This is a picture of a woman.



This is a picture of a woman, a female body. This picture isn’t vile, evil, or disgusting. This picture is beautiful, and so is this person. This picture isn’t vulgar, pornographic or ugly.  

This woman can bear children if she chooses. She can also finish college and start a career. This woman can marry her high school sweetheart and become a mom. Her breasts can help feed her children; her hips are a great place to rest a baby while she screws the cap on the baby food. Did I mention that her high school sweetheart may also be a beautiful woman?

This person decided she wanted to take a picture of herself on a day when she felt beautiful. Maybe it is for a friend, or a lover, or just to remind her of the perfection of youth.

This picture doesn’t make her evil, or stupid, or a whore.
This picture doesn’t hurt you.
This picture is a person, just like us.
