'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

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.
