This photo may be one of the most demanding photos that the American model and actress has ever posted. Emily, who is already known for being a feminist, shared the image with a caption defending the natural female body.

‘If I decide to shave my armpits or grow them out, that’s up to me. For me, body hair is another opportunity for women to exercise their ability to choose – a choice based on how they want to feel and their associations with having or not having body hair. On any given day, I tend to like to shave, but sometimes letting my body hair grow out is what makes me feel sexy,’ writes Emily in her essay that was published in the magazine.
