’m ‘disgusting’ but I don’t care
AFTER getting tired of society’s beauty standards, one woman has made it her mission to normalise body hair on women.
Nessa often uses her social media accounts to share videos of her own body hair, including on her chest, bikini line and belly.
In one such video, she explained that she’s trying to change the narrative on how people view the hair on their own body and other people’s too.
“Untabooing female body hair bc women are mammals too and it’s not sexual/gross/unhygienic/unkempt,” she wrote over a clip while dancing in a knitted jumper.
She then showed off some of the hair that’s on her chest, before showing some of her public hair and the ‘happy trail’ on her belly.
“Do women typically have less body/facial hair than a man? Yes,” she wrote in the caption. “Do women typically have NO body/facial hair? NO.
“The female species naturally comes with body/facial hair – sorry men, you don’t get to keep it all for yourselves.”
Although Nessa is open and proud when it comes to normalising body hair, she’s faced her share of cruel comments.
And in another video, she proved just how little she cares about it as she posed in a white and bike striped bikini.
One person wrote: “Men first I thought this was a man,” followed by a shocked emoji.
Another said: “shave that moustache,” as a third told her: “stop showing your body hair it’s disgusting”.
“Get over it you f**king snowflake,” is another one she’s received.
But her response to them all is: “Oh well,” as she shrugged her shoulders and ended the clip.
Despite the hateful messages, many were supportive as one person shared: “Sounds like a them problem,” to which TikTok user @nessa.may8 responded: “I AGREE THO”.
Another said: “they’re the ones who are snowflakes if they can’t handle seeing hair that grows naturally on somebody’s body”.
While a third added: “girl I love you sm and you have helped me sm with getting over my insecurities”.
