The Internet Attacked a Girl for Showing Off Her Armpit Hair
One photo has provoked thousands of hateful comments, and the woman at the center of the scandal — Laura De, a Belgian philosophy student — is left to ponder one simple question: why?
Laura incited outrage on social media for daring to bare her hairy armpits in a photoshoot and sharing one of the photos on Facebook. The shoot, which focused on body image, took place in May, according to the Buzzfeed (the original story was published in French on Buzzfeed France). Laura and photographer Florence Lecloux teamed up to make a statement about “society’s expectations of women and their bodies,” according to the site.
