This girl has no scars. She is flawless. I am unable to think of her as "broken" or "damaged" because she has Down Syndrome. She is just a beautiful young woman, period.

No i was not shot in the chest haha. My scar is from having 5 open heart surgeries. Being on oxygen machines & a feeding tube & operations & numerous cardiac catheters due to being born with a serious heart condition.

I really can’t tell what her disability is. I thought maybe it could be her eyes? She has really beautiful eyes but I think there’s cold eyeshadow on her eyelids so maybe she’s blind?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this: these women are not flawless. They aren't perfect. I've been seeing a lot of comments about how these women are perfect, but that just isn't the case. They have flaws, just like you and I have flaws. Their imperfections don't make them any less beautiful, in fact more so. Our flaws are what give us true beauty, and we should celebrate that. Don't erase their flaws, because without them, we wouldn't be who we are today. All these women are so, so gorgeous and yes, they're flawed. We're all imperfect, and that's okay.

I love this but isn't it time we stopped celebrating differences and seeing these women in mainstream modeling? Would have been nice if, within the original concept, there were some males.

When my father had his bypass surgeries, out of curiosity I asked to see his scars (because I have many myself). My breath was taken away - it looked like he just had an autopsy, like a cross on his whole front.

These women are beautiful, fierce warriors, no doubt about it. But why is it only women who are considered less than beautiful if they have scars or other physical "imperfections"? .

i am currently recuperating from surgery that has left a 12 in scar in my leg. i will soon have a matching one on the other. i have had over 19 surgeries so far and my body looks like a road map. while i was still in hospital i made the comment to the physical therapist that i remembered when my body was so strong and her response was this; yes, it means that you lived a life full of activity and every deformity, scar, or imperfection from my disease means that is a map of my journey. what she wanted to know was how i wanted to end my journey - with a feeling of futility or one of conquering a challenge. that got me to thinking. i think i want to end it sliding into home sideways screaming, whoo-hoo what a ride it has been!

Why in the world do they have to be in bikinis? This isn't celebrating them. It's objectifying them. Can we just stop doing this to women?

I found this article really confusing. The Japanese art fixes what is broken and makes it useful again, and more beautiful for being mended. I didn't feel like these women needed mending, and covering their wounds, scars, stumps with gold didn't "fix" them or make them "better" if you get what I mean. Some of these women had no physical injuries at all, just disabilities, which is a completely different kettle of fish. I would have just liked to have seen all these women photographed in their already natural state of beauty, with or without some gold, and no reference to being fixed like Japanese pottery in order to enable them to be useful and beautiful again. They didn't need that reference and they didn't need to be sprayed in so much gold to draw attention to their deficits.
