'Underneath We Are Women' is an amazing photo book which fights the stereotypes of women's beauty.
Created by Australian photographer Amy D Herrman, the book's main goal is 'to educate thousands' by featuring ‘100 women, 100 bodies, 100 stories’ and showing their endless diversity. In the book, there are no judgments and no opinions of others - just honest photography. If you like this idea, help Amy raise money through Kickstarter so she could print 400 copies of the book!

Physical defects are nothing to be ashamed of, but stigma and bias shame us all. And this woman looks wonderful in spite of it all.
I didn't even notice she had a missing forearm until my second or third look. I was like, why is she remarkable? She's gorgeous. Which of course is the entire point of this entire link. Well done. I shall now slap myself in the face.
You never know how strong you are, until being strong is the only choice you have. I have volunteered in a cancer hospital for 4 years now.... I see strength and courage all around. God bless those who fight the battle. <3
I can relate to this one... my scars are on my thighs too. But I've gone almost 6 months without putting any more on! (: she's beautiful!
When it comes to staying young, a mind lift beats a face lift EVERY time. She is the ultimate of age with grace.
Guess what? Women get hair in new places during puberty, just like men. It's not nasty, it's natural
All bodies are beautiful, YOU are the sterotype for shaming her for enjoying the gym, buying fit, muscular, whatever.
I kinda wish i could go au natural ...but im part grrek so if i left those pit bushes go i would look like i had two hobbits in a headlock.
So tired of these politically correct posts. As an average looking guy I have no problem with the fact that most people would prefer to look at underwear pictures of a male model with a nice symmetric, square face and a well proportioned body, and not at mine. So what. The fact that someone won the genetic lottery does not make them a more valuable human being. In this day and age, wobbling fat is not beautiful for most people. Get over it.
Im 67 yr old female. When younger i had a slim attractive body. I liked how i look. But now i dont even like seeing my body after shower so why kn earth would anyone else want to see my flab and wrinkles? I agree with you.

I think we will all move to higher grounds when we stop manipulating sex and sexuality in order to define who we really are. The human being is a beautiful array of incredible gifts and our body is just one of them.
