Glory can come unexpectedly. This is exactly what happened to an American woman who found the courage to show her real self to TikTok users.
The girl under the nickname thatgirlsare became popular on the social network TikTok after she began to upload her videos without makeup. Facial hair is clearly visible on them – a beard and mustache. Sir (Sare) – this is the real name of the girl – by her example inspires subscribers to accept their own body. The way it is.
Due to polycystic ovary syndrome, Sir’s body produces a lot of male hormones. They cause abundant facial hair, the girl explains. The course of laser hair removal did not help, and for a long time she began every day with a shave.
Sir uses makeup skillfully when he wants to hide his growing beard and mustache. She is not obsessed with either masking her peculiarity or shocking those around her. The girl chooses images according to the situation and mood. The main thing for her is freedom and self-confidence.
“Because of facial hair, I don’t become ugly,” she comments on negative reviews from critics. “No matter what people say about my appearance, I always feel confident and sexy.”
Most of Sir’s subscribers – and there are already more than seven thousand of them – support her. For many, she is an example of real courage to be yourself. Recall that in developed countries, the body-positive movement is gaining more and more popularity. Its proponents talk about accepting your own body with its nuances and giving up trying to fit in with other people’s ideas of beauty and “normality”.
Perhaps society will gradually come to an understanding: what we should be, should not be decided by the creators of advertising and glossy magazines, but by ourselves. Out of love and self acceptance.
