I want to start by saying that stretch marks appear on the skin when it breaks in the deepest layer, it can be by gaining weight or slimming, pregnancy or genetics. The skin stretches fast enough that it does not produce sufficient collagen to withstand the stride, the blotchiness arises, which at first becomes reddish pink, then it becomes a redder tone and, at last, it clears.
For many years when I was a teenager I avoided necklines because I had marks on my breasts, which changed in a summer suddenly when I was 15 years old. Before that I did not have a lot of breasts and used 2 bras to try to be like the school girls... I with my 'male' tastes was mocked by the boys. Until one day it happened - my breasts finally appeared and to my surprise, it was not what I expected. It grew very, very fast, leaving marks forever.
Over the years I have understood that this only represents that I have a normal body - not abnormal.
Any and every brand we have in our body serves to show us and the world how much we already live, how strong we are and how beautiful we are in the details too. It's part of our story!
In my next photoset (goes up in 5 days) I published without any editing in my stretch marks, completely natural and the lighting did not favor me to conceal them naturally.
When I received the photoset I asked to photograph reeditates it but when she delivered with half 'flat' boobs, I realized that it was not me and that I would be hypocritical after so many years not caring and appreciating this detail. Of course I can not say I'd rather have them, but it's part of me and I love every bit of the woman I've become over the years.
So this is my great outburst about my fellow stretch marks.
And the name of my next photoset is "
RULES WERE MADE TO BE BROKEN
"... nothing more worthy.
Maybe some define it as madness or even nonsense, but to me it's a victory to be able to show them so intimately and feel complete like that. I promise when the set comes out you will understand better hahahaha then mark the calendars and dont miss this!
A perfect body is one that has a happy person inside it!
