As I looked back on past July’s and landed back in 2016, I decided to reblog something in keeping with our body policing/body shaming themes that have emerged in the recent posts about swimwear and body hair. Also, it’s Wimbledon! I actually haven’t been following my favourite tennis tournament this year so I don’t know what the latest controversies are, but a couple of years ago people were upset about nipples.

My Eldest daughter is a nightmare when it comes to nipples. She puts on these amazing outfits then goes nuts if anything can be seen through it. She is 18 shortly and she does have an amazing figure but like everyone I know who in their later years say I wish I had the body I had when i was 18.
Trying to teach her to be proud of what she has and to embrace being a female because one day she will look back and wish she had what she has got.
